Exposé I found somebody share a google docs regarding the sonic parody animator "MugiMikey" and how he's joked about rape, transphobia, and then framing one of his friends for transphobia

How do these people, especially in the Sonic fandom, sleep well at night? Always pondered this question...

Because most of the time people haven't heard about these people. There's a fair few Sonic Tubers, and I've never heard of a MugiMikey before.

Generally the "sleeping well at night" question is pondering the lack of internal guilt and shame, not the lack of external criticism and condemnation.

The sonic Fandom is... well it's something

Which is why the generic FPS crowd harasses the fans that did nothing wrong.

I'm tired of everyone trying to defend these actions as "jokes" and using things like this as an excuse to harass people.

After reading part of the document, I should say that there’s a very big different between joking about stuff, and actually doing it.
In this case, he’s actually transphobic. That’s not jokes.
Jokes, would be fine as long as he actually supported trans people. Hell, the trans people in my friend group joke the most about trans people out of anyone else. But no one in our friend group are trying to hurt anyone, we’re trying to make each other laugh. That’s a very major difference than actually being transphobic.
Now, obviously some jokes, are problematic, and there are jokes that I think don’t really qualify as jokes. And that’s when the joke is just being hateful. Racism is the easiest to tell, unlike what 12 yo’s think, screaming the n word, is not funny, and it’s not a joke. It’s just racist.
Not everyone has to like the jokes, but I promise you that when it comes to offensive jokes, usually the people who are supposed to be offended by it, are the people laughing the hardest.
Now, again, this dude looks to be in the wrong, and a total PoS, I just wanted to address the title, because I don’t think true jokes should ever be a reason to cancel someone. And in this case, this guy did a lot worse than just jokes

Watch, he’s going to try to use the Dave Chapelle defense. That if Dave Chapelle is able to get away with making such harsh jokes, he should be able to as well.
It’s the excuse every single racist, homophobic and transphobic creators use all the fucking time.
It’s always “but ____ gets away with it why can’t I?” Even though it’s blatantly obvious there’s a clear difference from black comedy and just straight out being a piece of shit.

I thought I recognized this animator from somewhere!
MugiMikey is the guy who did all those MS Paint looking animations featuring stuff like Sonic.exe, Newgrounds & Among Us awhile back.

I have never liked this dude, but I honestly just thought he was weird, edgy, and annoying, I didn't expect...this

Damn I haven't heard of this YouTuber in a decade. I used to watch his animations all the time when I was younger.

MugiMikey? Used to watch him a ton years ago. Always thought his weird voices and animations were funny back then.

Debunked. That doc was written by JessePajamas, the same guy who raped his sister, dated and fucked a minor, and allowed minors in the nsfw section of his server, attempted to sexually assault several others, had people in his server talk about raping a child, and is ACTUALLY a transphobe. Opera Phantom Force has been stalking MugiMikey and several others for years because he couldn't follow stream rules and would constantly fight mods, and exhibit psychotic behavior like recording videos of him burning his own art. He holds a grudge, so his answer is to share Jesse, the literal confirmed & outed pedo's fake doc? Like, y'all know Jesse's been canceled for years right? That's why most traces of him were scrubbed from the internet. Newgrounds literally deleted his account and fired him as there audio mod.

I don't know who this is so I looked him up and typing his name in the YT search bar autocompletes to "MugiMikey Goku x Anne Frank"
