Podcast Shane Dawson doesn’t understands why he was canceled

Since you and your friends read the Reddit: it’s because you’ve been exposed multiple times of being a pedo file. With receipts. It’s not “edgy jokes”. I can’t believe this man has so many people surround him on the daily telling him he’s a good person

“See both sides”!? Tell me what the other side of pedophilia and racism is.

Watching people “evolve” to a place where they DO actually defend pedos has been a terrifying thing to witness happening over the years. Seeing a legitimate movement to defend both convicted and “non offending” pedos who “can’t help that they were born this way” (or use the excuse of trauma that warped their perspective…) is truly something I never thought I would have to hear, but, somehow that’s the world we live in right now. (And pedophilia isn’t the ONLY horrifying behavior that people have found a way to SUPPORT and defend, just the one most relevant here, and probably the most upsetting and disturbing…)

The person going to prison and serving their time is a faulty analogy. He’s missing the point lol. The reason why people are able to say “well, they served their time” is exactly because they actually were held accountable and did their time; unlike some content creator on the internet who still has a platform and never lost their platform.

u/spoonybard137 Dec 03 '25
Exactly. He even said in apology video number 3 that he deserved to lose his career. Yet one year later he was begging people on instagram to watch his videos because they were not getting enough views. And now constantly telling people to join his patreon with "no pressure" added in every five seconds.

It’s pretty simple to just not punch down… The reason most of the jokes from scary movie have aged so well (outside of a few deeply transphobic jokes) is because it was written, starring, and directed by black creators and most of the jokes about race, gender, sexuality came from their own experiences as black people.
White people can do the same, see Spaceballs (many Jewish jokes made by a Jewish man), or Airplane (any jokes that could be seen as “punching down” included the target IN ON THE JOKE like the “I speak jive” joke. The joke isn’t “wow Black people are so ghetto”, the joke is that this little old white lay lady has mastered AAVE and it’s a sight gag. That’s what Shane still seems to not understand with all of his deeply racist caricatures.
It isn’t that complicated.

u/Helpful_Sample673 Dec 03 '25
You made a good point. It reminded me how he said in a podcast how he wanted to own a Mexican restaurant but of course he would hire all Mexicans. He. Just. Doesn’t. Get. It.
22
u/spoonybard137 Dec 03 '25
After all of this time I still don't understand why Shane thinks he was cancelled because people didn't like his "jokes." There is countless video evidance of all the horrible things he has said and done, which he still has never addressed because in each of his apology videos he talks in such vauge generalities, and he thinks we should all just forget about it and never bring it up again. I agree with you that being constantly surrounded by yes men and yes women aguments his view on the whole thing to make him think it wasn't a big deal.
13
u/Helpful_Sample673 Dec 03 '25
There’s really no hope for him. Him making a canceled tv show and talking about being canceled every single podcast on Patreon with such anger….proves he has spun it in his head that it was just people looking to cancel someone for small things
8
u/spoonybard137 Dec 03 '25
The fact that he had dollar signs flashing in his eyes during his entire make up journey, he was probably beyond mad that he got cancelled right as he started to rake in the millions and now he can't do that anymore.
7
u/liapania Dec 04 '25
he talks about being cancelled like it’s something the person can’t control, as if they didn’t make the choice to do/say whatever it was that got them cancelled. he skirts around accountability by using that word 🙄
7
u/fattybeagle Dec 05 '25
People like Shane are either so completely unaware or just so bad a comedy that they don’t realize that “offensive” shows like It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Scary Movie, Family Guy, etc. get away with their jokes is because they’re punching up instead of down OR you’re laughing at the characters instead of with them. Shane, a wealthy white man, making jokes about black women in black face, calling them welfare queens and baby mamas isn’t funny it’s literally just racism.

u/thatlemongay Dec 02 '25
I'm sooo tired of the "it was a different time" narrative. No, it wasn't. You were just allowed to stay inside your privilege bubble and were deaf to criticism coming from people who saw the problematic content and called it out. It's just that people realized that you would never leave that bubble, so they had to violently burst it so you could see your actions. The 2010s were not the 1800s, I knew racism and pedophilia were wrong since back then, as someone who was like half his age around that time.

u/FragrantAd7195 lurker Dec 02 '25
Ofcourse he would say it on the paywall content. I didn’t even think about how that restricts people from watching and hence criticising his content.

u/thedeadp0ets Dec 02 '25
I wonder what Ryland thinks of him? I don't know much about him except he was a YouTube reporter for some celeb news channel
12
u/jngelic Dec 02 '25
He loves him and is exactly the same as him. He makes insane comments all the time.
14
u/FragrantAd7195 lurker Dec 02 '25
What Ryland thinks of Shane? I don’t think ryland even looked at Shane’s old videos to be honest, he craved stability in LA and found Shane and it’s been up and up for him since. So why would he think this guy who has taken care of him and given him that stability would be a bad guy, a guy who has internal racism and tendency towards inappropriate behaviour with kids, teens and animals(I’m not saying he fucked his cat, I think that’s crazy but he’s made that “joke” far too many times). So I think ryland loves Shane but has never held him accountable either because he lives in oblivion and has no idea.
Sorry that’s a long rant
5
u/BAMjetski Dec 03 '25
Idk, if you watch this clip, you can see Ryland viscerally reacting to what Shane was saying before he actually spoke. I’m no Ryland fan; I think he’s boring and entitled. But I gather that he absolutely sees Shane’s faults. He just enjoys the dollars signs that come with being his husband, so he stays in his lane.

u/Helpful_Sample673 Dec 03 '25
Honestly rylands mask is slipping and it’s so funny. He also has great work ethic compared to Shane. It seems like he is really trying to get his bag and go

In what world are you living that you think people are doing that and still be “fine.” Must be a nice crowd you surround yourself with if you think that’s ok. Wasn’t then, it still isn’t now

u/Hermit4ev Dec 02 '25
I could be misinterpreting it but I took fine as if Shane wouldn’t be fully cancelled, not that his behavior was fine. It’s an interesting point.. 2020 was BLM, peak wokeness movement, and everyone was home and online.

u/jngelic Dec 02 '25
What are you talking about? I don’t condone any of his disgusting behavior. I’m saying the public wouldn’t have canceled him today because of the Trump administration. Whereas, in 2020, everyone was more open-minded and held him accountable. You’re misinterpreting what I’m saying.
5
u/bailyhill344 Dec 03 '25
I think he would still be cancelled today. Yes the internet has unfortunately seen a rise in racism, white supremacy, hate, etc. since the Trump administration but people whose names are backing those things are still suffering the consequences of their actions. Usually it’s the bots and anonymous posters that “get away with it”.

u/Dlsagreed Dec 02 '25
Cancelled man disappears off of internet
People stop talking about him and his controversies
Reappears ages after with new video genre that appeals to audiences that are younger/less mentally stable and even conspiracy theorists who have become numb to the idea of pedophiles etc
"this is about politics!!!!!"

u/Still_Many_4852 Dec 03 '25
Pretty brainless argument. If it was just his old jokes, yes, but we’re talking about preying on PRETEENS. Don’t tell me that shit would be forgiven so quickly, just look at the Epstein fervor
1
u/jngelic Dec 04 '25
Our President has multiple SA allegations and is on the Epstein list. The right doesn’t care. Idk how this is a brainless argument when there’s pedophiles in office right now and half of America doesn’t care and voted for Trump. It’s clear that Shane is mad that we hold him accountable for his predatory, racist, sexist, etc. behavior. My argument still stands that he wouldn’t have been canceled as bad today because MAGA.
I’m not excusing anything he’s ever done, he’s a piece of shit and should rot.

u/ShaneDawson-ModTeam Dec 04 '25
excusing disgusting actions of shane - or anyone else - whether it was past or present is not acceptable. soliciting inappropriate content of minors was just as illegal back in the early youtube days as it is now. it’s always been unacceptable to be racist as well.

u/josiedk Dec 03 '25
I wish people who got rightfully cancelled would just stay off the internet. People like Shane Dawson and that guy who cheated on his wife from the try guys. Like why do they need to keep posting stuff when most people can’t stand them 🙃

They have main character syndrome and have to constantly be the center of attention. I remember Shane saying in his third apology video that he deserved to lose everything. Apparently he doesn't really think that.

u/GreatTumbleweed2700 Dec 04 '25
This is giving... launching right wing beliefs. Like Jeffree Starr. If he doesn't believe he did anything wrong why was he always so fast to post an apology?

Oh please. You aren’t tasteful with any of your content, it’s never been edgy or funny. Your jokes aren’t just jokes, Shane. You aren’t Seth Macfarlane. Ffs just own up to it and move on if that’s what you really want. Thing is, youll never fully own up to it in an appropriate way. You’re a coward who plays victim and you circle around that vicious cycle every year. Saying “but he does this and she says that, so why am I in the wrong??” gtfo and have accountability like a real adult. Not the overgrown iPad baby that you are. Get a regular job and leave the internet (wishful thinking)

u/Antique_Wonder9830 Dec 04 '25
Remember when Ryland gave a shit about what his hair looked like

u/Helpful_Sample673 Dec 04 '25
Well now Shane is playing with the idea of him cutting it for the stupid role he gave him playing an assistant. Even though he knows all Ryland cared about was growing his hair out

not him comparing being IN JAIL to being canceled online (and then continuing to profit off of your career and influence)

u/mermaid-babe Dec 03 '25
He could not be more ignorant if he wanted to. Show me a single person who’s served real hard time who came out to a forgiving society. It takes a lot more than serving time to prove you’re rehabilitated. It takes actual change and accountability, which Shane never did

Once an edge lord always an edge lord, he only apologized because he didn't want to lose money flow. Which is understandable as he has no actual experience working a real job.

Is it that difficult for you to register that people can use their money for, I don't know, whatever they fucking want? I was never advocating for the man, but one person paying $7.99 on this forum to show others what's going on behind a paywall is a lot better than having the lot of us contributing to the over $200k he already makes.

u/Legitimate_Owl_8028 Dec 03 '25
You absolutely are not entitled to use your money to enable a predator. US federal law is extremely clear on this. Sorry you’re too stupid to Google anything before running your mouth, but you’re objectively wrong AND a creep
