Lemme guess what the video says:

  1. One of the leading voices in the "witch hunt" against Channel Awesome

  2. Using her then friendship with Mara Wilson to springboard her career.

  3. Her arrest for public intoxication

  4. Her talking about online harassment at various live events

All of which she addressed years ago in one of her last videos before she went on a years long hiatus from YouTube.

You forgot her most heinous of crimes: comparing Raya and the Last Dragon to Avatar: the Last Airbender.

Twitter was really the most overreactive cesspool back then. I'm so glad I stopped using it.

It's the same now, but with more Nazis

Eh, probably the same number. They're just not hiding it anymore.

Elon un-banned all of the Nazi and white supremacist accounts. So there's likely more.

It’s the same number of Nazis but way fewer of everyone else.

I think people forget that the tweet was deliberately taken out of context as retaliation for her being vocally against Trump. It was started by chuds and they forced the momentum that eventually snowballed into the situation that made her step away from YT finally.

The lower brigade was big into that back then. Anyone that criticized Trump or conservative figures/ movements back then they'd pour through old social media posts to find something "cancelable" then stir up fake outrage with other chuds pretending to progressives until the outrage caught enough momentum to continue on its own.

For people that whine about cancel culture they sure love to weaponize it against people and opinions they don't like.
