So basically, James Somerton stole literally all of his content from other queer creators while positioning himself as the de-facto queer creator to support. And by “all his content”, it really means all his content. Every. Single. Thought. Was plagiarized from someone else’s writing. And the extremely few that didn’t revealed that James Somerton is a crazy misogynist Nazi-loving lesbophobic transphobe.
Basically, he’s a massive piece of shit who’s comically evil to a mind-numbing degree.
You should care if you follow any YouTube creators.
It is the biggest topic right now on YouTube. Everyone is affected because lazy creators and content farms stealing other people’s work is such a big problem on YouTube.
“any YouTube creator” is a stretch. The video called out a few people, and I can imagine that quite a few more vlog style YouTubers are guilty of it. But the vast majority of channels I follow either properly cite their sources or don’t need to, because they present original work.
Essentially, Hbomberguy dug up every skeleton on this guy’s closet and went to town on them, identifying and tracking down most, if not all of the original authors of the works this fucker plagiarized. And the internet blew the video sky high, which made a lot of eyes turn to this guy’s actions, in the wrong way (for him).
Hbomberguy is a popular YouTuber who recently released a video on plagiarism on YouTube. You can watch it here. I haven’t watched it myself yet, but I’m assuming the person in the article is someone he calls out in his video
I also didn’t know the guy. This is the first video, nay movie I watched of him. Found it randomly in Nebula. And somehow was lured in to watch the whole 3 hours.
When Hbomberguy goes after you, you know you are in big trouble.
I still can’t believe I watched a “3 hour” video essay on plagiarism and its worth every minute.
I’m so out of the loop I have no idea who any of these people are or why I should care. Or if I should. What is even going on?

Hbomberguy is a popular YouTuber who recently released a video on plagiarism on YouTube. You can watch it here. I haven’t watched it myself yet, but I’m assuming the person in the article is someone he calls out in his video
Like half of the video is about this douche, he’s the post-reveal topic if your familiar with hbomb’s style
I also didn’t know the guy. This is the first video, nay movie I watched of him. Found it randomly in Nebula. And somehow was lured in to watch the whole 3 hours.
Definitely watch his OOF.mp3 video if you liked the style, it was last year’s release
Closer to 4 hours
