However, the YouTuber himself has claimed that he was being satirical over the entire issue.While Twitter user @_Cobradamus_ claimed that YouTube is justified in its actions, others aren't quite sure. Some feel that a failure to understand satire at this point is lame.Salted Pretzel@MisterSuperSalt@_Cobradamus_ @TheActMan_YT So I guess you just don't understand the concept of satire do you? It was never intended as a actual threat, he was mocking YouTubes unwillingness to take action against Quantum for doxxing him and his family by saying he would do the same to them (obviously a joke) lol83@_Cobradamus_ @TheActMan_YT So I guess you just don't understand the concept of satire do you?

However, YouTube has turned it into a serious affair by demonetizing the channel.Tom Huddleston@TomHuddleston5@PashskiRusso @MisterSuperSalt @_Cobradamus_ @TheActMan_YT How can anyone ever take this as serious, and not obvious satire.

He's not even threatening anyone specifically. Also why does he get demonetized and everything about him stomped into the ground and Quantum is fine? It's sketchy.@_Cobradamus_ @TheActMan_YT Read the tweets he referred to it's so clearly Irony. He's not even threatening anyone specifically.
