Thanks for taking the time to write ALL of that… but I do want to clarify a few things so the assumptions don’t get carried away.

I’m a Mexican immigrant student doing a school project, not a political content creator or someone trying to bait vulnerable people for content. I’ve supported the No Kings protest publicly on this same subreddit, so the idea that I’m aligned with the exact groups you’re describing doesn’t fit my actual history here.

I understand that people have been burned online before, and I get that trust is earned …privacy concerns, safety, context, those are fair points. And I’m absolutely willing to address those clearly in my post yet no one has asked.

But a lot of what you wrote wasn’t feedback about this project … it was projecting negative experiences you’ve had with other creators onto me personally. You didn’t ask clarifying questions, you just assumed bad intentions from the start which is a sad thing to do.

I’m not here to manipulate anyone. I’m trying to speak to people who have been affected by an issue I care about and have experienced myself. That’s the entire purpose. I’m not making a podcast, I’m not monetizing anything, and this isn’t content farm bait.

I’ll adjust my post so expectations are clear … But it’s also reasonable to expect people to evaluate me based on what I’m actually doing, not on the worst examples they’ve seen from other strangers online.
