Youtube channel SuperMega collapsing due to sexpest drama

https://old.reddit.com/r/SuperMegaShow/comments/15bagcq/lex_updog_shares_her_experiences_with_don_and

TLDR: Sperg gets too pushy for s*x, when the foid brings it up a year later the sperg's bosses aren't sure what to make of it. Foid melts down and writes a big obviously unhinged accusation.

I assume most of you don't know who SuperMega is so a little context: The channel was started by Matt Watson and Ryan Magee. They've got a few other people working with them now but it's still small, maybe 10 regular employees at the most. Lex (idk what her relation is to SM), the foid making the accusations, was "assaulted" by Don, who is/was the thumbnail artist and appeared on their podcast once or twice.

How are their fans reacting to this accusation that would set off alarm bells for any normal person? Well this recent post on their subreddit should tell you what kind of fanbase they have

Their editor that's been a core part of the channel for years has taken SM out of his twitter bio so he's probably jumping ship.

Highlights: Matt Watson (who has always been less funny than Ryan) "quickly went into lawyer mode" and called SuperMega his "magnum opus"

Matt and Ryan had a previous channel, called Cyndago, with their friend Daniel. Daniel killed himself in 2015. Matt has apparently called Daniel a coward for killing himself.

Anyway here's Matt getting the shit kicked out of him by a man in his 40's

What I don't understand about this is Matt's fear of this somehow destroying the SM reputation? Like this is 2023 if you fire someone on the spot for SA and take the side of the victim it's literally the easiest way to gain your fans trust and support.

Exactly my thoughts. Cutting a friend out of your life and seeing them in a new light after learning they’re a predator isn’t easy, but it’s respectable and the right thing to do. I don’t think they would have lost a single fan had they handled this properly.

I don't know what they do from here but it's pretty clear there needs to be some time for self-reflection.

It's 2023 sweaty, if you don't immediately fire one of your friends based on the vague unconfirmable accusations of some random foid you're literally enabling r*pe!

Jesus fricking christ these people have no friends, shades of the Night in the Woods dev's family cutting him off leading to him killing himself lol, and even after the accusations were never proven his family still saying, "Well, he deserved it anyways"

Digging for the actual line but I doubt I'll find it anytime quickly. But the TLDR was she "After his sister asked him to write an apology letter for the r*pe of Zoe"

Point still stands of all of his friends and family abandoning him the moment the accusations dropped lol

Oh, this was more G*mergate stuff! Sorry, it all blends together into one giant blur. Yeah, that sounds about right: a lot of crazy shit like this went down during the G*mergate era

That seems to not be what happened

At least, from this article.

That twitter source probably isn't the most stable of people.
