We moralize our media consumption so much that nobody can just say “I do not like the Internet funnyman” and leave it at that and instead have to make up fake discourse about how the Internet funnyman is “toxic” for being eccentric and antisocial. As an Internet funnyperson and an utter train wreck of a human being myself, I find this overtly threatening.

I also don’t like the part where Mr. Travis McElroy is a public figure w/ a highly stigmatized personality disorder and a lot of the bizarre contrived discourse is about how he’s “toxic” for [checks notes] showing symptoms of mental illness. Which makes me feel super not great.

I wish y'all could learn to just like or not like media in a normal way without turning everything into some weird moral crusade.
