Tyler Oakley slams viral star Lohanthony for disturbing videos YouTube: Tyler Oakley LohanthonyViral star Lohanthony was known for being open about his sexuality online in a time where it wasn\u2019t so accepted. But in a disturbing turn of events, the star has returned to YouTube with a series of videos seemingly promoting conversion therapy, with Tyler Oakley making an entire video dedicated to the return. Anthony \u201cLohanthony\u201d Quintal became known on the internet for his zany personality, going viral with a video of him twirling his leg saying \u201ccalling all the basic b*tches.\u201d He gained a decent amount of traction on the video platform Vine as a younger teen. After a few years of relative silence, the now 21-year-old returned in late August, but not as the same Anthony people remembered him as. In his first video uploaded on August 18 entitled \u201cwhy Christ? My testimony to Jesus,\u201d he announced that he\u2019d been \u201cfeeling a shift in his life for a while\u201d and that \u201cJesus found him.\u201d i was watching a lohanthony vine compilation and i just can\u2019t believe he went from this to where he is now. pic.twitter.com\/LrEykjz8YG \u2014 gage ! has moved to @antihopefui (@moonhazes) August 22, 2020 In a later video entitled \u201cJesus delivers: surviving sexuality,\u201d Anthony goes into detail about his relationship with his sexuality now saying, \u201cit\u2019s no coincidence that through pursuing my same-sex attraction, I was also addicted to alcohol, I was also addicted to weed.\u201d The 40-minute long video that has garnered over 130,000 views now has more dislikes than it has likes, and a video of him reading some scriptures a week later has an even worse like to dislike ratio, the comments now disabled. (Warning: video discusses sensitive topics) https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RabRG9cYQ78 YouTuber and LGBTQ+ activist Tyler Oakley was compelled to make a whole video about the distressing subject matter on September 1, titled \u201cCalling All the Anti-Gay B*tches\u201d in reference to Anthony\u2019s viral video. \u201cI did not see Lohanthony denouncing being gay on my 2020 bingo card, but here we are,\u201d he said. \u201cLohanthony was one of the early super-gay, unapologetically himself influencers.\u201d Tyler described the situation as \u201ccomplicated\u201d and said that \u201cto equate all of same-sex attraction to sin, or something that needs to be withheld or repressed, is playing into the exact approach of anti-gay people.\u201d While he expressed that he would not usually give a situation like this air time, he explained that the existence of many US states which have yet to ban conversion therapy, and a vice-president who supports it means that it is \u201clife or death\u201d situation for LGBTQ+ kids across the country, and needs to be addressed. He does say that \u201chis heart breaks\u201d for the young star. Lohanthony has yet to respond to Tyler\u2019s comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
