Daniel Larson: Difference between revisions

''Main article: [[Classic Era]]''[[File:D9F97C6D-7448-4BFB-8602-C7FE38903361.jpg|thumb|A cropped meme of the May 6th incident.]]The Classic Era began in March 2020 with the creation of Daniel's notable TikTok account, @daniellarsonfans, where his unorthodox appearance and strange mannerisms quickly gained him a significant following. His content ranged from showcasing his disability housing to expressing his aspirations to be a singer-songwriter and celebrity. One of his popular videos during this time was one where he said "good night, everyone" to the camera, which marked a significant rise in his popularity. In July, he announced his 2020 presidential candidacy, gaining ironic support. By August, trolls under the guise of  "[[management]]" companies and record labels began exploiting his desire for fame, manipulating him into saying and doing increasingly offensive and questionable actions. Despite this, Daniel continued to amass followers, released his first song, "[[Fake News]]," in October 2020.

During the later months of the year, Daniel's reputation would take a nosedive. In November, Daniel's [[Pinterest]] account was found and subsequently leaked. The account had albums filled with images of children and maps of the age of consent in the United States, suggesting that Daniel had a sexual interest in young girls. Daniel immediately attempted damage control, claiming that the account was not his, even suggesting he had no idea what Pinterest was.

These arguments were quickly deconstructed, as the accounts email was linked to an old Twitter account. At some point, Daniel would admit ownership of the account, then immediately return to denying its existence, just before admitting to owning it once more. He was confronted by multiple parties about the account, including his then-management, [[Roach Records]]. Subsequently, Daniel would delete his Pinterest account by November 21, locking down his TikTok account until December. Upon returning, he was interviewed by [[The Delegation Podcast]], who asked him several questions about the legitimacy of the Pinterest account. After this, they proceeded to report Daniel to law enforcement, under the belief that Daniel was in possession of exploitative images of children.

On December 17, 2020, Daniel made his final post, claiming to be auditioning for America's Got Talent, asking his followers to "Please stay turned." Despite this, he did not post again after this. It was later revealed that this disappearance was due to him being reported to FBI, as he was under investigation due to him being suspected to be in the possession of CSEM.  [[File:Daniel Larson Fog.png|This instance of the fog  in July of 2021.
