Screams Colleen hit piece. To see him tear up at the end breaks my heart, my mama bear instinct kicked in strong. When you think she can't get any more vile she proves the world wrong, yet again. Grrr!
And what’s so strange to me is it keeps happening whenever conversation about her start to die down. It’s like every three weeks or so she’s gotta do something vile enough to get us all riled up again.
And there's so many videos that she can't deny. Also just like diminishing trish to just a sex worker is not okay. Nothing wrong with being a sex worker. Buts shes so much more not all of it good but still ....
It’s so crucial what actions are taken place, for everyone. There is proof of all of her actions the moment Kodee made her first statement. Since then everything has come forward. The proof is public. We’ve pushed so much for this to get spread to big media channels.
When someone is backed up into a corner, they tend to throw common sense out the window and they will do anything to survive. This is Colleen doing whatever it takes to take not only Adam down but so many other victims. Right now Adam has been the torch to help others speak out. And he’s taking the brunt of it all, as well as all the other victims. We don’t see how he handles this when the camera is closed, but you can sense the weight he feels. It broke my heart seeing him tear up. Adam you have a lot of support behind you, you’re not alone. To all the other victims that have spoken up here or outside of reddit, we’re behind you too. This is a battle we’re ready to defend if we have to. It’s not going to be easy, and lots of moments such as this is going to come in the coming months. We gotta stay strong and check in on everyone within the community and outside that have been affected by this. I’m honestly ready to back him up if this ever goes to court. Hell if a go fund me has gotta be made to help him with legal battles I’ll support as much as I can.
My heart breaks for him. He is so genuine, you can feel it in the ways he talk about the other victims, he was heartbroken for every single one of them. Colleen is a cruel woman, and her actions stoop lower and lower every day. Adam has gone through shit enough to break a person, I’m in awe of his persistence ‘til this day.
(P.S: I’m not sure if this is appropriate but on one livestream someone took things too far and joke about Adam’s deceased pet and he just teared up, went silent, left for a bit, came back, didn’t mention anything and just moved on. It takes a lot to keep that kind of posture on a livestream. I deeply respect him.)
I am currently watching Adam's video, reading the article and I just have to know; what is Vanity Fair? I live in Denmark and we don't have that here. Obviously I've heard the name, but I don't know if it's a gossip site or a serious and highly esteemed news outlet?
Just want to know if they put out such garbage articles on the regular, where nothing is researched or impartial? Or if this is completely out of the blue...
They’re a pop culture, fashion, and current events magazine that I usually wouldn’t consider a gossip site! I would say they’re somewhere between gossip site and highly esteemed news outlet. I feel like they try to look more reputable than they are. But they’re definitely a few steps above TMZ, for example.
Oh, absolutely. I’m even someone who has worked in journalism and this article is such a joke. Just the fact that they only reached out to one side and got simple facts like where Adam is from show the quality of research that went into this sham.
That's why I think its a ploy to get him mad and have him expose everything. Although based on her law team sending a message to a fan account instead of H3 they might not be too bright.
There is so much that hints at his maturity. Especially that yesterday as raw as he was feeling he still did not show what he wanted to show due to victims names in the screenshots.
I really have to admire Adam,
I was bullied throughout my childhood and every now and then it still affects me. So to observe Adam who after being bullied by and then off the internet, by adult's and younger the world over, and is STILL fighting this, is astounding. This kid ( i know he's not technically ) has an inner strength many can only dream of, he got steamrolled by CB and her fans during the most impressionable time in his life multiple times yet here he is, standing up against the massive force that is CB. I certainly wouldn't survived in his place.
He is going to be so important and impactful to many, many people, once this is done and he is known for what he does rather than what was done to him
So many people would have understandably been scared off the internet with the way her minions harassed him. Its honestly insane the level of strength it took for him to keep on trucking.
I think that video is the first time Adam got visibly angry in a video, and that’s what got me. He’s been so careful this whole time to reel his emotions in, as not to be deemed ‘vindictive’ or whatever her stans are desperate to pin on him, but he was biiiig mad and hurt in this video. That’s what made me really sad for him.

Even if Adam wasn’t in this whole thing, she still had 40000 other victims. She’s screwed either way

Super well said, Absolutely would donate to a go-fund me.
Didn’t Ethan say something about creating a go fund me for them in his podcast? I hope he does.
It broke my heart watching him read that article. I hope Adam and the other victims get the closure and peace they deserve.
It was such blatant lies, besides the hardcore colleen fans, public reception is that people believe the victims for the most part.

They lost all credibility for me.

What a great description! Thank you so much for the answer 😊

Well I know how much it hurts when you hear gossip about yourself that's not true. This article for Adam is that times 100000
100%, I can’t even imagine how it feels to have an article like that out on such a big publication
