Alyssa Mercante has left Kotaku, supposedly layoffs happening now

Imagine the smell
 
She's filed a lawsuit against Smash JT and deliberately doxxed him in the process.

She's a grifter like he is, but it's incredibly retarded on his part to call this being doxed.

The lawsuit is public record that can be looked up by any American citizen.

Most competent content creators maintain a different PO Box through a service to avoid situations like being served at their home and getting their personal address on a court document.

Also by crying about it publicly he basically showed his ass to trolls and they might fuck with him. Just supremely retarded behavior all-round.

(I do want to read that lawsuit though, love reading drama filings like this and I'm sure I'll find entertainment there).

All I will say is, NY Anti-SLAPP laws is remarkably weak, so he might get really fucked up if this lawsuit proceeds, there's a non-zero chance his ass gets owned just through court fees alone.

Uhh, like Denton said, she redacted her address. Now why would she fear for her safety yet turn around and dox him?

She told the entire world that she left Kotaku and now she finally admits that she got fired, lol. Frivolous lawsuit, she will lose this.
 
Yes, but she redacted her own address but not his, very likely on purpose.

It's a dick move for sure, but my point still stands. I checked his site and he has no mailing address to forward things to, so her only "recourse" is to serve to his home address and that gives her a "reason". This was entirely preventable from his side.

Also it seems like he threw a big celebration when she got doxed, so from my POV, it's trash getting back at trash really. No one is covering themselves in glory here lol.

Reading the filing, her case seems weak on the whole, but the one thing she got him dead to rights on is the defamation part, where he knowingly told people that she sucked dicks for money and implied he had knowledge of it, he even got told to walk that specific statement back by someone on Twitter and yet still persisted like the retard he is. I think a lot of her stuff will get tossed out, but this one won't unless he can prove it.

If she gets NY state for jurisdiction then his ass is completely fucked no matter what the judge decides at the end, because Anti-SLAPP laws there are basically non-existent and won't protect him from incurring heavy legal costs while he makes his case, similar to the Asterios Kokkinos case if you ever heard of it (read here if you didn't).

The particular paragraph to pay attention to is this one:
Not that the complaint was submitted to the right courts, either. Despite most defendants being California residents (including Dick and Maddox, who live just a few miles apart), the suit is filed in New York, a venue appropriate only for, at best, two of the many defendants — Asterios and his employer. The main two reasons for Maddox to sue in New York may be on one hand the targeting of Asterios, since (as we'll see later on) Maddox is clearly trying to get him fired from his regular job; and, on the other hand, the plaintiffs are trying to avoid California's anti-SLAPP laws that would make it easy for the defendants to countersue and recover attorney's fees.

Seems like a very dumb idea to rant about it in a YT video as well. My man probably has zero clue about the actual law if I had to take a wild guess and when you don't, in my experience it's best to shut the fuck up and have a lawyer review and advise before you make a fool of yourself. Personal opinions on whether it's "silly" don't matter.
 
There's a peculiar obsession with this woman on Twitter. The animosity directed towards her only seems to motivate her to continue posting. If you disagree with her opinions, it's best to simply ignore her.

He's been trying hard to make money off her.

Like I don't recall the exact figure, but she's saying that his cumulative posts and videos about her is like +200, and if that's right, then he's really squeezing all the blood out of that stone.

Watch it turn out to be SmashJT's hand on her ass in that pic and they've been in cahoots all along.

You got a link to where he said she sucked dick for money? I mean she probably did considering she said she sucked dick to get into the industry.

It's in page 22 of the filing,. you can find it if you search around the web a little (or if the mods can help me, I can upload it here):

92. On or around March 30, 2024, Tarzia posted "'Whorification'? What'sthat? Like what @alyssa_merc does sucking dicks in her off time for money?" fromthe SmashJT Twitter Account.
93. On or about April 1, 2024, Tarzia published a video to the SmashJTYouTube Channel in which he stated, "Alyssa Mercante […] has since come forwardstating that she used to be a sex worker, sucking dicks for money before working atKotaku."3894. That same day, Tarzia repeated these claims on the SmashJT website.
95. Tarzia repeated these claims on the SmashJT Youtube Channel on May 1, 2024, and May 3, 2024

When you think about it, "sucking dick for money" and "sucking dick to get into the industry" are two separate things (both are gross, but one is prostitution, and she's denying that she ever said that).. This is where he fucked up badly IMO.

I thought you would have links since you seem to be kept up so well with this. My searching skills suck. I didn't know about this cunt until like a month or so ago.

Onlyfans must be really bad for her since she is suing for money.

Some things are not linked in the document (presumably because he deleted them?).

I can upload a link to the filing pdf on like mediafire or something but I have an errand I have to run 1st. It's honestly a fun read because there's some nonsensical stuff in the complaint (wtf is stochastic terrorism? Rofl)

Oh nah, i thought there would be tweets on it. Yeah the complaints are dumb.

Both are prostitution.
 
Serious question here- why is he a grifter if he actually believes in what he is saying? Can no one have these beliefs without being a "grifter"?
Because he doesn't (and so do most Youtubers btw, never seen an honest one).

No one makes dozens of videos about the same topic unless there's something in it for him. At some point you get bored and run out of things to say about it.

"Grifter" is a term that gets tossed around pretty casually now. "Grifter" really means a con man, a swindler - someone who does not believe in what he/she is selling and is just spinning a yarn in order to make money. Their sole purpose, their only motive, is to sucker people out of money.

But that doesn't describe JT (or some of the other anti-woke Youtubers who get labelled as "grifters") because - in addition to the obvious monetary incentive - they are also motivated by a genuine concern about the issues they're addressing. A grifter is only motivated by money. JT et al are motivated by money, to be sure, but they also believe in pushing back on the woke stuff in gaming. So they don't really fit the definition of grifter.

That's not to deny they are following the money - like most Youtubers, they put out content that is designed to get clicks and will often use misleading or exaggerated headlines, and they will feed their audience red meat they know their audience wants. They know what videos get the clicks, and they keep on churning out more of it, because they get money for it. But if that's all "grifter" meant, nearly everyone on Youtube would be a "grifter," because they all chase the clicks/money.

Smash JT set up a GiveSendGo page, the goal was to raise $25,000 and he smashed it in three hours.
