alright alright so some of the biggest news going around right now is how spill
was exposed as an actual company you to creators like D'Angelo Wallace and Petty
Paige have made videos about this more and more people are talking about it but
in this video I don't want to discuss why spill being a company isn't
necessarily a bad thing what is up everybody this is Chris from the rewired
soul where we talk about the problem but focus on the solution and if you're new
to my channel what I try to do is take different topics going on in the YouTube
community and try to see what lessons we can pull from them to improve our own
mental and emotional well-being so if you're into that stuff make sure you
subscribe and ring that notification bell and those of you who don't know
because I'm going to be touching on some of these topics in this video my brand
new book cancelled inside YouTube cancel culture is out now check out the
description check out the pin comment down below it's over at my website so if
you want to kind of a behind-the-scenes look about canceled culture in the
YouTube community I share my own personal experience I
talk about some experiences of others that have gone on in the YouTube
community but check it out there's an e-book and an audio book available
alright so yeah to catch up to speed DeAngelo Wallace you know he came out
with his video that went viral about Spill possibly being a company and then
Patti Page I had a bunch of people leave me comments and message me about petty
pages video or her series about spill and yeah some of you came to my channel
because you saw my original video titled why I hate spill alright
hey anyways yeah it looks like spill is a company this is a theory that I've had
for a very long time and now it's true so in this video we're gonna be talking
about why that's not necessarily a bad thing all right but first let's talk
about some of the bad things all right like one of the one of the main things
that we need to talk about is like deception okay like this is something
that is a growing problem on YouTube he'll look at the Tana mojo and Jay Paul
situation right like YouTube was this platform
that was originally created for like authenticity for creators to hop on and
you know be themselves and everything like that and we're starting to see this
kind of blurred line where we don't necessarily know what's real and what's
not real so my biggest issue with spill is just
trying to promote the the idea the reality that they are just some kids
working on this and they even made their own video to kind of expose themselves
and it's just like you guys just just come out with it and I think DeAngelo
Wallace did a great job discussing why companies and corporations try to
humanize themselves a little bit more especially in this day and age of social
media and you know it's something like let's talk about Jarvis Johnson if
you're not subscribed to Jarvis you best go subscribe to Jarvis right but Jarvis
has talked about this multiple times like when he you know reviews like
different corporate Twitter accounts and how they interact and like you know just
trying to be like actual people and stuff like that but when it comes to
spill when we're talking about you know promoting this idea that you know this
is the reality when it's really not like Jarvis does a lot of videos on the
channel the YouTube channel actually happened it's an animated channel where
they promote these stories as being a wheel even though there's evidence to
support that they're not real so deception is just it's something that is
it's it's tricky in this day and age with social media because social media
is supposed to be like real people doing their thing because like we already
spent the last you know almost hundred years with you know TV shows and
corporations doing this thing and YouTube was supposed to be this platform
of authenticity and things like that now for those of you who didn't watch my
previous video on spill like I don't have a problem with companies and
corporations coming onto YouTube so in my last video about spill I asked you
the audience I said hey how many videos do you watch on a specific topic and
most people it was anywhere from like three to five some people said six or
seven right so I don't I don't agree with the idea that
you know companies coming in is going to take away views from other channels and
individual creators because that's not what happens alright people watch
multiple videos like just because you're subscribed to one channel doesn't mean
you're not subscribed to another alright sometimes you would prefer to watch a
video from this creator than another but I'm actually really proud of you
the audience alright because a lot of you said that you watch multiple videos
on a subject to get different perspectives to help you form your own
opinions something that I get worried about a lot when it comes to canceled
culture and mob mentality is just you know just following what everybody else
says so I'm really proud of anybody who's watching you know different videos
to get different perspectives on situations but yeah it seems like Spill
being a company they're trying to do what they see works on YouTube right
which is drama which is animation they even started their their new channels
and stuff and they're taking these different angles of successful genres on
YouTube alright so let's talk about why this isn't necessarily a bad thing and
drama channels out there commentary channels out there I'm sorry but I'm
just gonna speak the truth alright so the first thing is my original video why
I hate spill right like there's so many comments like you're just jealous you're
just jealous and yes it was a video about jealousy
and what we do when we start to get jealous or envious of other people so
like here's a thing like I know a lot of drama channels and you know people out
there trying to expose spill they're they're trying to be like aha look I'm
doing this for the greater good like they are full of it if there are if
they aren't willing to admit that there's some jealousy behind this like
it's it sucks it sucks like watching spills growth and how they did it and
all the effort that they can put in to a video that us individual creators can't
like it sucks right but like it's it's something that we
just have to deal with it's the same as when you open up a mom-and-pop store in
your town and there's a Walmart across the street
they have more resources they have more money and they could do that you know
what I mean but in this digital platform we're not at the same risk as a
mom-and-pop store of being put out of business by these people but I think
that's part of part of that fear but I think it would be helpful if the other
drama channels or commentary channels or news channels would just admit that like
part of it is just like wishing that you know wishing that we could do what spill
does with the animation the research the captioning all of that stuff you know
what I mean so the biggest reason why spill being on YouTube isn't a bad thing
is because of drama channel bias all right like I look at this constantly
because I'm researching different topics and everything like that to get ideas of
how what angles I want to take and everything and you guys like it is clear
as day that influencers specifically people in the beauty community or just
kind of in that that realm like man they manipulate the hell out of drama
channels and I was thinking about doing a whole separate video about this and I
might but you guys like there's such a bias and when it comes to spill since
they're trying to take a more journalistic approach and they are a
company like you can kind of rest be rest assured that there are opinions on
certain subjects aren't going to be swayed like if you guys pay attention
check out your favorite drama channels right and look at how they cover
different influencers there are different influencers that each drama
channel wants to you know kind of be friends with or get clout from you know
or whatever and you could see like when they cover stories about those people
they're very soft they're very light but then there's other influencers who they
don't like who that want nothing to do with and they are so hard on them you
see what I mean like there is such a bias like you guys like and you see
these influencers like hang out and do collabs with these drama channels like
I want you to do this if you think that I'm crazy all right
I think it's cool when influencers hang out with like the drama channels or
commentary channels or whoever I love with influencers interact but it does
sway their opinion so if you think I'm crazy go watch some collabs that have
been done like okay did this influencer like I know Jeffree Star hung out with
some channels I know that Trisha Paytas has hung out with some channels alright
so check out those channels who they hung out with see how they cover stories
about the people they've hung out with versus how they cover stories about
other people specifically people like Jacqueline Hill people like James
Charles Wright so there is this major bias that's happening with these stories
that are getting covered where it's like these drama channels are almost holding
influencers hostage like listen if you're not nice to me if you don't hang
out with me I'm gonna come after you in videos right and this is something that
we don't have to worry about with spill so not only a spill well-researched
right and the production's great and they go really in depth we also don't
really have to worry about them being influenced for the sake of like clout or
being friends with these big influencers all right but the last thing I want to
talk about and this is something that I talk about in my book cancelled
extensively and it's just the reality of it all of us channels whether you do
commentary drama news like with exceptions like Philip DeFranco and a
few others like there is no journalistic standard or integrity that has to be
upheld all right like I - quite a few journalists who cover like YouTube
stories and stuff like that and here's what I mean like when drama channels and
commentary channels and news channels when they put information out there like
they they have no no responsibility when it comes to it like there are so many
situations where they have put out lies or misinformation and there are no
repercussions like I watched so many stories and I
I've talked with different journalists I'm like what would happen at your job
if you release this story and it was found out to be wrong like we have seen
so many times lately they're like oh I get fired right or or we get sued
because an actual media company they would get the crap suit out of them if
they said some of these things that drama channels commentary channels
everything like that like the misinformation like YouTube channels
they don't have to do retractions they don't have to correct stories and listen
this is something that I'm really passionate about because it happened to
me it happened to me there are dozens and dozens and dozens of videos out
there that are just spreading lies and misinformation about me and nothing can
be done about it so when it comes to spill like you go spill do your damn
thing right because at least they're trying to take a journalistic approach
when it comes to these things they're trying to get stories right so when you
combine that with them not having this kind of bias of being swayed by
different influencers like more power to them so some of you watching this you
know my history there is an infamous Trisha Paytas apology video I put that
in quotes because it wasn't really a Trisha Paytas apology video that was
deleted and if you read my book I discuss this story in detail but that
that video like I was seriously considering like looking into legal
options because of the slander that was happening about me all right and with
the people I talked to who understand law and everything like that like yeah
Chris you have a case you have a case and you can go after these people but
one of the issues is is when you're an independent creator right if you take
legal action against another creator it is pretty much career suicide right like
imagine what would happen less and like that's one of the reasons I didn't do it
because I didn't want to set that precedent so like I get why people are
upset about spill being a company and you know
trying to make it seem as though you know they're one person but like I
appreciate that spill is covering these topics in a way that actually has some
integrity behind it because we don't have to worry nearly as much about bias
slander and all those other things all right so you may completely disagree
with me but I'm telling you right now company or not spill is still the best
tea channel drama channel whatever you want to call it on the platform
