Didn't Exurb1a do something bad?
I found this after a little bit
He raped Pieke Roelofs (who collaborated with him on youtube) and harrassed her to cover it up. He was even too shitty for reddit mods
The Dutch authorities found him responsible but declined to charge him
Roelofs founded Stichting Cassandra, a foundation that defends the interests of victims of sexual and psychological violence
Yeah I don't really feel like watching his video now, probably shouldn't take life/self reflection advice from someone who does that kinda shit
I haven't heard anything
I follow them pretty regularly on YouTube
A couple years ago he was accused of sexual assault iirc and he and a bunch of his fans did everything possible to sweep it under the rug basically
After some digging, it looks like he was accused but never charged
The police bungled the case (along with a bunch of other similar cases) so they never brought charges against him or a lot of other people.
Pretty shitty though that the police came out and said he was responsible and didn't bring charges. If they're confident enough to make a statement like that then they should be confident enough to charge someone.
I'm in the camp of "innocent until proven guilty" so even though there's an accusation I'm still not going to fully dump the dude
