Logan Paul’s response video hints at further family dysfunction
YouTuber Logan Paul uploaded a response video to Shane Dawson’s docuseries, which entertained the probability that both Paul brothers could be sociopaths.
Logan defended his credibility in his response, and explained the difference between sociopaths and psychopaths – terms that Dawson appeared to use synonymously in his series.
However, Paul likewise hinted at further discord in his family, and claimed that he didn’t even like his own brother.
“I get that not everyone likes my brother,” Paul said. “Me included. I mean, the Paul family is currently surrounded by controversy – a fault of our own.”
Paul went on to further detail their relationship, but backtracked on his previous statement, instead claiming that he ‘loved’ Jake, but doesn’t speak to him as much as he feels he ought to.
“As much as I love Jake, we don’t talk like normal brothers do,” he admitted. “Our family is a bit, uh… cuckoo, if you couldn’t tell.”
Paul’s comments follow H3H3’s Ethan Klein’s podcast, where the YouTuber divulged a private conversation he had with Jake Paul that revealed the toxic nature of the brothers’ relationship.
“‘Honestly, it’s really bad,” Klein recalled Jake saying. “‘We honestly really hate each other.’”
Paul family patriarch Greg Paul has likewise been in the news for a controversy surrounding his possible involvement with underage girls. While Greg has vehemently denied the claims, hackers continue to threaten more leaks of potentially sensitive material.
The next episode in Dawson’s series will likely address the family’s dynamics, as hinted at by its title, ‘Understanding the Family.’
