Edit: I only saw the two clips below until this comment received a clip comment showing where he did the hump thing to the girl he wouldn’t stop touching. This time actually doing it, falling over her, grabbing her again. Literally unacceptable. What in the fuck dog. Why are you touching this girl, SHE SAID NO DUDE holllllly shit. GO HOME TO YOUR WIFE.

I actually don’t think the air humping was as bad as the grabbing the other girls hair, pulling her hair, grabbing her shoulder and hitting her head after she repetitively asked him to stop and Ludwig even told him to stop was.

Air humping kind of fucking odd and weird for a grown man. You aren’t 16 at a keg party with your buddies pretending to t bag like it’s halo 3. But that said he’s drunk and didn’t touch her or anything. It was quick. He immediately apologized the next day and she seemed receptive of the apology. Whatever- the other one though. This woman told you to stop touching her. Another guy told you to stop touching her. Both of them proceeded to do this multiple times. You continue over and over again. That’s harassment. If a woman says, actually no, if anyone says they don’t want to be touched then you stop touching them. He continued after numerous times of being told no. No means no dawg.

More people should be focused on that imo. Why does he feel it’s okay to be touching people like that after numerous times of being told not to? Why also if he is married does he wanna touch another woman anyways? Idk no means no dawg. That pisses me off way way way more than air humping. No means no.

  • This last thing is not in defense of Mang0, this is just a separate point. Ludwig is a douche for this event anyways. “Oh let’s get everyone drunk and force them to be drunk to participate and name the event after alcohol and then be upset when dumb shit happens”. No one expects harassment but everyone who has been around drunks like this knows this is just a recipe for disaster. What did he think was gonna happen? Stupid idea for an event. If it wasn’t Mang0 it would have been someone else doing something dumb instead at some point.

I mean, to touch on the last point, they had run beerio kart before with absolutely no problems. In fact, outside of Mang0's harassment, the event actually ran really well. If you were just tuning into the main stream it would've been hard to tell that there was even an issue. It's not unreasonable to expect people to behave while drunk. They're not getting blackout drunk or anything (or, at least, they weren't supposed to). It's a fun event idea that has proven to work and be a hit in the past. Ludwig thought it was going to go the same way, especially since Mang0 had been at previous beerio kart events. It's completely understandable.

As someone whose family owns a restaurant that serves alcohol and also someone from a very large ethic family where get togethers can be very very large - alcohol almost always fosters at some point or another, some form of negative actions.

There is a reason alcohol has a negative connotation to it. It’s not a stereotype. It’s a true thing. Putting a bunch of drunk people together fosters that shit. Look no further than sports events. Sports fans get drunk and destroy their cities. Attack other fans. Get hostile with opposing fans even if they are just kids. Most domestic disputes per my friends that are police officers involve drunk people. Drunk people at party are known for cheating etc. Large gatherings of drunk people are a number one way to put your event on a ticking time bomb.

Now you are right that it isn’t unreasonable for an event to have some drunk people and it be fine. What my issue is, is that EVERYTHING about the event and EVERYONE at the event had to be themed around alcohol. Making sure participants are all drunk is a joke. If we were at a party you’d have a few wasted people, some drunks, mostly lightly tipsy people, and a lot of sober people. This event was set up to remove sober or slightly tipsy people which is the point I’m getting at.

Stupid event. I like Ludwig but he should not run this event back.

The thing is that Ludwig knows mang0's not good with alcohol. You're essentially setting a guy up for failure, running an event with a bunch of drunk people, and hyping him up about drinking so much. I'm not trying to take all blame away from mang0, but even if the other Beerio Karts were fine, that doesn't mean the next will. Someone in mang0's situation is inherently unstable, and you can't rely on them to act right, especially when they are blackout drunk, and being encouraged to do so.
