Not sure this is the right com, but it feels closest. Just saw the announcement that the Hololive Vtuber Coco is leaving. She didn't give a reason, but people are assuming it has to do with the antis she's been hounded by since referring to Taiwan as Taiwan when going over analytics in a stream. I'm sad to see her go, she was never my favorite but I liked some of her stuff and she's a big part of hololive. However, I just do not get the insane level of hatred towards China and communism these reddit weebs are just spilling everywhere. Do they honestly think Xi has a list like "1. genocide 2. bully Vtuber"? I am just so tired of the sinophobia in internet cultures. I'm tired of reactionary weebs. I'm tired of people saying they "don't want political shows/games/streamers/whatever" but want to just spread the most fascist takes possible. Sorry if this is barely comprehensible. I'm tired, sad, and angry. I love anime and Vtubers, but why are so many of the people who watch it just so incredibly awful?

    That's the only reason they can think of as to why Cover would make her go. That's the only possible controversy

    That being said I think she's the one who made the decision to leave, at least according to the sentiment on the Hololive subreddit and what the other Hololive members have said

      She has definitely made the decision, based upon what she and Covercorp have said. However, that is not the only controversy. She has a very crass sense of humor and enjoys getting other members to say lewd or mature things. Not saying that's the worst thing ever, just that it has been somewhat controversial.
