going into a new month i intended to never bring up the stuff that happened with chuggaaconroy and leave it in january but i found this thread by alfe5, amber! those who watched therunawayguys mario party ds lets play might remember they played on a cartridge she gave them, when they hung out with her with the make a wish foundation- really wonderful person! this thread is her thoughts on the entire situation and she does a really wonderful job breaking it down!
i left out the more explicit parts but you can read the whole thread here
and. wow. this absolutely turned this entire situation around for me.
like most others i kinda just saw what werster posted and was just. in shock, didnt touch it. gave up on chugga, disgusted.
but after seeing this i actually read it and
that. that was just a 14 year old chatlog of some kid trying to flirt with 19 year old emile while he was just trying to talk about earthbound the entire time. Huh.
lady emily is already a superrr unreliable source since shes been known to falsely accuse autistic youtubers to take them down so that combined with "wait they had to dig up stuff from 2010 and then literally lie about what it was..?
i mean. everyone was a horrible person on the internet in 2010. if any youtuber had a chatlog from 2010 leaked theyd be doomed tbh
but wow. this really was nothing more than an ableist scheme to attack and give a mental breakdown to an autistic youtuber who was already dealing with the loss of his cat. nothing more than a pathetic attack to use the horrible people of twitter to harass a good person off the internet
now, emile isnt entirely innocent. i do agree that what happened with masae was really unsettling and bad. but hes going to therapy and taking a long time to work on himself and im happy about that! this break is something that should happen, and i really hope he becomes a better person.
im disappointed in him, but i also think people tried too hard to stretch this to every extreme imaginable (especially when.. only one of the three things stated were actually true). and im really sorry to masaeanela
in the end though, this isnt really a "good or evil" situation. nobody is just good or just evil. chugga did bad things but had also done so many good things, that in the end. so long as nothing like this ever happens again, and he takes his therapy seriously, i will be more than happy to forgive him and welcome him back
the internets already such a negative place, most youtubers Suuuck honestly, ive watched so many gaming youtubers and found them unwatchable with how angey and negative they are- but wow, they really saw one gleaming light of positivity and passion, and were Downright Desperate to crush it
im so sorry i doubted you chuggaaconroy
and i really hope hes okay.
it sucks that things will never go back to normal, its easy to convince the masses of something negative, its impossible to convince the masses of something possitive. and that seemed to be lady emily, antdude, werster, and whoever elses intention. a beacon of light and happiness in the gaming youtube space? close the blinds on it, negativity is whats supposed to get likes and we dont want our negative content getting less because of it. disgusting
i hate to bring this here because this is a twitter thing and should have stayed a twitter thing but the chuggaaconroy tag is full of people who came here from twitter trying to make this spread across the entire internet which Suuucks. but if this drama is on tumblr, then tumblr needs to see ambers thread too. its the last seal on this horrible ordeal, and the first step to a brighter future
anyways support autistic people always. dont listen to twitter and let them drown their brain in their obsession with negativity. and, also part of supporting autistic people, watch chuggaaconroy! thats what im gonna be doing! id recommend his animal crossing new leaf lets play its an amazing one! or his pokemon black/white lets play or his splatoon lets play or his kid icarus uprising lets play or his super mario 64 ds lets play or, any really!
i hope he can come back one day. this drama will wash away and be forgotten as twitter finds a new target, but i hope chugga will return someday, even if things wont be the same. the internet needs beacons of hope like that so badly, no matter how hard twitter will try to tear them down
