>>98106456Dismiss me if you want, but the truth is people have really come to resent some of you.
We've gotten pretty sick of how sensitive you can be and we're tired of walking on egg shells all the time. I've always kept an open mind about unicorns and in the past you guys never really bothered me. I'll admit I looked down on you at first, but I've come to admire your dedication and yeah I've seen that the pain you feel in these situations is very real. Plus I like CGDCT thus I skipped the homocollab and will skip any others too, it's just not for me. I just don't give a shit about male vtubers so yea I can relate to you on that front kek.
Homobeggars on the other hand bothered me a lot. They would infantilize talents, assume they didn't know what they were doing or even attack them for not wanting to include Holostars -- hell they're still doing it. The total lack of compassion they have for you is off putting and they seemed more concerned with moral panic than the very real and complicated emotional landscape that can be present in this scene, whether they want to acknowledge it or not. Just because they think it's cringe doesn't make it any less real, and there's no need for you to be excluded or denied your feelings. But most importantly, I see no reason to not trust that the girls know what they're doing and that they're making the content they want to make. They have the right to do what they want. That's really, really important to me and I hope you can sympathize with that better than they can.
But over the years, you've come to resemble homobeggars yourselves. The moment I think I really started to lose patience with you was with ERB. Here was someone who was open and honest about her actions from the very beginning, someone who made her intentions perfectly clear so that there would be no doubt whatsoever. Since her debut, I've seen people not just here but on twitter accuse her of being the downfall of Hololive and all this other bullshit. They've been hounding her and targeting her like an ideological enemy. It's dumb as fuck.
The more subtle shit bothers me too, like how some people, admittedly very few, had the gall to have a problem with Biboo interacting with Casey Edwards when he showed up in chat. I get it, insane retards are inevitable, but little shit like that builds up over time and contributes to an unsavory view of you all.
And now this happens. Okay, I really think Shiori handled all this very poorly so you'll get no argument from me there. But you've handled it very poorly too. While I commend the initial polite responses (that Shiori had no right to ban), I've really been bothered by how you've drag unrelated talents into this mess purely out of spite. If you had just voted with your wallet and moved on there would be no issue, but that hasn't happened. So a lot of people have lost what little sympathy they had left for you.
More people care about the integrity of the creative product than the whims of a subsection of fans, regardless of the influence you may or may not have. Your behaviour has driven people away, maybe it drove Shiori away too, I don't know and I certainly don't really care any more. You're on your own.
