    It’s not, but reddit is wild on this and brings up excuses like “he should have made a video showing they’re best friends” or whatever.

    Linus did actually tweeted and talked a couple of minutes in a WAN show pleading his fanbase to leave this kid alone, but for reddit it was not enough.

      Yeah Reddit (and the rest of the internet) do get wild sometimes

      Probably could have done some more to help, but that’s the moral dilemma of looking back and seeing you always could’ve done more

        While I don’t think it’s Linus’ fault that other people act like that, I do think he bears some responsibility in who and how he names people in his videos. A bit more consideration is necessary. It hasn’t come up a lot; Maybe the pool install company that screwed him over.
