I'm not saying that at all. I'm just saying I can't feel good about the video. In fact, I covered this in my original comment. It needed to be done in some way but I am not sure it's the right way.
I believe that you don't realize that you are saying that. But you accidentally are. The individual in question targeted and attacked people, smaller creators, that correctly called him out in the past. He abused his weight to hurt people with full knowledge of what he was doing. He plagiarized dozens of people. He scammed thousands of people. He lied to hundreds of thousands of people.
And you're saying he got bullied by Harris. You are (likely unintentionally) implying that many of his victims individual feelings of betrayal are somehow not their own and less valid than the scammers' stated feelings.
Even re-reading what I said, I don't feel like I come off implying that at all. There needs to be room for conversation on how to handle the situation without saying that the victim's feelings are less valid than the attacker's. If there is a better way to word what I wrote to focus on that then please let me know.
I think TheRtRevKaiser said it best "This last video felt like watching somebody’s life being dismantled [..] honestly the whole thing just kind of made me feel sad, I didn’t get much satisfaction out of it." and that's exactly what I was trying to convey.
And, perhaps separate from my other reply. I'd suggest editing to strike out the accusations of bullying. It's quite an unfair accusation.
Yeah, thinking about it, I don't I meant bullying but more or less an attack. Which is it, but a justified one.
