I want to take a second to show my love to Wilbur's ex-community (and I give him no credit) for how incredible the response has been. I've involuntarily always found myself distanced from the worst sides of fandom and communities so this doesn't mean much but I haven't seen any fan try to justify or defend Wilbur's actions, or deny Shubble's story. There were people in the beginning (including survivors) who felt it disrespectful to speculate and jump to conclusions, I respect that. But now that we're all on the same page, I am genuinely astounded by the solidarity. I don't think I've ever seen such cooperation at this scale over the condemnation of an abuser. I mean the Twitch chat moderation team unanimously deciding to quit, taking their work and even Twitch's moderation bot with them, preventing Wilbur from even going live. Every update account across multiple platforms shutting down. Fan blogs closing. People packing up and going home like it's just another 5pm. I love all of you. I mourn your loss and I praise your solidarity and support for Shubble and victims of abuse. How such a terrible person could've created a community full of such good people, I guess I'll never know. Godspeed.

"omg he would never" "no he's a good guy though" "why haven't these women come forward before" "well she's known for being a liar so" "yeah but have you seen the things she used to tweet"

Just a reminder to keep "no idols, no heroes, no gods" mentality. I say this in reference to celebrities and youtubers, etc. I've had this mentality from a very young age. I've only had merch from one creator ever and it was a present. Never put your favorite YouTuber or celebrity on a pedestal, do not idolize them, do not worship them. Over the past month on more recently with some YouTubers and celebrities who many people idolized getting called out for horrible behaviors, I've seen so many people who are "disappointed" and "couldn't believe it." YOU can't believe it, I can. You put these people on pedestals and act as if they are less able to commit atrocious acts or say awful things than other bad people you've come into contact with in your life. They aren't, they are just as able, if not moreso. You don't KNOW them. No matter whose content I'm watching or reading, etc, I never once think that because I deeply enjoy their creation or what they are a part of, it eliminates them from the possibility of being morally wrong or ignorant. I'm not mad at people who have this reaction, being heartbroken, but I simply have learned long ago to not become emotionally invested in creators or celebrities. They are just as bad as real people, they are human. When I say they are human, I'm saying they are just as able to do and say horrible things as people in our own lives are. I'm not surprised by or disappointed in certain information that comes out, because well, I didn't idolize them. It's not surprising to me, because to people in those positions, they are selling you a part of their.personaliy. they are not your friend, they are not people worthy of idolization. You can admire their WORK. But unless you know them personally, even then, do NOT idolize them.

it is truly truly amazing to me how many people will flip on a dime when one of their friends or someone they like is accused of SA and they immediately, after swearing to stand by and believe victims, change their language to “if this is confirmed to be true” or “we don’t know enough” or “this seems like it’s wrong because the alleged perpetrator said it wasn’t true.” you can go ahead and fuck yourself. this neil gaiman and cody ko shit has reminded me how much some of you virtue signal when it’s convenient and then as soon as someone you don’t even know personally, but have a parasocial relationship with gets put in the hot seat it’s all “he wouldn’t do this” he’s famous man, yes he would.
