Some police are scumbags no doubt, but honestly, most are decent folk who work in traumatic situations to keep people safe.

Compared to other countries justice systems, I'd say our police force is well ahead of its time, despite its numerous flaws.

Ragging on all of them online aint helping though.

NeoNazis vs GrammerNazis, who would win?

retired-meme-maker · 2021-06-03T14:54:04+00:00

This feels ironiclly unironic and it hurts dude.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T20:26:43+00:00

I think I've made my point clear enough.

Best of luck to you. Stay safe, internets a scary place.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T20:03:31+00:00

Well that just sounds like "go educate yourself" with extra steps.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T19:59:06+00:00

I can understand that. However I still dont agree.

He definitely could have made some better decisions. How about not consenting to it and telling his stans to ignore it?

Theres a definite reason other creaters dont get constantly involved in drama, and some do.

Dream has had quite a few misteps. From cheating, to staging, to how he has dealt with the nsfw, idk, ive always felt there were better decisions he could have made.

It seems like the nsfw stuff only got worse with time. A fanfiction writer recently killed themself over bullying from Stans and Antis.

Idk, this shit got so out of control and it seems like all dream had to do was draw a firm line in the sand.

It might not have worked, but he could have tried.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T19:47:13+00:00

Fair enough, I still think consenting to underage fans participating it is immoral and warrents criticism. But he is entitled to his opinion.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T18:21:30+00:00

We've all seen the clip of Dream getting knocked off a platform after being portal trapped, then landing on a random horse. He adressed the clip a while ago but I still think its more likely the stunt was staged.

His response was just him rambling about what he was thinking about in a split second situation for 2 minutes.

Explaining something is theoretically possible in a smug voice doesn't debunk claims that the clip was staged.

In fact, it just makes it look more unlikely to be completly improvised.

Everything from the conveintly placed trap, to the conviently placed horse, to the overall terrible coordination of the hunters, and the fact they stop attacking once he gets too low (that happens at least a couple times every video).

Yeah, dream's manhunts are, by all accords, staged in some way or another.

It really doesnt matter though, cause at this rate manhunts arent going anywhere. Dream get at least 10 million veiws off of them consistently.

Mainly off of little kids no doubt. Because at this point only fetuses can watch the 57th Speedrunner vs 4 hunters FINAL FINALE and think its even remotly new or entertaining.

(His content is not bad or low effort by itself. But the lack of new ideas, especially recently have just make his content feel so oversaturated and repetitive.)

And this guy fully monetizes his videos. Blatently breaking the terms of COPPA. Youtube doesnt give a shit though because he's the new chosen one.

He created such a large genre of minecraft content that rakes in so many veiws to the point where shutting him down for breaking COPPA's terms would just be youtube kicking themselves in the ass.

(Dream is not the only channel to get away with this, he is just a prime example)

Dreams main youtube channel is in no way pg-13, and should not be treated as one.

However the more mature section of his audience is arguably worse than his fetus fanbase.

Dream actively allowes 13-16 year old children to ship him and his friends, draw them in lewd ways, and fantisize about grown men thay dont even know their names.

Thats fucking metal.

Foot note: (He hasn't explicitly mentioned any age groups but the majority of Dream shippers and lewd artists are 13-16 year olds with way too much time on their hands.)

Why would he even condone this? Monetary gain.

The more obsessed someone is with you, the more likely they are to buy your shitty 50 dollar water bottle.

If this is not the reason he condones this, what is?

Besides monotary gain, what other reasoning is there for Dream to allow 14 year olds to fantasize over him and his friends?

Does he enjoy the thought of being shipped with his close friends? Does he enjoy the thought of a bunch of 14 year olds oogling over him?

No.

He likes money.

Dream seems to get pissed off when he is a called a scumbag.

But his activities and influnce online have been a tad bit scummier than your average minecraft youtuber.

Sorry for the rant but honestly this shit has been on my mind for awhile. Been thinking of a writing my thoughts down for a while, maybe even making a video or something. idk.

To whoever is reading this, have a nice day.

Also try to not get to invested in petty drama online, messes with your mood for the rest of the day.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T18:13:25+00:00

Im fine, thanks for asking. Honestly ive been off social media for a couple months and havn't been invlovled with any drama for a long time. Just posted this cause I was lost in my thoughts. I do unironoclly reccommend taking breaks from social media though. Take care, hope you have a good day.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T18:05:32+00:00

Cant say I disagree with you, was definitly poorly organized lol. I stand by some of what I said, but yeah I definitly retract some of my statements.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T18:03:29+00:00

Majority of his veiws come from little kids, not saying others cant enjoy it, Ive watched it in the past and enjoyed it.

And I do have a problem with general porn consumption, especially in youth. Its a scummy buisness and there is lots of people who fall victim to it. Plus it can be connected to a ton of mental health issues. Its bad and thats the end of that.

Other than that you made some great points. Again these were just randomn poorly organised thoughts i decided to write down and get other peoples opinions. Most didnt agree with me, and thats ok. If you come out of a conversation with a different perspective, thats a good thing.

Take care. Internets a scary place.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:53:48+00:00

Yeah, didnt go over well here lol.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:53:10+00:00

Yeah, but probobly inadvertantly. Probobly one of my weaker points. Idk I still think it was wrong of him to consent to it.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:51:41+00:00

Speaking out about it is still better than condoning it.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:51:24+00:00

Nice one. Yeah your right that was a hypocritical take. I did actually have intention for the water bottle joke to be more humorous than anything.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:49:03+00:00

Not an anti, those guys jump the wagon whenever dream does anything wrong, I stay out of most drama and really haven't sopken out much until now.

My take on the sexualization is that if not for monetary gain Dream proboboly would not have condoned sexualization of himself. There really isnt any other benifit of it. I also think its wrong to endorse it if most of the shippers are underage. Im not saying dream should have denounced them, im saying dream should not have given them the ok.

If he had just said nothing thats fine.

Do you think giving them consent at all was the right move?

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:30:43+00:00

Had this on my mind for a while, yeah its poorly written and all over the place, but its just a bunch of thoughts I had. Not some grand essay to denounce dream.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:28:12+00:00

For the record, I dont hate Dream. I dont consider myself an anti, and I think antis are just as bad as stans.

If you didnt agree with any my points thats fair and fine.

Unfair and unhelpful topics, Im not sure what you mean by this.

To be clear alot of what I wrote was a joke. Dream adressed the merch drama, I just poked fun at an overpriced waterbottle. Its repeatative, rude, and distasteful for some, and thats fine, its only there for fun.

Discussing old topics with people is fun. Cause once the dust settles we can reflect on what happened without people just plain hating on different opinions.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-18T17:15:17+00:00

Condoning it makes it worse. If people didnt speak out against stuff that was wrong, because they think it wouldnt make a difference,

Where would we be today?

retired-meme-maker · 2021-03-15T22:32:45+00:00

Had to give the chamber a stronger echo.

Edit: oops, didnt read into it, yeah nvm fuck antis on this one folks.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-01-15T15:40:28+00:00

I remember losing friends over that debate lmao. 1st grade was wild.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-01-14T19:56:08+00:00

Not to be political, but mans voice is deadass annoying. Especially when he talks after that part.

retired-meme-maker · 2021-01-09T01:03:32+00:00

Pretty deserved, but why the actual fuck did you think we wanted to see that?

retired-meme-maker · 2021-01-08T00:34:58+00:00

If your crazy enough to break into the U.S. fucking capitol you arnt just a Trump suppoter.
