What do you think about this whole Logan Paul thing?


I personally think that the video as well as the comments/jokes made in the video were pretty distasteful.

My brother got super pissed. His face was turning red he got so mad telling me about it. It's this white dude who goes to a different country and mocks the dead of a different race. It's fucked up on so many levels.

Well. Like it or not, it draws attention to the suicide forest. He might be quite the good man, if that was his intention. Demonizing himself, sparking controversy to draw attention to a serious issue.

The suicides in Japan are quite the issue. And the Japanese are quite embarrassed by mistakes or flaws, so it could draw international attention, forcing them to do more about it to hide their shame. Or...just hiding their shame and not changing anything. Of course, I dunno how big this video has gotten.

I haven't watched the video, and I don't really want to, either. But I could prolly tell if he had pure intentions. Or based on his other videos. Probably not, since people are generally self-centered dicks.
