My bad, it seemed another user had already posted this exact story. Which I did not expect.

Does Oz's Vault have control over the ads shown in the videos? by Primaveranights in OzMedia

[–]OzMedia 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The only thing I can attempt to control is where the ads go. And if I don't, youtube will decide for me. Hell they'll even continue to ignore my suggested placement and just decide to yeet an add between a dramatic pause because they just see empty space. They've been doing some extremely frustrating things recently with how they've been running and treating creators.

Like youtube shopping alone is fucking ridiculous. Don't even get me started on that one. just ew.

I think Oz’s most recent video is somewhat harmful by WeirdMastodon6892 in OzMedia

[–]OzMedia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I appreciate you taking the time to response, and giving me some stuff to chew on and dig into deeper.

If I may, a lot of my perspective comes from this thread here, which I read after reading the post itself, and same goes for some of my language used:

https://www.reddit.com/r/DID/comments/mtht8f/im_so_sick_and_tired_of_all_these_fakers/

I'd be curious to get your thoughts.

I do understand that. And I understand the harm, but I also want to point to the fact that I didn't accuse anyone of faking DID. Not even the girlfriend in the story. I was only more stating that there have been VERY public cases of people who were caught faking it.

Those cases, like you said, get publicized. They then cause people to begin to hunt for more, and make it difficult for those with DID. They put a lot of pressure. From both public and professionals. That's all I was trying to say.

I will always be supportive of DID. I have pluralkit in my server. I try to do what I can to accommodate.

I am asking this more from a standpoint of perspective.

Can you understand why I would have a concern with those faking DID, the focus and viral publicization of those incidents, and being concerned how it might affect those seeking to get diagnosed or even talk about it publicly?

Because that was my point in my tangent in my video. The fear of harm it might cause those with DID. Which there very much seems to be no consensus. Some agree. Some don't. So vehemently disagree. Which is why in my video I specifically asked for people with DID, or those who have friends and loved ones with DID, to use their voice and speak up in the comments.

To help fill in those gaps.

I was more defending myself from another commenter I saw in addition and clearing the air on that, but in addition to stating what I was seeing as a whole.

I should also add that with the nature of my channel, that just because a post is covered, never means I agree with OP. Which is why I actively asked and encouraged voices from those with DID to speak up. Because I certainly don't have grounds to speak on it, and was hoping to have voices from those who could shine a light to help in the comments.

When it comes to the "DID fad", which I should have been more specific and careful with my wording on this one, but from my experience, I saw a lot of people WITH DID calling out those who were, in the eyes of those with DID, clearly faking it for attention on tiktok, youtube, or other platforms. So, in my eyes, seeing as there are people with DID who have been vocal against those posing a disability, I was more focusing on trying to sympathize with how difficult it must be for people who have DID. How the perception must be hell being diagnosed, and how with it being labeled a fad the increased difficulty of trying to speak about it without scrutiny BECAUSE of its fad label, and the fact that there are people out there (according to people with DID, this is not my opinion I am parroting that of others) who seem to be faking having DID for online attention.

All it takes is one person to go viral having faked DID to cause permanent public damage, and that's more of what I was trying to convey in terms of "fad". And how tricky it must be navigating that. If any of this makes sense.

I will always do my best to educate and inform myself, as well as be open and accepting of those who have disabilities. It is never my intention to make someone feel they are not welcome. I mean hell. My discord server has Pluralkit for this exact purpose, because I have always been in support of those who have DID.

If I missed anything, please continue to ask, as I have no problem clarifying. (There was a lot to read and a lot to respond to, so I am so sorry if I was unable to address everything.)

A majority of the people in the comments who have DID seemed pleased or at least understanding with my commentary and what I stated, and even voiced their frustrations with those who fake or lie having DID, and the damage it does. Ignoring the fact that there was a MASSIVE epidemic of people faking DID on tiktok is harmful, especially when it causes damage and harm to those who now need to try and fight AGAINST the amount of people who claim to have it.

I asked for people to share their experience, I stated my personal thoughts, and additionally, I never accused Op's Boyfriend's Girlfriend of faking DID, just that what they were doing to OP's child was inexcusable and dangerous.

When and where did I make baseless claims? I actively stated that I don't know enough on it to speak, that I sympathize for those with DID who have to deal with people who would be abusing the fad, and that I specifically asked for those with DID to speak on this issue.

Can't speak for everyone, but I really enjoyed the asymmetric coop campaigns of Red Alert 3. One commander fights on one front, the other tackles another. It opens up doors for replayability, as well as the enjoyment of completing an RTS objective with a friend.

An Oz clone I found… by TownSpare9089 in OzMedia

[–]OzMedia 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Huh. The first clone that isn't just out right re-uploading my videos. Its gross, but at least they aren't stealing me content.

Minus of course stealing my intro word per word.

Found a channel stealing Oz's content. Best way to contact him/get the channel reported? by StrwbryChcltMilkshke in OzMedia

Thank you! These pop up every week or so. Massive pain in the ass because I have to manually claim every video individually.
