The most difficult position that I hold in my pursuit of liking Lia is that she is simply so far removed from the foundational knowledge of the medium by which she plants her self. Of course I may be wildly mistaken. The myriad kaleidoscopic facets by which this industry is viewed is overwhelming by design. It's an iteration of an iteration of a operating system designed for very particular systems.
I can't help but be reminded of the ultimate "pop" delineation in the developmental mechanisms of this entire morass. That is the Federal Agency backed media celebration of David Bowie as a Laurel Canyon tier psyop against the consumer versus the lesser, still federally mandate disclosure agent of Momus. There's something of Momus in Lia, Momus of course being the name sake of the God of Mockery, compared to the Bowie of the "in lights" Phase Connect talents.

Her recent streams have held steadfast in this capacity, but I can feel the wavering quality of her talent. Lia might become an echo of her own self in these more recent performances, interjected with moments of brief, brilliant self assertion. The finest quality of CONSUMING Lia is found in questioning her quality, of course. It's in seeking out whether or not there is the neccessary self assurance in her presentation or just, in some degree an equally satisfying, bombastic assertion of what she should be.
FWIW I feel like I Was Maoist Intellectual is some sort of fundamental assertion of the chuuba industry ,at least the performers that matter. Lumi does it well, Pippa flirts with it, some of the other talents embrace it, but I think Lia does it best in that her actions call forth the questions without any meaningful engagement, leaving it an unspoken quandary in the mind of the viewer. It's just not a quality that other talents demand.
