Atheists Expose TheAmazingAtheist

Atheists Expose TheAmazingAtheist

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
If it seems like I'm uncomfortable making this video,
that's because I am, because it's weird to talk about this.
But let's talk about it. I'll start off by saying this.
I'm sure it will become a point of joking or contention or
whatever when people inevitably comment on this video or review
it or whatever. Embarrassingly enough, I used to
be a fan of the Amazing Atheist,TJ.

(00:21):
Kirk. But more than that, I was
somebody that, after talking to him for a while, TJ would refer
to as a good friend who he respected.
If you're currently a fan of TJ and you've been watching his
content for a while and you're not inclined to believe anything
negative said about him, I wouldjust ask that you keep an open

(00:42):
mind and watch this video in full and open yourself up to the
possibility that maybe this guy did something that needs to be
addressed. I don't know.
He's kind of primed his audienceto, you know, disregard any of
that. Just watch the video in full.
Look at the other people who've made videos about this and know
that it's not just some, you know, somebody going crazy or

(01:07):
some weird shit or whatever. You know, whatever is being used
to dismiss what people are saying, 'cause I know it's not
just me and it's not just a few other people.
There's a lot of people these days saying this and I will put
links to their videos below so you can go check those out.
I had watched T JS content pretty consistently since I was
about 12 years old, I know, and I kept up with his main channel

(01:31):
videos as well as the multiple podcasts that he was a part of
for about 15 years. I watched a lot of crap from TJ,
that's for sure. I stopped watching his content
over a year ago, at which time Ialso stopped talking to him, as
I've been talking to him pretty consistently for several years.
I went back through our DMS to like grab stuff for this video

(01:53):
and it, it goes on and on. A lot of it's just bullshit.
It was kind of surprising how much the two of us had chatted
over the years, and as a younger, more stupid and
impressionable person, you know,it seemed cool to me.
Like wow there's this YouTuber with a million subscribers who's
talking to me and nobody. Which is pretty hilarious and
sad looking back considering that it was TJ Kirk.
So cringe saying this right now.Like I want to kill myself

(02:16):
saying this. And since I watched him for so
long my brain kind of made excuses as to why I was still
watching the slop even though I know he'd said really fucked up
things. It's almost like my brain kind
of like post POC justified it and kind of try to grandfather
it into my later life. Almost like how marketing that
targeted you as a kid can continue to guide your decision

(02:38):
and habits later in life unless you consciously acknowledge the
conditioning and try to break the habit.
Which in my case here was watching a smelly antisocial
neckbeard rant and rave into a camera for over a decade.
It's really uncomfortable to think about how much of my early
personality as a teenager may have been shaped by this guy.

(03:02):
It's honestly kind of repulsive.Unfortunately, he was the reason
that I lost faith as a kid. I mean, like, I don't, you know?
No regrets there, but it's sad that it had to be TJ, right?
Anyways, let's get down to business.
A few years ago, a friend sent me some information about TJ
after seeing me interact with a post of his on Twitter.

(03:24):
I would interact with him prettyregularly on Twitter, you know,
just jokes back and forth tweets.
This friend had told me that he used to be a fan of TJ when he
was a kid, but after taking one of T JS books to school, he got
a talking to from a concerned teacher due to passages in the
book like this and this. At the time, I was kind of

(03:48):
skeptical and as I'm sure there are plenty of people watching
this right now, you know, if youreally are in denial, like
that's that's that's the thing with this type of like, I don't
I don't know if you'd call it Stan culture or what.
I don't know if I'd say I was necessarily atj Stan, but I was
definitely biased as somebody who was talking to him and he

(04:08):
was like, Oh, yeah, we're friends, you know, back and
forth. You know, I was skeptical
looking at these screenshots to just say, oh, Yep, T JS a
pedophile. And although I kind of was like,
oh shit, I think, you know, if you have somebody who you enjoy
their content like this, you almost don't want it to be true.

(04:31):
But that that kind of like denial where you're like, God,
fuck this, this guy really a pedophile or whatever.
That can only hold up for so long, especially when there's no
defense for a lot of what is being said.
And we'll go further and further'cause that's not it.

(04:52):
We got more screenshots, but also, like, it was just very
uncomfortable to think about considering that TJ had become
like a friend. You know, I did consider him a
friend. I believed him, probably
unwisely, when he said that I was a friend.
But, you know, if you're friendswith somebody, it's like, fuck,
you know, you don't want to admit that that person might be
a pedophile, but you have to take that shit seriously, right?

(05:16):
So over time, this friend would send me more screenshots, would
find more screenshots of things TJ had said, things TJ had
written, and eventually sent me a link to something that TJ had
said and put on YouTube. And also, not just that, but he
doubled down on it by either, I don't know which one was first,

(05:38):
the video or this passage that he put in the book.
Well, I'll show it here and herein a second so you can see.
And on top of all of that stuff,there's all of this.

(06:05):
And I think one of the most important things, before we get
too ahead of ourselves, is that there is actually proof publicly
that TJ sent pornographic material to a minor.
I'm going to show the screenshots here.
So these are Twitter screenshotsof somebody by the name of
Sapphire Blue tweeting at Chelsea.

(06:25):
TJ's partner, one of T JS partners at Chelsea.
Why is TJ being a creeper in my DMS?
As you can see TJS sending this person.
Well I'm going to have to censorthis for YouTube but it's
basically spanking porn and thencannibalistic porn of a human
being stuffed like a Turkey to be eaten.

(06:48):
Here's the response where TJ double S down on it and Chelsea
says sorry he does that I'll have to tighten his collar.
TJ just double s down by postingmore spanking porn basically
saying like you know fuck you this is who I am.
And here we have a tweet from around the time from the person
who posted this stuff and I'm 18since the third.

(07:11):
Holy fuck. You can go check the dates on
those. We have evidence of TJ sending
pornographic material to a minor.
Here's a chat log from an old blog, TV, live stream, or
whatever. The blog, talk radio, whatever
that stupid shit was called. The Amazing Atheist in the chat

(07:31):
says. When I was 16 I dated a 32 year
old. Then as a 23 year old I dated a
14 year old briefly. So that's about it.
And then there's another follow up here.
I felt an emotional bond with her pussy.
Sorry, I'm a sociopath, useless in the ways of love.

(07:51):
Now since then, TJ has actually admitted that yes, he did write
this, but his his excuses. Are you ready for it?
He was trolling. I'm sorry, but I don't buy that.
So here we have another screenshot.
This is a forum post from the Manson USA forums.
This has been going around Pete.This is a Wayback Machine

(08:14):
screenshot. An archive of this from October
14th, 2007. I believe that's when this was
screenshot on the way back machine, not when the original
post was made. It looks like that was made
January 18th, 2002. Taroja.
I'm like, you know, that's TJ. Anybody anybody who knows
anything about old school TJ knows that he went by Taroja

(08:37):
trying to hide his name back in the day.
He says. I agree with all that.
Having pedophilic attractions doesn't mean you automatically
go out and start. OK.
Yeah, I, I don't really want to read the rest of this.
I'm just going to put it on the screen.
You guys can read this. Extreme pedophilic fantasies.

(08:58):
Pedophilia is unfairly persecuted in today's society.
I also think that the age of sexual consent should be lowered
to 12 or 13. Keep that in mind. 12 or 13.
So TJ says pedophilia is unfairly persecuted.
He had pedophilic fantasies and he thinks the age of consent
should be lowered to 12 or 13. I showed some of these a minute

(09:19):
ago, but I want to go over thesescreenshots because plenty of
people, I I've heard and seen people because other people have
made videos about this. I've heard and seen people make
excuses for the stuff that TJ has written here.
And I just want to go over this quickly.
So this first let's go from let's go in order of like things

(09:39):
that TJ might try and defend on,two things that become less and
less defensible. So let's look at this screenshot
here from T JS writing. I'm going to put the reference
to where I found this and the link below page number and
whatnot on the screen. When I post these, I imagine
myself in an old atheist old atheist home.

(10:00):
OK, sitting in my rocking chair being blown by holographic
teenagers while robot nurses pump applesauce down my throat.
Blown by holographic teenagers. Now I know a lot of TJ
sycophants out there must. Oh, but Sir, teenager could mean
an 18 or a 19 year old. So let's continue.

(10:24):
Teen girls are annoying because they go out into public dressed
like sluts and then if you look at their massive titties there
is a segment of our society thatwill happily declare you a
pedophile for blah blah blah blah blah.
No point me reading it. TJ decided to read it himself
and put it in a fucking video. So here you go.
Teenage girls are pretty annoying.
They're always giggling maniac. It's shit that isn't even

(10:45):
vaguely fucking funny. Not to mention they dress so
slutty and you're not supposed to look at them.
There's a segment in society that if you look at those giant
luscious teenage breasts will say oh you're a pervert and a
pedophile and you're ogling children.
Bullshit. Children do not have D cup tits
and they don't have big lusciousbouncy asses crammed into

(11:09):
expensive designer jeans. That's not a child.
OK, Teenage boy. These are annoying.
And another problem with them isthey don't tap that teenage girl
ass. Well, I mean, some of them do,
but most of them are too fuckingshy and nervous and I don't
know, man. Oh, this.
She's that enemy. What the fuck ever.
All right, go tap that ass whileyou still can.

(11:31):
I'm not going to be able to tap that ass, because if I do, I'll
have Officer Friendly breathing down my neck.
Oh, I like to look at teenage girls.
Huh. Well, in prison you're the
teenage girl fucking cops. All right, all right, so I know
right now a lot of TJ fans are scrambling to make excuses.

(11:53):
Oh, well, he said that, you knowthat's not a child, therefore he
doesn't think it's a child, therefore it's a blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah. Wrong.
Here you go. Boom.
Shut the fuck up. Read what it says, Read what it
says, read what the fucking thing says that TJ wrote in the
fucking book. Who are you going to believe,

(12:19):
TJTJ or TJ? He's telling you what he
believes he wants. OK, I got to be careful here
because I don't want to get sued.
This guy is very litigious. I don't think an international
lawsuit is something he's going to pursue.
I am Canadian, but who knows, Who knows what things behind the
scenes he's going to try and do to try and fuck me over or

(12:41):
assassinate my character or whatever.
So as I mentioned, I was friendswith TJ and all of this kind of
caused me to just go, well, I kind of can't be friends with TJ
anymore. I can't watch DFFI, can't.
I can't interact with any of this shit.
I'm completely disconnecting. But before I was willing to

(13:04):
completely disconnect, I was like, I got to, I got to talk to
this guy. I got to confront this guy or
whatever. So I knew I had to confront this
guy and I was talking in DMS with him for a while.
So I'm like, fuck it, I'll just send him some of this stuff and
be like, what the fuck is this? So let's go over the DMS that I
had with TJ. So I sent him the teens are

(13:24):
Idiots video because it's indisputably him saying all this
shit or at least some of it. And I said what's going on here
man? TJ says what do you mean?
And I was trying to, you know, do AI was trying to lead him
into it kind of soft. So I said this isn't a gotcha or
anything. What the fuck is going on with
you saying all this pedo stuff? People are passing this around

(13:46):
right now. It's kind of damning.
Then TJ fucking as if he's blownaway says the teens are idiots
video as pedo stuff. What have you gone bonkers or
did you mean to link something else?
I said have you re watched it recently?
He says no, I haven't watched itsuper recently but it was a big
hit when it put out when I put it out and I recall 0% of anyone

(14:08):
calling it pedo shit. I says yeah, I remember watching
it when I was younger. I enjoyed the XR idiots videos
and that is true. Like I actually remembered
watching those videos when I waswhen I was a kid, but that
fucking shit had just slipped mymind because when I'd watched
that video I was probably like 12 years old.
I and then I say. I then go on to say you may

(14:30):
notice that a certain section ofthe video people are returning
to. I respond inside.
I don't remember the specific section though.
I guess I never picked up on it.He says oh man really?
It's now pedophilia to like big tits?
OK well I think you've officially lost the plot because
that to me seems insane. You were talking about 14 year
olds though. T JS response is to post a

(14:53):
fucking video from YouTube, a Monty Python skit or part of the
Holy Grail or whatever he says. Yeah, you know what changed the
level of prudishness in society?Because that video came out,
everyone heard those jokes and maybe they, they, they were
funny, or maybe they didn't, butno one thought it was pedophilic

(15:14):
and problematic. Seems like T JS kind of fucking
freaking out typing this. They.
They, they. They.
Why? Why?
Why? Why?
Why? Why?
Why you're getting nervous, man.To me it's like going back in
time and calling this Monty Python bit pedophilic because it
sexualizes girls who are canonically between 16 and 20.
Listen dude, I'm not married to Monty Python, I don't give a
fuck if they're pedophiles. Then that it is what it is.

(15:38):
He then goes on to say I think it's ludicrous to reply modern
sensibilities to a video that is13 years old.
Made an entirely different cultural climate that did not
itself make those objections. I guess if you are a pedophile

(16:00):
before 2015 or something then I guess it's OK.
I don't know what the fuck the logic here is supposed to be.
Is this a is this a good argument being made here?
Is this a good point? It doesn't seem like there, it
just seems like justification istrying to be made for this.
So I said to him, OK, I don't really care about a Monty Python
bit, That's not what I'm talkingabout here, and I don't think

(16:22):
it's entirely relevant. I was around that age in 2010
and I watched your videos then. So it's a bit disturbing that
you casually talk so sexually about minors.
There's been a bunch of instances of this that I've
brought to you before, and I trusted your explanations and I
can't lie, this bothers me. What I was referencing, there
was a couple of the screenshots that I'd initially been sent, a

(16:42):
couple of the ones that you may think, Oh yeah, you know, he
said teens, but, you know, kind of more vague shit, right.
I was at that instance before where I was like trying to
fucking justify it because you know, I'll be honest, I like I
was talking about before, you know, it was, it was frustrating

(17:03):
because I was like, fuck, this guy is like saying he's my
friend. I have watched his videos for so
long. Like I'm going to have to
fucking, I'm going to have to fucking do something soon.
So TJTJ then goes on to say I can't control your sensibilities
about it, but I have a few things I'd like to say if you're
OK with that. And at that point I'm like, I'm

(17:24):
just taking screenshots of this shit for later on.
So go ahead bro. Tone.
The tone of those XR Idiots videos is one of ridiculous
statements and comedic exaggerations.
I know that now. I'm a bit more serious with my
content now, but at the time I was much more about saying
outrageous and provocative things, and that series of
videos in particular were full of me saying things that were

(17:44):
obviously silly and contrary to what polite society would like.
I'm not buying this shit. I'm really not buying this shit
based on what I've seen. Based on what we've seen that TJ
has posted. Don't worry, this just gets even
more ridiculous upbringing. I was raised in the American
South where I saw my stepdad andall of his male friends getting
drunk and making inappropriate comments about the teenage girls

(18:06):
marching in local Mardi Gras raids.
My father made remarks to me numerous times when I was
growing up that he felt the age of consent should be 13, so this
conduct was more normalized for me than it might have been for
others. What the fuck does that have to
do with anything? Your daddy's a pedophile, so
it's okay for you to be a pedophile?

(18:26):
Oh sorry, my daddy's a pedophileso that's why I'm a pedophile.
Cultural evolution. When I put this video out, no
one made any hay out of those remarks.
That doesn't fucking matter. Everyone who saw it, even if
they did object to some aspect of it, didn't object to that bit
in particular. I think this shows the attitudes
at the time were different. I would never make those jokes
now because the discourse about these things has moved in a

(18:47):
more, in my view, prudish and uptight direction.
I personally don't find what I said offensive.
If I was honestly advocating formen to fuck teenagers then I'd
say I was wrong, but I don't think making some hyperbolic
remarks about it was wrong. Let's let's review some of the
stuff we've gone over already. And that was the last time I

(19:32):
spoke to TJI. Sent him one more message after
that that said I have a lot to say but I'm still collecting my
thoughts and forming a response.And I never responded.
And TJ never responded to that beyond, I don't know, like
thumbing up, adding a thumbs up emoji to that response I made
that little fucking. I have something to say.
Let me collect my thoughts. Yeah.

(19:54):
And by the way, if you guys don't believe me, here is a
video of me scrolling through myDMS on my computer if you want
to go ahead and believe that I made all this shit up then.
I don't think that it's at this point there's any point me
trying to convince you 'cause you're just a fucking cultist.

(20:17):
Recently, when Vosh got exposed as like a zoophile pedophile.
T JS immediate response, which kind of, you know, clarified and
confirmed all of them. I say like recent, but it was
like a year or something ago. Yeah.
T JS basic response to that was like, I wish I could show you
guys this bestiality lolly con shit on stream so that I can

(20:41):
show you that it's actually OK and there's nothing wrong with
it. It's like, OK dude, all right,
all right. All I can personally say is that
I stopped watching T JS content.I stopped watching DFFI
completely, cut myself off from all that, left the Patreon,
never looked back, never fuckinglooked back.

(21:04):
And I've wanted to make this video for a while, but I've been
worried about legal consequencespotentially, although I'm not
too worried about that now, but we'll see.
I guess. I was worried about, you know,
people being sent after me to harass me because there's like
thousands of people still stuck in this fucking cult of TJ, cult

(21:26):
of, you know, DFF, whatever the fuck you want to call it.
I actually had somebody try and contact me in the meantime
trying to get me back into like TJ server.
I think him and a bunch of otherpeople were trying to like do
some like damage control thing and like try and get me to
fucking be silent. And I was just like, Nope,

(21:47):
goodbye. I don't want anything to do with
that. Fuck off.
And I will mention Marshall Manson put out a video recently
which I would recommend you guysall go check out.
In Full disclosure, I will say that I'm friends with Marshall.
I've been friends with them for a while.
Long time viewers of this channel will know that me and

(22:08):
Marshall used to do some live streams together and I am
supportive of the video that he put out.
A lot of people out there are giving him shit for it.
All I can say is as somebody who's known Marshall personally
for a while, people are saying that he's gone crazy now because
he's become religious. I can tell you if somebody who

(22:30):
talks to Marshall and has talkedto him a decent amount in the
past, he's still the same guy. You know, he may be religious
now, but he's still pretty much the same guy.
He hasn't lost it. He's still Marshall.
And by the way, his name is not Marshall, it's Andrew.
It's weird saying Marshall at this point because like I just
don't, I don't even say that anymore, but that's how you guys

(22:51):
know him. So I'll say Marshall for now,
but yeah, he got a lot of shit people saying, you know, he lost
it. He's he's a Christian now and
he's just trying to attack TJ, blah, blah, blah.
Like, no, it's nonsense. These are all legitimate things
that are being brought up. And it's not just Marshall who's
brought this stuff up in the past.
I think somebody who's actually been on, I know DP in the past,

(23:12):
Teddy Rubskin, he made a video talking about this.
There's also a YouTube are I believe he's called June the
King. He made a video talking about
some of this stuff pretty recently.
DFF is not doing so good. They are crumbling in fact.
So I wouldn't be surprised if this is just another nail in the

(23:33):
coffin when it comes to the death of DFFI.
Don't know, maybe a lot of the people who are following that
stuff pretty closely are just going to dismiss all of this
and, you know, find a way to excuse it and then whatever.
I don't care at this point. I've said my piece.
Fuck TJ. And you know, I don't personally
have a problem with Paul and Scotty.
I don't really need to get into that 'cause my gripe here mainly

(23:55):
is with TJ and the things he's said and done.
But yeah, like, I don't know, I think that people around TJ
should take this opportunity to examine what he said and look
into it and maybe think about whether or not they want to be
publicly associated with him. Update.
I guess TJ no longer wants to bepublicly associated with himself

(24:16):
either because he's just changedthe name of his channel to Into
the Fray. The only time he ever changed
the name of his channel before in like what, 20 years of doing
YouTube was when he changed it from the Amazing Atheist to his
actual name. TJ Kirk failed rebrand, which he
switched back to the Amazing Atheist from.
But now he's just completely dropped it and he's trying to

(24:38):
call himself Into the Fray. I can't help but feel like this
is a response to Andrew making this video.
I think TJ is running scared. Like, to me, this is more than
anything just an admission of guilt.
ANYWAYS, fuck pedophiles, fuck sickos, fuck rapists, fuck rape
all mahomes, hate pedophiles, etcetera, etcetera and so on.

(25:00):
Remember people, if somebody youknow is credibly accused of
being a pedophile, investigate that shit.
And if you find out that they are a pedophile, or may very
well be a pedophile, you do whatyou need to do and you cut that
person off at the very fucking least.
No pedophiles going into 25. We ain't putting up with
pedophiles in 2025 anymore, OK? We're getting real with this

(25:22):
shit. It's getting real now.
