Way Too Into Block Men @scarrrrred-for-life - Tumblr Blog

Putting dividers in bus benches can make waiting for a bus physically painful for larger people. Removing places to sit by adding spikes to them makes public spaces less accessible for everyone.

Yet despite all that, the primary focus of these things is animus towards unhoused people.

This post is about transmisogyny.

In honor of Beef returning to HC, here's my fav Beef moment (as a non-Beef watcher)

transcription:

Beef : Should we break the good news to him?

xB : I mean. . . Can you guess? Well, well, remember that--

Beef : We're pregnant! I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding. . .

Bdubs : Congratulations!

xB and Beef : laughing

Beef : That's not what's happening, no.

Bdubs : Oh, okay.

talking with people in the same minecraft fandom as you like 'they're going to realize i'm a fraud. i've only watched 4 perspectives of the same event, and not all of them. i'm not a real fan"

this is hauntingly beautiful and i've thought about it every day since i first read this article

Hold up, so you're telling me that last year, Scar's team had to enter through a different entrance due to the fact that the Twitch Rivals stage didn't have a ramp...

And instead of fixing that problem that they had and ENTIRE YEAR to fix,

They DIDN'T?!

And the Pink Parrots, who keep in mind won, had to do their intros and receive their prizes IN FRONT of the stage?

And Twitch, who knew for a while in advance that Scar was coming, failed to do anything to assist him and make the stage accessible??

Twitch Con, you guys seriously need to get your act together.

We genuinely need to raise as much awareness about this as we can- ideally we should inform people even outside the MCYT community. Twitch HAS to listen to us if we get loud and angry and mean about this. Something needs to change NOW.

This was disrespectful of twitch. Period.

i was at mcc live. the pink parrots were also the only team not to enter from the stage bc of the lack of a ramp. it's why they entered from the back and passed through the audience

there was also an award show at 'half time' during which the hermits won an award, and they were the only group that didn't go on stage bc they didn't have a ramp

toward the end of the games, they had all participants go on stage for a skit thing... except Scar (and a few of the others who decided to hang out with him instead of going up, though i heard staff tried to convince those people to leave Scar and go on stage)

there were three moments, even outside of accepting the MCC win, in which they knew Scar was supposed to be on stage, and they did not give him any ability to actually get on stage

Let’s Talk about Skizz

Alright so, I’m sure some of you have seen and some of you haven’t, but Skizz addressed the whole situation both with the “trans rights” message and his moderators.

In essence, Skizz affirmed that he whole-heartedly believes in trans rights (he actually said the words) and that he has “parted ways” with the moderators in question. He also stated that his colleagues have helped him understand the situation better and have helped him navigate how to deal with it and how to better moderate hateful comments in his YouTube comment section (which I didn’t even know were happening but I’m glad to hear nonetheless). His wording wasn’t perfect, but frankly I’ve never asked for or expected perfection. Just hearing him outright say trans rights and him taking the step to remove those moderators is, frankly, enough for me personally to forgive him.

I know it won’t be enough for some people, and I understand that completely. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t going to take some time for my trust in Skizz to be rebuilt. But I will say that I am no longer reluctant to even touch his stuff for fear that my money will go to someone who voted for a man who wants me dead (to be clear this is about the moderator. I was never under the belief that Skizz himself was a bigot). I was a huge Skizz fan before this incident and that might be making it easier for me to forgive him, and I get that.

I just wanted to say this here because I know enough people follow me who felt deeply betrayed by this situation who may want to know this update, but haven’t been watching Skizz for obvious reasons. I only found out because someone posted about it on the Hermitcraft subreddit and I decided to take their word for it and watch his statement. I implore you to watch it as well and make up your own mind.

The statement is the first 8 minutes of this video. Again, watch it and determine how you feel for yourself. For me personally, just hearing him say “trans rights”, apologizing for how everything was handled, and saying those moderators are no longer on his team is enough. But I understand why for others it might not be.
