Le place for dogelore and classic doge memes to be shared has arrived. Wow.

Cheems, Walter, Cate, and other Doge-adjacent characters are welcome.

Youtube is absolutely to blame for allowing people to do this to themselves for attention.

to themselves

Nik has a choice here. But he is choosing fame over his health. I'm not judging, Evil Knievel and all of the jackass guys made the same choices. But do you lay the blame at the inventor of the camera? or MTV? Or the fans? Or the companies that commercials ran during these events? Where exactly does the blame stop?

YouTube takes down other self harm videos.

This is not different.

But also the guy's on a weight loss journey now or whatever so the timing of the criticism is a bit poor.

a choice

Is it a cliff's fault if people jump off it?

No, but the cliff in your metaphor is the food, and no one blames the food.
