I don’t think you can draw either conclusion confidently. Here’s an alternate explanation: his sister acknowledged that the money wasn’t donated, and told him that it would once they pick a charity, and he didn’t press on it until it got publicity. I haven’t reviewed every time he boosted his charity, but in the ones I did see, he said he “worked with charities X, Y, and Z,” not that they’ve actually donated money to them (i.e. they’ve been in talks about the donation process). I don’t know how likely that is, but it’s plausible enough for me to hold back on personal accusations, especially if I had a public platform like a popular YouTube channel (e.g. Mutahar @ someordinarygamers YT channel)
The way I see it, he’s either complicit, lying, or negligent. I’m not going to guess which one until I see more evidence.
Even if he only he knew in 2021 he then continued to claim the money was being donated as recent as 2022. Which means he is either complicit or lying.
