The baseball part becomes an actual rant. LOL!! Not a baseball fan, either.

Ugh. Baseball live is rough for me. I'm pretty into it for the National Anthem, but after that... it's all beer and hotdogs. And a baseball game is long enough that by the end of it, it's about evacuating the beer and churning guts from the hotdogs. It's just far too slow.....

Sorry, I felt compelled to chime in on the Person A/Person B thing. I (hopefully obviously) appreciate your perspective and sensitivity to the personal dynamics and stuff; especially your kindhearted view toward the fact that there are people involved when sides get taken and lines get drawn. But the thing is that it does appear to me that a lot of content creators actually do have agendas or are actually seeking to forward their perspectives, which inherently makes people draw lines in the sand over it.

Alvin Cura

One of the things I have always appreciated about your reactions (and even this rant video, the first I've watched) is that you are actually quite conversational. I mean, I can picture you conversing over a coffee. And among friends (or at least people of goodwill), differing viewpoints don't need to suddenly result in throwing down gauntlets. But not everyone is that way. I honestly do think that some folks are out to forward their perspectives on others. What you called "being right" at the beginning of the video.

Alvin Cura

So yeah, it's toxic for people to draw battle lines over what should be a private dispute... But how many content creators are actually neutral and generous in sharing their viewpoints, and how many are actually trying to get their way in the first place?

Great rant video, I really enjoyed it :) As for the topic, I am a believer that if someone does something extremely problematic, like make racist jokes, or call women horrible stuff, or assault someone, I, personally, can't tell myself "oh well, they're only human, everyone makes mistakes" because, if it's a celebrity, or someone well known with a fanbase, I do feel they have a voice and power to have their fandom act a certain way, and they can influence their audience to act a certain way (which is why I tend to stay away from channels like h3h3, filthyfrank, keemstar, etc), and there is also the matter of everyone does have feelings and their own personal story, and when a person makes a rude joke or something insensitive, it does affect that 1%. And if that person who makes the joke is unapologetic and doesn't care who it affects, then, although I don't think their entire platform should be deleted and they should disappear forever into oblivion, I do feel they should have some sort of (whether big or small) consequence. Whether it's an apology, or a talk by the people who they've affected. However, I do recognize that there are people who make jokes like that on accident, meaning no ill will at all, and completely apologetic and sincere, and unfortunately there are people who, regardless how sorry that person was, attack and try to destroy that person's life. There was an artist who was drawing a game about males into females, but one of the characters was unique compared to all the others, and the artist drew that character like the others, and a whooooole bunch of people got furious and completely attacked that person. And even to this day, you see the occasional tweet saying "DELET UR TWITTER" which I think is really toxic and should also stop. So for me, it really is 50/50. Some people should be called out, and some make legitimate mistakes and are still destroyed, and that is wrong as well sorryfornovellength

Of course people should stand up for what they believe in but there's a way to go about it as a civilized human being without knocking someone in the process or putting someone down in the way many ppl do just to get their point across or put ppl down for being like "Well your opinion sucks and this is why you should listen to mine" or something which a lot of people do...A lot of people are just straight up unaware and disconnected when it comes to sympathizing with others and I think that stems from a lot of it. PS Baseball does suck..

First thought: Facebook channel page - v. good idea - somewhere for your fans to chat and share meme's that's more permemant than YT video comments - just need to get some badass moderators to clamp down hard on political stuff. You think baseball is dull? Cricket is broadly the same as baseball, only a game can go on for five days and still end in a draw.

I SO agree with you! Totally get what you're saying. It's my biggest issue with social media and just the Internet in general. I think because of the anonymity and disconnect of the Internet, it's so easy to completely disregard the fact that it's a real person on the other end with real feelings and a real life we know absolutely nothing about. People are just sitting behind screens typing and have nothing to connect them to the reality that it's a living human being they're typing about/to. Even if we have video or pictures of said human beings, they're still just two-dimensional images on a screen. "These are people!" is something I constantly feel like begging people to consider. I have seen so many situations such as you described that make me extremely sad for everyone involved. It's like a virtual mob. It starts spreading, and people who have no idea of the situation and aren't even familiar with the people involved jump in and start attacking just based off what other people are saying. I'm highly empathetic, so it just breaks my heart, quite literally. Yes, we should stand up for what we believe in, but there's a way to do so and even just to express opinions that still respects and values the other people involved as PEOPLE and doesn't leave them feeling like less than nothing. There's even a way to confront or correct someone, if the situation calls for it, while still respecting them as a person and not turning it into a lynch mob. I just have to remember that the people doing the attacking or spouting thoughtless opinions are real people as well, and I don't know anything more about them than they know about the people they're being unkind to. Sorry for the mini-rant in reply! I'm super passionate about this topic too!

Just to touch on this again I just remembered a great quote by Martin Luther King Jr ... "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

Social media exists to be SOCIAL. Unfortunately for many it has become a sport, and a bloodsport at that. Anybody with a keyboard can become a sniper, it is not hard, really any idiot can do it. Those who get carried away with keeping score (views/subs) have really lost the point of the whole thing. The quantity of your interactions is simply less important than the quality of your interactions.

Sorry it took so long for me to reply to this!! I kinda disappeared from the internet for awhile. (Long story) Firstly, I want to say that it's really cool that my suggestion won and I really enjoyed this rant/topic. I totally agree with you. Kindness is one the most important qualities we can have. Many people talk about how kindness brings people together. If we're only gonna have one quality in life, let it be kindness. We don't know the entire story of people's lives. The least we can do is just be kind to them, even the people who hurt us. Be the bigger person and be kind to them.
