Transcripts
hey Noble ones welcome back to my
channel this is the Metatron speaking
and today's topic it's a little bit
unfortunate in the sense that it's a sad
topic to discuss but is something that
I've been thinking should I make a video
about this should I not make a video
about this and of course one of the
incentives of talking about what has
happened to a fellow YouTuber by the
name of Nick from ritaa Retta Rita I
don't know law Retta law I'll just say
is clearly one of the incentives is the
fact that it's a Hot Topic and people
are talking about it it's going to bring
in the views I'm not going to pretend
that that's not one of the incentives
here but I think the main reasons why I
think it's important to talk about it
first of all in a fair manner
levelheaded and only based on evidence
uh but one of the reasons why it's
important to talk about it and the end
of the day I decided yeah I want to talk
about this is because it is a great
opportunity to present a very important
matter particularly to those of you who
watch this Channel and in general
YouTubers and you are relatively young
in other words if you stop watching now
don't do drugs don't drink and drive but
I'll get back to that in a minute so the
other reason why I decided to talk about
this is because I I've had an
interaction with Retta law and it was
not a great interaction you don't know
about this because at the time I decided
that I didn't want to bring it to your
attention but I did have an interaction
with the guy hence the title of this
video it was brought to my attention
that not so long ago during one of his
streams R law decided to dedicate a
whole section of his video to let's say
me in the sense that to be more specific
he was reading and reacting and also
providing commentary to a post that I
had made of course I have no no problems
whatsoever to people reacting or
presenting their opinions on what it is
that I speak and I make I make a lot of
public statements and I post a lot of
content with that being said when I
watched that video I was actually in the
car with my wife she was driving I was
watching the video and even though it
started nicely in the sense that the guy
was like oh you know there is this guy
Metatron I don't know much about it but
I supposed to be cool he's a cool guy so
I appreciated the beginning but then
unfortunately even my wife was like oh
look at that he's speaking nicely about
you and then that the whole stream
really went down into pretty much a
situation whereby for the for the
following 40 minutes the guy just
laughed at me made fun of me honestly
laughing like an idiot I'll just say it
just being extremely unfair putting me
completely out of context and that's why
like we we kind of stopped watching cuz
even my wife was like you know this I
don't like this and I said yeah you know
I I expected better to that I'd like to
say that I left a few comments under his
stream and then he replied because there
were people that were saying things that
were absolutely incorrect about me and
then he replied and was very polite in
the comments so even though I did not
like the way he quote unquote roasted me
although then again neither did his
audience because apart from a couple of
haters who hate me anyways there were
quite a few people that were saying no I
don't think you're being fair I think
you you're taking me out of context he
said this like for example at one point
on that post I was saying basically that
I'm I'm not a racist that I'm not
homophobic and he was like why are you
saying that hahhaa and and then people
were like no Nick he's saying it because
people have accused him of being these
things because normally Metatron defends
historical facts whether this goes
against activists of one side of the
political spectrum and sometimes from
the other of course he didn't have the
context so to him it sounded strange he
literally said I was gay and not gay in
the sense of being homosexual but he was
like oh this is so gay type of way of
speaking so anyways I did not like the
way he spoke about me he made a video
about me I know it was a stream but it
was a long section of that stream I
don't think there is anything wrong with
me making a video about him with that
being said I don't want you to think
that this is my way to take revenge it
is not in fact if anything I'd like to
present a nuanced and fair take about
this whole situation of this fellow
content creator to whom I had an
interaction with the whole situation is
the fact that it seems like allegedly
retal is not only an alcoholic but it
seems like he's struggling with
substance abuse the substance in
question allegedly would be cocaine the
reason why I keep saying allegedly is
because let's keep in mind that the
court of public opinion is never the
right way to judge something the
information that has been presented to
us hasn't still been fully reviewed by a
court of law and there isn't a complete
verdict the guy is indeed facing 25
years of jail time I don't know if he
would do any jail time I'm not versed in
the legal aspect of this I'll refer you
to other channels that have covered the
legal aspect of all of this however
during his streams it was clear that the
guy was struggling with alcohol
addiction and once again allegedly law
enforcement has entered his house with a
warrant and they have found a certain
amount of illegal substances all of this
connects to the actual core message of
this discussion if all of this is true
then it kind of presents an important
opportunity to talk about influence
because even though I absolutely loathe
the word influencer particularly when
it's connected to me also because it's
often connected to people that you know
these young kids on Tik Tok that do
stupid pranks and they're called
influences you know that that's all the
whole section of social media pisses me
off very much but it is important to
underline that whether you want to use
the word influence or not as content
creators we do have influence
particularly on the younger generation
in the sense that if you're a
40-year-old man or woman most likely
even if you see me do or say something
silly that won't really affect the way
you live your life but when it comes to
people who are young then absolutely
they will look at you often times with
respect because they think hey he
Metatron or Retta law or freaking Jack
sepy PewDiePie whoever he is oh I want
to become like them because penguin
critically successful he makes a lot of
money people subscribe to him so I want
to do what he does and often times as
content creators with a certain level of
success we do have to keep in mind that
what we say is not just a matter of what
I think but it's also a matter matter of
what potentially the youngest section of
and portions of our audience will begin
thinking too because they will try to
emulate you because they like who you
are what you represent and most
importantly they want to be like you of
course a Channel with millions of
subscribers will have a lot more
influence than to people than a Channel
with 10,000 subscribers and of course
all the different levels in between but
I think once you reach a certain point
and you start having people watching
your content and you get good numbers
regardless of your actual subscribe
count it's important to take into
consideration the responsibility of your
actions onto the people that are
watching also because unfortunately when
you're very young and impressionable uh
you will make connections that you know
if you use logic and reason you wouldn't
you wouldn't make for example well this
person is keeps drinking alcohol during
live streams and gets completely wasted
or like other people have done they
drive drunk during freaking live streams
there are situations like this that we
see and these are obviously not example
that you should emulate but it's very
probable that a person who is Young will
make the connection well this person is
successful people are watching him he's
making a lot of money he's very popular
I should start doing what he does so
that I can also become successful yada y
yada so if you are a content creator and
you have a few hundred thousand people
watching before you turn on the camera
think think about what message you're
giving particularly to the young now
when it comes to addiction I've never
experienced Addiction in my life which
is why I don't think I can really judge
him this is not a video where I'm trying
to kick a man while he's down absolutely
not I think people that struggle with
addiction just need help that's what
they need a professional help in fact
but as I say I almost never drink very
occasionally drink alcohol but
absolutely have no addiction whatsoever
to it I have never experienced drug
abuse cuz I never used drugs I've never
even smoked a cigarette in my life so I
don't understand even tobacco addiction
maybe the only addiction I have about
video games but then again video games
yes they give you a release of
endorphins I suppose but they do not
introduce any substance in your body and
of course that makes it a very different
type of addiction if you will so if this
whole discussion stopped at the
addiction part I wouldn't judge him for
his addiction but I would only say do
not follow in his footsteps because
still the fact that he is streaming
means that I think you should be a
little more careful on what sort of
message you're presenting to your
audiences with that being said another
thing that I think is important to say
whether you are a friend of his or not
whether a hater or an apologist for his
case I think it's important to underline
that once you become a father your
perspective should change so you've got
kids to look after well they depend on
you if you're struggling with drugs if
you're struggling with alcohol well your
kids are the priority now not you and so
once you become a father you need to get
your together and this is a message
that I think we should start to sort of
reinforce even more particularly when we
see situations like this it's a very
unfortunate situation and is very sad I
do absolutely wish and pre that he will
overcome it and he has literally hit
rock bottom and now he can change his
life and this can be a wakeup call so
that he can give up these substances
that he alleged was using once again if
this is indeed confirmed to be so for
the sake of his kids first and foremost
and talking about kids that is the part
where I think the situation became
really bad for what I could read until
this is 100% confirmed by actual
authorities we should still give him the
benefit of the doubt because once again
Court of public opinion and stuff that
you read on internet is not evidence
from a legal perspective but several
accusations have been presented when it
comes to child neglect in the sense that
it seems like his kids were the ones who
spoke sort of against him at Sunday
school to a teacher because they were
saying that they they were often hungry
they were wearing the same clothes for
many days at a time and also the idea
that seems like that he may have been
driving his kids around while under the
influence of alcohol and who knows what
if this is true then in that case my
personal compassion towards the man
reaches a limit if it's not true then
it's a different situation but if these
things are true then I'm sorry but that
is not something that you can defend
even if you really like the guy and for
further context and Clarity the reason
why I say that my compassion ends right
there it's not because I'm trying to be
harsh or pure unitive towards the guy
but simply because that compassion then
transfers onto the kids if you see the
point I'm drawing the only thing that
you can defend right now if you're a
friend of his is guys let's not jump to
conclusions until evidence is actually
presented and has been examined by a
professional and authorized body If you
defend him like this I will absolutely
say yes you're right that is correct but
if all of these alleged accusations
appear to be true then that's where we
should draw the line because once again
if it's true then that's something that
cannot be defended nor respected if you
don't conduct yourself properly in your
life as a single adult it's your
decision of course if you're using
illegal substances you're still breaking
the law and if you're a lawyer you know
that better than anyone else so that's
something that is between you and the
state but as long as you're not breaking
laws if you don't want to look after
yourself I mean drinking alcohol is
legal so you're not breaking the law as
a friend that would tell you hey man I
think you need to get yourself get your
together but I you know as a friend
but as a complete stranger I'd be like
hey he's not breaking any law but the
moment kids are entered into the
equation particularly if there are I was
reading also about the situation of
firearms being left around the house
together with these substances I'm not
against Castle doctoring I'm not against
personal protection but if you own
firearms you need to own them
responsibly and therefore if you have
kids said Firearms can never be in the
reach of those kids and I think you can
agree with this whatever your political
positions are you need to be responsible
about how you own firearms this is what
the Articles say this is what YouTubers
say this is what law enforcement has
stated as of now but until those
statements are presented in front of a
court and an investigation is completed
we don't know if it's the case maybe
it's not true that the firearm was not
properly stored therefore let's wait
wait for the actual verdict all of this
to say Nick if you're watching this our
interaction online hasn't been the best
I did appreciate that you were polite to
me in their responses although I'm sure
you will realize and you must have
realized that I myself was very polite
in the way I responded to you making fun
of me I would strongly suggest maybe get
off the internet right now it's because
I see that it seems like you're still
making public posts which I think can be
used against you if you are lawyers in
the description let me know but I
believe that if you under this sort of
accusation and you're a public figure
probably the best thing to do is to stop
being online but in general as I say
Nick not trying to attack you in any way
shape or form this is my way to say I
don't hate you man perhaps you were
drunk when you made that video reaction
to me in which case I could be like okay
now I get why he was behaving like a
12-year-old because you were this is my
way to publicly say I hope that you get
out of this situation and that you
change your life if those allegations
were true as always no ones thank you
for watching this video and do keep in
mind if you're are a content creator
that we do have influence and we need to
take that into consideration whenever we
turn on the camera because of the
example we give thank you for watching
