    Nairo is the largest streamer in the Super Smash Brothers Ultimate community, streaming to an audience of almost 300 thousand subscribers. He is one of the community's most revered and loved figures, as he's friends with nearly every other top player. He was formerly ranked 4th in the world as a competitive player before the COVID-19 pandemic. However, recently his name has been embroiled in controversy. This is because, in July 2020, Nairo was accused of having sexual contact with fellow player Captain Zack at CEO Dreamland 2017. At the time, Nairo was 20, and Zack was 15. Initially, Nairo would confess to the claims against him, only to recant his confession a few months later and come out with his side of the story denying Zack's allegations. After his statement, the community began to jump on Nairo's side and even got a hashtag trending number one in the world, campaigning for his return to the community. As a result, several tournaments and organizations would unban Nairo from their events. Many people would like to believe that the truth prevailed in this situation as the king, who was unjustly slandered, reclaimed his spot on the throne. However, this is all BS. Today, we uncover the truth behind these allegations and expose the corruption and nepotism within the community.

    i think salem should not still be banned, based upon the fact that what he did was less bad than what others in smash community have done, yet they're still fine but yet salem cant do anything anymore. Seems like community bias/unfairness. The punishment should fit the severity of the crime, but that's not how things are atm in many situations for many people.

      I want to honestly thank you for stating this. The most fucked up part of arguing for someone popular to be held accountable is that people underplay it because the guy arguing for this isn’t that big of a name. It legitimately brings a smile to my face seeing the guy who helped form the competitive scene as we all know it today say this.

This is something that I'm hearing quite a bit lately in the community, because many people have already cleared their name, and others just made their situations worse. I think that those who are actually clear, should be welcomed back and those who aren't should get kicked out.

      Hold on, i didn't know that Salem was banned!! Legit, what for? At most Salem was an idiot who was none the wiser, but ignorance shouldn't be that much of a punishable crime.
      "Seems like community bias/unfairness" I mean... considering the last i knew of him, he got into a beef with Leffen and "years of research" while Big Leff Ratio him to oblivion? no kidding, is yet another instance of Leffen using his big audience to change a narrative to his favor
      In the meantime, im glad you acknowladged it this, even if you don't have the same pull you'd have in the prime years, this is big.there are bigger culprits in this cesspool, ones that divert guilt to others.

    Not that i think nairo is innocent or anything but he has a very good legal reason to not release his information. It's a situation sometimes called the paradox of statutory rape where acknowledgement of one crime implies the other. Therefore both parties can be guilty of a different crime from the same event. Proving his rape case will incriminate himself for a statutory case. Both parties are quite literally better off not pursuing this any further.

    The basis for your argument is really wrong. Many times what people want in situations like these ones is closure, acceptance, and to continue on trying - trying! - to carry on a normal life as much as possible. If the arrangement was reached between the parties involved, and there are no criminal charges being levied by authorities, then it is very believable that those involved have agreed to settle the matter and move on with their lives. This much should be respected by outside parties regardless of the context or circumstances that surround the event.
    Now, whether that 'exonerates' anyone in the court of public opinion, that is a different matter altogether. But honestly this peanut gallery nonsense that is a mainstay of gossipers and drama chasers is pretty ridiculous and frankly gross.

      Why? There are many legal court documents that aren’t made public. We’re all nobodies - and the fact that you feel entitled to someone’s personal and private legal proceedings show how naive you are about the importance of human rights of privacy. Anytime you are accused or have to go to court, I demand you post those documents to the public. Thanks!

      @@tomb5511 I am well aware of that, but that's a general thing. I am speaking about this specific document in particular - in a case where it looked like a grown ass man flirted with a 15-year-old boy and fucked him. Said adult who receives support from a community of people who are just NOW beginning to find the context of what he was doing a little suspicious at the very least, after years. A case involving many big names and figureheads in this particular community. I don't care if you call it naïve, but I would like to be apart of this community and if they are going to ban someone for telling a bad joke or ban someone for creepy texts with a minor, but then Nairo comes along, I think a precedent should be set. And the only thing that would go against that, logically would be document that would, "Ultimately exonerate" him. I don't need to see the damn document, I don't care about Nairo. I would just like him to be fucking banned until he can prove otherwise, if he even cares enough. So, you're very welcome asshole.

      @@GSEleven Hm. Sorry for coming off rude. But I just dislike when “doing what’s right” is done the wrong way (such as persecution based on subjectivity). When you say you want him “banned until he can prove otherwise” is the same mentality of “guilty until proven innocent” - precisely the same logic anecdotally used when we accused women of being witches and they were guilty until they could prove they “weren’t a witch”. Salem witch trials. So regardless of how you and I feel- we must always favor “innocent until PROVEN guilty”. And if it can’t be PROVEN other than a bunch of people saying a bunch of things to contradict each other- then that shouldn’t be grounds for GUILT. Can we at least agree on that?

      @@tomb5511 We don't even disagree on this GENERALLY, and it's not even that you lack the fucking context to understand this. I genuinely don't know why this isn't clicking in your head sequentially. I can only assume it is because you're trying to view this in a broader scope and remain general rather than zooming into what is going on in the situation itself, which causes you to conflate banning Nairo from Smash events to the Salem witch trials. So allow me put this into perspective for you. This is not in any context similar to the Salem witch trials. Yeah, when false accusations are made, they can be viewed in that light. This is not one of those cases. If the accused party were stated to be a witch, if memory serves me right, they would be killed.
      Nairo will face no consequences from being banned, he isn't being jailed, he will still stream his content and have friends on his stream, he isn't losing any money. People in the Salem witch trials were fucking dying. And I get the point you are making isn't that they are 1:1, rather it is akin to that. But no. I still disagree. I just fucking told you the motive behind wanting to see the legal documentation that would exonerate him, and you view that as me saying he's guilty baselessly. People have been banned for less, people have even been arrested and jailed for less.
      Cinnpie is banned and rightfully so, however there is LESS evidence than her doing anything with Puppeh than there is with Nairo doing stuff with Zack. We literally took his word and banned her ass.
      ZeRo was banned, rightfully so, but yet again for doing LESS than Nairo, and he was accused of more than Nairo, but had been cleared on all of his accusations except the one, which despite there being a gap between the dates in the screenshots and when the actual conversations took place, there was STILL no incriminating evidence. And yet his ass got banned.
      Anti, literally wasn't his fault. But he should be banned for displaying he was unfit to be in a circumstance by enabling underage drinking and some other actions.
      Nairo, from the accounts of 4 different people had been feeding into the immature dynamic of Zack flirting with him. Even if jokingly? As a 20-year-old man at the time, I'm 19, that isn't something that's normal. I wouldn't flirt or cuddle with a middle schooler, that is the last thing I would joke about and it's genuinely disgusting. The only reason Nairo wouldn't be guilty of escalation, is if you somehow manage to believe that he has been getting blackmailed into feeding into that dynamic, the dynamic which has evidence of it being fed into - even unprompted in an instance by Nairo, from the start. And I'm not buying it.
      I get you saying if the Vic Mignogna situation or the Lui Caliber situation were akin to Salem witch trials, because the parties making the accusations had literally no evidence to substantiate their claims. They cried wolf, and people acted accordingly even when there was no evidence. Even with the Johnny Depp situation, same thing happened.
      Nairo, if absolved from accountability regarding sexual misconduct with a minor by the document ultimately changes little to nothing because he is still guilty of escalation. If TKBreezy and Dabuz can easily say no or express discontent for how those actions look, I don't see why Nairo couldn't.
      So then, you have his lawyer come out and explain how he has a document conjured by the 7 magic dragon balls stating how it could exonerate Nairo even with evidence to the contrary, and when so many people are pushing to get you banned and defaming you, you're not going to show it? Maybe he can't but again, it changes nothing. He should still be held accountable for finding it okay to cuddle with and flirt with a minor. By doing those things he expressed that, similar to Anti and MVD, that they shouldn't have been allowed in those situations because they don't have the capacity to do the right thing; they were unable to be held to the standards of a regular adult who wouldn't flirt with a child.

Cagt stated he couldn't remove people from the GBD unless they provided them with evidence contradicting their ban.

It appears horrible, it sounds horrible, it feels horrible.

    I used to support the movement back when the unbanning happened, because without the screenshots it was tough to debunk since there was a settlement and people who previously condemned him switched stances. Tech finding the incriminating tweets was enough conclusive evidence to realize it was not as one sided as Nairo made it seem. I do think some of the people who still support him haven't seen the screenshots just from the fact Tech is the one spreading them and a lot of people just dislike Tech so they don't engage.
    I engaged without some outside of tech threads and after seeing the screenshots they did start doubting Nairo, so it seems to be, as you said, a problem of mob mentality and following and trusting your favorite top players.

It just seems like the “this person is my friend” factor is the only factor on any of these cases. Both parties being absolutely merciless against the other guy and completely forgiving with their friend.

      People settle all the time. It is common to see that in a settlement both parties are not to release any legal documents outside of those approved by both parties in the settlement.
      Heck with plea deals (which is a form of settlement just on the criminal side), we find that not guilty people take them all the time often decades later. So i disagree with your statement that settlement = liable or guilty. Sometimes even if you are correct it is smarter to go for a settlement since 1. Evidence is usually not disclosed to the public and 2. Less headaches, emotionally and financially.

      Well and their attitudes.
      I remember that went it all went down, Nairo admitted it and ducked out and we never heard from him until he released his legal statement after going to therapy.
      In contrast, ZeRo then made not one, not two, but three documents explaining himself each time. The problem was that there was language with classic words and phrases that is attributed to classic deflection, gaslighting, and outright negated statments (ZeRo lied). So essentially, he dug his own grave even more when he was in a bad spot in the court of public opinion.
      Essentially Nairo played it smarter than ZeRo did. ZeRo burned a lot of goodwill before leaving and seeking legal counsel. While Nairo said he did it, ducked out of town, got therapy (paid by NRG, likely a contractual term), and found a good lawyer. What I also think helped Nairo was that Zack was immensely hated in community for his taunting, actions at EVO, his morally ambiguous relationship with Ally (and blackmailing Ally), and match-fixing (big nono in any competitive game or sport). Heck it was bad enough that Zack's friends testified against Zack's original testimony which meant that Zack's credibility went down the drain even more. I am not victim blaming here, but the fact is that the alleged victim here is no saint which likely contributed to the better public perception of Nairo than ZeRo.

Zero has pointed out in the past the notion that people were always more than happy to go after him instead of focusing on people who were more of a problem or actually deserving of that level of backlash, like oh I don't know, Nairo. I'm genuinely curious as to why people were more concerned with Zero than Nairo and why people choose to defend Nairo, even after just looking at everything the only thing that makes actual sense is Nairo being a word/set of words I likely can't use on CZcams because it'll likely hide my comment

      I think it is because ZeRo is simply less likable than Nairo. Remember that even before all the accusations, ZeRo attempted to play the villain, sort of what Leffen did. Unlike Leffen who can revel in his villain persona and sometimes plays it up in the Melee community. ZeRo didn't last as long and got burnt out, but because he didn't try to rehabilitate his image as well as Leffen tried, it comes off as ungenuine and he essentially "left" competitive. In contrast, Nairo came off as the guy who is likable, who wants to be friends with you and overall a kind guy. He also has some positive points of being the first to knock the pegs out of the heel, ZeRo. It comes down to PR.
      Additionally when all the accusations came out ZeRo, posted not one, not two, but three documents attempting to defend himself. And all those documents had the classic signs and language of a gaslighter, lies easily disproven by reputable members in and outside of the Smash community, and tons of deflections. It was only after ZeRo did all of his that he admitted it and stayed silent then proceeded to sue Jisu (frankly at the wrong time as the community had a semi-sympathetic tone towards her, funny enough the majority of Smash community would slowly turn against her during the Hax, who is her ex, drama) I think if his lawyers timed it better (granted they were pushing the statute of limitations here so, I can understand the rush). In contrast to Nairo, who dipped immediately and came out with a swinging statement from his lawyer who cited Nairo's therapist and three reputable Smash community members. It also helped Nairo rehabilitate his image slightly by having Zack exposed as a completely manipulative bastard by multiple members of the community, Zack's own friends testifying against Zack, banned for match-fixing and blackmail, and attempting to get together with other older guys when Zack was a minor.
      those are some of the reasons why there is a difference between the reactions of ZeRo and Nairo.

      Good point. But, in my opinion, ZeRo needs to be banned for the sake of PR.

And more people would probably not have heard how he's not a pedo from Tech, rather that they would think he is. I think Tech knows this, he said that the Katie thing is good grounds to keep him banned.
      (This is not important to my argument, but let's not forget that ZeRo's 1000% retired from tournaments, so he wouldn't go to any of them in the first place.)

Despite wether or not that’s the actual reason, I really don’t think the community has any right to complain considering it’s a possibility that makes a lot of sense.

    I'm not gonna lie this hurt to watch, but this needed to come out! Nairo is someone I love and support a great deal and when the whole allegations of 2020 came out I was heartbroken. I didn't want to believe it, but when Nairo's statement came out, I immediately accepted it as true, because I, as well as many if my friends wanted nairo back. Still over the past two years, I watched Techs videos about the Captain Zack and Zer0 case and they both left me with some unsure feelings, still what both provided was the truth. Still today, even after watching these videos, that dive into the truth of what happen a part of me wants to deny it, because of my blind faith in Nairo and just wanting things to back to how they were. It's shitty I know, but that's the power of influencing young audiences. I'm 18 now, and I've been enjoying the competitive scene since I was 14. I've never competed in tournaments, just watched them and saw top players be awesome. But yeah, Nairo dropped the ball so hard. Like why...even though I don't think he's truly a sick pedophile, just why would he put himself in these situations as the adult? It shows a lack of maturity and responsibility. Thus he should be banned.

      A lot of people don't understand why nairo would put himself in a situation like this, but there has been a lot of speculation about Nairo having some kind of autism which may explain why he reacted the way he did in this situation. But once again it's all based off speculation there is not real evidence that nairo actually has some kind of autism

      I understand how you feel it's happened to me and many others I wanted to think were innocent but weren't.
      Nairo may not be the monster people portrayed him to be but he sure isn't a saint is a real idiot to have put himself in that situation in the first place.
      All I've learned is to never put people on pedestals and to distance myself from content creators and stop seeing them as people I should up to and instead as people whom can entertain me for a little.

      The fact that you acknowledge it is already enough for me.
      If Nairo couldn't tell Zach no then he shouldn't be in a place where this can happen again.

      Everything u said rn is how i feel rn... It sucks seeing someone who u look up to risk their career and do this shit, i want to believe hes not a pedo but everything thats been shown to him has made me more heartbroken than it already has. I just wish he took accountability and not try to bury under the rug, it just makes it him look even worse.

    the amount of biases in the community from TO and other figure heads is insane to me. they didnt like zero and was hated by the community so they dont really care but nairo was loved by all so who gives a fuck. i guess its the way it goes.
