streamer bleeEEeEeh is latest example of twitch th0t harassment problem. ~owen wilson wow~
did they just use the T word? tWiTch? hAHA funny.. (omg im dying that was so funny L. O. L.)
i'm purposely censoring the name aAAaAnd the face of this individual because i'm not bringing this up as much as it is for her
more than it is for uh
this article and issue in general.
because daMN OLD MAN OH BAM, it's this article (can you even english?)
*burp*
PAINfully one-sided. FIRST of all,
hEEeAAaAh, this is the photo that they chose to represent this ~individual~
mEANWHILE any article from polygon they'll grab the ugliest (hey thats mean i like her outfit)
screenshot they can find from the video. it's hilarious. like what is this? (i agree) huh?
ALSO, if you google the name of this ~individual~ you get a wiiide
arrangement of diFFErEnt type of photographs.. but of course
there's nothing wrong with this, which is why they chose *THIS* picture *giggle* and not all these other ones. just pure coincidence.. ;)
now i knew this streamer before because of a clip that sort of went viral because she's an IRL streamer and
she was working out at the gym
but she was told by the staff that she can't work-
she can't have her camera face so that she shows other people in the background
but instead she just goes "there's no camera" *giggle* (wow genius)
*inhale* LET'S WATCH
you know stretching is DEFINITELY important. we got no problems with stretching. there's just a lot of stretching going on. (you like that kind of stuff dont you pewds?)
sorry, (its ok) but if i cared about not being doxxed, i would not go to people saying where i live
in fact, i avoid saying where i live at most points, even if it's commonly known. anyway, the staff comes in
Girl: That's why I'm not filming anymore.
Girl: I don't have my camera set up today
Worker: ..Some people just keep complaining about it...
Girl: Who's complaining?
Girl: I don't have my camera set up, like
Are you saying I can't be at the gym?
Worker: No...
Girl: Yeah, I don't have my
Girl: No I'm just--
Girl: No I'm not filming I'm just skyping one of my trainers
*giggle* she doesn't have her camera. just like..
"i'm not recording right now. okay?" what are we watching this through then? (hmmmMMMMM)
i can see the camera right there on your left shoulder. [correction] right shoulder
she keeps saying "i don't have my camera. i'm just skyping my trainer." trainers just sitting there like
"keep stretching. that's right." (you go girl)
Girl: Yeah I'm not filming though I'm just skyping one of my trainers
Did she just say I'm skyping my trainers, is that what she calls her twitch audience? What's up my trainers?
Thanks for watching me workout today
My trainers
So anyway, he runs away he doesn't know how to face this you're not filming she's not filming everybody that's an important distinction here
she's not filming at all live streaming is not the same as filming everyone knows that he's basically playing on the fact that
Technically, yes, live-streaming ioan isn't the same as recording, but they end effect is the same
Girl: Pretty sure..
Cuz I don't have a backpack, I don't have my tripod
I don't have my camera set up
She doesn't have the camera she says that at least a dozen time then guy number two shows up
Guy2: Hey, Excuse me, I know a lot of people have already about this
But..
In regards to the filming and the live-streaming
You're not allowed to do it
Girl:I'm not I don't have my camera
Guy2: You are lying
We have your account open
We know you're live here
Girl: But it doesn't record it.
Guy2: but you are live
It's still the same here
It's still the same deal.
You're on social media..
You have other people around you
The problem here is that other people are working out in the background all she has to do which the guy says as well is
Move to a wall where she doesn't show other people. It's a pretty reasonable
Request but she doesn't back down
Guy2: I know it's not the first time
Girl: Before it's been that I can't have my camera
Guy2: uh-huh
Girl: In here
Guy2: Have you never been told about the live-streaming?
Girl: No, they said don't have your camera in here
Girl: Before they said it's fine if it's more focused on me
Guy2: yes if it's only you or yourself and you're against a wall where nobody else is filmed, it's fine
Girl: So you want me to be up against a wall?
And then the big boss shows up Caitlin Caitlin
Girl2: Caitlin
Girl2: you gotta shut it off
Girl2: so either...
Girl2: you don't film here anymore or...
Girl: What is wrong with myself? I don't understand.
I think I'm being phone harassed
cuz it's like, I don't even have my camera here
Don't have my camera here. Oh, really?
Yeah, she pulls up the livestream. I don't have my camera. Oh, really?
Just move to a wall it's not that big a deal
Girl: ...feel uncomfortable though
Why did you say it was fine?
Girl2: what I said was...
Girl2: I've actually had your followers call and--
Girl: That's what I'm saying, I'm being phone harassed!
That's the thing.
That's the thing I'm being phone harassed other people are calling you guys so I'm being harassed
She's trying to divert to the fact that a lot of times when IRL streamers go to certain places
The people in watching the livestream will harass that place and keep calling in to annoy and get that person kicked out
So she's trying to make it seem like that's the problem when they mentioned it many times. Just don't film other people
Girl: I'm just gunna leave.
Girl: I'll go to a gym who is more understanding of their members careers
Girl: I'll just leave
Girl: I'm leaving the establishment
Girl: ok?
I get it. Sometimes you face confrontation
You don't want to admit that you're wrong. So you act like an idiot and this time it was on camera
It can happen to anyone
Okay
And it's not the end of the world, but most people know this streamer because of this clip and I find it interesting
How polygon doesn't mention this video anywhere in
This article obviously they don't have to mention it
But again Google any article of polygon with me in it, and you'll be damn sure
they'll bring up my entire history feed and most news articles do this why the different treatment now the main reason for
This polygon article isn't because of this clip. So it's again fine fine
I just find it interesting
the main reason for this article and the main reason she's getting harassed is because
Streamer bla-bla-bla has been hiding her marriage to keep donations rolling in from ell of the day again
Polygon's article never mentions this at least beyond a rumor about her being married
Therefore hinders that relationship because her audience who has built a relationship
with her feels cheated still she isn't responsible to disclose her relationship and then saying that you know
The people that harass her are just trolls and no feeling empowered to use degrading misogynistic
insults when situation like this occur and
Polygon and the stream are saying that people don't donate to me because they think it improves their chances with me in a in some
romantic way that's just isn't true
and I love this because not even polygons own commenters agrees with the state in the articles, which I I've never seen before
The top one saying people in particular young men absolutely do this
It's stupid and delusional and she can't be blamed for some of her fans misunderstanding
How real life relationships work
But pretending it doesn't happen at all is a smidge disingenuous this leading to that
The comments was shut down on the article because it was just too much
Senior editor Ben Kuchera saying there hasn't been a single
Stand-alone common in here that doesn't focus on criticism of the victim. Not one. I'm shutting it down victim
Interesting choice of words as long as you're a victim you're not allowed to be criticized senior editor polygon everybody
Absolute Saint what a hero now. Don't get me wrong. I don't agree with people being harassed, but you think I've never gotten harassed?
you think I will get the same treatment from polygon and
essentially this whole article is the same thing as the biased one that blatantly called me a sexist then ignore all the issues that
Alinity had done because as long as you're a victim
You're not allowed to be criticized and all the bad behavior gets brushed aside
She isn't responsible for the perceived relationship her subscribers have with her. I agree.
I agree with both statement from this article, but here's the thing
polygon is
deliberately bending the truth
just enough to get their argument across when really you look at the other side of things and
The whole thing falls apart and I'll demonstrate
People don't donate to me because they think it improves their chances with me in some romantic way
That doesn't mean she is required to disclose everything even if a rumor is true
She's entitled to play into a role on Twitch if she wishes I mean again, I kind of have to agree
She she doesn't have to tell people
That she is in a relationship and I don't necessarily believe that
Everyone that donates to this person does it because they hope to improve their romantic chances in some way like that's ridiculous
So it looks like they have a pretty strong argument here. Right? Well, here's the problem
She didn't hide that she was in a relationship. She
Blatantly lied about not being an a relationship
And not just in a relationship. She's married, but then there's clips of her saying this
Girl: ...I'm single
So again, if she
Doesn't get donations because of romantic hopes from fans. Why does she lie about being married?
Feel free to answer me polygon
I would love to know what you have to say about that. If you don't want to tell people they earn in relationship
I'm absolutely fine with that and I would never assume that someone donates or
Whatever just because of some romantic way, but why would she lie about her marriage then?
I don't care if she shows up her body and she gets donation. That way I don't care if she lies to get more money
it's just walking the line of
Pretending that you don't know what you're up to and even lying saying no this doesn't happen at all
People don't donate because they hope some romantic chance with me. People know that's not true
Polygons commentators knows that's not true and they may not
Outright say it, but I know that they know it but sometimes they do say it
Sometimes they think the live stream is off when it isn't and certain things comes out like this female streamer
aAaaAAaHhh
The twitchy girls shriek of Terror
Raynella
I got $40 from a couple weirdos, I just make so much money doing nothing
This brings me to my final points. Yes. We are at the end everybody but to the most important conclusion
Falling on and twitch are both gaming websites
and in my opinion they are both hurting female streamers female gamers in particular because if they cared about female gamers they wouldn't
Constantly brush aside all the issues and bad behavior
They wouldn't constantly look away and give free passes
It's creating more and more uproar from the same people at the bottom line
It's hurting actual decent female streamers that just want to be taken seriously
Because they get grouped in with these other eat streamers or whatever
You want to call them in my opinion not all of them?
But a lot of them are just more interested in making a buck through parasocial
relationships but if you criticize them you are a sexist just like vice called me blatantly in their headline and in my opinion
Media a lot of times care more about throwing labels around controlling
Ideas rather than fixing actual problems that they're pretending to be
Rioting for or fighting for and if you don't believe me take it from another twitch streamer
whatever she's doing it's whatever but I do feel like it's
There's dreamers like who don't do those things
because I get called like an e-girl or a thot and I feel like it's undeserving and I feel like
People are like this now
because of
What's going on?
Well, I don't know if that's true it's just how I feel
or what i think
It for this video one like equals one copy strike
Hope you guys enjoyed I would love to hear your comments and thots on this. See you tomorrow
