      Yeah, he’s a guy who’s 45 approaching his 50s and his prime years are past him and he’s trying extend those years with steroids. I think it’s more of a pride thing, like he believes that he can still look better than guys half his age (which is true, he looks better than 99.9% of men). But In reality it’s perfectly fine for your physique to get worse as you age that’s what’s supposed to happen.

      i don’t think his personal life has really anything to do with the scam he’s running. it’s equally bad either way, he’s selling nonsense supplements and telling people to eat raw meat. i just think that’s bad enough on its own i don’t even understand the controversy. he’s a hypocrite AND a scammer? does that make the scamming work? do i even care about his scam?
      i’m not saying that being gullible or being an easy target means you deserve to be scammed. i just don’t see what’s so different about THIS scam compared to others.

Fine, I'll accept a fabricated image if it makes you feel so much better. The guy's gone through hard times, and that's alright because I can't take that away from him because I'm also human. However I'm sure that the next step after this apology (and I don't know if he's done this or not by now) should be to reformat his channel to never mention the 'liver king' lifestyle in a way that tries to promote it or put it up ever again, and to never bring in his products as part of the lifestyle that he's trying to portray. I think he's genuinely an 'alright' guy, but he's more aligned with a lot of 'alright' guys who find a little success in the business industry and get carried away and lose a bit of their morals as they go. Out of all situations where public figures have 'lied' about something, this is what I consider a salvageable situation.
      I truly hope the guy figures his life out, he seems like a good dude, I just hope that his reflections on life also include the dubious nature of his past activities as an influencer.

    i really appreciate danny addressing the underlying mental health issue that Liver King both experiences and (advertently or not) perpetuates. i am obviously not a psychiatrist, but as someone who has been diagnosed with body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), i think Liver King displays a lot of its symptoms. obsession with food intake/diet, insecurities about physical flaws that are invisible to everyone else, seeking out invasive and expensive medical procedures to fix those "flaws", and over-exercising (sometimes as a means of self-harm), are all very characteristic of BDD. i know i have personally experienced all four. but, while i have empathy for Liver King's mental health struggles, it is unacceptable to advertise this extremely unhealthy mindset and body as attainable or even remotely positive. i now completely avoid exercise, diet, and lifestyle content for this very reason. even if it is not as extreme as Liver King, so much of it is BDD served up to audiences on a platter.

      Yeah, pretty twisted apology, especially the part about doing it for the suicidals. I was engaged to a man who ended his life and had body insecurity issues. This dude taking roids wouldn’t have saved him. Steroid use can actually increase suicidal thoughts and actions, so go back to your hidey hole and mainline some raw sausage, caveman.

    I feel like the liver king was so close to self-awareness here, but he doesn't quite reach it. He talks about how his insecurity drove him to do all this, without ever making the final leap that maybe the reason why it hasn't worked is because insecurity and anxiety is often detached from external reality. if you aren't kind and accepting toward yourself in all your potential forms, then no change to your body is going to give that to you.

      Exactly. He came as close as he could to taking responsibility for the damage he's cause people by lying and encouraging them to live a lifestyle that's a complete scam without actually taking responsibility. He just used the "I have mental issues" cop out. And the worst part is that it's going to work. People are going to accept it and he's going to get away with setting up his fans to fail. He gave them advice that he KNEW would never work, and would even be counterproductive, just for greed. And yet people are going to feel sorry for him, not the people he convinced to live a lie

    My favorite thing about his "sorry I got caught" video was that he brought up doing this for all the thousands who unalive themselves. Because when they do his program and are never able to reach that physic no matter how hard they try, that'll fix their self esteem and mental health 🤦‍♀️ Which is ironic because his low self esteem was the very reason he said he went on steroids.

    • @idontwantahandlethough

      Yeah, right? That was really shitty of him. He did it for himself and his _own_ self esteem issues, not for anyone else (and even then, he didn't actually put in the hard work required for that kind of issue.. he tried to take the easy way, the shortcut. Not saying I've never done that though lol). Idk why people always do this, making a good apology is not that hard. You just say you messed up, you know you messed up, you feel horrible about it, and you're willing to do whatever it takes to make sure you never make that mistake ever again. That's it. Don't try to minimize it, don't try to rationalize it, don't try to tell people they're "misinterpreting".

      "Unalive" don't be fucking immature when talking about suicide. Say what it is, "suicide" or "they killed themselves". No one who has someone close to them commit suicide wants to hear some dumb soy drinking jerkoff refer to their act as "unaliving themselves" Jesus Christ.

      Please don't use "unalive" as a euphemism for suicide. As someone who's been personally affected by that, it's really annoying and in my opinion ultimately harmful. I know maybe you're thinking about the youtube algorithm or something probably censoring something with the word "suicide" in it, but I'm not sure that applies to comments, and also even if it did, I feel an obligation to stand up against that kind of harmful censoring. It just feels a little insulting and infantilizing, not to be mean to you or blame you or anything like that, just trying to inform.

      @@penguinsrbirds2 People use it because a lot of channels have key words they don't allow in their comment sections and the whole comment will get deleted. It's not a slight or an offense to survivors. Sometimes it's the only way to talk about it by having to use different words, unfortunately. It's just how it is on these platforms. And if someone is a survivor and needs to use a different word, let them, if that's where they're at in the process. If you need to say it, say it but it's already a difficult enough subject that we don't need to be policing how people discuss their trauma.

    A few points: One, he was spending 11k a month on just *one* of the many brands of steroids he was taking. I can’t fathom how much he was spending *in total* on his ‘roids. Second, excess steroid use is dumb af and I’m not surprised it wasn’t working for him. Everyone has both testosterone *and* estrogens in their body, and when there is too much of one type of sex hormone, the body naturally converts one into the other in order to maintain homeostasis. So all that extra testosterone was just being converted into estrogens to maintain a certain sex hormone ratio. That’s why anabolic steroids inevitably reach a point of diminishing returns. Third, he definitely seems to be dealing with severe body dysmorphia and the dude needs *therapy* not steroids and self-abusive workout routines.

So, he does have some responsibility to be transparent.
