I assume you’re implying that John’s problem is that he’s constantly called out for shitty behavior by the groups listed. I think everyone understand’s John’s problem, they just think he’s wrong.

The original scene: https://www.tiktok.com/@tm.jy/video/7246655883751558426 (I could only find a TikTok link unfortunately).

For those who don’t want to click through, Tom is hit on the head by a woman (an actual racist caricature named Mammy Two Shoes) and starts to think he’s a mouse. He grows buck teeth (like a mouse or rat), starts eating cheese, and attempts to sleep on Jerry’s bed (as seen in the meme).

It’s important to recognize racist stereotypes, especially with how prevalent they were in old cartoons, but it’s also important to avoid jumping to conclusions and calling out problems that aren’t there.

Even if some of the information is outdated, although I believe it’s all still valid, the main points / TL;DR are absolutely relevant. It’s unlikely that the main bureaus will change, and although the exact steps for freezing may change over time, the emphasis on freezing is important.

There are actually more than 3 providers and you should put a freeze on everything you can. You only need unfrozen credit for applying for new lines of credit (loans, credit cards, etc), and unfreezing is a quick process (15 minutes or so).

Here’s a pretty comprehensive guide for protecting yourself: https://old.reddit.com/r/IdentityTheft/comments/uvv3ij/psa_freezing_your_three_main_credit_reports_is/

It’s better to take these steps before you get your identity stolen rather than after. These steps can prevent your leaked information from being used against you.

Good guess. That appears to be a character by Dross named Onyx, who is male.

“Tap” is being used as a noun here. It took me a bit to get it.

To add context, here is a broad count of Karl’s video topics over the past year (going back to May 29th):

Celebrate: 8 (5.83 million views)

Bash: 13 (18.5 million views)

Billy (all negative): 12 (8.5 million views)

He’s definitely leaned more into the Billy drama / exposing cheaters & fakers over the past year. People seem a lot more interested in the “expose” videos, so unfortunately it makes sense for him to make more of those.
