I used to be a fan of Shane's years ago (mostly 2012 - 2014 I think?), then stopped watching only to re-discover him about two years ago; I've been hate-watching ever since. So recently when the whole cat fucking controversy came up, it got me thinking about how abnoxious Shane used to be (well, still is, except now he's pretend-woke) and nobody would even bat an eyelid.
And then, all of a sudden I remembered the reason why I stopped being a fan in the first place! I can't believe I forgot about it!! It was some collaboration video (I can't for the life of me remember who the other youtuber was) in which he admitted that given a chance to rape someone, if no-one would ever find out and he would face no consequences whatsoever, he would totally do it. Now I know that people are relatively aware that he used to make rape jokes all the time, but this was on a whole another level. It wasn't in the context of a comedy skit, but rather some sort of confession video (would you rather??truth or dare? I have no idea). Does this ring any bells? I've been scrolling down both of his channels searching for that video, but with no success.
I don't remember this but it honestly wouldn't even surprise me if that was something he said. I recently went back and watched some of his older videos and I had straight up forgotten how sick his jokes were. One of the gems I recently watched: his character wants lisa to get pregnant, so he puts an ad up for her on craigslist with her bright and smiling face next to the words "f* me til I bleed". Then that wasn't offensive enough, so he uses chloroform on her, jokes about Casey Anthony, and the video ends with Lisa getting carried off by a man who murders her.
How often do you have to repeat the same jokes before everyone catches on that they're really not jokes to you? Can't help but think a lot of Shane's offensive 'humor' is rooted in reality. Maybe him saying he would rape someone was "shock comedy", but I'm sure it holds some fragment of truth.
I mean we know he has a porn addiction, so it's not a stretch to imagine he has some awful fetishes. A short list of the things he's joked about sexually: men, women, strangers, his dad, ryland's dad, dogs, cats, horses, children. I get the feeling that Shane's childhood seriously fucked him up and he never learned how to properly cope.
