i'm so fucking tired about how the internet has to dissolve every discussion into some fucking black-and-white "us vs. them" shit
#dax rambles#i know it's always been a thing online it's the internet so what can you expect lol#but oh my god it's so much worse than ever before because most of this shit revolves around worshipping/flaming fucking e-celebs#this is about HBG's plagarism video by the way#like all people are taking from the video is the IH part and people are either completely god-defending IH or acting like he's this#scum of the earth plagarist and it's so annoying#the video itself was way fucking more than that and both sides arguing about it are wrong anyway lol#IH isn't innocent obviously that was blatant theft but it was something that he already adressed and amended + there aren't really any othe#examples of him doing this - yet - to my knowledge#just annoying how a legit interesting topic that is pretty important to the state of YT and the internet as a whole has just been fucking#boiled down into more e-celeb drama once again#i can see why it riled people up because i'll be honest that section about IH felt extremely biased just because HBG doesn't like his#content or apparent “politics” and there was a lot of shit that really didn't need to be mentioned and felt very petty which sort of took#away from the points he was making against him lol#again not defending what IH did i do think it was obvious theft and it was very shitty how he didn't apologise or address what actually#happened but there was a lot of stuff HBG brought up that really rubbed me in the wrong way cause it felt very unessecery and even#hypocritical because he brought up the politics shit for no reason when he literally gave the first guy shit for doing that lol#but yeah i still think people aren't really taking away what they should've from that video since the IH was a very short section compared#to the focus on james and the overall subject of plagarism and erasure of original writers/artists especially marginalised creators
