In April, Nash Grier, the most followed user on vine, released the following video:

Grier took down the original Vine, but gay YouTuber Tyler Oakley re-posted it and wrote:

Call me and people like me, ‘fag’ all you want, but spreading false information about deadly diseases is next level. https://t.co/W6X9MUrgUK — Tyler Oakley (@tyleroakley) July 6, 2014
Grier has since apologized.

I find this ironic since this past week, the World Health Organization has basically agreed with Grier's original statement.

Nash's apology is probably a publicity cover for his upcoming movie with MTV and Dreamworks. An earlier 2012 tweet of his suggests that he is against gay marriage.

Some have suggested because his earlier video was posted in April, it was an April fool's joke. I think there is more to the story. It's interesting it's only just now surfacing as a scandal, and from one of his biggest competitors - an openly gay vlogger with million followers like Nash.
ROK has previously reported on Nash, when the 16-year-olds video saying what he liked in girls made him the target of a feminist witch-hunt:

I don't buy the apology, but the circumstances around this all seem off. You know you're looking at a weird story when the thing that makes the most sense is a 16-year-old yelling fag on the internet.

Except he's possibly uploaded a video of him kissing a guy to 'prove' he isn't homophobic. Hard to tell if it's a defense or a reaction.

Damn, hope he didn't get AIDS when he did that.

Article suggesting MTV and Dreamworks should drop him for his slur...

...written by none other than rival youtube star Tay Zonday (Chocolate Rain).
I'm noticing a pattern here.

Grier is a huge tool, but apparently he's now worth a shit load of money, so props for the hustle.
If I was a self-made millionaire at 17 I would quit giving a flying fuck too.
If that vid is fake, fucking props to whoever made it because it looks real as tits

Real. Read first post. He publicly apologized for it.

He has a very punchable face and I've seen some of his shit before.
Not hating on the dude, respect for him for doing what's needed to earn a load of cash, but it's a sad world we live in when people like this are promoted to the masses. There's a guy out here called Dapper Laughs, as equally untalented but persisted with the lame stuff and it's caught on.

I have no idea what he does and I've never heard of him before, but he has the
perfect name and the
perfect mug to be an internet celeb of today.
The name "
Nash Grier" is so perfect for its purposes that it's crazy!

To be fair both sexes can catch HIV. It may be more prevalent among gay men due to the rampant raw anal sex with multiple partners they practice. But straight people can catch it as well.
They best way to avoid it is to abstain from all sex. The second would be being in a monogamous relationship and using condoms. Third is obviously to use condoms with every partner.
Gay men may spread it more rampantly but it's not a "gay disease". We really need to break that association. It's old thinking and ignorant.

Parlay, the odds of a man catching HIV from a woman are
extremely small. And I mean, extremely. The transmission rates are tiny. People will try to tell you it "can" happen but that's basically PC propaganda. The truth is that it almost never does.
So for men, it pretty much
is a gay disease (you can throw in drug users I suppose). For women it's a different story.

Agreed. It isn't a gay disease... the HIV+ population also includes a significant number of current- and ex-prisoners, street prostitutes, and injecting drug users. It's time to re-criminalise sodomy.

The odds of getting HIV from vaginal intercourse with an HIV positive woman with no condom
are about one in 5000. If she's on her period or blood is involved somehow I imagine the risk goes up.

Before I read the whole thing correctly, I thought someone called this guy a fag. He has the textbook fagface.

So this kid is famous for his mug and name? I've seen plenty of good looking cutesy kids way ahead of this guy.

Holy shit - I think it might be a fake.
If you look closely you can see a phone reflection in the shot where he yells fag.
Could it be someone filmmed a screen and dubbed him?
The voice sounds different then his usual SoCal style. If it is... wow. That means his rivals are coming after him hard.
