    He says he has memory problems from a head injury from when he was a child. Which idk if that really clears him but thats certainly a thing he said

      He must have forgotten that ripping words from other people is plagiarism, too.

        like i dont doubt that he may have memory problems but ive seen many people also with memory problems from injuries say that in those cases working with a partner, like he did, to check for plagiarism would be the responsible thing to do and doesnt absolve him. sounds like just bringing up for sympathy points

          Having memory problems doesnt make you copy/paste whole articles into your video scripts. It doesnt make you edit the wording to make it sound less natural and human to hide your plagiarism. It certainly doesnt make you do this literally dozens of times, over the course of years. It certainly doesnt make you less than the bare minimum of citing your work after your plagiarism is pointed out, and it doesn’t excuse lying about getting permission to use someones elses work.

          Dude was ripping off dozens of better creators for years while making a mint, and now is just lying through his teeth as hard as possible.

    It must be so weird to be some unknown random shit head and have a huge youtuber make a 2 hour video essay about all the ways you suck.

      James was doing really, really well. Videos had a million views each and his Patreon was like $150k a year.
      Correct me if I’m wrong.

        Yeah apparently. I had never heard of him before the hbomberguy video and nobody I talked to about it had either.

        Maybe that kind of video is just not something my friends or I am into, so that could be why. Could also be his view count is way off and more bots than anything else. His Patreon being that high I can believe, I’ve seen people throw crazy money at people on Patreon.

        Still, compared to someone with the reach of hbomberguy, he’s kind of a nobody.
