Breatharians Update + New Video Underway! (2/26/21)
🕑 Added 2021-02-27 02:14:39 +0000 UTCHey, everyone! Hope you all are doing well. I just have a couple things to touch on in this progress report.
Let me address some FAQ regarding the Breatharians video which was recently removed from YouTube due to a copyright strike. First off, thank you all very much for your words of support. And if this is news to any of you, here's a brief run-down of the situation: https://twitter.com/AtrocityGuide/status/1361486794316017670
I will be uploading the video again in a re-edited state, but let me clarify: this will be a cosmetic edit only. I will be replacing some clips with similar ones which do not belong to a particular individual who's upset about being critiqued in the video, but they will still be discussed in the exact same way (they cannot copyright claim themselves, they can only claim their footage). The narrative will remain entirely unchanged. I won't be giving in to any demands of presenting Breatharianism or its advocates in a positive light, and it is my top priority that the journalistic integrity of the original video remain uncompromised.
As far as a re-release date: May 16th. This is when my current channel strike expires. I'm worried this person might strike me again once the video is re-uploaded, as some of their footage, such as their documentary which is heavily critiqued and thus protected under fair use, will be remaining. I do not want two strikes going at once. At three strikes, channels are deleted, along with the opportunity to make any future channels. And you never know when one could come out of nowhere.
In lighter news, the next video is underway! I was lucky to find a suitable topic in a faster-than-average timeframe, so I've already begun researching and outlining. This will be a more modern story, set in the video game industry, which I'm very excited about. I've done video game stories before, but never like this. This one will be much more of a character study, with a strong emphasis on the human element. There's lots of material to comb through, and the story itself is a bit of a knot that I'll be unraveling over the upcoming weeks and maybe months, but I can sense it already beginning to take shape. More updates to come.
To Patrons new and returning: It means a lot that you're here, and if you haven't already, feel free to say hello in our Discord: https://discord.gg/abqFxWG
Thank you for everything and I'll talk to you soon,

Hello Atrocity guide, I've read your Twitter post and I do not agree with your position. I like your videos not so much for the "debunking" but for your candor on presenting ideas and themes that are foreign to me. I think the "debunking" kind of video maker thinks so little of their audience that spend most their effort in steering and not so much on presenting. I love your work, and I love to share your work.

Excellent, I’m curious if there’s any way that the litigious party could be noted but otherwise happy for you to move past.
