I hear what everyone is saying and his whole drama with the China thing, MH, and now AC does make him look like a little entitled spoiled brat. But I’ve never picked that up from him at all in any of his videos, and he does not come off this way to me.

He’s very respectful of those around him. He’s very pleasant, upbeat, and tries to make everyone feel comfortable and goes out of his way to blur or ensure they’re totally not included if they don’t want to be. Despite him being in a public space he doesn’t have to bend over backwards to just be a nice person. So I think we need to give credit where credit is due. He’s never come across as overly needy, or entitled ever. He’s never done anything specific to anyone that was mean or vindictive. Even when he was being the victim of atrocious behavior he’s always taken the high road. What I didn’t get about the AC episode was why the FA told him that and if the pilots boarded and said “hey josh whatever you need let us know” why he didn’t confront and ask for their assistance. Since essentially when you’re on a plane for a long duration of time the pilot(s) are the judge, jury, and executioner.

Yes those events were unfortunate, but I don’t think they should define him or that he set them up. I’ve had some pretty appalling treatment and series of unfortunate circumstances occur all very near to each other to me. That doesn’t mean I’m entitled or nasty or spoiled. Snit happens in life...
