Natalie isn't dumb, she knows what she is doing, her dog whistling to rehabilitated chuds and abandonment of swathes of the transcommunity that do not follow her views aren't some mere mistake or snafu, describing herself as an old school transsexual is a clear pushback against the current transcommunity. She has a massive platform and is a liability to the transcommunity now because she is dismissive of parts of it.

There is so, so much to say on this. Probably not now. But needless to say, Free Horace. From the most disgraceful, arbitrary and bullying case of copyright striking I have seen.

you're viewing it through the lens of "she hosed up a bunch", which is valid. another lens, that i believe many in the thread are using, is that these aren't multiple separate gently caress ups on the same issue over a extended period of time, but internally consistent actions arising out of an actual belief she holds that specifically excludes and reduces others.

She's hosed up and keeps loving up and her loving up is now making her community a real comfy place for fuckers whose deal she's playing right into.

No.1 Special posted:Stop Skeletons From Fighting presents YouTube: A Horror Story I've yet to watch that video in full, but he mentions a video by Nerd City on YouTube demonetization. I haven't watched that one either, but I heard about it a week or two ago, and thought to post it in the thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll8zGaWhofU It's bizarre the number of benign words and phrases that can get your video demonetized. Highlights include 'funeral', 'South Carolina', 'Shrek', 'sadly' ,'HowToBasic', 'Bluray', 'decay', and 'disposition'

All the same, it pretty clearly comes from a lack of thoughtfulness in the moment or willingness to examine what’s driving her to respond poorly rather than some kind of carefully executed master plan. It seems like the kind of thing therapy might help to address, especially since she’s spent years in a sort of highly visible fishbowl being pressed on by strong praise and powerful contempt from the left and the right. My mind would be pudding after a few months of that.

Yeah, I think it's a fair take to say that Natalie's brain has probably been thoroughly broken by two years of constant oscillation between getting love-bombed and burned in effigy.

I personally think that someone being very unwell in tool 2019 is far more likely than them being some sort of cryptofash double agent who has cunningly disguised their COINTELPRO schemes as a series of social gently caress-ups, especially since "fame makes you go crazy" is a very well documented effect

I don't watch Contra much, nor like what I have seen, but her content is not primarily "trans" content right? It is breadtube stuff, she just happens to be trans? It seems sort of weird that because of her gender situation all of her actions now apparently reflect on and inform the trans community / movement. Even her personal associations constitute harm? Eh, maybe so, but the way people are putting a ton of pressure on already marginalized voices seems disproptional and counterproductive. Contra hardly strikes me as a chud, even if I personally think her chud outreach is pretty misguided. Feels weird seeing people basically saying she needs to meet their personal trans ideal if she's to have a public voice tho. I mean, fair game if her content now is her getting into it and actively trying to set some trans "agenda", but if people are just hounding her she should take a page out of the Chapos book and respond like they do. thotsky fucked around with this message at 03:16 on Oct 17, 2019 |

Yeah, contrapoints started as a "hoist them by their own logic" anti-chud platform, shifted into more direct mockery of the right, and then shifted more into gender stuff plus philosophy, as Natalie began transitioning around the same time her channel blew up.

It's amazing that its over a mascot lower on the ranks than like, Awesome Possum or Mr. Nuts. Like, Horace's only claim is "What? A mascot franchise? On my microcomputer?". Altho an amazing trip I've had was to watch Kim's vid on Manic Miner, then her top 100 zx titles vid, only to get a twitch notification for a Manic Miner race that was around two hours of them shittalking it. Yes, Manic Miner was a gem... on microcomputers. Oh boy, Jeremy Parish is going to tackle Deadly Towers next NES works. For some reason that game has gotten a "Actually, people hate this game because of Seanbaby" reputation and ... no. That game is genuinely awful.

One thing I've learnt about youtube is that aside from a few exceptions its the owners of Ips that bring in peanuts or aren't commercially active that are the most vindictive. Owners of big profitible clips and characters tend to just content id to siphon off ad revenue. The owner of an obscure character or movie that isnt even available to purchase any more though? Well they'll go out of there way to tank a channel that barely uses its image
