good <3
Good!!! I've already unfollowed two youtubers over streaming that game and ixnayed Patreon support of one. And I'll do more! I don't care how good your content is, I fucking hate you now and I'm not gonna be able to look at your shit ever again! The least you deserve for the harm you're dealing with this shit is a bit of a bad day.
Cyberbullying is bad but I suspect in this case they actually mean people being like 'wtf I thought better than you' and unsubscribing, which is not cyberbullying. In which case, great work everyone.
That is in fact what Jessie Gender said was happening when she looked into these cases of “bullying”. She has a video explaining on it here
And here's a video by Jim Sterling, who uses the strong incendiary language I prefer when discussing useless self-proclaimed allies "wanting permission from trans people to not take a stand".
If you take some time to look into it, such as the crying streamer article, you'll find that the "bullying" is people writing stuff like "I'm unfollowing", "really disappointed" or "you do you, but I won't be here to watch or support you anymore."
Comments like that is bullying or harassment to these thin-skinned people. Being held accountable or getting criticism is bullying to them.
That's why people need to actually take a second look at articles like the "steamer started crying" article because it may just that that article is feeding into a specific narrative and maybe, just maybe, you need to fact check.
Direct action works. Make sure you’re “bullying” your local politicians about trans laws too! They’re playing the game of real life on this issue and they should be getting at least as much feedback as the streamers. If you’ve supported your trans siblings in the streaming sphere, but not in local government, nows the time to step it up!
