One thing I am becoming more conscious of now is that, when people issue ruder, scathing criticism of me, I need to remember that technically I have a larger audience and need to be mindful of saying something in response, or else they might get drowned out.

I hope I have this problem sooner rather than later but in the meantime I'm gonna talk shit.

Some people really will just go on and say rude crap that's untrue about you for hours on end. But you also recognize that, given the size of my platform, even naming them would direct people to hurt them, and I really don't want to do that.

Also, if they're that much smaller, then calling them out will also give them the attention they crave.

This is why I am starting to like you more and more. You are very professional, and you move forward. You keep calm and express opinions as clearly and consciously as you can and move on.

Yeah, I get that. I don't presume to have much of a following on my content, but I do know that if I want to direct my viewers to check out someone else's content, it's because I want to share my audience with others, and not to cause any needless harm.

You have more forgiveness in your heart than I

I get that too. The only times I ever feel like someone being rude to me on the internet was when it was an attempt at a targeted harassment campaign. Otherwise it's not worth my time to call out.

Remember to just block and move on. Do not give them oxygen.

Oh, I'm sorry if you're being targeted by jerks. It really is hard not to give some reply when someone is being stupid and/or rude. You want to retort and be clever against them. When you should just block.

I definitely don’t agree with everything you say, but some of those commenters piss ME off. They act so condescending and entitled even though they can’t refute your points and can barely string together an alternative argument. Bigotry, I can laugh or sigh at; arrogance makes me upset.

I saw a reaction stream last night that was basically "N-no it isn't." The entire time. I wanted to genuinely see a real counter argument to my vid, and all it did was the opposite.

Around hte time the stream started defending Blackface was when I went "Okay, there's nothing of value here."

I don't personally think you have an obligation to protect someone who lies about you and attempts to damage your reputation, but I've never been accused of being particularly nice. That's just self defense in my book.
