Were you living under a rock?
Like Osterzone said, he was her writer/boyfriend (although she never actually came out and said he's her boyfriend). He's one of those high academic types, sort of like Bob but slightly more successful, who deliberately uses long and needlessly complicated words and thinks everything he says sounds clever. He was certainly the 'brains' behind their outfit. While Anita's quite clearly doing it for the con, Johnny Mac's a genuine ideologue.
She does a have a point though, he did turn up to see her Etc.
Don't infe, Larry. Vidcon was essentially a drunken party for these people to finally meet outside of Google Hangout. Anita was just a convenient Circus after the bar closed.

tl;dr - Anita trashes Spergcuck of Nigog from her position of power and VidCon apologizes to *her*
During the panel, a panelist called out one of the audience members for being someone who has made her life very difficult, and wished she didn’t have to give him attention because he was a “garbage human.” Look, we don’t want our panelists to insult our audience members, even when we completely understand that the comment exists in a much broader (and pretty messed up) context. Even when people have said hateful things that everyone in our office disagrees with, we have a policy, and it exists not just to protect people at the show, but to protect our ability to have these conversations.
Our founder, Hank Green, talked with our panelist and said two things:
He told her that her comment had violated our policy, but that he understood that there was a broader context (which to be clear, we were blissfully ignorant of until this weekend, and remain inexpert in.)
He apologized to her for not having been more aware of and active in understanding the situation before the event, which resulted in her being subjected to a hostile environment that she had not signed up for.
We agreed that she would go forward and continue on as a panelist on a later panel.
Massive cuckbarons. She insults Spergegon and violates their policy. They talk to her and apologize, say they know there was a context to the insult and say she can stay despite violating their policies.
Not that I want her to be forced to leave. My preferred solution would be to drop Agent Orange on all of SoCal. I hate having to "defend" Spergecuck of Blatherbeg.

This is pathetic even for them. What's happening with these people? We've got Anita not even pretending that she considers 'harassment' people criticising her and we've got these cucks basically admitting 'yeah, she broke our rules but she's Anita so it''s okay'

No one ever went broke underestimating the will of beta males.
