I need to leave the goddamn apartment and meet some real people, and make some friends. Not allies. I don't need any more goddamn allies. I need friends, you know, people who like me for me, and not just because we happen to be on the same team at this precise moment.
This is the best piece of advice I can give to aspiring YouTubers: your audience are not your friends. They are spectators. Their love is highly contingent. The moment you fuck up you're dead to them. They do not love you. They love an idea of you.

It's going to take a while for me to get over this breakup (with an imaginary partner). I'm going to have to slowly reinvest my emotional energy in other people, other networks.
And until I do that, I'm not agreeing to anymore goddamn debates. That's done. I'll do the Vancouver one, because I've agreed to that, and I'll do my damnedest to make the most of it. But no more after that. My heart can't take the backlash anymore.
If you're a conservative looking for someone to debate here's my advice: find some arrogant Ivy League cis guy with the emotional support of his debate club buddies. Put him on stage. This is not for me. I'm staying at home.
As for me I've got to go download Tinder or something. Start adopting cats. Whatever the thing is.

yeah that can't be said enough. I'm sorry you had to learn it the hard way :(
I'm glad I could be a spectator to your content. You gained my respect for the ideas you bring up and how you present them which has made me see new perspectives I'm sorry you've had to deal with all of the backlash and I hope you find the friends you'd like to be with!
Yes. This is something that I learned as an artist. Criticism can be nice and sometimes valuable. But the intentions behind the criticism can be just as important. Just like art. Even if it's true, some criticism is only given with the intention to harm. And that is pure poison.
