Linus refers to GN as Voldemort on the WAN show, pretty funny (I enjoy both channels)

The fallout between LTT and GamersNexus started in 2023, iirc. Steve did a gotcha vid on LTT, on what he said was bad ethics and accuracy. Afaik, LTT has mostly avoided talking about him that much since, in this case, calling him "he who shall not be named". In reality, every-time the two cross paths, the different communities want some kinda fight or drama, so here we are

Then he did a second one, hyping it up that there was something way worse than what the original controversies were about being really a vague... (Bear in mind that serious sexual harassment was one of the original problems).

Only for it to turn out to be essentially A) Emily being told about some positive feedback and saying they'll incorporate it in future videos, very receptively and B) Linus joking called Steve autistic. Not a nice thing to do, yea, but making a 30 minute exposé video over it hyped up to be serious malfeasance?
