for those who wants to see her response video on patreon: https://kemono.su/patreon/user/126798354/post/104512169 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcx6VFZJPwc
(i'm not qualified to speak on the topic (and neither is she))
look, i'll try to be fair to her:
- she has things to say about being a youtuber and parasocial relationships
- she understands people are pissed for good reason
- a lot of things said about the situation is wrong, due to how the internet sensationalized the drama. for example, she's not doing it to promote her patreon, nor is it intended to be a "social experiment"
- great choice to put the response on patreon, since the internet will make it even worse
that's it. now for a list of things that went wrong.
a list of things that went wrong
first video
- using a sensitive topic
- not making it clear that it's a joke, while only the most dedicated fans figured out it's a joke
- portrays herself in a difficult situation, causing people to sympathize
- some people has relatives who has been through the same thing, or went through it themselves
second video
- adds a new sensitive topic (miscarriage, and by extension abortion)
- the thumbnail is just....
- "the joke is that you believed it" will 100% piss the believers off
- talks about parasocial relationship, yet rewards the most dedicated fans
- plugging patreon in the end, making it easier to make fun of you
- NOT apologizing
-
patreon response video
- still NOT apologizing
- trying to be deep at all. she's barely older than me.
- goes on a tangent about.... cancel culture? comments on the internet when you're the one needing it?
- using phrases that people can easily use against you
- i don't care
- i am not ashamed of what i did
- get over it
- cancel culture
- triggered
- anti-fragility
thank god she did not make this video public
