so what the hell we gonna do about that stupid post making an issue about sapnap sending a fleshlight in his friend teamspeak 😭

I SAW THATTTTT.

It's such a fucking nothingburger. No one is getting fucking traumatized or hurt from that and mind you he would've been like. 19????

Idk.

There's literally zero evidence of him being predatory or having weird intent in that screenshot at all LMAO it's an out of context screenshot from 5 years ago and anyone who tries to make a controversy out of it is dumb as fuck.

Idk the recent trend of trying to cancel people for daring to say something nsfw in front of a wide audience is insane.

link for anyone interested ig

“to accuse someone of a literal crime is-“

tubbo. you and your friend group called him a sexual abuser, a groomer, supplied alcohol to minors on purpose to have sex with them, and a pedophile.

one thing i keep thinking about is the difference between Dream & Tommy’s comments….

Tommy’s comments are living for the drama, they’re interested in the hate spread about *other* creators.

Meanwhile Dreams comments are all begging him to stop giving a fuck and just play minecraft or to just upload manhunt again soon.

Dreams comments section want dreams content, tommy’s comments section just wants negativity spread about other creators

to me it’s pretty telling which one of the two will have a more sustainable and lasting career in the long run….

Once your content becomes drama farming there's no coming back from it.

Gaming content is niche, not everyone is interested in certain video games or certain playstyles, the kind of stuff that varies between content creators.

But drama as a form of entertainment is, unfortunately, a universal language that everyone thinks they understand.

I think what's happening is creators like Tommy and Tubbo and Jack have learned how to make a career off making private issues public. They know how their audience feels about certain content creators and they use that to their advantage whether or not they agree with the treatment their audience gives that creator.

They claim basic communication skills to be a manipulation tactic and continue to put themselves into narratives they were never a part of in the first place because they don't actually want to have private conversations. They want their audience to be there no matter what to back up everything they say and tear down the perceived enemy.

I have tried to look at this from an unbiased lens so many times and try to understand Brighton Crews point of view but truly genuinely the only thing I'm getting is "we don't like Dream because Tommy doesn't like Dream."

And I can respect that! There's plenty of people I don't like solely because my friends don't!

But the way they go about it tells me all they want out of this is views and to feel justified in shit talking someone who clearly has had zero interest in talking back.

alternatively: sapnap comes at as bi as damage control -yapolo

DEAR GOD PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I WILL NEVER ASK FOR ANYTHING ELSE AGAIN.

[sapnapgosolo]

honkity post a picture of them kissing as damage control -yapolo

yappers im going to hunt you for sport

[sapnapgosolo]

second of all. why does twitter need everything in front of them all the time.

acting like sapnap revoked his support of someone who was hurt just because he deleted a tweet that had already reached its target audience? seriously?

it's been months. it was deleted because everyone involved in the situation has moved on. and bringing it back up just isn't going to do shit.

[sapnapgosolo]

first of all if quackity comes out as bi as damage control i will eat my fucking hat

[sapnapgosolo]

there is so much going on right now

[pinewae]

something else to keep in mind, and i'm speaking in general terms when i make these posts because the company and conditions someone works in can vary so much, but there's a common meme about the boss/manager red flag where they say "we're like a family here" referring to their working team. trying to inorganically create personal life dynamics in the workplace is a manipulation tactic, it makes it far easier to guilt people into staying when they think of leaving, and it might make questionable behavior less alarming if they feign that sort of sympathetic familiarity. also your work superior trying to force a family dynamic can just plainly be. very creepy. nothing wrong with a relaxed work environment where everyone gets along well but there is still a power dynamic. keep an eye out for managers using that as leverage

I need to be awake in three hours but I'm just thinking of this

Like, Aimsey right. I have many many problems with them. But my biggest problem is how they try to paint themselves as this huge advocate for queer people, women and mental health to their audience

And yet they shit on Dream. If you're truly going to be an advocate for any of this, talk about the biggest victim of homophobia in your own community. Sure Drean doesn't get called slurs every day (that's an Uber exclusive ✨️) but at the end of the day, the reason Dream gets treated like that is because he himself is queer and he welcomes a queer female audience with open arms

But no, Aimsey just uses him and and the rest of dteam as punching bags. They see them as less. Aimsey can not and will never be a truly safe space until they acknowledge what Dream has been through and the role they played to help perpetuate it. Aimsey proves the whole thing about how people's queerness is judged on morality

Dream is the biggest victim mcyt has ever witnessed and yet all they see is a villain. Congrats the right wing smear campaign worked.

Aimsey and the rest of the Brighton bastards can tout all they want about how they want to support victims and queer people and marginalized communities but until they're able to see past their own biases and accept the blatant hate they've helped spread, they will never be that. They will be two-faced liars who only accept you when it's to no harm them. As soon as they have to make themselves uncomfortable for your rights and comfort, all they give is scorn

Associating with Dream is hard, it is let's not kid ourselves. Even as fans it can be difficult and most fans feel like they have to hide when they're out in the real world. But that's precisely why it's so important that anyone who claims to be all for marginalized people is also willing to show support for Dream

That also goes to Catelyn. She called George out happily without hearing his side of the story but it was crickets when it came to punz.

This goes to Sniff who was all to eager to tear Dream down and share Andi's story but has been deathly silent on every other matter. This goes to Rue who in the midst of people reeling over what was found out about Wilbur took the opportunity and painted Dream as an enabler when he was simply in the room. This goes to all of them, every single one who can't keep Dream’s name out of their mouth as the general public slowly forgets theirs

And it goes to their fans too. Their fans who happily alienate and ostracize Dream fans on the basis of us enjoying our silly little guys. They who blindly believe every awful word that's thrown Dream’s way without wondering what he did to be called that and never question why they're so eager to hate him

I mention Dream the most because he's undeniably the center of all this, but neither George nor Sapnap are safe from this either

It frustrates me to no end because they're so incredibly preformative. Dream never outright says go support victims, but every month he quietly donates to a charity in support of victims

He doesn't try and claim he's an advocate for queer people, he just exists and fosters a community where you can be openly about that. He also designs delightfully subtle pride merch. He doesn't claim he's an advocate for mental health, but he occasionally mentions his own struggles as a teen and how he got through it and tells us it'll be okay even if it doesn't feel that way or he'll say yeah I'm medicated now and it helps

He isn't loud about any of this. He just quietly makes it known his thoughts and feelings in small ways that resonate deeply with his audience.

He's not an advocate, he's just someone who when accused of something decided to try and do something good while clearing his name. He's not an advocate, he's a queer person that exists. He's not an advocate, he's just a young adult who struggled in his younger years.

He's not an advocate but he's made his space a safe one regardless of who and what you are.

I got severely off topic and rambled sorry 😅

💫

don’t apologize, i appreciate hearing your thoughts <3

these parts of what you said really stood out to me:

“Aimsey proves the whole thing about how people’s queerness is judged on morality”

“They will be two-faced liars who only accept you when it’s no harm to them”

“As soon as they have to make themselves uncomfortable for your rights and comfort, all they give is scorn”

you’re right; if you want to foster a safe space for marginalized groups, you cannot pick and choose who is valid and who isn’t. we see this in so many different spaces and in so many different ways — the second that someone who’s part of a marginalized group isn’t liked anymore (usually because of others’ moral superiority complexes), they are completely alienated from their community at the hands of loud ‘advocates’.

one thing that really bothers me about all of this is that the main strength in advocacy is education. educating people is advocacy. and then these creators come forward claiming to be advocates who foster safe spaces, yet their only forms of ‘education’ or discussion are heated rants about other creators they don’t like, vagueing ongoing situations or drama, and shitting on creators like dream. and the worst part is how obvious it is that they haven’t even attempted to think critically about any of the hate they’re spreading. also, spreading hate is not advocacy! ever! spreading hate is not ‘supporting victims’! you’re inherently taking away from victims when you shift the focus onto someone to target. turning someone else into a victim isn’t supporting victims.

and about all the action dream has taken to support people in marginalized groups: there’s even a massive difference between those other creators & dream in terms of the messages they spread and the behaviours they encourage. dream has ALWAYS told his fans not to spread hate or fight people on his behalf. he has ALWAYS encouraged empathy, understanding, and compassion, and shown it himself even when the other party doesn’t necessarily deserve it and hasn’t shown him the same. he doesn’t go on hate-rants about other creators. he ALWAYS gives people the benefit of the doubt and tries to look at things from every possible perspective.

yes, talking is a huge part of advocacy. but an even bigger part is action. content creators make their agendas and intentions clear through their actions and behaviour, but their fans often get distracted by their words (i.e. “this is a safe space for queer people”). all of those examples you listed of ways dream has been a silent advocate makes his agenda clear. the same goes for creators like aimsey, who make empty promises and then do things that directly contradict the things they’re saying (claiming to support victims, yet completely ignoring all of the ways dream has been victimized).

advocacy is uncomfortable, period. being a large voice in a community and using that reach to support marginalized groups can shine a huge spotlight on creators. and once you see where a creator draws the line, where their support and ‘advocacy’ ends, their intentions and agendas become visible very quickly. and usually, the point where advocacy becomes too uncomfortable for a creator happens much sooner than people would expect. this is the issue with fans taking a creator’s words at face value; if those words aren’t backed up by any action, often times that means they’re untrue.

Also, saying you're "autistic and pick up on weird things" does not excuse you for publicly implying someone is a sexual assaulter because they ignored you once on call and won in a game. Stop using your neurodivergencies to excuse you being a total asshole!!! you're only feeding the stigma around us!!!!

[sapchats-archive]

sorry. Sorry but i hold a minimal amount of sympathy for sophie actually, she took a nothingburger interaction that was void of any and all malicious intent (george didn't ignore her because he hates women he was tired and shy, dream wasn't really good at figuring out she was imposter because he hates women he's just good at the game, etc) and stewed over it for years because she felt personally attacked and she fostered this grudge and then tried to come out with it like theyd committed some serious offense . like hello . over an amongus game . and then had the audacity to respond to dream and STILL being vague about what he/george did even though he's literally asking so he can learn and apologize and what have you just to try and pull the autistic card and say he's "pressuring" her to tell him (which, he wasn't, but acting like he's not allowed to know why he's being accused or even what hes even being accused of is nuts) and then saying he's not ALLOWED to leak dms to defend himself from accusations SHE made public like it's just fucking comical at this point
