>>7268229thing is, I kinda felt like there was some genuine sentiment there at the time, considering how people on tumblr behaved. a lot of traumaposting, both the real and horrifying kind and the imagined for clout kind, from the perspectives of people who were absed as children. a lot angry feminism as a result. she absoloutely could have fit in by just keeping her mouth shut about the topic, but I do think she genuinely got invested and felt ashamed about her past - I don't buy into the cynical hypocrite narrative about this part of her past at all.
However, then she became a vtuber inspired by Hololive, where is where things get complicated, and I understand the "hypocite" sentiment here considering that a lot of hololive members openly joke about lolicon, with a few being genuine enthusiasts. In Asia - and particualrly in Japan - lolicon doesn't have the same taboo as it does in the states - real child rape does, but they're able to draw a fairly mentally healthy line between fantasy and reality. In the west, there's a widespread perception that if the sexual reality of something is taboo, then the sexual fantasy of it must be too. I honestly just think this is something she'd never thought about before and wasn't really prepared for. However, considering all the horrible shit this place has done to her and her family, I don't blame her for not feeling that she owes this place an explanation or clarification.
