VictualSquid posted:It is the twitter trolley problem. and the idea that the way contra gets to justify it is by putting out more #content instead of just going 'yeah my bad' is gross. it just makes the entire thing feel like a pr stunt. like im sure it wouldnt satisfy some people but i guarantee this entire thing would have blown over by now is if shed just say 'buck angel is a shithead' and not 'do i hate nonbinary people? find out on the next exciting episode of dragon ball z!'

I feel like the stalkers who ring your grandma’s doorbell at 3:00am have an outsized footprint relative to their actual numbers. I don’t blame someone dealing with that for tarring me with the same brush because that’s an exceptional circumstance.

Endorph posted:heavens' arena is really bland but yorknew is a great arc because it's also a shonen fight arc but not, it's a crime drama with double crosses and a weird game of cat and mouse where the villains and protagonists not even knowing each other's names and faces is a major plot point and lasts for like 80% of the arc lol the windows movie maker FAIL when the punchline hits actually kinda adds to it

Endorph posted:literally just 'fyi buck angel sucks' would probably not validate the latter group but itd make the former group feel better. you dont need to make this more complicated than it is. there are two groups here, people who have a weird grudge against contrapoints and people who are mad she worked with buck angel. the way you navigate that is by going 'yea working with buck angel was probably a bit of a bad call eh' without disowning or actually harming contrapoints. thats it really. and ellis's post says that and then just... keeps going in a way that just adds on a bunch of questionable poo poo So when someone says : That dude sucks, but your demands imply problematic normalization of traditional hate group tactics that have hurt real people. Then you can either accept it or admit that you were always interested in normalizing the concept of communal responsibility.

I watched the dub of the pilot episode of Armored Troopers Votoms and it was bad but I'm sad we never got any of the series dubbed.

Not contra, Ellis. Contra can suck it.

VictualSquid posted:No contra, Ellis. Contra can suck it. My issue with Ellis's statement isn't that she's still friends with contra or that she addresses people demanding she stop being friends with her as weirdos, it's the conflict between 'how many times does contra need to explain her views on nb people, have faith and watch the next video' and 'you don't know youtubers, these are real people you have literally never talked to.' these two are just straight up incompatible, and I think they're kind of at the center of this. The people defending contra are simultaneously saying you don't know youtubers but also that you need to have faith in contra.
