So my brother told me I should just say something. If you go check the archive of Isaac's stream, there's literally a clip of me saying in the chat that I'm 13. He saw it, didn't kick me out, just kept talking to me, and that same stream he's getting into kink stuff. Same stream he posts his Discord. I add him, he accepts, even knowing I'm the same kid who just said in chat she's 13.
Then he makes this Patreon-only server. Tells me I can't join but we can still talk in DMs. So we do .And after that it's just... a lot of sexual conversations. He showed me porn he was working on. I felt so mature at the time, like such a big deal, because he kept telling me how mature I was for my age. And I ate that up.
I mean I was a kid and a YouTuber I actually looked up to was paying attention to me. That felt huge. I didn't have the ability to see how wrong it all was, I just felt special.He'd also get me riled up against people he didn't like. Anyone left a bad comment about him, didn't matter how old, he'd find it somehow.
Then he'd vent to me about them, go fight them in the comments himself, get his friends to pile on too. It'd turn into these whole mob moments. And I look up to this guy, so I'm taking his side in fights that have nothing to do with me.
One thing that's wild to think about now, knowing what I know: someone called him a proshipper once, way before the whole Duncan thing. A friend of his found out about a ship he'd joked about, said it weirded them out. Isaac argued back that both characters were adults so it didn't count. They didn't agree, called him out for it, he banned them.
Then for days he's venting to me about it. Asking me over and over if I think he's a proshipper. I said no. Looking back I don't even think I meant it, I just said what he wanted to hear. Thinking back on it now, I basically became his therapist. Every time someone criticized him or his ego got bruised, he came to me. He had actual adult friends he could've gone to. Instead he chose a kid.
His Discord's gone now and I don't even know how I feel about that. Kind of like a door slammed shut before I got to actually deal with any of it. I don't know how I'd even prove this stuff now. Maybe I post the messages, maybe I don't, still haven't decided .But I had to say it somewhere. Whether anyone believes me or not, it feels good to finally just put it out there.
I'm so sorry. I remember something akin to this happening, but Isaac claimed he immediately removed you from the stream.
My advice is to send the messages to an adult you trust so that they can publicize them, OR keep them private and look into pressing charges. I know it'll seem incredibly scary, but that evidence will be crucial in giving Isaac consequences to the things he's done. You won't be in any trouble for coming forward.
