Saw this post cuz someone reblogged and I’m thinking about it again.. I’m literally so right..
Nobody can see into my brain or private messages rn but I just made some really awesome points about genloss & other medias about the strange idea of how “viewers are really the ones who made this happen”
#like AUGHH#yes of course it’s the viewers who chose and continue to use but it’s the platform who continues to exploit and abuse the viewers attention#the choice has no good ending… it was made specifically for us to feel guilt and bear the weight of gl!ranboos death#but we were never the ones to put them in those chains#and I think it’s just interesting#the commentary of viewers negatively impacting ccs is an important one and I DO agree with it#but I think it’s removing what Showfall could represent which is the environment on the internet that let’s these things happens#the exploitation by corporations and people who may not even really care about the cc to either keep them up and useful for entertainment#or to make their downfall a spectacle to behold (aka. live or die choice)#the viewer is guilty.. they are always guilty#if they did not watch and did not enjoy what was being shown one way or another then there would be no choice to be made#or people to be exploited#but the viewers are also part of this exploitation.. of their OWN emotions#genloss viewers were exploited just like the actors and other workers bexause we were given false hope#a false image that things are fine or that something better can be achieved when it couldn’t#idk where I’m going with this exactly..#just think it’s interesting to me#and that it’s a shame the role showfall has is one that is ignored#especially since it’s so obvious.. they control the cameras.. they are the people behind the sets and stage and are the reason gl!Ranboo#is even being seen
