I think your arguments and replies were perfect! The RS *needs* SOMEONE to get through to him somehow. The fact was and is that many creators were exceedingly polite in their videos, and werent able do it. So maybe a blunt and slightly rude (but still correct) approach could've worked...I mean we all know it didn't work but it could have.

@Nightmare Strawberry Chic it was literally just an example to argue the idea that accusing someone of something they didn't do/are not, and actively "witch-hunting" people is not something new to society, just now being amplified due to the connectedness of social media.
@@pembrokelove I think he took time off due to issues surrounding lily jean and I am intentionally spelling her name differently than she does because the way her name is spelled is stupid and she and her mother are garbage
I personally believe that he could very well have started off perfectly genuine, but his ego took over and he became more manipulative over time as people responded negatively to his diagnosing other TH-camrs.
Great analysis. my two cents worth- he then was pissed no one was viewing, so made yet another video, using primink and controversy to increase his views. i think he perhaps replaced one addiction for another, substance for views. at the start he implied that he had a qualification, once he started on trisha the spot kight shone on him and all eyes were on him and then subsequently as he involved his mother, the spotlight shone on him. your right the lack of self reflection and change to the better was his downfall and also leaves his subscribers at risk from his pseudo therapy. also does he not quite understand that a lot (not all) of youtubers show a persona, as you say.
@@SleepinBee As a recovering addict myself, I totally agree with your comment. Chris always struck me as a recovering addict that says they are all good and are off their substance of choice, but have replaced said substance with another (in this case views/youtube, as you pointed out). He comes off as someone with the addict mentality still in control over their thought patterns, but have moved onto something else. He is not a recovering addict imo because of this
I thought that, but I did somewhat of a deep dive into his social media and I think he is just not a great person. He is misogynistic and creepy and has questionable views on things.
Kyle Maxwell dude he isn't just a mouth on TH-cam he's a role model, who has influence on all his followers, and God forbid if he gave my teen daughters a wrong diagnosis and one went and committed an atrocity to themselves or another based on his unqualified diagnosis... I would go for blood and I would bring the hounds of hell with me...
I found it funny that when he “quit TH-cam” he titled the vid “leaving the drama community” which was the biggest Freudian slip of all time. He stirred many pots for money... money is still the root of all evil!
Generic Name checkout “have a seat with chris hansen” he’s been interviewing all the girls and informed us the FBI launched* an investigation a week or two ago !
Chris is a content vulture. Circling over people in trouble waiting for an opportunity to get content. Breakdowns, accidents and even deaths aren't save from this mans greed.
" become an independent thinker because I don't like your opinion and want to trick you into thinking you're being tricked so you can have this opinion that I like"
I love TRO so so much too. Hell hes the reason I started watching you so long ago lol. Hes a legend. As always I appreciate the objective look on both you and TRO, most people wont agree with it, but it is a good perspective to keep.
can’t believe when people called him out for being under qualified his response was “my moms a psychologist” it’s like someone doing surgery and saying it’s okay because their mom is a surgeon LMAO
everytime i see it spelled as canceled instead of cancelled, i get increasingly uncomfortable they might both be correct, but there is a superior spelling.
@@bwc Arrogance is blinding. Not to diagnose Chris, but as a relevant example, people with NPD are known to be pretty bad at covering their tracks. Anyone not hypnotized by their charm can see their blunders pretty easily.
@Turquoise Cheetah I'm not coming at BWC, and I know that's likely what he thought defines a manipulative person, as well. But in reality, most manipulators don't consider themselves manipulative. The same goes for abusers. Very rarely is someone aware of their abusive habits and continues perpetuating these behaviors. The problem is, it's also usually impossible to convince a narcissist that they're at fault for anything.
I am in love with that head banger of an opening! ❤️ Edit: Updated the word love (it said loved) and lost the heart from BWC. Still grateful for the time I had with it!
@Makeup Minion He is, sure. In no way qualified. I've watched 1 of his videos and that was clear. Still I can't see why he's any more unethical than any of the other drama channels including this one doing grandstanding about his ethics and not their own.
@Makeup Minion sure, but similarly they will call people manipulative, insane or liars. So they are making similar less informed statements. Where it seems that his channel will make those statements to try and improve the mental health of the viewers, not the person he is talking about at the time. Which is questionable if it's effective. But regardless of how they choose to market themselves, the potential harm they can cause to the people they make videos on is exactly the same, so in my view they aren't ethical either, regardless of whether they acknowledge it. You're basically saying a person who is ignorant about the harm they cause is less ethical than the people who don't care that they cause harm, I'm saying both are same because the harm is the same.
I don't get his cognitive dissonance. What he does is very similar to taking part in cancel culture. He makes videos on people going through difficult situations and spreads rumours regarding their mental health. And he benefits from that financially. Isn't it defamatory to spread unfounded rumours about people's mental health and label them with personality disorders?
Wow, that clip where Chris finally states he doesn’t give an F about the mental health about the people he does videos about says it all, confirms everything I always felt about him. Fantastic video!
I know this is an old vid but you're 100% right. I watched him at the time and the reason I unsubbed was how incredulous he was that he could ever be criticized and his holier than thou attitude is what did it for me. Especially when I originally didn't view the drama commentary that poorly even after Primink's vid, I only truly saw Primink's POV after Chris massively told on himself with his very aggresive "response"
man chris pissed me off so much when he told that guy (sorry forgot his name, maybe nicholas something?) he was debating that it was dangerous for the guy to make a video about chris bc chris is in recovery from drug addiction, basically implying a critical video being made about him could throw chris into relapse. i’m a drug addict in recovery, myself, and i can tell you, we normally can gauge pretty decently where we are in our recovery in terms of stability and solidity. if chris is in a position where a critical video could throw him into relapse, then he shouldn’t be on TH-cam until he’s in a better place. by definition, being on TH-cam opens him up to the public and when you do that, by default you open yourself up to criticism. trying to make that guy feel guilty about the video he made and acting like it could make chris relapse is like drug addict manipulation 101. chris really doesn’t need a platform, he needs to truly work on himself and find a new passion.
I actually used to enjoy is content until he started making videos and making assumptions about peoples mental health. The first one I remember was Bobby burns
After the misleading, disrespectful video on Juice Wrld that he made in addition to all this, yeah...no respect left for the guy. Though to be fair I didn’t have much respect to begin with.
I was in an abusive relationship and came across his channel, he did a video on a youtuber who was in an abusive relationship and shamed her for being stupid enough to fall for it and that she set herself up for that. I was a fan and felt so manipulated and became scared to unsubscribe because he seemed to shame his fans from unsubbing...it felt awful to be manipulated again.
I think a part of the problem is portraying yourself one way online then behind the scenes being not nice about people. Also if you promote good mental health don't use people as examples dissing other people & affect their mental health in a negative way. The way chris caused his own downfall & way he handled his own emotions & impulsiveness shows he is not the kind of person you should be looking to for mental health advice.
He sadly used my poor cousins name in that stupid cat one thing. I was very moody when he had the balls to use Wyatt name. Sorry cousin there are very dumb people out there. >_>
I know it's completely irrelevant but I hate when he says that people don't read books. He's constantly putting people down for not reading. But he DOESN'T read. He listens to audio books. That's fine but it's not the same as reading. You can't get upset with people for watching videos instead of reading when you aren't technically reading either. This is just the type of hypocrisy that he is known for.
And like... Does he realize there's youtube channels, instagram profiles, discord groups, twitter pages, ect. that are literally dedicated book clubs online? Clearly people are still reading books. And you can learn just as much from a video as you can a book. It's just another superiority thing it seems.
People not understanding argumentative fallacies gets to me so badly. To a rational minded person the "Burden of proof" fallacy isn't about the audience being too stupid to find evidence. It's about the presenter of an argument not being intelligent enough to identify and provide legitimate evidence to support their argument; instead, relying on the audience's inability to disprove the non-present information as opposed to simply providing documentation or analogies that support your position.
Uh not every creator had been able to provide proof they're innocent of the allegations against them. Onision has brought none while his victims have pages and pages of receipts
Too bad this video didn’t come out until today or tomorrow, so you could have covered the Juice Wrld vidéo he made just hours after the young man’s tragic, untimely death this morning.
jack-you did great on this video. the editing was smooth throughout, but that intro in particular was phenomenal. with each upload your editing gets better!! in terms of content, your arguments were clear and concise, and anyone can tell that your research for this video was incredibly thorough (as it always is, no doubt). quite frankly i didn’t know, or care all that much about TRS until this video-but it’s clear to me that your critique was much needed. i hope that going forward, chris takes what you’ve said to heart, and continues to grow as a person and a creator x
Just finished the intro sequence. It was sick!! I do wish there would have been a clip of Smokey Glow in there. Hopefully she'll show up later. Edit: No smokey glow :( good video though. If you are unaware Hannah from Smokey Glow had some back and forth with Chris. As someone studying to be a social worker and a someone who is also a former addict, Hannah took Chris to task about his unethical interaction with Taylor Nicole Dean back when that whole situation happened. People should check it out.
I'm excited to see your perspective on this. Without watching the video and just seeing the comments, I can say that the reason people feel Chris is a bad guy is because he doesn't seem to learn from his mistakes. He often classifies criticism from his peers as hate and refuses to ever apologize even if it is pointed out that he gave dangerous advice to his audience. Many of his die hard fans have been turned off to him because they have seen him cause harm. I have tried to communicate with him directly many times and offer support and advice on how to fix the relationship with his fans. I think his ego prevents him from accepting that there are people out there who truly wanted to help him. In recovery we are taught to always remain teachable. I talk to many of his supporters and wish he would be open minded enough to listen to them
I loved Primink's video on Chris and it's a very eye opening video, I think it's important to remind ppl just how dangerous this guy is and would have been if he never had been called out.
In the time he spent pretending to be an authority on mental health, squawking about being cancelled, and writing an entire book that amounted to an extended sulk, he could have got a psychology degree and actually become a qualified authority on mental health.
ETA bruh your editing is LEGIT. That OP hooked me lmao Thanks for the retrospective. I'm subscribing. Looking back on this it creeped me out then and it still creeps me out now how this man in his thirties was so obsessed with a guy who at the time of the first video's publishing was fricking *18 years old*. It's not the widest age gap I've seen with this sort of thing but like. Imagine being in your thirties and letting some greenhorn kid on the internet, one you don't even know, dictate your life and feelings like that. He throws Google Therapy at all these people but can't even take a sec to put a "STOP" to his own spiral. Not to mention, shit, at least pick a person who's been out of highschool for more than a year and a bit? A little more "pick on someone your own size" as opposed to railing against a person whose age still ends in 'teen'? Kid just levelled up enough to legally buy beer and Boutte obsessed so hard he straight published real-person fanfic about him like Primink was Harry Styles. I don't blame Primink one bit for just...leaving TH-cam after that whole saga ended. I wouldn't be surprised if it was related. Like damn, at least Trisha Paytas was an adult who filed taxes when Boutte started neggsessing (negging+obsessing) the hell out of her for clicks.
I'm just responding to the many comments I see here- I'm in the beginning of the video. No one should ever claim to be something they are not- and many saying he's basically a fake therapist... this is just a blanket statement, not on Chris because I dont know much yet. I've struggled extremely bad with mental illness a large chunk of my life. I overheard the doctor telling my parents how I could just drop dead due to my heart at 4yrs old. It scarred me, invoked so much fear. I went through insanely traumatic things, survived a cardiac arrest at 16 (32 now). My anxiety was so bad I was selectively mute, and later in life suffered deeply from psychogenic non epileptic seizures from anxiety and PTSD following an event where the man was charged with attempted murder. I was on disability for 6 years due to the seizures. Anyway, having gone to counseling, trying everything I knew of, it never helped. Medication never helped, I just got addicted to benzos. It wasn't until I made the conscious choice to lose victim mentality and heal my soul that I was able to function again. So many "therapists" have no life experience, cant relate, but think they're all knowing for a degree, and studying books. I will seek help from people with actual life experiences over a professional like that. Literally anyone can be a "therapist" by definition. It just drives me crazy when people say they're unqualified to counsel people due to no degree... and again, I'm not standing up for this particular man. Today, I work fulltime for a nonprofit doing what I love, own a new car, seizure free, and deeply involved in my church. Everyone's journey is different... just stating mine and offer another side here.
It’s ironic because the first video of the Rewired Soul I watched was about confirmation bias; and telling people who follow you and look up to you to “do their research” is pointless. Of course, they’re going to do their “research,” which will coincide with the person the follow because they follow them. It’s so stupid.
I thought I was gone for a few months. It's been 10 months and now my boy got a beard. I'm honestly so glad you covered this guy. I already saw nick and blowblax but seeing your just makes it better for some reason
Damn I found one video review he did and he actually gave good info on the topic of the video. It’s a shame when people can put their ego in check and just stay in their lane.
I challenge anyone to come up with one video that actually provides a “solution” that isn’t -A promo for Chris himself ( better help, previous video or his “book” -A title of a book - Common knowledge Each and every video is just self promo and click bait on trending topics. When he gets more views, he will use the same person back to back to back yet never really has a point to any video 🤷🏻♀️
When I found his channel, I was really deep in my depression and him constantly saying people should seek therapy actually worked out and I started therapy. Funny enough, as I got a bit better, I realized how fcked up he actually was...
Thank you for making this video! I've been wanting someone to make an update. I'd like to add that he is still making the same sort of videos, and is still making videos about Trisha Paytas
What he never cared about is all the people he hurt and alienated way before Primink made a video which was many people in the Mental Health Community.
greendayizzy because many of us have questions about ourselves and he pretended to have the answers. I was one till I realized his behavior was predatory.
I'm so late to comment on this video, but the part when you were saying Massachusetts genuinely made me laugh. I trip over my words so often, it's not even funny, so I'm glad to see someone else struggles with it too
i just got back from taco bell and when i get it to go i take my time and slowly eat prefect got a 40 minute vid yo go with it actually have notifications on as you dont spam videos and theyre usually pretty well thought out gg
So I just love how first his deflection was "I'm making these videos even though these creators have told me to stop because it's the same as if you didn't tell your depressed friend to go to therapy" and when he's called out for hurting these people it's "I don't give a shit about their mental health" lmao. The hypocrisy is real
God I was mean in that clip LMFAO
You went ham, but it really made him slip up on that response.
I think your arguments and replies were perfect! The RS *needs* SOMEONE to get through to him somehow. The fact was and is that many creators were exceedingly polite in their videos, and werent able do it. So maybe a blunt and slightly rude (but still correct) approach could've worked...I mean we all know it didn't work but it could have.
As Chris liked to refer to you at one time, you were an angry white boy Nick. LMAO
You sounded really passionate there dude! I can't be passionate without crying so I look up to that lol
He deserves it tbh.
Dude was on the scene for like 5 minutes and managed to nuke his whole career.
Pretty impressive really.
YAC channels usually have the wits to ignore criticism vids for a reason, people who cant debate and show some signs of apology or self-improvement shouldnt do response vids period.
"the Salem witch trials were early cancel culture" is not the hot take I was expecting but it's the hot take I deserve
I dig that he brought that up.

if you're comparing people calling you unethical to which trials where people faced death and loss of property, you're a special type of privileged
the fact that he thinks that primink is only in for the money feels like he is projecting his own desires on him
Aww. I miss Primink so much. I wish he’d come back.

Same, man. Same.
Finally a video which points out cancel culture is just a new name for an old problem.
It drives me crazy how he lies about himself
I love editing style of this video!!!!! Never herd of you before ! Can't wait to watch more!
Too bad this video didn’t come out until today or tomorrow, so you could have covered the Juice Wrld vidéo he made just hours after the young man’s tragic, untimely death this morning.
Brenda Paduch wow really that’s such a crappy thing to do
I love primink's videos. He does sound like a kid, but his videos are so well done and well researched it doesn't matter
I saw him described as the Daddy Twink lol
This is a great video too, but I'm sure the rewired soul will just try to spin it to his viewers as hate
Primink is vegan
jack-you did great on this video. the editing was smooth throughout, but that intro in particular was phenomenal. with each upload your editing gets better!!
in terms of content, your arguments were clear and concise, and anyone can tell that your research for this video was incredibly thorough (as it always is, no doubt). quite frankly i didn’t know, or care all that much about TRS until this video-but it’s clear to me that your critique was much needed. i hope that going forward, chris takes what you’ve said to heart, and continues to grow as a person and a creator x
This comment is so condescending lol
Quality of your videos is crazy good, I can't wait to see you reach a mln subs. The intro music got me so pumped :D
You NEED more subs! The video essays are off the charts!!!❤️
Just finished the intro sequence. It was sick!!
I do wish there would have been a clip of Smokey Glow in there. Hopefully she'll show up later.
Edit: No smokey glow :( good video though. If you are unaware Hannah from Smokey Glow had some back and forth with Chris. As someone studying to be a social worker and a someone who is also a former addict, Hannah took Chris to task about his unethical interaction with Taylor Nicole Dean back when that whole situation happened. People should check it out.
Great insights into the situation. I watched these videos as the came out and you're bang on. More videos please
I'm excited to see your perspective on this. Without watching the video and just seeing the comments, I can say that the reason people feel Chris is a bad guy is because he doesn't seem to learn from his mistakes. He often classifies criticism from his peers as hate and refuses to ever apologize even if it is pointed out that he gave dangerous advice to his audience. Many of his die hard fans have been turned off to him because they have seen him cause harm. I have tried to communicate with him directly many times and offer support and advice on how to fix the relationship with his fans. I think his ego prevents him from accepting that there are people out there who truly wanted to help him. In recovery we are taught to always remain teachable. I talk to many of his supporters and wish he would be open minded enough to listen to them
Why would someone listen to a guy who doesn't look like he's taking adequate care of himself and thinks he knows how to fix people?
Dang, I leave youtube for a year and everything's on fire- I trusted that dude.
I loved Primink's video on Chris and it's a very eye opening video, I think it's important to remind ppl just how dangerous this guy is and would have been if he never had been called out.
I want someone to gush over me the way you gush over TRO tbh.
......But let's be real, we all love TRO. Not doing so is basically a sin.
In the time he spent pretending to be an authority on mental health, squawking about being cancelled, and writing an entire book that amounted to an extended sulk, he could have got a psychology degree and actually become a qualified authority on mental health.
ETA bruh your editing is LEGIT. That OP hooked me lmao Thanks for the retrospective. I'm subscribing.
Looking back on this it creeped me out then and it still creeps me out now how this man in his thirties was so obsessed with a guy who at the time of the first video's publishing was fricking *18 years old*.
It's not the widest age gap I've seen with this sort of thing but like. Imagine being in your thirties and letting some greenhorn kid on the internet, one you don't even know, dictate your life and feelings like that.
He throws Google Therapy at all these people but can't even take a sec to put a "STOP" to his own spiral.
Not to mention, shit, at least pick a person who's been out of highschool for more than a year and a bit? A little more "pick on someone your own size" as opposed to railing against a person whose age still ends in 'teen'? Kid just levelled up enough to legally buy beer and Boutte obsessed so hard he straight published real-person fanfic about him like Primink was Harry Styles. I don't blame Primink one bit for just...leaving TH-cam after that whole saga ended. I wouldn't be surprised if it was related.
Like damn, at least Trisha Paytas was an adult who filed taxes when Boutte started neggsessing (negging+obsessing) the hell out of her for clicks.
I'm just responding to the many comments I see here- I'm in the beginning of the video. No one should ever claim to be something they are not- and many saying he's basically a fake therapist... this is just a blanket statement, not on Chris because I dont know much yet.
I've struggled extremely bad with mental illness a large chunk of my life. I overheard the doctor telling my parents how I could just drop dead due to my heart at 4yrs old. It scarred me, invoked so much fear. I went through insanely traumatic things, survived a cardiac arrest at 16 (32 now). My anxiety was so bad I was selectively mute, and later in life suffered deeply from psychogenic non epileptic seizures from anxiety and PTSD following an event where the man was charged with attempted murder. I was on disability for 6 years due to the seizures.
Anyway, having gone to counseling, trying everything I knew of, it never helped. Medication never helped, I just got addicted to benzos. It wasn't until I made the conscious choice to lose victim mentality and heal my soul that I was able to function again. So many "therapists" have no life experience, cant relate, but think they're all knowing for a degree, and studying books. I will seek help from people with actual life experiences over a professional like that. Literally anyone can be a "therapist" by definition. It just drives me crazy when people say they're unqualified to counsel people due to no degree... and again, I'm not standing up for this particular man.
Today, I work fulltime for a nonprofit doing what I love, own a new car, seizure free, and deeply involved in my church. Everyone's journey is different... just stating mine and offer another side here.
It’s ironic because the first video of the Rewired Soul I watched was about confirmation bias; and telling people who follow you and look up to you to “do their research” is pointless. Of course, they’re going to do their “research,” which will coincide with the person the follow because they follow them. It’s so stupid.
2:35 I was NOT prepared for his last name here 😂 😂 😂
I've been looking forward to this
love and appreciate the effort you put into every one of your videos♥️♥️ u should have more subs
You speak with a lot more eloquence than you think, TRO would agree! 😉👍🏼
God, i love the editing in this video
I thought I was gone for a few months. It's been 10 months and now my boy got a beard. I'm honestly so glad you covered this guy. I already saw nick and blowblax but seeing your just makes it better for some reason
Great video, great research. Good job, always looking forward to new videos
Never heard of him before, but will go watch a few vids see what I think. Great video again Jack!
This was edited and constructed really really well👍🏻
Hes at it again. Posting within 4 hours of someone's dealth...
that whole 'im an addict living in vegas why would you say x y z about me' W O W
Nooooo I have to go to work I can’t finish! That intro was fantastic tho
Damn I found one video review he did and he actually gave good info on the topic of the video. It’s a shame when people can put their ego in check and just stay in their lane.
You uploaded now it's time to watch the video let's go
I challenge anyone to come up with one video that actually provides a “solution” that isn’t
-A promo for Chris himself ( better help, previous video or his “book”
-A title of a book
- Common knowledge
Each and every video is just self promo and click bait on trending topics. When he gets more views, he will use the same person back to back to back yet never really has a point to any video 🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for doing this. He's beginning to remind me of Onision and we so don't need another one.
Great video there Jack, very detailed and informative. Enjoy the production values of your content. Keep up the good work
Insane talent!! Glad I found your channel
Thank you for your service, cos I didnt want to read his book and was curious about what happened to him.
When I found his channel, I was really deep in my depression and him constantly saying people should seek therapy actually worked out and I started therapy. Funny enough, as I got a bit better, I realized how fcked up he actually was...
That intro is amazing great editing
Thank you for making this video! I've been wanting someone to make an update. I'd like to add that he is still making the same sort of videos, and is still making videos about Trisha Paytas
Damned nice editing.
What he never cared about is all the people he hurt and alienated way before Primink made a video which was many people in the Mental Health Community.
God, great graphics work BWC!! Overall good vid👍
Oh my God, the editing in the opening...
It felt just like a TV show
His videos were never good. I don’t even know how he got so many followers
greendayizzy because many of us have questions about ourselves and he pretended to have the answers. I was one till I realized his behavior was predatory.
I'm so late to comment on this video, but the part when you were saying Massachusetts genuinely made me laugh. I trip over my words so often, it's not even funny, so I'm glad to see someone else struggles with it too
i just got back from taco bell and when i get it to go i take my time and slowly eat prefect got a 40 minute vid yo go with it actually have notifications on as you dont spam videos and theyre usually pretty well thought out gg
Did you just have a stroke or are you always confused about everything?
Hope you're ready for his response to this video
Betting on him calling you "inexperienced" and his most recent insult "white boy school shooter"
I don't think there will be a response
So I just love how first his deflection was "I'm making these videos even though these creators have told me to stop because it's the same as if you didn't tell your depressed friend to go to therapy" and when he's called out for hurting these people it's "I don't give a shit about their mental health" lmao. The hypocrisy is real
It frustrates me that you see videos with this much quality and effort put into it and only getting as few views as it has.
Dude the editing in that intro was lit-
Can’t wait for your channel to be in his next book.
This intro is incredibly well done. On to the video
As a Taurean with an Aries moon and a Capricorn ascendant, I heed the call.
The music in the beginning got me HYPE af.
Chris's channel was never really about mental health. It was about Chris.
