Obviously this situation is often very nuanced and case by case but most of the time I think witch hunting a cc because they’ve collabed with someone you don’t like (not talking about known current racists homophobes (ice pos) etc) and making them apologize for the transgressions of other people is fucking brain dead. Like the tommy ksi thing. No one told you you have to like ksi or support him, but making tommy apologize for being transphobic (which he objectively wasn’t) was literally dumb as hell. Yelling at tommy isn’t going to do anything about ksi.
It’s just all so hypocritical cause they (mainly talking about twt) cherry-pick who to be mad at and who to excuse. Techno said some terrible things and he’s been reintroduced into the lore with like 0 pushback. Pokimane breathes in Karl’s direction and suddenly she’s trending pokimane neg
Idk it just irks me ig
Ps all these people are just examples and my opinions about each situation are very complex and not worth writing it all down here. That’s a different unpopular opinion ;)
yeah i understand that this is a very like, broad overaching opinion that includes a lot of examples that are definitely more nuanced than “one got shit for it and one didnt” and like for example with the tommyinnit thing being heavily misconstrued i believe, but like. ahh, gosh, this was a lot anon and i really would love to say my piece about it (yall arent ever gonna see me be this like,, vocal?? abt shit? ever? unless this unpopular opinions thing just keeps going which i dont mind that much). Putting it under a cut bc this is already a long enough post as-is /nm.
send me your unpopular opinions!
overall i do strongly agree with you. it’s absolutely fucking stupid to cancel a content creator for associating with a certain content creator,, before cancelling that content creator themselves?? or, like you said, making them apologize for associating with that content creator and therefore “shouldering” whatever heinous act they commited. like, first of all, A. maybe the person didn’t know (Tommy & Karl, probably) or B. unfortunately, the world of content creation isn’t just so clear cut like that. Unfortunately, people are going to have to interact with people who they don’t like/dont necessarily support the ideals of, just because, that’s connections that is absolutely detrimental to one’s career if broken, you know? Like. No ones twisting their arm telling them to associate. But it’s not that easy to just let go of them. At the same time, if you preach one thing and you heavily associate with someone who openly and knowingly goes against that belief, that can also make you sound pretty fucking tonedeaf, man.
But,, yeah. Twt has a tendency to cherry pick a lot. That’s a whole nother conversation, about how certain creators (typically the cishet white kind) get leeway on things that other creators (poc, women, woc especially, anyone who’s not cishet white) would get cancelled to the ground over for. It’s just.. god. A whole thing. Like. I’d love to talk about the whole thing with Andivmg, which is also a kind of nuanced example that I feel like deserves its own unpopular opinions ask like this but i feel like we’ve been too spicy this night as is.
tldr: Being part of a large active fandom with a huge side on twitter and its cancel culture hellfire shithole is so damn exhausting. Why do y’all think I never use it and just chill around here?
