This event is currently the center of the culture war for the fash and they view the vtuber audiences as another potential gamergate waiting to happen.
Looking at this, maybe I underestimated the right-wing influence in the whole thing.
I can't provide counter-examples. If you have more information about this event being the center of the culture war, I'd be very interested in reading more. Perhaps I did indeed get tricked because of my personal emotional attachment to the v-tuber scene.
Edit: i will have you know that typing this out was very painful
I mean, it's been the center of the culture war because it's harry potter and it hasn't received a game in decades and the fash see trans people as the primary tool of generating reaction right now.
I'm glad you can see through it. Like, really think about it. You're a hexbear so you KNOW that we are pretty cool and ok with bullying libs, but ask yourself if anyone here has advocated bullying streamers over this. This site is the MOST likely to advocate for actual harassment. But it's just not beneficial, it has only negatives, and there's really no need to bully people when "this is very disappointing" is perfectly adequate.
The average lgbt person isn't doing any harassment, and even the radicals like us are not doing any harassment. So who the fuck is?
Nobody. It's the fascists.
This whole thing started with calling mild criticism "harassment" to begin with. Girlfriend Reviews was not harassed but it was presented as such and claimed she was brought to tears, no such thing happened whatsoever, and that was the starting point from which the fascist then went on to do real harassment in the knock-on false flags.
I think it's also notable that this "harassment" only occurs to women. Where are the male streamers getting harassed? If lgbt people were doing this the target wouldn't be gendered. The fash can not help telling on themselves by only doing this to women.
Hm.
