For an upcoming Vlogs of Halloween video, I will be reacting to your confessions for a challenge as Sister Gavina and will choose whether or not you deserve forgiveness. I have a form you can submit through which will be completely anonymous.
It can be any kind of confession, it can be completely random, really weird, fucked up, even make it up if you want to haha I don't mind, but it will all be kept anonymous and it's all for shits and giggles.
Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with!
- (Pic 1) I was going to make a video to respond to Joshua David Evans but I desperately want to be able to move on with my life, I want to return to and focus on making videos, and so a video response doesn’t feel right to me right now. I hope that a text response will be enough to bring some closure.
Joshua David Evans has uploaded a video to his 1.1 million followers on YouTube titled “This is Goodbye” where he announces he is leaving the internet due to the backlash he has received online due to his own actions (however you would not get that vibe from just his video as he continued to seek sympathy).
I’ve had a day to think about everything and I think I can speak now. I will always appreciate when someone says “sorry”. To me, it’s a powerful word and one I will always have gratitude for. It allows me to validate my own feelings and experiences that I’ve had, and it’s something I always try to say myself whenever I have been in the wrong. I’ll even say it when I don’t feel like I’m in the wrong because I know how much it means to the other person.
I don’t want to sound ungrateful because what Joshua has given me is way more than he has given anyone else he has harmed throughout his tenure on YouTube and beyond. How can I possibly be upset at receiving the word “sorry” when there are many, many, many people who don’t even get that? But I am upset.
- (Pic 2) Had I received a private apology with acknowledgment of everything I emailed him about then I wouldn’t have an issue. Instead, he has uploaded a video that frames himself as a victim of internet cancellation and “drama”, that he had good intentions with his involvement in a documentary absolutely nobody gives a shit about anymore, says he lashed out at me as his client because he was feeling things and he’s sorry for it, says he didn’t set out to hurt anyone despite admitting to purposefully goading people online, that some people aren’t “looking for truth” and it’s a losing game anyway, and he was just a kid who loved making videos (& more).
I appreciate that I got 3 slides in his powerpoint presentation. I feel like he maybe does mean it when he apologises, despite throwing a subtle dig at Adam in the process (because he can’t just apologise to me without making it about someone else).
But there is no context. He doesn’t say who I am. He has thrown my name out there for his YouTube audience amongst a narrative that he has essentially been bullied off the internet.
“You’ve gotten rid of me. I accept that.”
Now how can I accept an apology that is drowned out by a presentation that will lead his audience who don’t know me on a pity party parade that will go “aw Josh don’t let the bullies win, you didn’t deserve this, the internet is so cruel”.
- (Pic 3) Let me fill in that missing context you didn’t provide.
I was Joshua David Evans’ client.
Josh, you led me to believe you knew me and my identity before I signed a contract with you, and then tried to change everything about me. You used ChatGPT when I asked for help with video suggestions and thumbnail ideas. You cancelled a meeting with me citing the merger when in actuality you sidelined me to focus on a documentary on your ex-wife. You ignored various emails so I would go days without a reply, or sometimes I wouldn’t get a reply at all. I begged you for help and laid my heart bare when I revealed my struggles, and you cruelly kicked me while I was down and deflated my self-esteem.
I am still rather embarrassed and humiliated that I shared something so vulnerable with the world about my poor decision making when it came to accepting management and that it was leading me to financial hardship.
But I will not kick you while you are down. I have repeated over and over that I do not want anything bad to happen to you. I am sorry it all happened this way, and I am sorry you have been fired. My heart does hurt for you, but I can’t overlook the emotional manipulation you have exhibited up to this point, and even in your final video and pinned response.
- (Pic 4) I can’t accept the apology, but I appreciate that he said sorry.
I wish he would say sorry to the people he has hurt over the years, especially Adam McIntyre who has been treated so horribly and was a huge target of Josh’s own hate campaign against him. It was this hatred toward Adam that Josh admits caused him to be rude to me, despite my problems arising before his issues with Adam started. Thank you Josh for acknowledging that, but there was still so much to acknowledge.
I hope Josh is able to remain off the internet and truly find some peace. If he ever wants to reach out to me privately, then I will be sure to keep that private. His public apology, I feel, deserved a public response from me so I can share my feelings and feel like I have had a say in everything that has happened. I hope we can have some closure from it all.
Finally, I have already said thank you to everyone who has made videos speaking up about this situation, and those who have sent lovely messages and donated to my ko-fi, but I need to say thank you again because you’ve changed my life.
So many of you were so generous that I am able to cover my bills not just for this month, but for so many months to come while I still wait for my May payment (should be soon).
- (Pic 5) For the first time in at least ten years, I am debt free.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I will strive to show my appreciation every single day of my life and for as long as I am on YouTube. You’ve all proven that you are a positive influence and community of people and
I don’t want anyone to feel like you have driven someone off the internet or that you “bullied” anyone.
It’s simply not true. Someone wasn’t able to handle the consequences of their actions. In the process, you have helped me beyond words, and I’ll never stop saying thank you.
Sending so much love to you all.
You all deserve the world <3
