I don’t follow dramatubers either, I just get some info from this lemmy community or the corresponding subreddit.
And if she didn’t have the money she shouldn’t have made that post. Even just opening her twitter she has a LOT of posts with 30k likes or more, did she expect less from a post like that?
And that was just the first mistake, she doubled down by not making any public statement about it. Which sure, wouldn’t have mattered for the antis, but neither does this document about her relationships. Still, she preferred “clearing” herself of a baseless rumor rather than owning up to a mistake she might’ve made.
That’s not how you should act as a 400k-followers Internet personality. People are not divided between fans and antis, and even if they were, they can change their mind. I’d wager more people stopped being her fans over a missed donation than over a guy online spamming that she cheated on him (again, without any decent proof of that).
ah, yes. Such reliable sources of info. I'm sure her antis aren't going into those communities spreading doubt.
I'm not going to tell you "The Trans Community" like her because there is no monolith, but she is respected by many lgbtq+/ally creators, so I'll be deferring to them over randos online. The biggest voices I've heard criticizing her for not making the donation have been anti-woke dramatubers, so I doubt their intentions are so pure. Hell, even Legal Mindset decided to weight in on whether or not Vshojo could fire her based on the assumption that Vshojo doesn't know the full story and before he was originator to the vtuber crowd, he was putting out anti-woke videos criticizing Disney. There is a definite pattern with the loudest voices criticizing her that make me question their motives.
Of course I don’t believe blindly everything I read there. I heard the cheating story multiple times but I always shrugged it off (and will keep on doing it) since there was no proof.
And of course Vshojo can’t fire her for that, it’s not illegal or anything. It’s just a post on twitter, nothing legally binding about it. Still, I think she should’ve given priority to addressing that, instead of baseless rumors about her relationships (which honestly, even if they were true, are none of our business).
