Similarities between me and Onision [CFUNvd6tZas]

Hi, and welcome back to a new video.

Today we're joined by a steaming mug of

rainbow coffee, and today I want to talk

about similarities between me and another

YouTuber called Onision. But first of all,

I thought I'd try and make the atmosphere

a little bit dark and brooding, so I

downloaded this rain sound effect file.

I'm fairly sure most people here know who

Onision is, He used to be a pretty big

YouTuber, and now he's one of the most

hated YouTubers on the entire platform.

And I started to notice that people were

comparing me to Onision in my comment

section about a year before Elvis the

Alien even started to call me the Asian

Onision in his videos. I wasn't really

happy about this, and I blocked the word

Onision from being typed out in my comment

section because I didn't really want the

idea that I was pretty similar to Onision

to start getting spread around. I didn't

want people to think that I was just like

him. I didn't want people to think that I

was just like him because, well, he's not

a very popular YouTuber anymore and

everyone hates him and no one thinks that

his content is very good either. Still

don't really think I'm that much like him,

but I do see a few similarities and I do

kind of feel like I'm on the same path as

he is. He's just further down the path.

And I feel kind of scared that I might end

up at the same destination that he's in

right now. The first thing that I would

say that we have in common is we both seem

to think that being edgy and nihilistic is

cool. And maybe a lot of people do think

being edgy and nihilistic is cool when

they were 16 or 15, you know, during the

emo phase that a lot of teenagers go

through. However, me and Onision managed

to get to the age of 30, and we still

think being edgy and emo and nihilistic

about everything is cool, when in reality

it's kind of lame if you think about it.

No one's going to respect or look up to a

grown man who's supposed to be an adult

and mature when he's still acting like a

teenager. Something else we have in common

is when it comes to YouTube content,

we both have a tendency to try and use

drama to get views. For example, marriage

drama, relationship problems, cheating,

that kind of stuff. I'm not really proud

of the fact that my channel became a drama

channel, but it's just the easiest way to

try and get views on YouTube, and it's

really a struggle to try and get noticed

on YouTube. And titles like I cheated or

we broke up or we're getting divorced just

do very well when it comes to views. I do

kind of feel ashamed of myself because

becoming a clickbaity drama channel like

Onision wasn't really ever my intention.

I really wanted to make original content

that, that I enjoyed making and that came

from my heart and that people could enjoy

watching, that was original, innovative.

And I just kind of gave up on that idea

some— somewhere along the line, and I gave

in to the temptation of just using easy

clickbaity titles like we broke up or

we got divorced or I guess in a way I kind

of flushed my own ideals down the toilet,

and I just sort of gave up when it came to

making decent content on YouTube, and I

just took the easy path. Just like I do in

life with everything. If anything becomes

difficult or challenging, I give up and I

take the easy path. I would like to change

my ways, and I would like to start making

decent content again. That's implying that

I ever made decent content in the first

place. I don't know. But I just feel like

I'm trapped now because— because I just

don't really know if I have it in me

anymore to make decent content. I kind of

feel like my passion for making YouTube

videos fizzled away at some point last

year. I'm not sure why exactly or when

exactly it happened, but my passion for

making videos definitely has fizzled out a

little bit. I've been trying to watch

other YouTubers I don't usually watch to

try and get some inspiration. Get my

passion back. Something else that I often

get compared to Onision with is our

treatment of women and how we treat women

poorly, and I've never agreed with this.

Yeah, I've treated a few women badly, and

I've said bad things about a few women,

but to just make a blanket statement and

say that I treat all women badly is just

false. I've had many interactions and

meetings with lots of different women,

and most of you don't even know anything

about these women because I never said

anything about them. Usually if I don't

have anything to complain about, then I

just won't say anything about the person

or the woman or the guy that I've had

the interaction with. You know, it's kind

of like those review websites where you

review restaurants or hotels. If you go to

a restaurant or hotel and you had a good

time, and there was nothing really to

complain about, you'll just go home and go

to bed and you won't really think about it

anymore. But if you had a really bad

experience at one of these hotels or

restaurants, you might be tempted to go

onto one of these review websites and

leave a scathing review of how terrible

of an experience you had. I just don't

really think it's fair to say that I treat

women badly when I've only said or done

mean things to about 5 or 6 women out of

the nearly 100 women that I've met in my

entire life. If I've treated 90 women out

of 100 well and I've only treated about 10

badly, then in general I think I treat

women pretty fairly. I think that's a

pretty good ratio. I was raised to treat

women with respect, to always consider

their feelings and to open doors for them,

pull out chairs for them, and I just feel

kind of insulted when people accuse me of

treating women badly. In general.

Something else we might have in common is

we have a tendency to do you-know-what

with our female fans or viewers. And I

know a lot of people think it's wrong to

do you-know-what with your female

audience. You know how some people like to

take the moral high ground? They say stuff

like, oh, you shouldn't, shouldn't meet up

with your female viewers and use them in

that way because you're taking advantage

of them. They look up to you, they kind of

worship you, you have this power over

them. And I think that's just a load of

rubbish. If a YouTube content creator and

a viewer of that content creator wants to

meet up and do adult things together, I

don't really see why that's a problem.

It's not like you've tricked them into

doing it. It's not like you've hypnotized

them. If a girl likes me because they've

seen my videos and they want to get more

intimate with me physically, I don't

really see why that's a problem. They've

seen my videos, they've seen what I look

like and my personality, and maybe they

like one of those 2 things. And they

want to get to know me more on a personal

level. Why is that something that's wrong?

As long as they're mature and they're

adults and they aren't mentally ill, then

it's just 2 adults agreeing to meet each

other and agreeing to do certain things

together. It's not really that different

to using a dating website or going to a

bar or a nightclub. You go to a bar or

nightclub and you start talking to a

woman. Well, you're using your looks and

your personality to try and impress her,

and if she likes your looks or

personality, then you might get lucky and

you might be able to take her home. Some

people might argue that it's wrong because

you're using your fame to take advantage

of women, and I don't really think that's

true. I don't think women are that stupid.

Okay, maybe there's a small percentage of

women that would do you-know-whats with a

guy just because he's famous, but number

one, I'm not really that famous. I only

have 100K subs. Number two, the fans or

the female viewers that I met up with in

Germany and London and did you-know-whats

with I don't even think they were fans in

the first place. Even the Turkish girl,

for example, said she only saw a few of my

videos and thought I was sweet and cute

and innocent. I'm pretty sure if she was a

real fan and she watched nearly all of my

videos and had a good understanding of who

I was and what I do, then I don't think

she would have agreed to coming all the

way to Germany to meet me in a hotel in

the first place. The reason why these

viewers wanted to have you-know-what with

me, I don't think it had anything to do

with my, my small amount of fame. I think

it was just because they liked the way I

looked and they liked my personality.

Since when is using your looks and

personality to try and attract the

opposite gender such a crime? The only

difference between using your looks and

personality in a nightclub compared to

using your looks and personality on a

YouTube channel is that depending on the

size of your audience, audience, you have—

well, it just boosts the amount of eyes

that get exposed to your looks and

appearance and personality, and it

increases your chances of having that

tasty cereal. Obviously, in some cases

it's wrong. For example, there's an

episode on Friends when Joey, who acts as

this Dr. Drake Ramoray on a TV show within

Friends, well, he has this crazy stalker

female fan, and she actually thinks Joey

is Drake Ramoray. And Joey pretends that

he's actually Drake Ramore in real life so

he can go on a date with this crazy

stalker fan. And yeah, that's really

manipulative, and I would never do that

because I think it's wrong to take

advantage of the mentally ill. And if I

were to take advantage of the mentally

ill, then I would never tell anyone about

it. There's no way I'd make a video about

it. Also, a lot of people seem to think

that me and Onision are very open and

honest. I get called one of the most open

and honest YouTubers all the time, and as

much as I would love to agree with that,

it just isn't true. I lie all the time.

There's plenty of things I haven't been

open about. I haven't been open and honest

about everything. There's a lot of stories

and things I have never talked about. For

example, illegal things that I would never

admit to doing publicly. And there's a lot

of women that I've met but I've never

spoken about because they made me promise

not to talk about them or to use their

picture in videos. Even though I would

like to be 100% open and tell you

everything, it's just not possible because

there's certain things that if I did tell

everyone about, then I would get into some

serious legal trouble.

Oh, and one last thing I have to say about

Onision is although I never really enjoyed

his content and I never really found him

funny, I have to admit his recent freakout

videos where he just goes absolutely

mental and strips all of his clothes off

and covers himself in alcoholic beverages

and does crazy stuff in a tent. Oh yeah,

I forgot to mention that he also made a

few videos of him living in a tent just

like I did. Yeah, he's— his new freakout

videos are actually pretty funny because

he just starts screaming like an absolute

lunatic, and I'm actually enjoying his

videos for the first time ever. And I know

all this FBI stuff is going on, and I'm

not trying to defend him in any way. I'm

not trying to say that he isn't a bad

person. I'm sure he is a pretty bad

person, but at the end of the day, who

really cares? And I don't really have much

sympathy for these poor girls who are

being taken advantage of because, come on,

it's Onision. If you don't know who

Onision is by now, then you

kind of only have yourself to blame. Are

you living under a rock? How could you not

know that Onision is not really the

kind of person that you want to get

involved with. You can blame a bad

restaurant for selling really, really

terrible food that keeps giving customers

food poisoning, but if the customers keep

going back there when they know that

they're going to get food poisoning, can

you really blame the restaurant anymore?

I hope you join me in crossing my fingers,

and I'll see you next time in another
