I...don't even believe I am even typing is but... literally the entire part of Ross showing the things Pirate Software misled people with about the movement? He doesn't just mention Jason, but he fights his arguments with his own, provides facts, and pretty much debunks a bunch of stuff Jason threw and refused to discuss with Ross about.

Okay. I want you to go on that Dr.K video, and genuinely, I mean this, sincerely...at around 2:11:00...
Dr.K sums up perfectly what's wrong with Jason, and why people are treating him like he is being treated, and why it's ultimately up to him to fix the situation. Even if he doesn't want to believe any of it. I'm not sure what was with linking the Dr.K stream, but after watching it all, I feel that's a very big summary of what's the problem with Jason(and that he doesn't wanna fix for absolutely no reason).
I personally couldn't be damned about his game, or his code, or his relationship with his dad.
He still has a massive problem with lying and not admitting to the lies, or just not wanting to apologize to anyone, or to listen to anyone...
And worst of all, somehow, he doesn't even seem aware of any of these things.
No problem. I'm just surprised so many people struggle to just be civil or completely ignore anything someone is saying just because they didn't like what was said.
But nah, I haven't seen him apologize to anyone yet, his last apology was an equivalent to "I'm sorry I upset you"(the tweet is still up, by the way), and what makes matters worse is him saying on stream he refuses to make an apology, saying it with the most confident smug ever like he hadn't misled people and ignored the arguments against his misleading takes, or refusing to listen to the only people he wished to discuss, Charlie and that other guy I don't know, just because he couldn't convince them to take his side. This is the main problem I have with him and why I refuse to ever take his side or listen to him:
Refusing to listen to anyone saying no, refusing to apologize, refusing to listen to anyone giving him legitimate advice.
No matter what; HE'S ALWAYS RIGHT.
Like yeah, the attacks and all the trolling is awful, but genuinely, Jason is bringing to himself, and no one else is to blame but himself for what's happening.
Though, it seems a bit too late for him to reverse all the damage he did to himself. So I really don't know what to say, since he doesn't wanna listen to anyone but only his fans that think the same as him, it seems.
EDIT: Another thing I have a problem with is him bringing up the ferret rescue or his "employees".
Again, Jason is bringing it all to himself by being mightier than thou, having zero accountability.
If these things are being affected then it's his responsibility to course correct what's hurting those.
I'm not gonna lie, if Pirate simply apologized to people instead of apologizing for making them mad, or if he addmited he had misled people, "sorry, will do better next time", there wouldn't be so many people pursuing him? The concept is not that hard to grasp?
Like genuinely, everyone is just trying to tell him to be better so the trolls leave him alone, but PirateSoftware seems to have something against having any inch of humility and accountability, of course internet trolls are gonna be farming him. Also, he really should be treating his fans better instead of overreacting, there's a bunch who've been trying to advise him to be better.
I'm not gonna dogpile on him like everyone else but there's no way I can defend Jason's behaviour. Learn to be humble, the world is not gonna suddenly explode. Was it worth it destroying any trust any public figure or content creator has ever had of him?
And @aphrofluff as someone who previously started watching his Shorts and didn't like his tone with the Stop Killing Games response video(and later found out he lied about a bunch of things, given I've never originally read the site, but comparing his video to the site, yes, Jason needs to stop making up shit that is not in there. It's vague because the EU is the one calling the shots, not Ross. SKG is like a lightbulb. It NEEDS to be ""vague""((let's be honest, there's nothing vague about it)) or else the EU can't make compromises for developers alongside the consumers either, and it'll genuinely hurt the industry, like Jason is so worried about), here's something;
Not everything is people deciding to assess a situation from other people's conclusions, jesus christ.
People wanted him to be better and he decided to dig a hole to Narnia, it's his fault. People got the conclusion they did of him because of Jason's own actions. No one is gonna take false sympathy over cute animals or supporting a country knowing how someone really is like behind the mask.
I have my doubts this will be catched but I'm 99% sure no one will 100% read this and skip over to the parts they wanna read, and think of me as malicious.
The reason people wanted him to humble the fuck up and apologize/admit misleading, is so the stupid internet trolls would stop. Simple as that. Whatever is happening or happens to him, it remains his fault.
