UnsleevedMedia (powerword Jeremy Hambly) is a Magic The Gathering vlogger and YouTube wannabe who fancies himself a pretty hardcore dude and slayer of thots. In late 2017, Jeremy found himself in a controversy he soon realized he was ill-equipped to handle.
Thot Stomper
Not unlike a lot of his compatriots in the collectible card game scene, Jeremy had strong opinions on those he deemed illegitimate strong-arming their way into geeky nerd culture, and used his quick wit to put these wanna-bes in check. The timing could not be more perfect for Jeremy, as the rousing success of Gamergate had emboldened him into trying his hand at some Meme Magic and dishing out crazy bants against his adversaries on both YouTube and Twitter.
Jeremy had not realized, however, was that most people who know what the fuck they're doing do not go full blown epic ween in public, with their full names, on their "legitimate accounts", in arenas they consider their "business". His super spicy banter had caught the attention of too many higher ups of the Magic the Gathering business heads, and they promptly issued Jeremy a warning for this shenanigans. The event had caught the attention of some of the less than respected internet news outlets, particularly Polygon and Kotaku, and knowing the reputation of these outlets, Jeremy was confident he could turn the embarrassment into a win by segueing the unflattering spotlight into an attack on card gamers and other fine people who bravely refused to bend the knee to the neon-haired tyrants.
What Jeremy failed to take into account is that GamerGaters unleashed their righteous sperg-fury in wave after wave of nameless, faceless accounts. With about as much self-awareness as someone might expect from a professional toy unboxer, it hadn't dawned on Hambly that keeping a nice, easily accessible trail of evidence to his shitposting available to anyone willing to look for it. People like Wizards of the Coast, who took one look at the spastic tantrums he had made a point to do as publicly as possible, on a Twitter account with his fat face attached, and made the obvious decision that this person didn't need to be associated with their children's toys.
"SHOW ME THE RECEIPTS!"
Receiving word of his ban, Jeremy went into defensive mode, demanding to see the evidence used against him to render the decision. WotC complied, to which Hambly took to his YouTube channel to demonstrate that his punishment was an unfair screw job against him.
lmao what are you doing son Previous Video | Next Video |
In a legendary display of obliviousness, Jeremy takes to the public and shows everyone how he routinely made oven jokes and cheeky comments about bringing the comedy to his internet enemies in meatspace. Hilarious, but something the old boy really should not have been doing, in public, on accounts he was trying to tie to his "brand", for months on end. In attempting to defend himself, Jeremy displayed to any and every reasonable human being that a fat, shrieking neckbeard raging about Jews and women would be a liability to their brand. Indeed, Jeremy seemed to recognize this himself, as his entire defense quickly devolves into I totally wasn't being serious and claiming that bashing him for his own chimpouts was in and of itself a form of harassment. Nothing worked, and Jeremy had his Wizards of the Coast DCI number banned for life, and some of his digital cards confiscated from an online profile, an action that enraged him into attempting a full scale war on the company.
"A GamerGate Style Event"
Convinced that a terms of service agreement was a dead meme (note: this is verbatim wording; Jeremy actually says that ToS agreements are not enforceable because they are "dead memes"). Not realizing this is the exact reason why trolls use burner accounts and fake names online, Jeremy gets the bright idea to try and start a fullblown boycott of Hasbro, publishers of the MtG card game. His reasoning is sound; an all out consumer revolt as the holiday spending season approached would surely send the company into a panic, and not wanting to suffer a financial downfall, would surely release a statement in favor of Jeremy and reverse his ban and restoring his content.
He was not joking. Jeremy was completely convinced he had the makings of a full scale internet riot at his disposal and was ready and willing to unleash it if his demands were not satisfied.
—Unsleeved Media, grossly exaggerating his influence |
No. Really. He actually thought he had the making of a serious news story on his hands.
—NO, REALLY GUYS... |
In his battle cry video, Jeremy, out loud, several times, screams about "normies" and how he intends to use 25,000 gamers to boycot Hasbro during the most important business month of the year. Hambly, with 100% sincerity, demands his audience make their voice heard, because this injustice was "the kind of things news outlets will pick up!". His weapon of choice in this most important battle was a Change.com link.
He's completely fucking serious Previous Video | Next Video |
Fizzle and Burn
Problems arose immediately with Jeremys grand revolt. The biggest of which being his complete inability to pitch this as anything but an ego trip over his punishment. He attempts to take the Sargon of Akkad method of trying to convince would-be foot soldiers into doing battle against corporate normies and social justice warriors, who will turn on you next! Considering that it took GamerGate at least a year before it ran out of steam, the fact that Jeremy needs to plead with his viewership -who presumably already side with him- that it's important they help him out regardless of personal feelings right from the gate set off red flags.
As demoralizing as it must have been to see he had none of the grassroots support needed to make a spergout work well enough to put CEOs on notice, the ability of bringing a full fledged court case as a result of the action seemed to be dismissed as quickly as it was raised.

Unsleeved Becomes Unhinged
A full week and no Fox News appearances, Jeremy began to lose his already tenuous grasp on the reality of the situation he found himself in. His grand Gamergate sequel hadn't gained the traction he had promised in his declaration video, and far from the sympathetic ear of the mainstream right leaning news, Jeremy was forced to beg for scraps of acknowledgement from the uninterested ear of more alternative outlets. The attempt was as successful as his grab at the mainstream, and the lack of success weighed heavily on the poor in light of his grand ambitions. To compensate, Jeremy took on the new method; concluding the best way to stick it to a childrens card game manufacturer for giving you the boot is to act like an erratic madman publicly.
The gambit worked! As demonstrated by the fact that his thousands+ boycott is so busy bringing Wizards to their knees, that few of his "official" tweets can break 30 likes.
