you know what could resolve this? a quick private conversation saying "this is fucking stupid ethan please lets mutually stop talking shit about each other publicly".
A private conversation with Ethan saying that would result in Ethan mocking her to her face, and lording it over her that he won.
A private conversation with Ethan saying that, that she secretly recorded and then leaked to demonstrate he's a scumbag, would result in another lolsuit she can't afford for breach of her non-disparagement clause (while he mocks her on the pod and also plays the victim).
Saying "shut the fuck Ethan Klein, you stupid child neglecting pillhead who killed his dog" would get her instantly sued and dogpiled by his insane fans (but would be very funny).
A public, respectful, conversation with Ethan would simultaneously get Ethan mocking her and and suing her for breach of her non-disparagement clause. Regardless of whether or not it holds water, she can't afford legal representation for another lolsuit.
Her only options are either sit there and take it while Ethan shits on her (Ethan's desired outcome) or make veiled references with plausible deniability. I know which one I'd pick.
It worked for idubbbz against sam hyde, probably the only smart thing idubbbz has done post cuckening, even though he still didnt keep up his side of the deal because hes a dumb faggot. luckily for him sam didnt see any fun in mocking him any more after a point.
Sam Hyde views himself as having principles. It's why he tried to take Alex under his wing on Fishtank, despite Alex being completely insufferable. You can reason with the Candyman within his moral framework.
Ethan has no principles beyond
- Things that make me money are good
- People who like me are good
- Israel good
which is why he ended up doing a podcast with Hasan Piker up until #3 undermined #1 and #2. If Ethan views you as an enemy you cannot negotiate with him, your only options are to cave completely or somehow threaten #1 (which is why he doesn't mess with Destiny)
