My reasons for joining Snark

I was a big fan circa 2017ish-2022 and stopped watching after his show with Trisha ended. Not even because I took Trisha’s side, I just felt myself growing away from the show. I never watched Leftovers, because especially at the time, politics just depressed me too much. So admittedly, I don’t even really know a lot about Hasan or his political views. Up until joining this sub I didn’t even know why they had a falling out.

I did continue to follow Ethan on instagram, because I liked seeing nice photos of his family from time to time and I really liked Hila as well. I wouldn’t go out of my way to click his posts, so I guess it was just a casual following.

Anyway, the past month or two I’d see his stories at the top of my feed multiple times a day. I had no context for what was going on but it rubbed me the wrong way. Why was he so rude in his posts? Sharing screenshots of negative comments (that weren’t even bad, just people being critical of what seemed to be valid points) and including the usernames of said people. Idk, for someone with his following it’s… a strange choice. Who’s to say his fan base won’t go and harass those commenters? And Ethan was so snarky (pun intended) in his stories, like he truly just sounded like a cry baby loser but I didn’t even know the context. I could still pick up on that despite being out of the loop!

I eventually googled a phrase something like “Is Ethan Klein spiraling?” And this subreddit popped up. It does restore my faith in humanity to know that so many other people see it too and are calling him out on his behaviour. I get the context of everything now for the most part, and holy shit man this guy is a real piece of work. Incredible to think that his whole inclusiveness was just a shtick.

I’m sad that so much of his staff has stayed by his side throughout all this. I really grew to like a lot of them. Except Zach. I was always his #1 hater.

Anyway that’s all. Just wanted to share that Ethan is truly losing fans and followers by his own doing (being a piss baby)
