In a now-deleted video that has been re-uploaded by other channels, Trisha Paytas engaged in one of her famous meltdowns – this time, even more dramatically than usual, since she targeted beloved vlogger David Dobrik. Paytas accused her ex-boyfriend Jason Nash on February 3 of making "disgusting" jokes about the then-couple having a threesome with a then 20-year-old Tana Mongeau. She also criticized Dobrik for nallegedly being a bully behind the scenes. Paytas has a history of acting out for comedic relief, but fans have a hard time discerning between the YouTuber's reality and comedy, sometimes. Since her breakup with Nash, she has uploaded several videos about him, including one on July 2 titled " why my ex boyfriend is scared of me! " High-profile channels complained that YouTube's copyright claim system is being used to abuse creators. YouTube
