The Fall Of Zaid Magenta: From Critic To Criminal?

the culture wars are certainly an

interesting thing on one side you have

Sigma males who are really just

14-year-olds trying to be cool spreading

homophobic and transphobic videos and

messages to try to get the most

attention they can because they failed

to get that from their parents on the

other hand you have nut jobs saying that

if you even dare to think about a word

that they have now deemed as offensive

you will be cast into the fiery pits of

Hell never to be seen or thought about

again seriously I get that there are

some words that we shouldn't be using

anymore but if you seriously try to call

a Latino person Latin X you will first

be left at and then beat up I should

know I tried I personally have chosen to

stay out of the culture wars because I

find this Hot Topic not something I wish

to engage in I do understand that there

are those out there who want to make

videos about the culture wars and how it

plays into media our everyday lives Etc

and if you want to make that sort of

content then go ahead more power to you

however there are some people out there

who take their opinions of the culture

wars too far some go to extreme lengths

to try to demonize the other side as

people who are undeserving of sympathy

simply because of their views and and

then there are those who choose to take

their Obsession of the culture war and

how it affects media and turn that anger

into something that affects other people

to the point where they justify

harassment of not only individuals who

disagree with them but also kids and

today's video subject is one such person

someone who took their obsession with

media and Star Wars of all things into

something that would lead them down a

path of turmoil and pain this is the

story behind that person and their

actions online this is the turbulent

tale of Zade magenta aka Miss

anthroponiessfm

part one

introduction now there's not a whole lot

out there on the origins of Zade magenta

AKA misanthrop Pony who I will now refer

to as Zade so I'll be going off of what

I personally know and what I was able to

find online if anyone else has more

information on the beginnings of zade's

Channel let me know in the comments

below Zade had a start on YouTube by

uploading reviews of fan animations as

well as vlogging his trips to Disney

World alongside updates in his personal

life he made videos on cuties when was

was released on Netflix and condemned

the Star Wars fandom for their unjust

harassment against Kelly Marie Tran he

also made gaming review videos

specifically reviewing bosses from the

Final Fantasy 7 remake this was around

the time when he released his review of

the Cartoon Network show Steven Universe

which has become his most reviewed video

on his channel and where I personally

started watching him honestly a pretty

modest start and I'm sure we've all done

something

similar part two

controversies so we've established at

this point what kind of content Zade

makes but it's also important to know

how he portrays himself online he

typically flies off the handle when

making videos acts really aggressively

when he makes reviews and generally acts

as if yandere Dev was a

[Music]

YouTuber

[Music]

stupid it was all a complete [ __ ]

waste of

time all of it now I have no problem

with this if it was just hyperbole but

it isn't this is quite literally him

getting angry at whatever it is he's

making a video on now if he was

screaming at someone who was genuinely

disgusting say a child predator or

online stalkers then I wouldn't have a

problem with it but the thing is is that

he directs that kind of anger at anyone

who disagrees with him YouTubers Twitter

users Tumblr posters adults and children

and alike it didn't matter who you were

if you so much as disagreed with him you

were subject to the same amount of

harassment there was even one time when

after someone who disagreed with him on

his takes about the Last Jedi he

followed them to their YouTube channel

and left this comment at least I'm not a

brain dead [ __ ] who Gul celebrates how

Kathleen Kennedy turned Star Wars into a

shitty movement for toxic feminist

policies and acting like Ryan Johnson

created the next Citizen Kane he did

that over someone else having a

different opinion than him but that

isn't even a drop in the bucket compared

to to other things he's done to

understand this next part of the story

you need to know about another YouTuber

named caroni caroni is a cartoon and

movie reviewer who mainly makes videos

on Nickelodeon Cartoon Network and

Disney the videos he makes are genuinely

interesting so if you think you're into

that kind of stuff I recommend checking

his channel out to give a little

background about this story when this

incident occurred Zade was 28 years old

and cartooni was 16 cuni had an open

invite to his server and Zade joined

because of zade's long rant and

aggressive attitude he was booted out of

the server as well as being blocked by

caroni now while Zade didn't necessarily

do anything to break the rules of the

server caroni being the owner of the

server had every right to manage it the

way he wants to it's a Discord server

not a debate then one year later after

Zade had been booted from the server he

started tweeting at caroni on an ALT

account using a fake identity to try to

talk to him saying that if caroni didn't

make nice with Zade he was going to end

up on his haum video now technically

Zade had no real information that he

could use about cartooni in this haum

video this is definitely a threat as

well as a manipulation tactic he was

very quickly and swiftly called out for

it soon posting an apology video before

taking it down soon after unfortunately

I couldn't find a reupload of it

anywhere and anyone who has talked about

it in their videos have already picked

it apart better than I could so I'll

just link a video made by cartooni

himself picking apart every detail about

this drama in the description below for

those curious but for the sake of this

video I'll gloss over the important

points Zade essentially talks about what

I was talking about his burner account

his threats to cartoon shei Etc however

one thing he doesn't do or at least he

does at a poor job at is take

accountability for his actions that got

him in the situation in the first place

he downplays a lot of his actions and

makes excuses for others it's honestly

one of the worst apology videos I've

ever seen however in the end he does

take a couple months break from YouTube

before returning and doing his original

content again all seem to have returned

to normal however it would only be

another couple of months before things

Sprout it up

again part three

downfall in spite of the actions he took

previously that got him into the mess he

was in a couple of months prior Zade

would again make burner accounts to

threaten and harass people who disagreed

with him even going as far as to say

that he wished one person would get

gunned down in the streets by gangs over

their opinions about and get this [ __ ]

Star Wars this was the final straw a few

months later creepy came to me again

with devian art messages where Zade was

telling people that he hoped they would

get shot up by gangs Zade was dragged

into call and shame for this after this

Zade was dragged into Senate a Discord

server that contained a lot of his

friends at the time ly Convoy queen

saraphina that creepy reading Etc and

was basically told that not only would

he be removed from all Discord servers

that they owned that he was a part of

but that they would not be associating

themselves with him anymore and after

the call that is exactly what they did

Lio even said himself that the hate Dum

video that Zade Was preparing shouldn't

be made anymore since now he was just as

bad as they were not only are we going

to remove you from here

but I will not be around you anymore and

I don't ever want to see a video from

you about your haters because at this

point you're acting just as bad as they

are after all of this Zade made yet

another apology video saying that he was

once again going to be taking a break

from YouTube and that he would be

postponing the hate them video a video

which again I can't get unfortunately

however there is a response video made

by Queen saraphina that dissects

everything said in the video so I'll

link that in the description once again

but to Briefly summarize what was said

in the video Zade basically tried to

once again emotionally manipulate his

audience and capped it off withholding a

momento to his dead father and swearing

on it that he would get better now

there's nothing inherently wrong with

this and if he did do this as a way to

swear to his father that he would get

better then it would be fine but where

it goes from being a solemn swear to his

father to a manipulation tactic is that

he put it in his video to his audience

as a way of saying look I made a promise

to my dead father and I sound very sad

feel sympathy for me again there's a lot

more to it than that but for time sake a

like a full section of the video in the

description after the video by Queen

saraphina was made Zade then deleted his

YouTube channel as well as other social

medias however not too long after he

would again make another burner account

on Twitter now the account has denied

being Zade but come on look at this not

only making a threat about the hate Dum

video using terminology Zade would use

and the account being made not too long

after all this drama went down nice try

Zade you're not fooling

anyone part four aftermath

now there are a couple things that I

wanted to bring up as a sort of

conclusion to all of this and as a sort

of preemptive rebuttal to anyone of Zade

magenta's fans or Zade himself who want

to try to make points against this

video it doesn't matter how old it is

this is something that needs to be more

known about not only to keep Zade in

check if he ever does return to YouTube

which he has said that he might do but

also has a way to teach people how to

not act online take this whole video as

a

lesson while yes Zade does have autism

and I can empathize to a certain degree

that does not make him exempt from his

actions poor impulse control can

certainly explain some things as well as

not being able to fully understand some

situations that being said however he

had multiple chances given to him to get

his anger under control and each time he

was given that chance he has shown time

and time again that he can't be trusted

I have autism too so I can empathize

where he might be struggling with anger

issues as I've had similar troubles in

the past however I like many others have

learned to get it under control not only

that but I'm 18 years old and I can't

really understand how I as an

18-year-old can grasp that concept while

Zade at over 30 years old hasn't gotten

it at this point especially considering

how he and I have the same functioning

level as each other on the Spectrum all

of this to say that Zade being autistic

is not an excuse for poor Behavior

despite being a factor to

it well yes Zade has not been charged

and convicted as a criminal some of his

online activity could bring charges

against him based on on the following

laws article 47 of the United States

code section 223 this law prohibits the

transmission of obscene messages via

telecommunications device across state

lines such as telephone and email it

also prohibits using such devices with

intent to abuse threaten or harass a

specific person us code article 18

section

2261a this law penalizes anyone who uses

a Channel of Interstate conference to

engage in a course of conduct that

causes substantial emotional distress to

a person or places that person in

reasonable fear of death or serious

bodily injury for themselves or for a

member of their immediate family or

spouse SL intimate partner the thing is

he has danced a very fine line when it

comes to criminal activity so

technically according to law he cannot

be charged yet the tale of Zade magenta

is a cautionary tale to all future

YouTubers this is what can happen when

you don't keep your anger under control

there will be some things online that

will anger you such as dealing with

predators people who try to defame you

Etc however if you allow your anger to

influence what you post to the point of

people questioning your motives you can

find yourself in trouble not just with

those who have angered you but with the

law take this video as a lesson of sorts

basically don't do what Zade did in this

video and you should be fine but with

that said that's going to be it for me
