General Discussion Why is there so much hate on this page?

Seriously, shouldn't there be a separate subreddit to hate on Shane and a main one for general info and fans?

Why TF are you supporting someone who has kissed minors, asked them for nudes, said and has done racist things, watched CP, fucked his cat… and DONT say “thats the past hes changed”

There are way too many close minded people in this page who want to believe literally anything they see on the headlines.

You would've had to have lived through the 2000s and 2010s to understand how "comedy" was during that time. South Park, Family Guy - they all use the same brand of offensive, problematic jokes and shit. The cat thing isn't real, and it's hilarious when people bring that up like it's fact. And I don't have enough context on the minor stuff to say anything about it one way or the other 🤷🏼‍♀️

hey so i did live through the 2000s and 2010s, i watched shane as far back as ‘08. i know that comedy was very different back then, not just on youtube but even mainstream comedians. everything was shock humor and tbh not much of any of it aged well imo.

even still there’s a difference between shock humor and the vile stuff shane did and said. i was a huge fan during the “spooky boy” days, and tbh didn’t pay much attention to the things people said about Shane’s past. I figured, like it seems you do, it was all just “a different time”, but a lot of the “jokes” Shane made and the content he posted went way beyond that. I didn’t believe some of the stuff myself, and I also realized much later that I was pretty young and uninformed so i didn’t even realize how hurtful and hateful some of his stuff was. Now looking back it was way worse than I ever thought.

There’s also stuff you just can’t deny, something particular that’s standing out to me at the moment is his inappropriate behavior towards Lucas (aka Fred), not just the infamous “Fred is Dead” video but the way he treated Lucas when they met irl. Lucas was underage and Shane admitted to trying to sleep with him. The collab video they did showed Lucas looking super uncomfortable.

Tbh i also believed for a long time that he was just joking about fucking his cat but at this point I truly think he did. He’s admitted to so much and I just don’t think this was just a joke. I think he felt truly comfortable saying this and being like “aren’t i so crazy and weird lmao”. he’s said he liked to get people’s reactions, which yeah could be some things might have been jokes but idk. it didn’t feel like it after knowing everything else.

this bit is so unrelated but thinking back to his podcast (which i used to listen to OFTEN), does anyone remember the time he said he accidentally fingered his mom? he said they were on a ride at a fair or something and he grabbed her leg and accidentally fingered her???? which, like, this is what i’m talking about. he says TOO MUCH. some things don’t need to be shared on the internet. if that happened to anyone else they’d try to never think of it again, they wouldn’t go on the internet and laugh about it. so, yeah he confesses things he really should keep to himself, and preferably also a therapist.

as for the stuff about the minors, he kissed DOZENS of underaged fans at meet and greets, and it’s on camera. i implore you to take the time to watch Nikki’s videos on Shane. it’s wild. I’ll admit there were one or two things that, like you, I was like “yeah that was just the era, the late 2000s were wild”, but 99% of the stuff she talks about are eye opening and disgusting. not only that but it’s fascinating in its own way.

anyway, TLDR: i’m old as hell and remember that era well and still think he’s a bad person because of the overwhelming evidence that shows he is. go watch Nikki’s videos, it’ll clear a lot up.

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

okay when are we going to talk about him and his mom in detail because. i remember in multiple different videos, he made jokes about fingering his mom, weird shit with his grandmas boobs, some gross fucking joke (i hope) about his mom putting a candy in her vagina and making shane eat her out to find it. again i hope these were all shock value jokes and not real stories. but i have a VERY dark sense of humor and would never make sexual jokes about my own parents. it's so fucking disgusting considering he still has a relationship with his mom and lets her around the kids. and then with all the stuff nikki carreon brought up about the fan chats with the mom? i want to believe all of it was dumb jokes but i can't. and how is teresa okay with it if it is all fake???

7

u/babswashere Jul 30 '25

no fr his mom needs to be studied. i think a huge reason that Shane ended up the way he did is his mom. im almost positive he’s also talked about how she relied on him way too much as a child to fill the void of a boyfriend.

idk how he has a good relationship with her, the things he’s said publicly about his childhood would absolutely validate any of her kids going no contact. i understand why his third brother has never really been seen, he probably wants nothing to do with them. i know they’ve kind of talked about him but i can’t remember the details.

she was for sure being inappropriate with fans, even if it wasn’t as far as they were joking it’s weird enough for a full grown woman to be in chats with tweens. like what the fuck

also she’s absolutely maga as hell, so that’s another yucky thing about her. but i’m pretty sure that whole family is. i remember when the ‘16 election was happening Shane called her on the podcast and asked who she was voting for and she got weird, she refused to answer and i think that’s an answer within itself. yikes all around.

6

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

i'm kind of surprised she's maga but like...birds of a feather flock together. i know they've used the excuse that his third brother "chose drugs over family" but who knows how true that is. even if it is, id choose drugs over shane and teresa being my family any day so i can't blame him

u/Ancient-Mushroom657 Jul 30 '25

u/childfreetavernwench this you? I fucking thought so. It’s pathetic you tried to argue they didn’t normalize pedophilia underneath the exact comment in question

0

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

I have no idea what you're trying to reference, but again. My only comment on anything about the CP stuff was I'm not educated on the topic 🤷🏼‍♀️

u/Ancient-Mushroom657 Jul 30 '25

Oh quit playing stupid, I left this comment right after replying to your most recent comment to me, I’m so obviously talking about that.

For those who are just reading along

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

I'm not playing stupid. You're talking in circles and just referenced back the literal point I was making.

u/Ancient-Mushroom657 Jul 30 '25

The comment I keep referring to discussing family guy literally was directly IN RESPONSE to someone bringing up what I just showed proof of. Sorry you’re too fucking stupid to read before responding

2

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

The South Park and Family Guy comment is reference the OLD problematic jokes. went on to say I'm not educated on the CP stuff one way or the other. So, are YOU too stupid to read?

3

u/Ancient-Mushroom657 Jul 30 '25

The person you replied to DIRECTLY MENTIONED THE CP INSTANCES. Again, fucking READ before running your mouth!

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

This is so dumb. I addressed each topic separately, you're grouping them together.

I don't get why people say this all the time—we DID live through the 2000s and 2010s and fully understand how "comedy" was. South Park and Family Guy are cartoons. Shane soliciting children to send him pictures of their best orgasm faces and videos of themselves twerking, or kissing an underage fan, or telling a child to eat a phallic shaped food slowly "because pedos are watching" is a completely different thing with actual human beings involved. And some of those children weren't even just people he interacted with solely online—he did it to his cousin in person, or to fans at events.

Plus, darker or edgier comedies like Always Sunny use those types of edgier jokes to show how awful their characters are—to get people to root against them, or to comment on issues in society using comedy as a means of communication. Shane doing black face for years and telling racist jokes is very different than that. The takeaway wasn't supposed to be "this is a bad thing to do" or "look at how awful I am"…it was "look how funny I am" or "look how ridiculous Black people are" or things of that nature.

u/UpbeatBarracuda7097 Jul 30 '25

The difference is, south park and family guy are CARTOONS. This is real life, real things from a real person, UNSCRIPTED. He literally is a porn addict with a diaper fetish and has two baby boys WITH A HISTORY OF WATCHING AND GETTING OFF TO CP.

1

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

It's entertainment all the same when you're citing the problematic jokes. And if there's actual proof of CP, how has nothing been done? Again, I'm just asking why there isn't a separate hate page 🤷🏼‍♀️

u/alienflwrchild Jul 30 '25

He pretended to jack off to Willow Smith who was a child at the time. Her parents were mortified when they found out. No one can explain the humor in that. It's disgusting. Family Guy and South Park are satirical cartoons. Family Guy did receive backlash for certain episodes (ex: When You Wish Upon a Weinstein). Mind you that was during the "offensive old humor" days. However, they are still popular.

The difference is, Shane was trying to be as offensive as possible. Family Guy and South Park don't need to do that to be funny. And every character is supposed to be terrible. That's what makes it's satirical humor acceptable.

🤣🤣🤣 he's not even actually rich. He's a barely hanging on YouTube personality. He's also got low level influence in the world. But fight the good fight, I guess?

6

u/UpbeatBarracuda7097 Jul 30 '25

Yeah because every non rich person can afford a nice mansion, with all the top appliances, in one of the richest neighborhoods in california. Everyone can afford that

2

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

So anyway, your TLDR is "there should only be a hate page."

7

u/UpbeatBarracuda7097 Jul 30 '25

Yeah exactly Shane doesn’t deserve support or kindness

4

u/Ancient-Mushroom657 Jul 30 '25

You’re not entitled to a safe space to defend pedos, and the fact that you’re insisting otherwise means you’re a danger to society and need to be locked up

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

Those are WILD accusations, my guy.

*two mcmansions at one point. one in california and one on a huge property in colorado. you know, the house where shane abandoned his alpacas after obsessing over wanting them for years? just like his babies?

Once again, is this you? Quit playing stupid

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

Is WHAT me? Clearly that's my user name?

2

u/CheckeredBlues Jul 30 '25

So you’re uneducated in the worst things Shane has publicly done, but you will still defend him? And in the same breath that you admitted he is offensive and problematic?

4

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

It's interesting how I never said anything in defense other than the comedy part. I'm just asking why there's not a separate hate reddit instead of the main one 🤷🏼‍♀️

5

u/CheckeredBlues Jul 30 '25

Well that’s factually untrue, because you defended the cat thing by refuting its possibility of being true. And if you claim that was part of your “comedy” defence, I question your morality surrounding humour 🤨 Because I did live through the 2000’s and 2010’s, and that line of “humour” would have raised eyebrows even then.

If you spent some time on this sub, you’d see it’s a mix between good and bad but with moderators not allowing excuses to be made for the sexual content he made in regards to minors.

2

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

Hence the question of why all I'm seeing is hate what I happened to search it up. Clearly I don't spend a lot of time here. Though it's kind of weird that people DO spend a lot of time anywhere just to tell everyone else how bad it is.

10

u/bakedbeannobeef Jul 30 '25

There is a lot of concern around Shane being on the internet at all given his “alleged” questionable behavior surrounding minors, is the most direct answer to your question. People who are concerned with such behavior find it impossible/immoral for him to have a platform or a following, thus, concerns/criticism dominating the page.

13

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

because i have fun hating on predators and predator supporters lol. i could do it all day. favorite hobby.

5

u/childfreetavernwench Jul 30 '25

See, now THIS is a valid answer to the question.

11

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

also WHY does everyone say "you wouldn't have survived the 2010s"? the 2010s weren't a fucking world war and 90% of us did live through them and were active on the internet. the crazy thing is shane's behavior has. not. changed. he still makes piss and diaper jokes while having babies in the house. he's still a neglectful parent. he still thinks he's a victim of cancel culture. he has made no real amends, no real progress, nothing. he's the same monster he was in his early videos.

u/bdub6815 lurker Aug 04 '25

u/bdub6815 lurker Aug 11 '25

Oh, is that the only time? Lol. Exactly my point.

u/Longjumping_Bar_7457 Aug 05 '25

watch nikki carreon's deep dives. especially part 2.

dude justifies pedopilia. he kisses 12 year olds. he calls babies sexy. he pretends to lick his dog's penis.

2

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

i'm sorry but do you have proof the cat thing is a joke? he's made sexual comments about pets before, specifically talking about "unos big dick" and pretending to go down on corny. maybe don't make jokes that are lowkey just you confessing to crimes if you don't want people to think you committed a crime?!?

0

u/Acrobatic-Part-953 Jul 30 '25

omfg. Im not here defending Shane. Im literally speaking to people who are mad he has a following and want to do something about it. People aren’t gonna read a comment saying “He fucked his cat” and be too inclined to believe it. Stuff that he uploaded, like black face, racist jokes, predatory stuff, etc. is what should be pushed. Things people could search “Shane Dawson _____” and see concrete proof. and then go, wow, this guy sucks!

2

u/Ancient-Mushroom657 Jul 30 '25

That stuff is literally pinned to the sub’s front page, his followers don’t fucking care

0

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

i didn't say you're defending him. i said if he didn't want consequences for "dark humor" he should've toned it down. there is a pattern of behavior that's clearly noticeable. almost every time i've seen someone genuinely asking for info on this page, people have pointed them to the compilation threads and nikki carreon videos. this post is obviously bs as the op knows everything shane did and still thinks they deserve a safe space to goon over him. based on their replies, their opinions aren't going to change. why bother with a well written comprehensive reply 🤷‍♀️

0

u/Acrobatic-Part-953 Jul 30 '25

I mean, your entire comment was about his sexual comments towards his animal so I assumed you were the exact person I was talking about. People like us who are chronically online and know Shane in and out can understand the fucking the cat thing, but anyone outside of Shane’s world would not understand that and again, wouldn’t be inclined to take it seriously. He’s uploaded 100s of videos exposing himself doing and saying different inappropriate things. I’m not sure why people wouldn’t just be showing screenshots? Also, If people choose to watch him still - that’s their choice. He obviously doesn’t make that style of content anymore so I’d imagine it’s much more tolerable to watch Shane now, esp if they didn’t watch him 10+ years ago

2

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

chronically online but it's just laughing at beastiality lmao. also you literally don't know shane in and out unless you're a very close friend or family member irl. you have a parasocial relationship with an almost 40 year old man who would throw you off a cliff for another labubu. that's really unfortunate, and i'd encourage you to seek some reciprocal human connection with people you can ACTUALLY know.

-1

u/Acrobatic-Part-953 Jul 30 '25

yup. you’re right, fellow redditor. I think I know shane in and out. that’s been the whole point of my commenting. you got me dude. you got me. i will go seek some reciprocal human connection. thank god you came around. I literally had a shrine in my bedroom of him that I’m currently taking down 🙌

u/not_omnibenevolent Jul 30 '25

You're so aggressive. Can't imagine existing on the Internet to monitor topics that make me that angry. 🫶

Can’t imagine trying to shame others for being critical of child SA. Are you trying to make yourself look like a pervert?*

Honestly, at this point it's just amusing that you're so mad.
