annoying influencer breaks boycott, is shocked people dont like him 

The thing about trolls is no matter how often they say “it’s satire! I’m trolling!” There are ALWAYS people who their words pander to. And that’s exactly the problem

Forget the dates being wrong, your hair color is what truly shows how long this video has sat in copyright jail

Not only is he the nair guy he said he wants to roleplay being on Epstein island and said Taylor Swift when asked “Taylor swift or blm” and has done more…

It takes a very special kind of person to troll about such terrible things happening in the world. It’s low-key evil that they don’t take truly awful stuff seriously.

thank you for calling this out because so many people were defending him with the same "no ethical consumption under capitalism!!" shit and it's corny. that phrase doesn't give you an excuse to buy unethical products if you have the money TO CHOOSE SOMETHING ELSE!! its like people who buy $1000 shein hauls and then cry about how "well no ethical consumption under capitalism!!" despite the fact they're rich spoiled influencers and literally a part of the problem. you don't need starbucks to survive and iced coffee is so accessible these days. can we just get rid of all annoying twink influencers at this point LMFAOO.

He says that it would be like not going to your favourite cafe. One; Starbucks being your favourite cafe is sad, and two; that kinda happened where I live. there was a doughnut and coffee place that was so popular, there was always a massive queue, it was the place to go on the weekend or if you had a day off. Then it was found out the owners were not good people, like possible nazi connections bad. They were dropped instantly, like shut within a day, and people just moved on because people win over coffee, and doughnuts.

what's crazy is he could've simply... not made the video? if he /really/ needed starbucks specifically so badly, he could've gotten it and... not shared to his massive platform? the obsessive necessity for attention is astoundingly cringe

Trolling or not aside, there is no such thing as a pass on a boycott, that's just breaking the boycott!

The amount of people willing to throw away any morals over a cup of coffee

'my biggest fear is my mom and friends dying' is such a weird thing to bring up. like... thats everyones fear?? that doesn't make the situation any better??

Is that the Nair guy?

his excuse being “i just really love starbucks please give me a pass” girl no

Honestly, I think once you get to a certain level of popularity, trolling like this becomes EXTRMEMELY harmful. If you're an actual successful troll, people won't know whether it's real or not. Like, I imagine there are more than a few people who don't know he's trolling and have his exact same mindset. Seeing a really popular person spewing nonsense like that just reinforces their line of thinking. That's the most annoying part about this whole thing, it's an endless cycle.

We are still boycotting Starbucks but not just for Palestine, we are also boycotting because of the union busting policies and the poor treatment of Starbucks baristas.

so glad you decided to keep that legendary title.

Of all the things to break boycott for, it had to be shitty coffee, which is surpassed in quality by virtually every other coffee establishment in the country.

“I sympathise but not enough to refrain from buying a cheap coffee”.

he's the same guy who said 1989 by taylor swift deserved album of the year over to pimp a butterfly by kendrick lamar so... i don't really expect much from him

THANK YOU. Heard first thing, “Boycott Starbucks because they’re treating their employees poorly,” and haven’t bought Starbucks in MONTHS. It’s really fucking easy (even moreso now that a drink from them costs $10+).

I'm so happy this video came out, I have hated this guy since the very beginning and I cannot stand how so many people just write off all of the horrible things he's said because they think he's funny for whatever reason

Thank you for advocating for our rights ❤ speaking of Ohio, I was bawling my eyes out when I heard about the woman who was arrested after her miscarriage and I’m so relieved the grand jury she went in front of knew it was bullshit and didn’t indict her. I feel so bad for her and truly hope she can heal from all the trauma she just endured. I’m so tired of the government trying to step into everyone’s medical care! But they would never tell a straight white man what to do with their bodies, right?🙄 we all deserve the right to choose, and especially shouldn’t be getting prosecuted over something that isn’t even a choice like a miscarriage. The whole thing makes me so sick. Like it’s 2024, what happened to all the work that was done over decades, if not centuries of bullshit! Something needs to give. But yeah I just wanted to say I appreciate you so much Grayson! You’re amazing ❤

Thank you for using your platform to bring awareness to this

Just a note, all coffee grounds have bugs in them. Not just Starbucks. it is impossible for coffee to be processed without any bugs being included

literally the least he could do was, yknow, not post the video. like going to sbux off camera and not mentioning it online would be one thing, but he goes thru filming and posting the tiktok despite knowing about the boycott and then cries about the backlash? girl, get real

i'm glad someone is criticizing this guy, it's kinda sad that it took this long for people to realize how horrible sbux is to their union though

The “nair video” is just shocking. In the first 10 seconds you get flashed. No warning

Love that he brings up the killings by Hamas but just disregards the retaliation atrocities that are still happening

Psa there's somebody in the comments (@/ville__) who keeps spamming comments to check their channel which leads to a video of cp (child corn if you get me) as well as their misogynistic and homophobic rants all in their community posts. Please be aware, block, report etc

My boyfriend works at starbucks, he loves how quiet it's been recently

You are the only youtuber I know openly speaking about this genocide, thank you so much.

Omg I hate when influencers expect others to do research for them instead of just looking it up themselves.. like your whole job is literally being on the internet but you don’t know how to google something??😭

I know this guy from some clips that ppl were sharing of TikTok lives where people were like “erm trans rights or reputation” or whatever and it was so cringe because he’s so obviously a troll and a very unfunny one at that and it pisses me off when people fall for something so stupid

Off topic, but I LOVE your outfit in this video, Grayson. Itms so cute and witchy

It makes me irrationally angry when people can't give up stuff that like, sucks. Stuff that is low quality and bad for them and expensive. I'm a former barista who is in the video game sphere and it feels like everyone around me just refuses to think critically about either.

this is the most embarrassing yet filthy shit someone can do on the internet even for a troll who opened his cheeks on a video platform

i definitely think that this unscripted content fits you well! you bring up good points and you speak eloquently :) good video!

His trolling money will come and go but the reputation of his bad decisions are permanent

Its not only the fact he doesn't give a damn about the boycotts (and chooses to ignore it) its also the fact he is the biggest victim of capitalism, like a fill fledged starbucks fanboy, like its so cringe

You are so much more confident and authentic in your videos now, it reminds me of your old 2020 days before you got really big. It’s so awesome to see ❤️

New Grayson video? I’m seated.

As soon as I realized there was a boycott on McDonalds, Starbucks, Coke, etc. it was the easiest shit I have ever participated in. I haven’t bought anything from those since October and I haven’t missed it at all, especially Starbucks. It doesn’t matter if he was a trol, it’s still disgusting for him to purposely get clout for getting Starbucks and acting like a victim when people called him out for supporting a genocide with his money.

Please please keep talking about this. Palestine needs our voices. There is not enough people talking about what’s going on in Gaza in the RU-vid community and I appreciate you so much for speaking on this. Please please continue to raise awareness Palestinians need us. My best friend is a Palestinian woman and never in my life have I witnessed so much pain and suffering first hand. 11 of her family members have been martyred. She is so scared and heart broken and her seeing people finally standing with her, her family, her people, and ancestors is genuinely something she and every other Palestinian person needs. This is so big thank you so much.

but the thing is, bds has shown support for the starbucks boycott yet people keep using it not being on the official lists so they can force themselves to feel better about not truly caring about the boycott.

Oh my god the video isn't even 5 minutes in and your hair has changed like 4 times and I'm loving all of it. Your hair is always so pretty!

He really showed his whole ass on this one.

i just want to say thank you for covering the full scale of the Starbucks boycott issue. so many creators on RU-vid have been covering the "scandal" and are completely clueless as to where or why this retaliation of the company stemmed, and even youtubers i trust to do proper investigation and who would obviously be against such crisises that are happening in Palestine still have no idea what is happening and it breaks my heart how there really are very small parts of the internet where people are uplifting the voices of people suffering from IDF's reckless ignorance. I know it must be hard to cover issues as these due to how dark the situation is, but as a new subscriber, please know that I understand and you have no idea how much it means to so many people that you are using your platform to uplift and encourage learning the truth of such corrupt governments and companies.

i love this style of video! i feel like we’re just chatting & it’s so fun

I live in Nebraska, which is basically nowhere and we were the first state to prosecute someone for obtaining services. I’m never proud of this place.

When I worked there, my cowokers and I all agreed Starbucks coffee sucked and thats why people put so much syrup in their drinks.

I loved this format please do It more

Honestly I wouldn’t give that guy (clown) any attention. People like that don’t care about others, just ignore them.

When ppl think this is the kind of main character behaviour we want. Ewww, my desires first before ppl's lives. yuck

YT won’t let me comment that gen 0 cide is wrong, and 75y of colo is not 2 sides war…

“im gonna off myself in front of you and change the trajectory of your life for ever” OMG i’m gonna use that one

i loved that subtle tweet reference when you were talking abt trisha :)

it’s crazy that you’re one of the only youtubers i’ve seen talking about palestine. you, jordan theresa, matt bernstein. not much else. thank you!!, but also, it’s the bare minimum

u look like jinx from teen titans

Honestly I don't know anyone boycotting personally, it's all very much online from my view on it. But to go on social media bragging like this is....weird.

Mf coulda just went and got a coffee and not told everyone. I'm pretty sure that's what everyone else does

you're honestly the best lol thank you for this

even its a bit, it's not funny? like the "joke" (if it is 100% a joke, which i doubt) is just "i care more about mediocre overpriced coffee than i do actual human lives" like. what's the joke, beloathed. what's funny about it please explain it to me. and also regardless of how much he's joking or not he's still actively supporting starbucks, even if its "for the bit". also, when people say that not supporting so and so won't do anything, i'm just like.. it's not always about dollar amounts, its about showing the affected people that you care about them. it's like how maybe you personally giving up harry potter won't end jk rowling's career, but it will show the trans people in your life (and, if you're an influencer, in your audience) that you care about them more than you care about your fandom (like you should). and so by refusing to boycott starbucks because you just like it so much, you're showing palestinians, the union being sued, and both of their supporters that you care more about your coffee than you do their health and happiness and fucking lives.

6:29 It’s not him that he was showin hole, IT WAS JUST ABRUPT AS HELL

i just found your channel! this is gonna sound random, but i love your voice 😭 it’s so relaxing idk. Anyways this was a great video, enjoyed it a lot.

loved 22:37 because its so interesting how trolls are essentially given a platform by people dismissing criticisim of them. if we all agree to "make fun" of trolls by feeding them attention we are giving them the platform they wanted in the first place

i appreciate you for speaking out and using your platform. i dont watch a lot of people on youtube and dwkt was one of my faves and when they refused to speak on it and lily got block happy… i just was beyond disappointed. thank you for just being a good person. i know its “bare minimum” but it just means a lot to me to contribute to giving someone w platform that is on the right side of history or just yk.. shows humanity.

your voice is so comforting

i only recognized this guy from a stitch tiktok where he says he wishes he was there when his country was colonized lmfao. the stitch was just someone going fucku basically

about the nair one, it’s not about how surprising the content itself is, it’s just that it’s literally barely 4 seconds u have like no time to prepare

unrelated but girl i need those headphones!!!

THANK YOU. i was so upset when he said "i feel bad about the bombings BUT-" But????? Children are dying.

red hair suits u so well omg. this video was good btw!!!

This guy obviously stands for nothing and beleives in nothing. He cant even pretend to do armchair/online activism. He doesnt give two craps about Gaza, only using it for clout

Absolutely love the moon and skull necklace you’re wearing!!

U killed it with this video style

I honestly just appreciate you bringing up the boycott

damn, hoodie looks COMFY

I actually really liked listening to this while I work, just so you know, there are 29/30 year olds like myself who watch you and this is really good for listening while driving / working so thank you. This coverage is excellent and I agreed with all of your points. I have not been to a Starbucks since last year and neither has my wife.

YEAH IM IN OHIO & I VOTED - LETS GOOO REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS

Thank you for fighting to get this published despite copyright jail! I enjoyed the content for sure. As someone whose been boycotting/protesting for a long time, Starbucks has actually been a Palestinian boycott for a LONG time. (You can find a reference to the boycott in in Loweky's song Love Live Palestine) They put on their website years ago that they do not financially support the IOF, which is true. Legally Starbucks has to disclose it. However, the owner himself seems to be a huge donator, and he won an award for being a friend of I*rael. Regardless, the boycott partially fizzled out until Starbucks decided to sue the union, doubling down on their anti union stance and anti palestine stance as a company. I think this goes to show just how important solidarity between groups is! Pro union and pro Palestine go hand in hand. Pro Palestine and BLM go hand in hand, as cops in certain areas have been trained by the IOF. Anyway back to your content, I think you explained why this boycott against Starbucks is happening perfectly. As well as why speaking out matters. Troll or no, we The People have to stand united because our government DOES NOT CARE. They want to name a street BLM but increase funding to cops, they want to add an arab sensitivity delegation but not call for a ceasefire or stop sending weapons, they want to pretend to be pro union or pro abortion or pro trans but not codify anything when they have the chance. It's just us and there's actually so many cool local cafes that I've found! Go get a new comfort place.

there's bugs in all coffee grounds btw. just like there's bugs in all chocolate. there's genuinely no way to prevent it 100%

i was not expecting reiner braun to be in this video but very much appreciated it anyway. this video discusses a genuine problem that needs to be spoken about but wanted i wanted to note the non relevant part of the video, a lot of comments expand on the main point

you can literally just make coffee at home and itd probably taste better than starbucks crapwater

Not the Nair guy 😂

“What about the workers?” I know someone who works at starbucks and everyone but the manager went on strike and didn’t go in for work in support for a day.🤦🏻‍♀️The employees get to write out a bag every week for free and this person doesn’t drink coffee so I get it and it’s absolutely not worth the price. Like it’s fine but I don’t get why people think it’s the holy grail of coffee

Dude needed to seriously think before he spoke, at all.

i absolutely loved this, you are so well-spoken and amazing!! i am always looking forward to your videos

I love u grayson😭

25:30 he says like “oh please educate me” but he has friends who are already trying to do that?? and he’s just not listening to them?? like yeah absolutely do research and hear from multiple people on issues, maybe other people know of resources his friends don’t, but if he’s already not listening to his friends and learning from or caring about what they’re sending him then what are other people on the internet gonna be able to do

OMG THIS GUYS TAKES HAVE BEEN GIVING ME THE ICK FOR A HOT ASS MINUTE THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT HIM OMG

When you explained the d rid re of trolls this is every H3 fan ever. Well put

I do really miss your social commentary content, that was the original reason I started following you :)

my yt didnt showed me your last like 4 videos?? it thought that you are just not posting?? and i am subscribing lol

Where did you get your Sherpa? I’m in love with the print

That jumper at the start is amazing where did it come from?!

I haven’t seen your channel in awhile! I’m so glad to have found you again, thank you for covering this topic…I can’t stand this guy…

5:06 😂😂 fairs dude

Bro this guy is so icky

the burping at the start of his video says enough tbh

What shirt is Grayson wearing in the ad segment? Does anyone know?

I would equate drive thru trolling to a prank that one party didn't consent to. It's just uncomfortable on my end.
