    I can sympathize. I’m not sure I agree with you that Hbomb did anything wrong, but I did leave that video feeling pretty shitty in general. With the Tommy Tallarico thing it was so absurd and Tallarico is such a huge figure that it was just kind of funny, but this last video felt like watching somebody’s life being dismantled. It needed to be done, because Somerton was hurting folks and being dishonest. And I’m not sure that somebody with less clout than Hbomberguy could have done it. There were several examples of smaller creators calling Somerton out with little to no effect other than getting backlash from Somerton’s fans. But honestly the whole thing just kind of made me feel sad, I didn’t get much satisfaction out of it.
