so it looks like kavos just made
another video on ImAllexx it's been a
couple years but he made a video on ImAllexx ecalls Alex out for a variety of
different things such as being
hypocritical about not caring about
money possibly being a bad friend as
well as unfairly taking the moral high
ground in a lot of situations and it's
something that we need to talk about and
when I look at this story something that
one of my mentors says to me is on a
long enough timeline
everybody is a hypocrite what is up
everybody this is Chris from the rewired
soul where we talk about the problem but
focus on the solution and if you're new
to my channel what I try to do is take
different topics from the YouTube
community try to see what lessons we can
pull from them to improve our own mental
and emotional well-being so if you're
into that stuff make sure you subscribe
and ring that notification bell and in
case you didn't know I write some books
too so my brand new book rewire your
anxiety is out now it's available in
both ebook and audiobook format so check
out the description and the pin comment
down below if you're interested in
checking that book out alright so yeah
let's jump into this and again I want
everybody when we look at these
situations like to look at yourself look
at your own relationships and things
like that but I like to use what's going
on in the YouTube community to kind of
give context because a lot of us can
relate to things going on so anyways
just to give you kind of a recap
breakdown of what's going on so call
those just release the video calling out
ImAllexx and he calls them out on a
variety of different things so Carlos
and iron Alex they they have a little
bit of a history they used to butt heads
a lot I think I first realized this when
I was first getting into YouTube
I think Kavos so I pulled out philip
defranco for Philip defranco's like
patreon and then I'm Alex like defended
philip defranco and set some stuff to
Cabos or whatever the case may be but
anyways carlos has been sitting back
watching this thing
and he finally made a video about it and
we're gonna touch on different points
I'm gonna give my opinions and also just
my personal experience with you know
what's happened in my own life and maybe
some of us can learn from it now one
thing I will touch on real quick like
some people tweeted at me I guess
keemstar and colossal clown like they
brought back the baited podcast and the
entire podcast is dedicated to I now
it's being this terrible person and let
me say this like just real quick like
keemstar
talks about how like something happened
with on Alex three years ago three years
ago and cube stark said you know what I
don't care when it is I'm gonna expose
ImAllexx like yo talk about holding on
to a grudge like how many of you out
there can relate to that like I used to
be like that where I would hold on to a
grudge for so long and just waiting
waiting for the opportunity to expose
like yo that's not healthy that's not
healthy for any of us to hold on to
something that long and it's interesting
too because some of us you know we we
get this joy we're just waiting for
someone to fall waiting for someone to
screw up right and to get this justice
but in most cases like the the joy if
you will that we feel is very
short-lived alright but anyways one of
the main things that combos touched on
or started his video out with keemstar
talked about it a lot on the beta
podcast only both those down below like
who star was on one last I have a list
Kavos talks about how I'm Alex you know
supposedly says he doesn't care about
money but he sells merged alright and
this comes from a clip that Carlos took
from
well those of you who don't know who I'm
Alex's let me give you a fun fact about
him he's the only human on earth who
just doesn't care about money how much
of an incentive his money
huge for a lot you cheap is massive I
know I literally do not care I mean
anybody knows of Alex would say mmm
that's interesting because his Twitter
feed is just filled to the brim with
merchandise plugging and just pushing
his latest merch so I'd literally do not
count even his header for his Twitter is
his merchandise weight but if you don't
care about money why are you making
merchandise and here's my opinion on
this all right like that is such a
ridiculous thing to call on Alex out on
for like it's possible to not care about
money it's possible to not make it your
top priority but to still need money to
survive right like I'm Alex Collis they
live in the UK right we you know I live
in the United States a lot of my viewers
who live in the United States a lot of
other creators over the United States
like we need money to exchange it for
goods and services but when I look at
someone like I'm Alex saying that I'm
not hearing and this is where I think
Carlos got a twisted I'm not hearing I
don't need money I'm willing to live on
the streets in a shack you know whatever
it is it means like this isn't my main
driving force and you know if it comes
down to it you know my my morals are
going to outweigh money you see what I
mean because one of the reasons that
people are calling I'm Alex hypocritical
is because it's called out other
Creators I think like zoella in the past
for the merch that they sell and things
like that or like zoella had that advent
calendar that was like really overpriced
or whatever that whole situation was
whatever the case may be but you guys
like like I can relate because my
experience is like I made a ton of money
back in the day like back in the day
before I got clean and sober I was
making more money than I've ever made in
my life and I was absolutely miserable
okay like I haven't made nearly as much
money since I got clean and sober seven
years ago and that's okay like I still
need money to survive
that's why I have this youtube channel
that's why I write books that's why the
patriarchy that's why I have merged
that's why I have all these other things
because I have a son defeat I have a
roof to keep over my head I got to pay
for gas I gotta pay for my car you know
what I mean but I know that money will
not make me happy and something I try to
teach people is something that I learned
a long time ago money does not make us
happy if anything money decreases stress
but the more money you get it it gives
you a lot of new stresses as well and
that is what I believe I'm now actually
saying was that money is not his top
priority so the biggest thing that you
know a lot of people are talking about
is that I'm Alex and slaw so situation
so just quick recap I've done some
videos on this but Schlosser was accused
of some very serious things I'm Alex's
slaw so we're friends I'm Alex distance
himself from slaw so sauce it came back
and he pretty much showed that you know
these accusations were false but I'm
Alex kind of stuck to his guns and said
listen I don't want to be friends with
slaw so anymore and here's the thing
like as I like I'm not a fan of Cabos
but like I get it like you know what I
saw I'm Alex to do that like but you
know Alex have you ever watched this
like welcome to the club buddy like we
all screw up sometimes like here's the
thing but but here's the thing I'll be
completely honest with you like I've
gone through my own controversies and I
saw my friends you know or people I
thought were friends just scatter and
distance themselves from me so I get it
like I had to go through my own stuff at
that point and like my therapist or my
mentor does like people in my support
group they like told me that you know it
a might be affecting their mental health
or B it might affect their job and their
money if they stay in close proximity
with me you know what I mean and I just
had to accept that like I don't like it
I think it sucks would I do that to
other people probably not but I do
empathize and try to understand why
someone would distance themselves from
me right so while I don't agree with
what I'm Alex did it too slow so like I
understand I get it you know what I mean
but the other
thing is too like I I do like I do agree
that I'm Alex's reasoning behind this
like you know suazo admitting to maybe
being a controlling boyfriend as a
teenager like I don't agree with that
but who are we to judge who wants to
stay friends with who who wants to hang
out with who and things like that you
know what I mean like it could be
anything and and plus like you know
myself as a commentary channel all the
other commentary channels and people
looking at this from the outside like
there could be other things going on you
know what I mean but it's it's who are
we to say whether or not you should stay
friends with somebody you know what I
mean like from what I've seen personally
like if I was I'm Alex like I really
like look back on this like maybe he
needs a month or two to kind of like
reevaluate this but you know maybe
they'll start being friends again the
last thing that people talk about is
correcting old stories and I'm Alex is
definitely not the only one you know
guilty of this so people brought up that
he had a James Charles video that has
like 2.1 million views or something like
that it's monetized everything and it
was back when the information on James
Charles was wrong and since then I'm
Alice has made update videos right and
this is a tricky situation like
commentary channels are in a tricky
situation because obviously we talk
about topics that are current that are
trending and things like that and
stories are developing and some people
they wait like the right opinion like he
does a great job like just waiting like
he is far more patient than most of us
out there right where he'll get all the
facts and everything like something that
I've been trying to do like for example
we just talked about slaw so I had my
original sauce of videos when the
allegations first came out but when that
story was updated I took down my old
videos and in my newest video on slaw so
I explained why I took those videos down
so that is a tricky situation but it's
like look at channels like Philip
DeFranco who cover the news or look at
like regular news organizations right
like they don't completely wipe the
history of what was happening
that time they simply update the
information you know what I mean and
that is what I'm Alex did now like I
look at this with you know one of our
analysis friends I never who's like
awesome but um I remember him removing
some videos after stories got updated in
I don't know like let me know your
thoughts down in the comments below like
I'm interested in what you think like do
you think people should just update
their stories or they should they
completely erase those because here's
the thing like disciplined enols
advocate real quick and like you guys
like just watch how the community works
and everything because when you delete
things like when you completely remove
them then you have a bunch of people
accusing you of trying to hide something
so it's almost like this lose-lose
situation like something that I've
realized as a creator and just as a
human being is that you're never going
to please everyone
and make everybody happy alright and the
last thing that we'll talk about is you
know should I'm Alex be cancelled
because of the Carlos video absolutely
not absolutely not like I I fancy myself
a decent judge of character and I'm
Alice seems like you know a young dude
who's like trying his best you know what
I mean and like oh my god he's a flawed
human who makes mistakes like I can't
believe it
you know here's something that's
interesting that I hope more people
realize commentary channels are almost
like you know I don't even like using
this but like the moral police of
YouTube right like commentators are
making videos calling out certain
behaviors and when you put yourself in
that position I've done it as well right
like when we put ourselves in this
position even though we might not say it
right like Carlos was accusing and
kingster was accusing I'm Alex of like
thinking is better than everybody
everything like I've never heard I'm
Alex say I am better than everybody
model your behavior after me right but
when you're a commentary channel like
that is the expectation like if you are
pulling other people out you are
supposed to be this perfect human being
and that's just kind of what blows my
mind like I've been talking about this a
lot on Instagram lately when it just
comes to our confidence our self-esteem
like when we're like chasing perfection
or we have this idea that we're supposed
to be perfect like we're setting
ourselves up for failure like
everybody's gonna screw up like I
mentioned in the the intro of this video
like something my mentor always reminds
me is like on a long enough timeline
everybody's a hypocrite like I heard
things in Kim stars podcasts I don't
want to make this video forever where he
was being hypocritical right I was like
wait you're calling I know it's out on
stuff that you've done before - same
thing with Carlos you know what I mean
and like this can all go back and forth
forever but the reality is we're all
flawed we're all gonna make mistakes
we're all gonna do things that some
people don't agree with and here's the
last thing I want to leave you with all
right
just because you don't agree with
somebody does not mean they're a bad
person we need to distance ourselves
from this black and white thinking like
oh this person's cool this person's
alright oh wait they said something I
don't agree with they are the most awful
terrible human being on earth like think
about how ridiculous that is like would
you ever want to be held to such a high
standard where you you screw up or you
make some mistakes or you're not a
perfect human being and people are just
like oh my god this is the worst person
on earth it's like no that's ridiculous
unfair and none of us would ever want
that so why do we treat others like that
you know what I mean well let me know
your thoughts on this down in the
comments below let me know your thoughts
on I'm Alex or just a community or
commentary community in general you know
what I mean that's all I got for this
video and don't forget my brand new book
