The Most Trolled YouTuber Of All TIME! (Let's Hope Steemit Doesn't Devolve To This)
There are a couple YouTubers I subscribe to who partially talk about lifting weights and diet. Because of that I kept seeing Vegan Gain's channel pop up and one day I clicked on one of the videos. I'm not a vegan and have never tried it even for a short period of time. I noticed the massive amount of typed abuse in the comments section. I was like....."WOW, This guy is getting roasted hard." He continued to make videos but I was perplexed why so many people were trolling on him so hard. He really takes a hard stand on animal cruelty related issues associated with people eating meat. I think that is where it all started. He will say that it is a Holocaust against animals and what not. He sometimes almost yells at people who are meat eaters. So I feel like that is where all the trolling started.
Now it is out of hand!
Here is a video with him and his girlfriend talking about how they are dating and how it started out as a long distance relationship.
If you look at it on YouTube it has about half thumbs up and half thumbs down. That is very common for his videos. The comment section is where it gets plain nasty. Everyone is taking their best stab at telling him how is girlfriend is ugly. They each try to one up each other with a witty roast. It is just plain vicious. It is actually interesting because he would almost have to tell her not to even look at the video comments at all. Otherwise she might slip into depression.
I guess he feels that the negativity on his channel's comment section has actually been part of his success because people are actually going there to tear him apart in the comments.
You can rule with an iron fist on YouTube comments by blocking the trolls and just leaving the positive stuff up there. This is a small sample of the madness that is going on in the comment section.
What do you think Steemit? Should Vegan Gains keep feeding all these hungry trolls?
Theres alot of horrible people on youtube posting their horrid opinions I know there as been some top youtubers who seriously considered removing comments from theirs videos because its so bad.
I feel like it is getting worse as time goes on. Kids are being bullied online these days really bad as well.
When trolls hit my YouTube channel I usually say something like "I love you"
I thought the comments were going to be much more mean. Maybe i've just got a really thick skin after all the slagging off from the Satanists in 2015 - early 2016 ;) Yeah... actual baby-killing Satanists. These were real roasts. The comments are archived here

A few individual examples:
Same would happen here, flags, and ruin his account,s imply because of? Denial. People can;t handle facing the mirror. So they attack those they spread truth they don't want to face honestly. They project their insecurity and evil ways as him being the evil person, when he isn't. People are very confused and suffering in this society, and they can't even see it.
See the interesting thing is that I feel like his videos are still getting served up a lot by YouTube. Even though he gets a lot of down votes I think his engagement is real high. The trolls are watching the entire videos and trying to come up with the meanest thing to say to him. So he is still getting the payouts.
I think it all began like ~1.5y ago. I can remember Vegan Gains making some very provocative and silly statements and he got torn apart by what I call "rational" youtubers. The likes of "Sargon of Akkad". I can even remember watching those videos and laughing at VeganGains, but can't remember what it was all about anymore. Guess many trolls got him on their radar after that. Who knows.
Yeah some of the stuff he does is silly. Like the little skits and stuff but I just laugh it off. I'm not compelled to make jokes about his girlfriend. LOL
lol :D
Now I know where most trolls come from.
Yeah maybe some of the trolling is warranted. LOL
The level of zealotry displayed by some vegans on YouTube, especially Vegan Gains, is the primary reason for them being in the sights of the ever present YouTube trolls. If you take a little tour of some of the hate-filled vegan rants on YouTube, you will start to see the pattern.
Yeah I can see how his passion for being a Vegan and acting like meat eaters are insane has awoke the trolls.

I get flagged whenever I write about problems with the steemit website. I just don't get paid the nickel I would have got. Trolling I haven't seen on steemit.
I haven't ever been flagged when I talk about some of the issues with Steemit. The most I have seen is people voicing their opinions strongly in the comment section but not going full blown troll on anyone. It is interesting that Trolls don't exist here.
I would say for now there isn't alot of trolling on steemit but have a feeling it will slowly creep up with more people joining.
