In the midsts of allegations of sexual assault made against prominent members of the YouTube community, Alex Day was accused of being emotionally manipulative and engaging in sex with people who weren't consenting. Danny Hooper was accused of having sex with a minor. Having moved in the same circles as some of the accusers I can confirm these accusations were not fabricated to jump on any sort of bandwagon. Both Alex and Danny have been acused of abusing their positions of power over the people that support them. Continuing to support them only helps them move back to a point where they could conceivably do it again. There is a reason this blog hasn't been updated in two years, and that's because I started hearing stories of how they'd been manipulative scumbags. Then more people started independently corroborating the evidence with stories of their own and it got too much not to take seriously. Stories from survivors can be found in the list above, which is sadly very long. As it says at the bottom, try to come to your own conclusions about this. Read the accounts from those who had the immense bravery to come forward and decide what you think about the whole thing.
