Eddie posted some of items on instagram and he Looks like offended ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He’s being sarcastic trying to make a point. His videos are awesome but I didn’t need to see them to know what Demian Mia’s game is all about. I’ve been disecting his game for many years.
What is this whiney crybaby shit?? Some internet troll loser, regardless that he is educated in BJJ, made a long ass pity-party video to get support from other internet losers and turn them away from 10th Planet? Going on about his "Victimhood"??
I train at Burbank and consider Karen a friend so of course I would defend her... but I don't even need to. This guys pathetic ego alone makes me sick. The fact that he thinks anyone would want his shitty cheap GMO cotton T-shirt is some real dark comedy gold!
Both Karen (in this tiny instance) and this dude are CLEARLY operating under [or is a complete slave to in Scouts case] famine thinking which anyone should know is toxic for everybody including yourself. It seems like Karen quickly moved on though while this guy continued to seethe and wallow in bullshit.
I am not positive, but I think BJJ Scout had a great deal of his/her uploaded material wiped off the internet and I think much of it was lost forever so I also think he/she takes it as more than a slight to have that material fucked with, but hopefully none of this escalates because I am personally a fan of BJJ Scout's uploads.
FEAR OF LOSS
Delving further into this psychological mess... this guy is clearly power-tripping off of the miniscule 10,000 followers or whatever that he has. He's acting out of absolute desperation to not lose this minimal amount of power. (which is bordering on insane in my opinion, at least major ignorance)
I think FEAR OF LOSS is the most powerful motivator for your average modern human. Loss of life, love, material wealth, adoration, POWER... obviously fear of death (loss of life) is the biggest one. This guy however is clearly a mess when it comes to losing even a small fraction of this shitty "empire" he has built on the internet.
90% of the time one human is being shitty to another... FEAR OF LOSS is the culprit. Start recognizing this because it is fascinating and might help you become better at avoiding these types of scuffles.
Like I said this is all regardless of his BJJ prowess. I would never criticize his education in BJJ.
...another thing. If you are going to be so butt-hurt about having your videos taken down... maybe you should be directing traffic to YOUR OWN WEBSITE instead of piggybacking off of even greater internet wizards who created Youtube, Facebook, etc.
The more I think about this guy the more he seems like a two-year-old having a tantrum.
I am not going to pretend to know one's character, but it just looked like some petty trivial trolling to me.
part 2, peace & love

I think you're too close to the situation to actually make a fair judgement on the entire situation, your bias and loyalty towards your instructor is clouding your judgement (and understandably so). Because in all honesty, a lot of what you are saying applies to Karen just as much, if not even more so, in this situation. She was the one that initially started complaining about her property (the video from the glover seminar); which was already a public entity that was made available on youtube (again referring to your post about if you are being butt-hurt about your material it should be on your own website, which her's was not)
I think another psychological concept you should try to focus on is Self-Reflective Awareness, which is actually considered the hardest concept to truly grasp and in theory is impossible to truly master (It's a catch 22 type of situation, if you truly have mastered SRA, then your mastery would actually point out your flaws in your understanding preventing you from thinking that you have actually mastered it; totally not relevant to this discussion, but it's a theory that I find interesting). I find SRA to be a super interesting concept, because it's endless, you can always evaluate and nit pick yourself, you can find the weakness in your own armor and fix them, SRA makes the whole world better whereas other psychological concepts are really just putting other people down for their own flaws.
This is precisely the case. BJJ Scout repeatedly had to deal with his channel removed from YouTube because of fair use of UFC footage in his studies. For anybody who doesn't follow him, his work has been invaluable to the BJJ community, including his study of Boogey and Geo's use of the Japanese Necktie. I think the point he was making in his video is that we are all in this together because the major platforms will default to the side of corporations over everyday users no matter what. So, flagging each other is not only counterproductive, it insults people like BJJ Scout who have released an immense amount of valuable content for little or no compensation.
