Hey everyone, my name is Anthony and welcome back to the countdown.
Well, looks like we're coming to an end of the decade of 2010, it feels like a roller coaster ride from great to downright nightmare right now before we reach to 2020. When it comes to 2019, it feels more like the final nail of the coffin of badness, its almost the whole world hate ourselves and unprepared before we're moving to the next decade.
So, as you already guess the title, im gonna make another list of controversial moments of the final year of the 2010 decade, but as always, these are the pick that what i considered to be downright questionable to stupidity. But there's too much and hard to pick like Brexit and few others out there.
So, lets looking back with my 10 Controversial moments of 2019, lets dive in, shall we?
Number 10: US Government shutdown
Now lets start with the one that it not just a massive backlash for its shut down, but it also declared as the new longest Government shutdown ever from end of 2018 to the beginning of 2019.
The reason why it was shut down, its because captain orange face Donald Trump refused to agreeing the appropriations bill in order to funding at the federal government or perhaps he was begging for the bill in order to tell the Mexicans to F*** off in order to building the border wall with over $5.7 billion.
This is gotta be one of the worst excuse ever that there's no reason to shut down, when thousands of employees are being punished by the so-called "President of America" for shut down partially and various employees barely earning profits while in jobs. which it took over 35 days to wait if Trump needs to be F*** off to let us earning royalties.
Thankfully, Trump does recovered the debacle in January 25th 2019, which despite many employees lived happily ever after, but Trump is still begging for the bills for the wall like an obnoxious rich kid. Lets hope Trump will be defeated by Bernie Sanders in the presidential election in 2020 to bringing peace in America.
Number 9: Projared's fallen from the grace LIED
From several years ago, we had several Youtubers fell from the grace over their controversies like DaddyOfive (though he's got banned by Youtube, thank god) as well with some who's still getting away without punishment like Logan Paul, PrankInvasion and Onision. But, there's one person that we though he deserved to be hated, but proving us that we're wrong, that is my favorite game reviewer Projared.
For several years, Jared Knabenbauer became a new star of game review that we enjoyed to watch his videos, whether his reviews of games, talking about Dungeons and Dragons, Pokemon Nuzlocke Challenge and appeared as a special guest of various videos.
However, things went into a boiling point, where Jared announced that he broke up his ex-girlfriend Heldi for changing reason, but Heldi proving him to be a liar that he's one of those celebrities who got cheated to having a fair with another girl named Holly, but thats not all, he was also exposed for the fact that he sends his nude photo of his towards his fans (including two underage between 15 to 16) in order to gain fame, resulting Jared losing his fame, including lose his subscribers 20%. Not to mention, Holly is desperate to defending him, claiming that Heldi assaulted Jared to losing his D&D career, but Heldi denied and calling her a liar too. Its more of a "She said/She said" when it comes to Jared's reputation.
After several months, Jared came back in September 2019 to get off his chest that not only he issued an apology, but it turns out that we hurt him with lies. According to him, he had to talking to the lawyer for investigation about his action since the past. Jared said that he didn't show his private part to his fans (just his torso and thats it) and he wanted to apologizing to the two underage "fans", but not only they refuse to accepting his apology, but they made the evidence in order to make him look like a pedophile, despite Jared didn't noticed that they're not only underage, but they also want to scamming anyone for their work. As for his "cheating" to Heldi, he didn't cheated on her, he was attempt to file a divorce since October 2018 since he talked to the lawyer for breaking up at Heldi, but Heldi still didn't believe his truth.
In the end, it seems that Jared has finally cleaned up to showcase the evidence that we're all wrong for what he's done, in other words, he's proven to be innocent that he's been falsely accused of his action, despite he didn't realizing about the underage and his early plan to break up with his ex. And of course, he's back in positive and he's going back in Youtube to gain his subscribers back.
Thats why i put his "fallen from grace" in the lower list, because at least he did tell the truth, unlike many rich kids on Youtube who're always getting away...
Number 8: UK Parliament of loot boxes
Lets face it, the video game industry is in problem for not just the excuse that il get one later, but its companies greedy decision of Microtransactions since Mobile games, even the big names like SEGA, Nintendo and Ubisoft jump on the bandwagon of mobile games.
But the real deal for their excuses is the use of "Loot Boxes", they're everywhere for their demanding for our wallet. We just can't take it, even the politics agree, by calling those as a gambling for young kids. This is exactly how the Europe took notice and plan to banning them for the video game industry, specially in Belgium.
So, in UK, they went to a parliament with several employees from EA and Epic Games to considering that Loot Boxes are harmful to kids without permission, but for brainless reason, two employees from EA and Epic defending themselves by saying "They're not Loot Boxes, we called "Supruise Mechanic"!!" and "Supwize Mechanic are not harmful, we doing this for money that kids would wuv it! Waahh!!". I mean, who the hell says that?! This is one of the worst excuses i've ever in my life since EA's "Pride and accomplishment".
I think that we can all agree that because of excuses, there's no way to defeating the politics, because they'll take the government to going after some games that including Loot Boxes and Microtransactions by putting a higher rating to make sure that kids will never buy them without parents's permission.
But lets hope the US will also going after the several game companies to outlawing games with Microtransactions that kids will not allowed, or they'll facing consequences from COPPA.
Number 7: So many remakes movies, so bigger time
As far as i know, the whole remake is now becoming a trend in Hollywood. Though im not talking about the TV shows or even the video games, though then show is debatable and the video game has some good one, for the most parts...
But what i am about to complaining, its the whole movies with remake, which it really makes the movie goers (including me) getting frustrated and questioning if Hollywood and studios are running out of ideas for money.
One of them is obviously Disney. Don't give me wrong, Disney has made a lot of films that are fun, entertaining and a magic into them. But its just that Disney are so desperate to make another big movie for making a live action remake of our nostalgia films like Dumbo, Aladdin and The Lion King, which a lot of them are successful for their quick cash. Especially the remake of The Lion King, which it reached over 1 billion dollars, i was pissed off when i heard and Disney keeps planning to make another remakes for not just in theaters, but also in Disney+ as well.
Of course, Disney isn't the only company for milking the old films, like Hellboy (which it was easily flopped that no one was asked for), Pet Sematary, Charlie's Angels (not because of this movie, but the actress/director Elizabeth Banks is acting like a drama queen when her movie failed, Badly...!) and even Black Christmas for the second time...!
In the end, i am still begging for various studio for when they're gonna stop staying in the bandwagon trend of remakes, we like to see something original or even done in adaptation. Instead of wasting their time and the budget for making the movie remake out there.
Number 6: So many mass shootings in USA and the blaming of video games
Lets face it, US is pretty much in danger with so many shooters for decades, especially that i already mentioned in my last year's list.
But things went further that as im working, there are over 400 mass shootings in US with more than 1,400 people were survived but injured and more than 400 were killed and the most ever occurred of shooting is on August 2019 with over 89 people were killed. and to this day, we're still protesting to stop the mass shooting and the gun controls need to be expanded.
But of course, the final nail of the coffin that ever since the shootings happened, many people (yes, including Donald Trump) are putting the blame over the video games for creating mass shootings. And that really pissing me off that lot of people and i calling "It" as an excuse to get attention on medias and even on the internet. Which resulting that several stores (including Walmart) planned to stop advertising the games with guns, despite that they also have guns on their stock, which not only its just stupid, but also hypocrite as well.
In fact, one of my favorite game reviewer Angry Joe took notice about the excuse by doing the research about the video games popularity and the revenue between USA and Japan, which obviously that its not just we called the statement as inexcusable, but Japan doesn't have a mass shooting to this day (correct me if im wrong in the comment, please) and the mass shooting obviously came from mental problems like racism, homophobic and even hatred.
So lets hope there will be a less shooting once we moving the next decade and if only the surveillance will be quickly alerted if there's another shooter out there to be arrested or perhaps the shooters will get killed (i know that killing without mercy is wrong, but i prefer to hear the bad guys dying, no offense).
Number 5: KyoAni's arson attack
This incident took place in Kyoto, Japan, where an arson who took the accusation to a serious level that he accused the studio as a "plagiarism" of his own novel (when he was in hospital), which he proceeded to attack the studio by set the place on fire for his "revenge". I mean, "revenge" isn't helping very much, when his blaze literally destroyed projects, computers and worst of all, killing some of designers and directors of Anime series, including Yasuhiro Takemoto, who's famously involved with K-On!, Clannad and even The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya
It is a very devastated moment when this ever happened and it was maybe considered as the most deadliest incident since either Myojo 56 building fire in 2001 or even World War II. With all the damages and injuries, i hope they'll find a better place the fire incident in Japan will never happen again, may wish them a good life.
Number 4: Canadian election and #Wexit
Now this one is really difficult to talk about, but i had to pick this on the list, due to my concern of my homeland Canada.
Before we get to the election, we expected to have a good people out there to make Canada to a new level in positive? Nope!
Instead we have almost all the parties that they're not helping, with Justin Trudeau (in Liberal) wanted to raising taxes to save the environment, despite he's already being exposed for his insensitive racism, Andrew Scheer (in Conservative) is pretty much being denial and delusional for his anti-support of environment, Jagmeet Singh also wanted to raising taxes, Yves-François Blanchet wanted Quebec as separated country and Maxime Bernier is pretty much in hatred level in the country.
At the end of the election, Trudeau remains his role as a Prime Minister which despite he has lesser vote from Scheer, he has more seats than Scheer, leaving the Conservative look like a punching bag for the voters, it was bad that everyone in Alberta are jumping on bandwagon with #Wexit in order unionizing as a independent country/nation, but it was made with internet bots and probably disinformation in order to get attention and more hate at Trudeau on the internet like Twitter.
For right now, even though i may or may not cared about the Canadian politics, its just that im concerned for my country's fate based on the future plan and other stuff...
Number 3: Blizzard's banning over politics
Lets face it, Blizzard in 2019 is rather... Abysmal for say the least, especially since they're with Activision.
There had been plenty of bad moments like over 800 employees been layoff for the lack of pay, despite Activision Blizzard still own their profits. But none can compare for what happened during the end of Hearthstone Grandmasters streaming event.
In October 2019, a Hong Kong played named "Blitzchung" won the match with $10K and during the interview, he came with a mask to proclaim that he support the protesters during the "Hong Kong Protest 2019" (which the protest is about the problem with the fugitive bills since March 2019, but thats a different story). So, you think Blizzard will accept his support based on the protest, right? Nope!
Blizzard just give him a one-year ban and stripped his reward, because of this, it received a huge backlash that not only its unfair to DQ'd the winner, but also abusing the free-speech when we like to talking about politic whatever we want, but Blizzard banned the winner, because they're too scared to hearing this! Witht he backlash, everyone are jumping on the bandwagon with "#BoycottBlizzard" to telling them never abusing the free speech and they need to support the protesters from Hong Kong, but Blizzard refused to take our criticism by banning more people on website for abusing the free-speech again and again.
After the madness, during Blizzcon, the CEO of the company J. Allen Brack came to respond about the incident to issue with apology with reducing Blitzchung's ban to six months, but his apology is so vague and not helping that it might as well be translated to "Sorry, but not sorry!". Because of this, the U.S. Congress are going after Blizzard for what they've done for their action (with the aforementioned reducing suspension and even Nintendo of America are canceling Overwatch launch on Switch in New York because of Bizzard.
In the end, we can all agree that the way where Blizzard's did to the winner's suspension is downright disrespectful and as always, abusing the free speech.
And speaking of abusing free speech...
Number 2: Article 13 passed
Well, looks like we're coming to an end of the decade of 2010, it feels like a roller coaster ride from great to downright nightmare right now before we reach to 2020. When it comes to 2019, it feels more like the final nail of the coffin of badness, its almost the whole world hate ourselves and unprepared before we're moving to the next decade.

Lets hope Trump will be defeated by Bernie Sanders in the presidential election in 2020 to bringing peace in America.

Number 5: KyoAni's arson attack
You know, i've talk about the controversies of movies, video games, politics and society, but i've never talking about the controversies of Anime, but this incident needs to be talked about for looking back and i gotta say, it really hurts in the Anime community.
This incident took place in Kyoto, Japan, where an arson who took the accusation to a serious level that he accused the studio as a "plagiarism" of his own novel (when he was in hospital), which he proceeded to attack the studio by set the place on fire for his "revenge". I mean, "revenge" isn't helping very much, when his blaze literally destroyed projects, computers and worst of all, killing some of designers and directors of Anime series, including Yasuhiro Takemoto, who's famously involved with K-On!, Clannad and even The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya

Number 3: Blizzard's banning over politics
Lets face it, Blizzard in 2019 is rather... Abysmal for say the least, especially since they're with Activision.
There had been plenty of bad moments like over 800 employees been layoff for the lack of pay, despite Activision Blizzard still own their profits. But none can compare for what happened during the end of Hearthstone Grandmasters streaming event.

In the end, we can all agree that the way where Blizzard's did to the winner's suspension is downright disrespectful and as always, abusing the free speech.
And speaking of abusing free speech...
Number 2: Article 13 passed
If you though the repeal of Net Neutrality is bad, well this one is gonna be ever worse for European users on the internet. Though the whole "Save Net Neutrality" is still going since two years ago, the senators are supportive of Net Neutrality and we'll keep spreading for peace.
Meanwhile, the European Union has made even worse what we heard, by making a new law for censoring memes!
As i said from last year's list of controversies, EU made a law of Article 13 and 15 that according to their law is to going full force of copyright infringement against all the posts from movies and music from our freedom. Which is nothing but a plan of censorship.
With our words spreading to save the memes in Europe, you think that EU will accept our issue? Nope!
The vote has already passed that Article 13 and 15 are approved that it will affect around in 2021, at least its what they said. It was so bad that it resulting into a protest from many European users, as well with criticisms with Youtube and Twitch.
Plus, one woman named Julia Reda believed that Article 13 might be considered to be violated from CETA (Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement), which is not secret that it might ruining the Fair Use, which that will made me scared if this will affecting my homeland Canada too. We can all agree that EU just doesn't know how the internet work that we like to posting every memes with jokes and Dankest. But based on EU's decision, that will easily ruined my fellow friends from Europe, which is not only unfair, but also a blatant censorship.
I could've easily picked this as a number one spot, but i dropped on number 2, because at least the internet is still open in Europe and we have to keep spreading to cancel the law for Fair Use, except the one that makes on top spot...!
And now... My number one the most Controversial of the year goes to...!
Number 1: Youtube's fallen from grace and carelessness
You know this coming, don't you?
For nearly 15 years, Youtube is no secret to be most visited and detestably the best site we always like going in there, watching videos and joking with. But sadly, everyone about Youtube is nothing but fell apart from its punishment.
Which in 2018, many groups filed multiple complaints at Federal Trade Commission about Youtube collecting data of children, which it was confirmed in September 2019 that Youtube had to fine the damage with over $170 million dollars. Because of this, Youtube had to make a new rule, but not the good kind.
For example from their new rule, if you upload a video as "For kids", you get NOTHING! No comments, no rating, no recommendation, no looking back on your history, no notification about the video and no monetization (which means you get no profit on your account). But if you make a video as "Not for kids", Youtube will automatically took notice on your video that it looks like a kid content that you get fined $42,000 per video. Otherwise if you have over million videos, thats about more than $4 Million! Im not exaggerating for the creators's while doing my own calculation for the future.
Because of this, the new rule (before it'll starts in early 2020) received a major criticisms that it'll easily ruins Youtubers's career that they'll either losing their home, their job or even going in jail. Because of this not only makes Youtubers concerned, but so does FTC as well. Which to be clarified, FTC are not involved of Youtube's changing rule, it was Youtube themselves for changing the rule that it hurts us. In fact, FTC opened a comment reception (to be positive of course) about the COPPA for changing after 20 years and even tell Youtube to including "General audience" rating. In fact Youtube sent their comment to verify at FTC if their new rule is helping (which i say otherwise, meaning that this "New Rule" isn't helping for the future).
Unfortunately, it seems that Youtube will never learn their lesson about our videos and criticisms, which we can all agree that Youtube is dying before 2020. They uploaded "Youtube Rewind 2020", which they're too desperate to stay positive, but the damage was already done, because we're pissed and concerned over Youtube's future plan and probably the final nail of the coffin is that Youtube was so desperate to stay positive by upgrading their guideline in order to automatically flag down the videos that are deemed "Harassment", one of them is one of my favorite Youtuber IdubbbzTV's video "Content Deputy", where he criticized over at Youtuber named "Leafyishere", who's infamous for bullying at innocent users with mental issues like Autism, eating addiction, retardation and few others. Which instead of punishing Leafy, Youtube just straight up punishing innocent user like Idubbbz for quote-on-quote "Harassment". This is just nothing but a blatant Censorship in their desperation to stay positive in the community, its like Youtube treats you like Shit!
In the end, its safe to say that Youtube has no respect at all of you, with auto-flagging videos for censorship, they barely know about FTC and COPPA, they'll punishing your for your future video that you'll upload and worst of all, i think they're too desperate to get their money back after being fined, which means that again, if you upload a mature content that we really need a General content, you'll get fined by Youtube themselves.
Which is a good reason that i pick Youtube's poor reputation as a Number 1 of the most controversial moment in final decade of 2010.
And most importantly to give before going back to the movie lists, il give a similar reference from WWE is:
I did not screw Youtube, Youtube Screws Youtube.
End of story and til next time...
For nearly 15 years, Youtube is no secret to be most visited and detestably the best site we always like going in there, watching videos and joking with. But sadly, everyone about Youtube is nothing but fell apart from its punishment.
Which in 2018, many groups filed multiple complaints at Federal Trade Commission about Youtube collecting data of children, which it was confirmed in September 2019 that Youtube had to fine the damage with over $170 million dollars. Because of this, Youtube had to make a new rule, but not the good kind.
For example from their new rule, if you upload a video as "For kids", you get NOTHING! No comments, no rating, no recommendation, no looking back on your history, no notification about the video and no monetization (which means you get no profit on your account). But if you make a video as "Not for kids", Youtube will automatically took notice on your video that it looks like a kid content that you get fined $42,000 per video. Otherwise if you have over million videos, thats about more than $4 Million! Im not exaggerating for the creators's while doing my own calculation for the future.
Because of this, the new rule (before it'll starts in early 2020) received a major criticisms that it'll easily ruins Youtubers's career that they'll either losing their home, their job or even going in jail. Because of this not only makes Youtubers concerned, but so does FTC as well. Which to be clarified, FTC are not involved of Youtube's changing rule, it was Youtube themselves for changing the rule that it hurts us. In fact, FTC opened a comment reception (to be positive of course) about the COPPA for changing after 20 years and even tell Youtube to including "General audience" rating. In fact Youtube sent their comment to verify at FTC if their new rule is helping (which i say otherwise, meaning that this "New Rule" isn't helping for the future).
Unfortunately, it seems that Youtube will never learn their lesson about our videos and criticisms, which we can all agree that Youtube is dying before 2020. They uploaded "Youtube Rewind 2020", which they're too desperate to stay positive, but the damage was already done, because we're pissed and concerned over Youtube's future plan and probably the final nail of the coffin is that Youtube was so desperate to stay positive by upgrading their guideline in order to automatically flag down the videos that are deemed "Harassment", one of them is one of my favorite Youtuber IdubbbzTV's video "Content Deputy", where he criticized over at Youtuber named "Leafyishere", who's infamous for bullying at innocent users with mental issues like Autism, eating addiction, retardation and few others. Which instead of punishing Leafy, Youtube just straight up punishing innocent user like Idubbbz for quote-on-quote "Harassment". This is just nothing but a blatant Censorship in their desperation to stay positive in the community, its like Youtube treats you like Shit!
In the end, its safe to say that Youtube has no respect at all of you, with auto-flagging videos for censorship, they barely know about FTC and COPPA, they'll punishing your for your future video that you'll upload and worst of all, i think they're too desperate to get their money back after being fined, which means that again, if you upload a mature content that we really need a General content, you'll get fined by Youtube themselves.
Which is a good reason that i pick Youtube's poor reputation as a Number 1 of the most controversial moment in final decade of 2010.
And most importantly to give before going back to the movie lists, il give a similar reference from WWE is:
I did not screw Youtube, Youtube Screws Youtube.
