Looking at that WAN Show, it seems like a case of a legitimately psychotic LTT stan inventing a rape accusation to try and sabotage Linus and his business with a mass email to guessed LTT worker emails and any disclosed business partners. A whole lot of  has ensued. Just absolutely hosed up poo pooe. what a fitting  for a youtube thread

A whole lot of Idk whats funnier, anybody believing such a bizarre accusation or Linus feeling that the measured and sensible response was to publicly disclose his relationship history.

Jesus Christ, this just seems way too much of a panicked response, and putting names in there as well? Oof. Surely the first thing you do is call a lawyer?

Considering how batshit insane and reactive a fair fraction of the population has shown itself to be, over the last 2-6 years, I can understand him trying to get ahead of the issue.

i would not handle being accused of rape and pedophila well and i imagine that would be even more pronounced if i was a father of young kids. i don't think he's nailing the landing or anything but i sympathize about this infinitely more than i do most of his problems.

Idk the memo is a pretty good strategy to put out there. Any time some allegations pop up he can just point to that and say this is my sexual history instead of having to deny. It's gross but 🤷♂️

Gay People: I dunno, it's over 100, almost certain less than 300, maybe 170-ish? Wait, Mark, did we ever gently caress? Oh, yeah, I kinda of remember that. Anyways, refills?

Legal action isn't going to do poo poo for Linus. What matters is salvaging your reputation. If someone can make a youtube video titled "Half of LTT staff QUITS after Linus accused of UNDERAGED R*PE!!!!", that's going to have a more or less permanent impact on the trajectory of the company. This isn't big business world where "LOL we funded a genocide" is barely a blip, LTT exists in a space where reputation is everything.

True, but it only works if the accuser also has a similar reputation, some random no-ones ever heard of making very big accusations with no evidence isn’t going to do much. However getting legal advice could help massively by making sure he doesn’t dig himself into a legal hole that causes issues later on. If the culture at LTT is so bad that some person nobody knows says Linus did a bad thing and it causes half the staff to quit, well there were probably heaps of underlying issues already.

Most of the time credible accusers with plenty of evidence have no impact on someone. The accused just gets their head down and carries on as before a year or so later. See: Nick Robinson still being a big name in videogame media.

I might not have fully agreed with how out of touch he was about BMW‘s, but I can’t get over him putting the loving names of people he had previous relationships in that post? Does he honestly think it wouldn’t get out to the general public, and what that might mean for those people he just named? I hope no-one does anything dumb with the info, but I’ve also been around the internet long enough….

Honestly although he's a big doof, (assuming he's innocent) it's also gonna be extremely stressful to have an allegation like that gather momentum online so you can't fault someone for doing something weird like that in a panic to try and rein in the situation. Although I agree you could also just not include the names, or unnecessarily burn the first person you ever kissed for having been a teenage smoker.

Yes, quite frankly I do. And if some weirdo spams everyone in British Columbia about this, that's on them, not Linus.
