>>75598397Basic milquetoast takes on this that are real and true:
Kirsche should have been allowed at the con, given that it was a non-political 18+ panel with another vtuber.
If it was a panel about her ranting about DEI shit, then of course by all means ban her then.
This is a bit different to the Niji situation, since Niji has the valid concern of their livers potentially being harassed given all the stuff about Kurosanji recently.
It is pretty stupid for apparently a few volunteers to hold such sway over who is allowed at the con, and sets an extremely poor precedent.
It was not her place to make stuff about Offkai volunteers trying to blacklist Pippa last year public, even if she did confuse it for the stuff at Youmacon.
By doing this stuff, Kirsche may well have cemented herself as a complete brand risk and jeopardized future con appearances, as well as her relationship with Phase/Pippa.
She no longer enjoys the luxury of being a 'literal who'.
I think she'll likely become much more isolated from the vtubing scene as a whole thanks to this, other than the bunch who are already in her circle, and basically be one of those annoying political fleshtubers on dogshit youtube 'gaming' podcasts who spend half the time reading superchats and saying nothing of substance.
A V-Fleshtuber, if you will. Vleshtuber. Virtual Flesh. Whatever.
