Acheeto is a content creator who makes videos in the same vein as videos Leafy used to make.
Videos that are intended to offend people, point out sensitive people in society,
and mock people who are easy targets. Which I have nothing against.
I think there's completely a space in the internet for people who make
that type of content, and I think it would be a waste of time for
me to pretend to be morally above it, and try and grandstand in this video.
Instead, I'm just gonna laugh at Acheeto,
for being about as sensitive as he always calls out other people for being.
So, before I do begin this video, I do want to make two things very clear.
Firstly, I don't support Weest in any capacity, I genuinely think that he's
made mistakes in this situation, and I'm not going to pretend to defend his actions.
And secondly, I have nothing against ACheeto in any capacity, I just think he made a cringe video.
I think he made some bad points, and I think if he's willing to make videos
every-single-day criticizing other people,
he should also be open to people criticizing himself in the exact same way. Oh, and also,
if you're new to the channel, you know the drill, the normal YouTube spiel.
If you are new to the channel, subscribe. I'd appreciate the support. I'm aiming for 100k
and we're almost there. That goal, once I achieve it, is gonna be lit.
I make more content just like this video every-single-day.
So, if you're interested in other videos, like this one,
you can go watch them. If you'd like to support my Twitter too,
I would also appreciate that. I'm aiming for 10k followers over there,
in the next few months, and I have a Discord, if you'd like to communicate with my community,
and also get notifications on videos when Youtube doesn't give you them.
With that being said, let me give you some background on the situation.
Weest made a stream on Easter Sunday titled
'Easter isn't a Holiday. Jesus is Dead. Why is There a Rabbit?'
This title is presumed to be a joke, by a dude who isn't very funny.
One of Acheeto's friends, and another content creator,
Vince then comes in the chat and says.
"You're actually an as*h*le for that title,
this is why you get zero viewers and you're an unfunny loser, kill yourself."
Which, in my opinion, is worse than the Weest title,
but Vince did apologize for this,
and after not receiving an apology, in private, from Weest
Acheeto decides to make his first video, in which he says the following.
ACHEETO: "Now, I've known about this guy for a while, I believe he was
in some previous drama a couple years ago, and that's how I heard his name.
But over the past two weeks, this guy has done some pretty shi*ty things,
and I have not seen anybody talking about this,
and I want this guy to face some repercussions for his actions."
Now, this is what I find so bizarre about this video, Acheeto, since this video's release,
has continually tried to explain that there was no intent here to either de-platform
Weest, or make him lose sponsors, or cause any kind of impact on his career.
Yet within this video he says various statements like the following.
ACHEETO: "You're washed up, you are a loser, your videos suck,
all you do is play video games, smoke weed, and say stupid sh*t online.
You are a sad person. ...and I want this guy to face some repercussions for his actions.
I've made a couple of videos talking about why cancel culture is bad, and
I completely stand by everything I said,
but this guy is such a piece of sh*t that I do want him to be canceled.
Now, I'm just curious if G FUEL would be interested to hear what he's saying on stream,
but I didn't know that they would partner with people like Weest, who are just bad people.
I mean, I guess it makes sense, bad energy drink company partners with a bad streamer,
with bad morals, makes a lot of sense to me.
But if nothing comes of this video,
I think I'm gonna sleep okay at night knowing that this guy's going to hell."
Like the intent here is so obvious he might as well have wrote in red
text, in the center of the screen,
that he was trying to ruin Weest career. he talks about how bad Weest videos are,
how much of a loser he is, how he's going to hell, for what he said on this stream.
Which is really bizarre from the same dude who always mocks cancel culture,
and it gives off the impression, to me at least, that he thinks it's only okay to mock groups
he doesn't fall into; and when it becomes jokes against groups he's a part of, he expresses the
belief that these jokes are bigotry, and that the person who makes
them should be cancelled. It's also *glaringly* obvious
what this video was intended to do, he talks about how he wants Weest to
face repercussions, how he wants Weest to be canceled, he brings attention to Weest
sponsored G FUEL, *within* a video where he exposes Weest for being a bigoted person.
Which could lead to Weest losing his sponsor,
while also attacking the quality of the sponsor's product.
It seems so out of character for Acheeto to get so bent out of shape,
over a joke, that's so clearly doesn't offend anyone, and
is pretty much the exact same type of joke,
or statement, he would have made towards a different group.
It feels almost as if he can dish out, but he really can't take it,
especially when clips like this exist of him debating gender politics on a stream.
Which arguably, I'd think would also fall under his definition of bigotry,
based on what he expresses within this video.
ACHEETO: "Well I [uh] yeah I don't believe in non-binary as a [uh]
like descriptor of somebody.
BUNK: "So-"
ACHEETO: "The way that you explain non-binary, would make it real
because you explain it in a way that is not what it actually is.
Because you explain -"
BUNK: "What is non-binary to you?"
ACHEETO: "[um] Well the way that I understand it is,
it's that people that believe that they
[um] don't fall into the like gender binary at all.
Which is it's impossible."
BUNK: "[um] But it seems that we all agree that these are things, that are true.
Right? Would you agree that there's different ways people express themselves?"
ACHEETO: "Yeah."
BUNK: "Yeah, would you say those are the exact same?"
ACHEETO: "I think that what you extrapolate from that, in the sense that you don't
believe there is two genders is wrong, but you know. Yeah, but it's not gender."
BUNK: "Why? Why shouldn't it be?"
ACHEETO: "[hmm] Because by that logic, like
wearing like different color t-shirts, would also be like gender."
BUNK: "Yeah, that is form of gender expression."
ACHEETO: "Dude that's... [laughs] dude come on [laughs]."
BUNK: "Yeah, no, so if we say that, like for an example, [um] wearing
makeup could be something that could be expressing [um] some kind of gender. Right?
[uh] wearing, for an example, I've gotten all pink,
maybe I wear like a skirt, I have certain types of makeup on,
I could be expressing an incredibly feminine way.
I think these - all these components would play -"
ACHEETO: "That doesn't change your gender though, it doesn't even change your gender identity,
or if they're a male, it doesn't change the fact that they're a male."
Throughout this debate with Bunk,
Acheeto represents this opinion in various different ways,
and I'd argue, under Acheeto's definition of bigotry,
it would also fall under the same category.
If you can't say, 'god isn't real,' on a stream,
without receiving backlash, and deserving to be cancelled, according to Acheeto.
Why is it acceptable to go on a person, whose non-binary,
stream and tell them it isn't a real thing?
My point isn't that Acheeto holds any kind of bigoted view, because I think
that most of Acheeto's misunderstanding is based on a lack of education.
However, I do think it's incredibly hypocritical for one thing to be okay, but the other not to be.
I think it shows Acheeto as an unreliable narrator,
when it comes to the subject of religion,
considering Acheeto seemingly got offended by Weest's stream,
and as such he went on to try and get Weest cancelled.
What Acheeto said in that stream, was no more a joke than Weest said,
and I'd argue they are both equally as wrong.
If I tried to cancel Acheeto, over what he said during that debate about non-binary people,
I'm sure he'd argue that I would be completely out of my mind.
As if that was something unacceptable to do, but when it comes to religion,
in his mind, he's perfectly within his right to wish for Weest to be cancelled,
and it all seems really hypocritical the
further you go through this video with that information in mind.
For someone who often satirizes SJW culture, he kind of sounds like an SJW.
ACHEETO: "I am all for edgy humor, this is not edgy humor, this is just
bigotry. The fact that this guy never got banned on twitch, after having a stream title like this,
and saying some incredibly outrageous things during this stream, blows my mind.
Twitch is a platform where you can get banned for saying the word, ret*rd, but this guy can just go
out here saying 'rip bozo, jesus is dead,' and not get any sort of ban or anything like that okay."
Do you see what I mean? He seems so sensitive, so up his own a*s about how right he is,
and then goes on to attack Twitch, as a platform, for not banning Weest.
ACHEETO: "Twitch, you are a shitty company that platforms people like this. Anyways,
one of my friends, Vince,
who has been on a couple of my videos, actually ended up seeing this live stream happen live,
and the original stream title was actually a lot worse I think. It was like
"Jesus is Fake. RIP Bozo' or something, and my friend Vince, obviously seeing that title,
and him and I are both Christians, on Easter Sunday, obviously seeing that title really made
him upset. So, in chat he said something like, 'You're actually an a*sh*le for that title,
this is why you get zero viewers and you're an unfunny loser kys.'
Listen, obviously I don't support the last part of that message,
you know the 'kys,' kind of uncalled for,
but I absolutely do see why he would be this upset.
Like I'm not justifying what he said, but I can see where that's coming from."
Acheeto, would then go on to continue platforming Vince's several other collabs past this point.
If what Weest did is wrong, then what Vince did is wrong, and if you believe Weest
should be de-platformed, you should believe that Vince should be the platform too.
But I suppose your morals are going to remain inconsistent,
because he didn't offend a group you're personally part of, or tell you to kys.
Like, surely if you're making videos saying that Weest should be de-platformed,
you should hold that same view about Vince,
and maybe you can argue because Vince apologized you're okay with it.
But if Weest apologized would that resolve you wanting him to be de-platformed?
That seems like a massive leap in logic from, 'I want him to be de-platformed,
oh he said sorry never-mind he can, he can go back to the usual.'
If you're that flippant on your opinions on people.
probably shouldn't be making commentary videos about them.
ACHEETO: "And after sending this message in Twitch chat,
this is what Weest responded with." WEEST: "'You're actually an asshole for
that title, this is why you get zero viewers and you're an unfunny loser kill yourself.'
Bro there's literally Twitch staff in chat you're so, you're so dumb.
You're so dumb and silly, you're just mad that Jesus died, L, RIP bozo dude, RIP bozo.
If he was really god, he would have came back twice."
So Weest saying, 'RIP bozo, L,' is not a joke to you? That's just bigotry?
So, how do you determine bigotry? Is it only a joke when you're saying it,
or is it not a joke when it offends a group you're a part of?
When does it not become a joke to you, Acheeto?
Because like... I'd argue that was a pretty obvious joke.
ACHEETO: "And it's not just him being edgy,
he's just doing this to make people mad and to annoy people.
There is no comedic value in this, there is no entertainment value in
this, he is simply being a bad person for the sake of it. Why? I don't know."
I have no idea how Acheeto will ever be able to
call someone sensitive in a video again past this point;
because this is by far the most sensitive video I've
seen from any kind of commentator in the 'Leafy Era.'
Someone makes a joke he doesn't like, so makes a full-on video saying they should be de-platformed,
and mentions their sponsors, in a vain effort to likely make them lose them.
Okay dude. And you say you don't like cancel culture?
Like I totally understand that you've walked back many of these points, but you should
still be open to criticism on them, especially because this is a video still on your channel.
ACHEETO: "Now, if it wasn't bad enough, after saying what he just said,
and the fact that Twitch hasn't done anything, he tells his chat to grab Vince's IP address.
Which, again, already bad enough, but Vince is a minor, he's 16.
I don't know why you would think this is a good idea Weest.
You're out of your mind."
Jesus! Sorry, not Jesus, he might... f*ck really bad wording.
Damn! He's got some bold... serious claims here,
that Weest was trying to get Vince doxxed in his chat.
We'll have to see the evidence!
WEEST: "Dude, literally millions in the audience agree, chat post his IP address.
[laughs]
ACHEETO: "Oh, hahaha, that's really funny dude. A 24 year old grown man getting his chat riled
up against a 16 year old. All because that 16 year old believes in Jesus? Yeah dude, got him.
Now, after telling his chat to grab Vince's IP address, he goes 'no I'm actually joking guys,
don't do it' which, I don't know, it doesn't seem like he was joking at all."
Oh, it was a a self-admitted joke by Weest.
I'm beginning to think Acheeto just doesn't like jokes,
and doesn't view them as jokes when it benefits him in his video.
And to constantly bring up the fact Vince is a minor, in some vain attempt to make it look
like this was a much worse action. And to make the audience feel sympathy for Vince,
it feels like he's really pulling at strings to try and find some justified
reason to de-platform Weest, because he didn't like the fact Weest made a religious joke.
ACHEETO: "I feel like he knew that he had to say that,
because like he said there's Twitch staff in his chat."
I think you're desperately looking for a way to downplay the fact Vince told him to kys,
and look for a justified reason to de-platform him
by taking his joke and trying to imply he was lying about it being a joke.
Like what?
ACHEETO: "Now, I actually got this guy in a private discord call with me and Vince,
and explained to him what he did.
Because he may not have known that Vince was 16, and I explained that to him. And
instead of being like, 'oh I'm sorry dude that was actually inappropriate.'
He ends up just dying of laughter, and leaving the call,
and then removing me as a friend on Discord."
What was the expected outcome here? You come to a dude, and tell him his jokes weren't jokes,
and that you've determined, by your own logic, that he was
serious about this, and that he'd tried to doxx
someone, regardless of him saying it was a joke, and then bring up the fact that he was bigoted.
And you expected him to like calmly and correctly go 'I am sincerely sorry for what I've done.'
Of course he was going to laugh at you. Why would he fucking care? You seem like a weirdo.
ACHEETO: Anyways, if we go to his Twitter we can see that his veins are full of @gfuelenergy.
Now, I'm just curious if G FUEL would be interested to hear what he's saying on stream.
You know, threatening to dox a 16 year old, making bigoted comments toward religious folks.
I mean, I know that G FUEL is a shi*ty company,
like G FUEL drinks themselves are just disgusting and awful,
but I didn't know that they would partner with people like Weest, who are just bad people."
Isn't this the exact thing every creator came out and denounced during the H3H3 and Keemstar drama?
Attacking people's sponsors within a video,
with the obvious and clear intent to highlight them and send your audience to go attack them.
ACHEETO: Now, I'm not gonna actually reach out to G FUEL to try to get him unpartnered or something.
I'm just including the fact that he's fully sponsored, as a point,
to show that companies actually literally don't care if you're hateful towards people,
that society deems it's okay to be hateful towards.
So, instead he makes an entire video dragging their name through the mud
and trying to imply they associate with and endorse bigoted actions.
Surely, this is way more harmful to their brand, and way more of an issue, and way more likely to make
them drop Weest than any kind of report email or private contact would ever do.
Yet Acheeto constantly brings this point up, as if it absolves him of any kind of fault,
for directly linking G FUEL to a video where he calls someone bigoted,
alleges they intended to dox a 16 year old, etc.
However, Acheeto has acknowledged wrongdoing within this video,
and acknowledged that what he said within this video, especially points
we're he brought up the sponsor, and said he wanted Weest to be cancelled
with things he no longer agrees with. Which is fine, this video simply
here is a way of criticizing him, giving my opinion on the situation,
and highlighting that I think this dude's morals are very inconsistent,
and he comes off as very hypocritical.
If you disagree, perfectly fine, I'm willing to hear any opinions on this situation.
At the end of the day, I'm just a person on the internet giving
my opinions on another person on the internet.
Well everyone in this situation profits! That's been all from me today, if you are

Thank you for watching! No hard feelings of Acheeto, I don't hate you or ever,
we can both remain following each other on Twitter, and be best friends as usual.
Just my opinion, though I presume you're probably gonna make some sort
of angry post about me following this, and how I'm like Satan's born going to
H*ll for this video [laughs]. I'll see you next time, peace!
