Thank god the Legal Grift King is here to tell you he is suing another big clickbait name.

I'm sure this time for sure it'll actually go somewhere and not just be forgotten like his case against Trump, the FBI, or the entire Federal Government.

Yeah, this guy's up there among the biggest grift faggots on YouTube. His videos are little more than glorified reaction videos to popular legal media with the kind of riveting insight one might learn in a second-year law school civil procedures course. In case anyone wasn't sure, yes, he's a flaming leftist.

They threw a clip of him in the recent AMV Hell 8 and its the first time I've heard his video outside people talking about him. And its just him going "JURY WOULD CONVICT LIKE THAT (finger snap)."

And that's the exact type of retard shit a grifting lawyer loves to tell idiots to get them to pay him massive money. Which is probably why he got so popular in the first place, retarded reaction content like that under the veil of "legally trained expert."

I only know him from when he claimed Captain Marvel was entirely justified in breaking a guy's arm and stealing his motor cycle, because him touching her news paper counts as assault, so she was just defending herself.

So yeah, "retard" sounds about right for him.

That I didn't know. I was just looking up the Honey situation to see if Megalag had uploaded the other parts of his investigation and saw this, but if he's a leftist that's ineffective at his job, then rip

He was clapping like a seal when they were trying to storm and torch that federal building in Oregon. His sister was there chanting songs. Not joking either.

LegalEagle is a bitch, but I hope he prevails.

That Honey shit is one of the most egregious mainstream scams I've seen, and they are absolutely shitty in every way.

Stealing commissions is interesting (you'd think someone would have noticed before the two youtubers did) but I just assumed it was yet another piece of spyware that sold all your information.

It also lies; it doesn't find the best coupon, it actually works with businesses to stop you from finding the best coupons. It also screws over businesses. And the stealing commissions is a bigger deal than some people make it out, since it's not just stealing commissions from people who have been sponsored by them; it steals from everyone, big or small.

It screws over everyone; individuals looking for a good deal, sponsored creators, unsponsored creators who use affiliate links, and businesses themselves.

I doubt it'll get far only because other scam ones like Betterhelp are still operating.

It's quite hilarious to me as an aside, that the most meme'd on sponsor, Raid Shadow legends, is the more legit lol.

what's the deal with BetterHelp? I've used their service and in my case they delivered on what they advertised. I even personally verified the license of the person I was connected to.

Therapy alone is a scam in the majority of cases for most people, so an "affordable, digital" option is going to be a scam in 95% of cases.

But most therapy is also indistinguishable from a placebo to begin with in terms of effects. So if you think its beneficial to be talking to this person, it probably will be so whether they are qualified or just a random loser they pulled off the streets.

Which is why Betterhelp is able to keep operational. It feels like its working for most people paying for it, and its price is much more reasonable compared to everything else, even if its just pure placebo. So all the legitimate complaints with it don't effect it much.

The biggest problem is that a therapist needs a lot of certain skills when dealing with particular vulnerable people who might need their services. These might only be 1/50 clients in a day, but if they fuck up that person is broken or dead. Just like a doctor. So an unlicensed or shitty therapist will do fine all day with people who are just a little sad and that placebo works fine on, until they fail in a catastrophic way.

Here's a video on them, they weren't vetting the therapists and many were unlicensed.

much obliged!

I guess I got lucky because I haven't experienced the complaints people are talking about. the price I paid is also much lower than the video, but I'll keep an eye on my credit card to see if they hike it. the fact that they sold data while claiming they didn't is certainly scummy and I'm glad they got fined for it.

Their fault for not giving a shit about whatever their sponsors are doing. Only when it hit their profits they started screeching.

This guy is so deep in TDS, so rent-free in his head, that I don't think he'd be able to make a lawsuit against Honey unless that honey was poured over Trump.

It's a shame. I loved his videos on the movies Liar Liar and My Cousin Vinny, and the Simpsons episode "The Day The Violence Died," the one about Itchy and Scratchy's real creator and how he was screwed over.

The guy that concluded Vic Mignogna was guilty?

Fuck that.

Imagine going to court to admit to the record that you're too stupid to understand how affiliate programs work.
