Shane Dawson Doesn't Deserve Backlash For New Docuseries

Shane Dawson, a popular YouTuber, has recently released the first 2 parts of his 8-part series, "The Mind of Jake Paul," who just so happens to be one of the most controversial YouTubers of this time.

I can imagine many other Shane fans had the same reaction that I did when we found out who his new series was about. I had seen plenty of Jake Paul, and I wasn't wanting to see any more.

My immediate worry was that with this series, Shane was going down the same path as he had with other YouTubers where he used his platform to reveal their stories.

I was not interested in hearing Jake Paul make up excuses for his behavior and I didn't want these videos trying to make me feel bad for him.

But after viewing the first two parts, I realized that was not the case at all. Shane is completely aware of the potential consequences of his posting of this series, he says so in the first part of his video.

But he still chooses to pursue it anyway, because he's curious.

That's why I respect Shane and his content so much. He takes risks because he wants to really know the truth. He's not going after views, he knows he may even lose subscribers from having Jake in his videos.

He's genuinely curious as to what happened to Jake to make him act the way he does. So, he's doing everything he can to get to the bottom of it.

From being a Shane fan for the past few years, I know he is one of the most real and genuine YouTubers I've ever seen. He doesn't put on a fake personality like it's so easy to do on such a huge entertainment platform.

He is real, and he cares so much about helping others.

That's why I can't comprehend why so many people are getting mad at Shane for this. So many people are threatening to unsubscribe from his channel, or just voicing how upset they are at Shane for even doing this.

Nobody is interested in hearing Shane give Jake Paul a redemption arc.

But Shane isn't going for that. He's trying to get down to the bottom of why Jake is the way that he is and even begins to dive into sociopathic issues. Not even just with Jake himself, but also with YouTubers in general.

Therefore, it seems like it'll be a lot deeper and a lot more interesting than just hours of Jake explaining his reckless behavior. Shane genuinely has me interested with only 2 parts out and I can't wait to see where it goes from here.

Hopefully, others feel the same and stop giving Shane so much hate for this series.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
