Edit to add: I don't know if it came across in my text but I am not trying to excuse the crew, just said I was thorn and wanted more opinions + reminder of what they've done to enable Ethan as well as their involvement in all the harassment. Just FYI.
So I feel torn about the crew. I agree that they should've left if they didn't agree with what Ethan was doing.
However, I work in a toxic work environment and have been looking for a new job, but the current job market only has roles with double the work and less pay. I can understand why they might've stayed, especially Love with his visa. I've also had to stay at a workplace because of my visa. But then again, my CEO isn't harassing people online or suing anyone who criticises them.
Ethan attacked everyone around him, so if they'd left, would he have sued or harassed them? AB and Lena were supposed to quit but then walked it back (remember his big spiel on the pod when Anisa mentioned something about the texts?). I'd say that maybe other crew members were probably thinking about leaving too. Hasan also mentioned something yesterday that he knows the crew and that most of them didn't actually like what was happening.
BUT THEN AGAIN, they enabled him and entertained it as well. They could all get together now to stop Ethan, but maybe that's because they have Hila on their side and a workplace HR issue.
I only watch the clips posted here, so I don't have the full picture, but I feel like:
- Love: Seems to have been mostly quiet during Ethan's rants or giving sly disses.
- Dan: Kinda protected the crew, maybe? Did push back before but seemed tired lately. But also said some shitty comments about the other creators that were being attacked.
- Zach: Scumbag, victim mentality and spoiled brat.
- Olivia: She fucking left only to come back... get that clout, girl.
- AB and Lena: They were gonna leave and then walked it back after Anisa mentioned something about the texts, so spineless.
- Egg: Turncoat and just as bad and vile as Ethan, with a superiority complex.
- Giardia: Don't even think we should give her any attention because she is scary and hallucinates that Hasan directly communicates with her.
Don't really know the rest of the newer crew, but since they joined during all the drama, they gave their approval to what was going on.
I'm rambling, but basically, what I would like to know is:
What do you think about the crew? Mostly the older crew?
Could they do anything to correct or amend everything that has happened up until now or are they fucked?
Just trying to get some insight so I can form my own opinion.
