To be fair, he wasn't taught what laws there are.

[Ambar]

In what world do we live in that we have to censor words like "sexual", "anorexia" or "depression"?

Edit: Yes, I know it's capitalism. That's my point. And no, it doesn't have anything to do with "people being soft", it's about companies who don't want to be linked to any real world issues and due to that videos with sponsorships or regular monetisation (and thus ads) cannot include such words.

The creators could of course decide to not censor those words, but they don't, because they want to make money.

I was gonna get away with murder, but then the prosecution pulled up an anonymous reddit post. They had me dead to rights.

[Bluehousesys]

If those allegations weren't real, with how his mental health was, I feel like that'd be enough to push him away from everything and solidify his disappearance.

[DjImpossibility]

If the reason for censoring out words such as "anorexia" and "bulimia" is due to YouTube guidelines, then the guidelines are fundamentally flawed. Creators shouldn't feel forced to keep such important topics out of their discussions in fear of being less favorable in the eyes of potential sponsors or the risk of being demonetized. These are serious topics that we need to confront, and the idea of censorship - which is also done across literally every social media - is deeply troubling. Life-altering experiences such as EDs, mental illnesses or sexual assault shouldn't be something we need to stay silent about.

I love how people are judging him guilty without a trial. The internet is disgusting

[rczarnecki]

Those accusations should be addressed by court not by reddit posts and comments. Today we can fabricate anything, and we as content consumers we don't have any means to discern and resolve that matter.

[yuishishido]

Sad thing is, we live in an age where allegations such as this wind up leading to accused being “Guilty until proven innocent”

[valkyrieregalia]

In this day and age, I must take such mysterious allegations like these with several grains of salt. It's so very easy to manufacture controversies and false stories about people either for kicks, clout or just to watch the world burn. With so many people he collabed with on YouTube, you'd think at least one would collaborate these allegations if this truly was a pattern of behavior Dave had. It seems to be the opposite where everyone seemingly getting along well with him with no apparent red flags. For me, it's innocent until proven guilty, and I'm going to maintain that principle with Dave.

Just because someone's mentally ill doesn't mean they have to be an abusive attention seeking narcissist guys, until given proper proof allegations are just that, allegations, we live in the 21st century dammit, practically anyone can frame anyone else for anything

[ExarchGaming]

You didn't mention that the poster had deleted the accusations and never provided the proof they said they would. The reddit account was a throw away and has been inactive since.

He did have one very vindictive ex that could have been behind this. You got some major information wrong as well, such as the Ricegum Apology. That was a skit where he apologized to ....casey neistat.

You gotta get your research right my friend! Especially when you're signal boosting accusations that have a significant amount of controversy about their authenticity.

[Greninja]

I appreciate that this video explains how there's no proof of the allegations being true. I'd only ever seen the "I was never taught what laws there are" memes and just assumed that he'd done some messed up shit, but I'm glad someone explained it in a way that wasn't just "he did bad things apparently". Great video

[slesperado]

This reminds me of the time when the second singer of Lorna Shore was accused of similar things by his ex-girlfriend. After he got kicked out of the band and had his reputation ruined, it turned out that his ex-girlfriend lied about the entire thing. I'll never believe these types of accusations unless I'm provided with valid and complete supporting evidence.

[shaneevan]

I remember when those accusations came out, the accusers had a very "youre either with us or against us" attitude. A pinned comment even said something along tge lines that "not taking a stance is still a stance, so please stop replying thqt youre neutral" and it kinda pissed me off. This combined with them being uidden in anonymity and providing very little evidence has lead me to believe that its a lie

[JerKKeR]

These allegations remind me on the situation of "Inquisitor" an Italian cosplay TikToker who took his life after cropped and out of context screenshots were shared by a minor who edited videos for him even though he repeatedly told her that he had no ronantic interest in her. And given Boyinaband's mental status it wouldn't surprise me if all of this made him be on the verge of ending it all as well. For as long as there is no fundamental proof or actual witness testimonies or a court case. I will wholeheartedly disregard the allegations as false and untrue and anyone who will tell me otherwise I will consider harmful and predatory until further evidence has been brought to the table

[kazulitheseawing]

Correction for what was said at 11 minutes, Boyinaband never apologized to Ricegum for the diss track. The "apology" video was a gag about how he apologized to Casey Neistat about "not having nice tats" considering one of the lines in the original song. The reason why the song isn't up on his channel is most likely because Boyinaband usually has his songs go on their creators respective channels, you can see this with every channel he's collaborated with on a song.

Love your videos Internet Anarchist, but I do wanna see you get things right!

[Halluzinate]

If you know who Boyinaband is, video starts at 13:00. Rest is filler backstory, this is a 2 minute video.

[wren]

The fact that the accusations were made on social media instead of being brought to the authorities and the accusers still remain anonymous to this day says everything you need to know as far as I'm concerned.

[DUSKvsDAWN]

Kinda sad how this guy's entire life was ruined by one single post as "proof", that was posted by someone who got straight up hostile if anyone questioned the truth she preached, and that one post even ended up removed. Not suspicious at all.
