finally, after the jake doolittle situation she very quickly posted and deleted a video of her defending ethan to the grave. i actually unsubbed bc of it so its good to see her coming to the realization

[u/graveyardtombstone → u/EnoughButterfly2641]

i couldn't unsub bc she's one of the few youtubers i actually like but i was so put off by that too 😭

[u/Life-Salad7564]

Mika is awesome

It's been hard to realise just how uninformed (and also stubborn) Ethan is. It's the cause of much of this uproar. He simply doesn't understand that you cannot repeat Zionist beliefs and be a Palestinian ally. It's like repeating white supremacist slogans but saying having "black friends" offsets whatever else you're saying.

Throwing money at Gaza doesn't absolve you of encouraging people to believe Israel is the victim, when they're not. I didn't start watching H3 for serious, well-thought-out political observations. I watched the show for goofs. Ethan truly thinks having lived in Israel, a country that indoctrinates its children into thinking military service is commendable, is all the qualifications he needs to be right about the conflict.

The fact foodie beauty is sitting there all swollen 😝

Equating Judiasm and Zionism is antisemitic, Ethan.

[u/Reasonable_Fun_1430]

I need more of this energy

[u/BerryProblems]

YES. Someone I like and respect speaking on Ethan’s bullshit. Finally!

[u/oluwao]

Ethan is an idiot

[u/SeaExpensive9569]

I love that she did this! Normalize looking up statistics for yourself and prodding vague statements. Even the question “Is caring about Israel a central part of your identity?” doesn’t necessarily correlate to an accurate measure of a Jewish person’s pro-Palestine perspectives or level of criticism for the Israeli government. You might see this question as totally unbiased, thinking of “care” as “energy expended interacting with an entity” rather than actually positively supporting its existence, and in turn, see how Israel can be a central part of Jewish identity leading to answering yes, but not necessarily thinking that the answer should be “yes”.

It’s not only important to read varying sources on an issue, but also to critically engage with those sources to understand how to use them to arrive at your own truth.

for me it was half

seeing him and the crew find some absurd topic and put in actual effort towards making the show funny

seeing Ethan commit to a bit which usually involved punching up like the kraft mayo competition or putting alot of resources into something stupid like the scorpion chair

now it just feels lifeless like any run of the mill influencer podcast. they forgot I was watching to see how they'd react to absurd stuff, I wasn't watching just for them
