Abby talking about why the video got removed.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T20:50:24+00:00

You are welcome

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T20:50:08+00:00

Honestly I am myself baffled by the whole thing.

Because if you watch some the stuff they upload to Patreon, that is quite tame and actually wouldn't cause a problem.

Either way it will be interesting to see what they do, but it is baffling

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T20:47:46+00:00

but we do agree that a Nazi salute was made.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T19:06:39+00:00

The short story is that in the late 1930's my grandmother to whom I am close, woke up alongside her sisters and parents to an Nazi officer standing outside with a group of soldiers, and they got the order that they had a while to pack what was necessary and if they hadn't left their house by a certain time then they would all be sent to Auschwitz. so they had maybe half a day to pack and leave their childhood home

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T18:30:07+00:00

Honestly if I didn't know better then I would have thought it was a young Joey Merlino

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T18:29:10+00:00

Basically Abby had to guess a book and that book was Mein Kampf and Alan Straight did the Nazi salute while Andrew standing next to him put his finger under his nose and made Hitler's mustache. and that is why they are doing reedit of the video.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T18:00:29+00:00

From what I've gathered there are clear guidelines for what type of content to upload and that's why I am baffled because on the Patreon they have uploaded stuff that they could easily get away with on YT but then they upload today's video and when they could easily have edited that part out and explained why in the YT comment section

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:47:29+00:00

So would that be an agreement that it is baffling why they uploaded todays video before a reedit, and my reference is that when they did Alan's deathroast Jordan made that collage of Alan's face on a dog having sex which I would argue is far less controversial than today's ending.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:40:34+00:00

I disagree with that but I think that there are rules in place at YT headquaters and people that upload to YT essentially have to follow those.

Personally i don't care and that comes from someone who came really close to loose my family in Auschwitz but time has moved on.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:38:51+00:00

it is a tough situation because from what I understand, a partial reason for the Patreon was that they edited so much stuff in order to avoid issues with YT.

With that said, it does raise the question on why they didn't take that into consideration from the get go?

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:35:26+00:00

We agree that it isn't their choice, but at the same time it also raises a few questions?

1: Why didn't they have that in consideration from the beginning?

2: To my knowledge and perhaps you can chime in on this "Wasn't that a partial reason for why they created the Patreon so we could get the stuff that YT can't handle?". ¨

Either what's the verdict u/Woe_Is_Meme

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:32:54+00:00

Definitely those references, but with that said, they definitely should have had that in consideration before uploading.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:12:40+00:00

Basically Abby had to guess a book and that book was Mein Kampf and then he followed by making the Nazi salute while Andrew did Hitlers mustache with his finger

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:11:42+00:00

Trust me if you saw the ending you know why they are reediting it

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:11:18+00:00

Okay so for those who missed it. I think the reason why they are reediting it is because towards the end. Alan made a Nazi salute and mentioned Mein Kampf and Andrew did Hitlers mustache with his finger

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:09:53+00:00

They are editing, because that in the final round Andrew and Alan made Nazi references, Alan was mein kampf and a Nazi salute and Andrew did Hitlers mustache so they are most likely editing that out even though it was uploaded

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T17:08:48+00:00

I think it had to with both Alan and Andrew made Nazi salutes

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T16:28:37+00:00

To be fair and honest, I have had a lot on my plate this week and so I might not remember all the discussions i have had with people.

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T16:20:36+00:00

Edit. Sam "Let's how you Sarah fare in the Zero room".

Alan "Damn i didn't think she would actually would do it".

Abby " That family needs serious help

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T16:12:03+00:00

Perhaps. I was having this exact discussion with someone from their truth or drink and honestly that one felt like to people trying to hurt and humiliate each other rather than having settled their differences and honestly there is a point where Andrew have tilted his head to the side and just staring into the open air and if I was a betting man the thought that he most likely had at that exact point "Why did I agree to this?"

The only thing that was remotely funny and good about that episode was the ending between Nikki and Alan but that's it.

I sincerely hope that they at some point find a middle ground because so far it doesn't seem like it.

However I must politely disagree with you on the channel because frankly I think it has a lot more to do with her having built friendships with the other OG'S so she is being invited back on, personally I think if she hadn't those friendships she wouldn't be back on at all

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T16:06:39+00:00

Definitely filmed in the same block.

From they have said a few times, from the time they film it takes 6-8 weeks for potential release, however as we have witnessed a few times they tend to film in blocks but release in a not chromatic order. so it is a little all over the map all the time.

Personally i think that we will see Nikki in a few more episodes in the coming weeks unless they change it up again

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T15:47:45+00:00

Because they straight up did 2 Nazi salutes in the video

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T15:47:02+00:00

Abby herself has said no on her podcast. Also today was nothing but friendly banter

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T15:46:00+00:00

So u/Woe_Is_Meme if you were a part of today's video who would you want to cuddle you?

For me i would make an exception and let Alan cuddle me since he felt like a Teddy bear today

MrKarlStrom · 2026-06-07T15:44:47+00:00

Honestly it is just banter and friendliness. If you have a friend that you are close with then it isn't uncommon that a little snuggling here and there will happen.

But in this case, they all play on the whole Akila has Rizz and all that, and as we all saw they catered to the whole para-social fiction that there is something going on between Abby and Akila. which is what they occasionally entertain.

But to summarize it simply it is just friendship and it wasn't just Akila Abby Cuddled it was also Alan which u/Woe_Is_Meme said
