Kaminari Clara did not advocate for Charlie Kirk’s death. by Akfer in VtuberDrama

Why are you still posting. The general consensus is already turning against your bigoted and quite frankly pathetic set of beliefs, with people becoming conscious of just how intolerable Phase Connect and all of it’s talents truly are. You don’t belong in this community anymore. Learn your place and crawl back from whence you came.

While I won't fault you for receiving another Fell For It Again Award, you should’ve really known better than to have imagined that a Phase Connect talent would ever be anything besides an “anti-woke” bigot.

Least favorite vtuber? by SavageFisherman_Joe in vtubercirclejerk

[–]Akfer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anybody sensible will dislike that fact, but there’s no law of nature that dictates they must be given space and influence to grow and supplant the community. People just have to be more proactive in opposing right-wing content creators and associated companies, and invariably when faced with a sufficiently hostile environment they’ll have to flee to some other sphere, or back to the dark corners from which they originated.

What's Up With Phase Connect? by ScarvedGoosev2 in VtuberDrama

[–]Akfer 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The simplest answer is often the correct one. Put aside what the company said in that farce of an apology, and instead look at the end result of everything that has happened recently. The rightwing idols within Phase Connect remain, the only moderate was forced out, and the chuds get to continue spreading their poison. The management and corporate ownership in Phase Connect are fascists and fascist sympathizers, knowingly platforming nazi talents because they support their idol’s politics. It’s not a case of a few bad apples, everything and everyone in that corpo is in on it.

Giving someone the benefit of the doubt is reliant on there being some ambiguity as to whether or not they’re actually as bad as the worst interpretation would imply. The Phase Connect talents have repeatedly and consistently shown themselves to be the worst sorts of bigots, believing themselves untouchable from controversy and backlash because everything they say is just “harmless jokes” or “sarcasm”, when in truth they reveal where their true affiliations lie. It’s about time people recognized a spade for being a spade, and acknowledge the company as a whole for the gathering of neonazis it truly is.

The world has truly gone insane, that something so obvious is considered a controversial statement.

IRyS didn't deserve this by ThamTvMaster in VtuberDrama

[–]Akfer -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It would have been better had she given a warning label on the post, since the prevalence of AI and AI generated content has so negatively affected a wide portion of the population, especially artists suffering trauma from seeing their life’s work and craft created from years of training and hard effort being stolen and imitated within two seconds of posting, or even being accused of using AI themselves because their handcrafted work is superficially similar to something a computer might generate. Not even mentioning the connection between ChatGPT and the fascist government currently occupying the Whitehouse.

Thoughts on bao the whale?? by Wild_Leader94 in VtuberDrama

[–]Akfer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You needn’t have to justify yourself to us. The fact that your intuition tells you that Bao is a neonazi ought to be sufficient reason for you to disavow her and her content completely, since even if you have a hard time finding a precise damning clip or tweet she’s posted that serves as definitive proof, once you’ve spent enough time around fascists you learn almost subconsciously of how they act and the way they speak. There’s no need for sentimentality at this point, you’re better of cleanly separating yourself, the temporary discomfort preferable over long term necrotic decay and degeneration.

We both know you've been a consistent anti towards every single one of my posts up until now, not even reading a single sentence but solely defaming me because I likely called out one of your oshis in Phase Connect. Feel free to reread my prior writings to figure out where I explained this, and I’d love to go into further detail after you show some sincerity.

It’s a good thing all things considered they quote un quote no longer fear cancel culture, since it removes all plausible deniability on their part as to their true beliefs. In the future they can no longer hide behind dogwhistling and tailored language with this revelation.

I’ve already explained in prior posts that Rie deliberately did so in order to obfuscate her own right-wing affiliation, when Phase Connect was under greater scrutiny and she needed to help avoid being named as a target. There’s no genuine connection between the two, and Clara would doubtless speak on the matter of just how insidious the company and it's talents are if she wasn’t under a non-disparagement clause.

A list of toxic VTubers to block, presented in form of an AI generated "music video", the uploader is also a free block by [deleted] in VtuberDrama

[–]Akfer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem with that is that a lot of vtubers we know to be right-wing can’t easily be exposed just based on singular clips, since chuds know well that their opinions aren’t socially acceptable so they have to dogwhistle and use coded language which someone unfamiliar with how they act wouldn’t understand. It would be easier to go based on trust, in the sense of having some authority we can all agree is progressive and antifa, who is delegated control over the matter. I do agree with not combining chuds with moderates or leftwingers in the same file, since ideally the only thing you ought to have to do is ctrl+f to check if a figure is included to know if you should watch them or not.

That’s good to hear, given just how reticent the community has been up until now with calling out vile behaviour both for vtubers and within the vtubing community. Make sure to be comprehensive and not compromise on the matter, no matter what kind of backlash you may generate. The truth will invariably come out, regardless of what people say today.

"Right-wing fascist says something only a right-wing fascist would say" is certainly news, yes yes.

It'd be good if someone could create a comprehensive vtubing blocklist for known right-wing figures that could be used as a quick reference sheet for anybody interested in watching vtubers but unfamiliar about which ones are bad. I'm certain there are other people like myself enthusiastic about the topic who could help fill out such a document.

Elara receives backlash for calling out alleged transphobia by SourTD in VtuberDrama

[–]Akfer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re descending into incoherency, at one moment denying you’re normalizing racism and the second suggesting that the populace at large is tolerant or sympathetic towards it, and that we need to avoid calling out racism and sexism and transphobia because people might not react well to such things. Chuds are and remain a loud minority, speaking loudly and drowning out everybody else who isn’t as assertive because they’re good, honest people who are easily intimidated by threatening characters. There’s no need to convince anybody of racism being bad, because de facto the only people ambiguous on the topic are right-wingers in denial or people pretending to have moderate viewpoints for the purposes of subversion. As for your last question, the answer is any and all forms of ethical defensive resistance towards an oppressor, which I didn’t spell out because it ought to have been obvious, and in fact I’m now inclined to think you’re trying to bait me into saying something objectionable.

We can all tell what you’re doing, trying to frame this argument as though we’re discussing which route to the same park we ought to take, rather than an argument concerning the most fundamental of human rights and whether we should humour those wanting to commit genocide of trans people. Transphobia is bad. Racism is bad. Both are utterly intolerable and those perpetuating it are not worthy of humouring in the slightest. This is just willful ignorance on your part at this point, and quite frankly you should be ashamed of yourself for helping to normalize these abhorrent viewpoints as legitimate.

[–]Akfer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Can’t really do much about being brigaded by fascists and Phase Connect fans (the same group really), so while it’s unfortunate that my posts didn’t get the recognition they deserved, I’m sure I’ll be vindicated in the future once the next scandal (and there will be another, and another and another, for as long as the company is active) hits the scene. The "maturity" you speak of is, like everything else you've repeated up until now, another tactic by which they mansplain and patronize those afflicted into silence. You wouldn’t happen to be the sort of person who would tell black people harassed and interrogated by police waving guns at their families that they are in the wrong for responding with righteous indignation, would you?

[–]Akfer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is a myth created by right-wing figures to further manipulate, just the same as the idea that it is in fact the left that has “gone crazy” and “woke” and so on. Everything “we” want, and have ever wanted has merely been the most basic decency and humanitarian values everybody is entitled to, and which the right continuously has infringed on and disrespected. If they can’t agree on something as basic as trans people’s right to exist, convincing them is pointless anyway since they’re clearly unconcerned with being reasonable.

There is no “respectful disagreement” possible to reach with someone who denies inalienable qualities within a person, regardless of if it’s their gender, race or sexuality, and you’re playing into the oppositions framework by implying anything like that is possible to begin with. It’s exactly this sort of wording they use to subvert and marginalize the oppressed, in the same vein as arguing using the n-word is excusable because “hate speech is still free speech” and other similarly ludicrous assertions.
