MessYourself quit YouTube and co-founded what looks like a pay-to-join wellness cult

If you grew up watching Brandon you know the story. 12 years, nearly 7 million subscribers, 3 billion views, channel gets demonetised, he posts about it, everyone sympathises, rage-deletes everything. Fair enough honestly, YouTube did him dirty.

But now he's co-founder of something called PeaceOS Global Movement. His dad, who goes by "Lord Jason Temasfieldt" (a title that exists nowhere outside their own website) is the Founder and President.

Go look at the site. Tiered membership with titles like "Global Peace Ambassador" and "Peace Country Director", a literal Global Peace Passport with a QR code on it, donation tiers up to $250 with zero explanation of where it goes, and language that reads like someone fed a Scientology brochure into ChatGPT.

What actually gets me is the pattern. He positioned himself as a victim, people felt for him, and now all that goodwill is being used to give this thing credibility. The fans signing up won't be people who researched it. They'll be people who felt sorry for him and wanted to support him. That's exactly who these things are built to catch.

It's just a shame really. Guy had every right to be angry at YouTube. Of all the things to do next, he built this.
