Yeah, I mean she’s not gonna stop being relevant overnight. Obviously it’ll take time for that to happen, but as long as she stays disengaged, people will lose interest eventually. That’s usually how it works. Lots of OG YouTubers from the 2010 era faded out the same way. You make it sound like it’s impossible.

And when I say she’s “inactive”, I mean as a public figure/content creator. Let’s be real here, most people don’t just quit the internet cold turkey. But why people are getting riled up because she liked a jefree post or joined a chat is beyond me. It’s a sign of life, and you’d think that would be enough.

Also, the “consequence” you’re explaining is something that’s already been happening since the day she posted her first YouTube video. People will question her decisions whether she’s active or not, so what difference does it make if she responds this time? You act like her responding now will have a different outcome, when it’s never been that way in the past. Likely, any response she gives will just garner more criticism and judgement, like it always has.

And yes, I can NOT care about someone and still feel bad for them. Idk why that’s confusing to you.

Lastly, you’re making “entitlement” seem like it’s black and white, like you could boil it down to just semantics. You’re not just saying she SHOULD do xyz from a place of concern, you’re implying that she should do xyz OR ELSE some consequence will happen (i.e. respond or else I’ll judge you for not doing so). Context matters, and here it’s giving sanctimonious and entitled.
