I honest to god don’t even think most people got upset at the initial joke because it could be homophobic — as a queer person I just took it as a joke with his friend and if his friend personally doesn’t take issue w it I don’t either — but the way he reacted afterwards. The 24/7 online pride parade which gave “I can’t be homophobic I have a gay friend!!!” vibes, the subsequent doxxing, the rightful call out for the very homophobic things his fan base has done because of his actions (I have not forgotten the fall out of that one mcc and the disgusting tweets his fans put out and some have brought up other instances of bullying towards poc lgbtq+ members specifically), the backlash to him feeling accomplished because of what he did and then the fucking poll tweet he since took down. Going “no guys don’t do that :(“ doesn’t do shit because he has done it before and his fan base has not listened and at some point as a rationally thinking adult you have to go maybe I do have some responsibility over this and stop falling into old patterns. That one Einstein quote about doing the same experiment over and over again and expecting a different outcome.
see the initial jokes for me is just . yeah I know is a joke, but a lot of people who arent as familiar with who dream or antfrost is might not. and regardless is the kind of joke that should be relegated to the group chat . IN MY PERSONAL OPINION ofc.
but anyways obviously he can never fully control his fanbase. OBVIOUSLY hes in an unimaginably abnormal and inhuman position that i could never even fathom what its like. so im not like shocked that hes not fully able to like make like reasonable responsible decisions because the human brain is literally like not equipped to handle responsibility and fame on that level. but he like. seems to be under the impression that he somehow can or will eventually be able to? will not accept any sort of help or assistance or pr team. not even looking into managing symptoms of adhd which are definetly like undeniably making everything in his situation worse. obviously i dont know him he might be but considering his past attitude to such things i doubt it err.
and while i sympathize with him for the like. extremely inhuman position hes in im also like. hes a whiteguy millionaire. he has access to resources both in regards to his social media presence and his mental health that people would literally lose a limb over. i can sit here and feel bad for the guy whos managing a giant social media presence all on his own but at some point i have to be like. well hes insisting on doing it alone and that has consequences. and i can also feel bad about how some aspects of his neurology might make everything about his situation a million times worse but im also like. hes the richest whitest adhd guy. he has access to every medication and treatment other people with his disorder do not have and would kill to have, and he doesnt seem to be considering any of it.
like basically the way hes going about his social media fame as it is now is not working. hes not figured out how to make it work. he doesnt seem to consider the options that might make it work and might reduce the damage done to himself and his community. he cant handle his fame at all and right now that has huge consequences and it sucks .!
#like hes basically thrown his social media pills down the drain in a sense is what im getting at.#sorry long rambel. sorry sos osryy i wanted to say this in an other post but decided not to#but now youve given me an ooppiurtnity.#so i shall take it#discourse#long post#dream critical
