TGWTG Nostalgia Chick / Lindsay Ellis / TheDudette - aka Hotdogs in face girl

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I simply love the fact that someone who now has carte blanche to literally do nothing but seethe and drink while pulling in 10k a month is still miserable.
This is what kills me about this latest little performance of hers. All she had to do was swallow her pride, say "yeah I fucked up, apologies," and then let it go. But that would be too easy I guess, so instead she torques herself up into a blood-shitting crisis and torpedoes her entire brand (such as it was). Rather than just learn a lesson about engaging with the Twitter mob and move on with her life. Utterly contemptible.
 
Also, can someone explain to me how she needed eight people to do what she did?
That's 8 people including dependents. She employed Angelina as a writer/editor, who has a kid and male partner, and also Elisa as an assistant, who has two kids and a husband. They were only part time but she paid their health care and salary. Number 8 was some behind the scenes editor maybe, an Asian woman who went with her, Contra and Jenny to Vegas a while back. Could be wrong on that last one though.

Elisa is married to Paw who makes a decent living mixing and editing podcasts through his own company. No one is going to starve, even if the paypigs close their wallets.
 
So everyone's already pointed out that this is hypocritical and she's dumb etc.

But separately, I 100% believe that she's traumatized by the dog she fed biting her. She's been in the wokesphere so long that she has no mental schema that can help her step back and tell them all to fuck themselves with confidence. Taking a vacation from the Internet is a great, mentally healthy thing to do. She was long overdue and I hope she touches some great grass.
I suppose, but it needs to be pointed out she got off very lightly with that first cancellation. I must have seen more angry defense of her than people bashing. It stands to reason that she was blindsided by "her kind" turning on her, but then you need to realize just how few of them actually did, and she was still "traumatized" over it. Her hillbilly genes obviously made her predisposed to "trauma".
 
She still has over eight-thousand patrons, so I doubt her leave will be permanent or last longer than half-a-year. My guess is that she'll try to ride it out the good old Spoony-way, and only come back once the well starts to dry out in May/June.
8,000 people paying $1+ a month and she's "not wealthy".

Fuck this bitch is retarded.
 
Let's assume she's genuine and not just on a bender. Will she be able to have her patreon up without doing anything to warrant it? Obviously people like Spoony and Lowtax did that for years, but they never had more than a hundred bucks or so coming their way and weren't important enough for the site to care about. If she really does fuck all for several months while raking in the money of well over 10k people, will the site have to enforce its own rules on inactivity or has it gotten to Facebook levels of ignoring its own rules?
 
This despicable hag deserves every scrap of this, and more.

Ellis and her autistic supporters were the ones that repeatedly, throughout 2014 and beyond, massive forced politicization of every platform they were in contact with, most notably Channel Awesome, and forced them - let me repeat this - forced them - through accusations, leveraging pressure, and straight-out intimidation - to back the political horses they chose, or face the possibility of being pressured out. Parts of the #ChangeTheChannel campaign were specifically brought about by this happening, and the significant downturn in CA content directly connected to so many of them going full-bore into Twitter sperging and political pandering was a direct consequence of them doing this.

They were a major contributing factor in everything from Spoony's self-destruction to the cover up of JewWario's sex offenses.

To writ: Ellis' goons specifically had a hand in killing every single platform they were remotely attached to that wanted to do anything but sperg about politics. They actively made shit worse. They were, at the time, involved in shit significantly more heinous than any harassment they claimed to whine about to demonetize and shut down voices that pushed for not giving a shit, let alone ones who believed in opposition viewpoints. They cultured an audience specifically so they could weaponize it, and when the rabid shitheads they cultured inevitably came for them, as everyone warned them it would, for years of real time, their response was to whine and play the victim. Not once was there a scrap of remorse for the awful, awful shit they had done in the name of their "cause," not once was there an acknowledgement that this had been entirely due to their own actions, or that anything they had ever done had been wrong.

Ellis and her supporters were - and still are - fucking poison. They have never accomplished anything but destroying anything they come into contact with, and it's poetic justice that she self-destructed. Good fucking riddance.

(slow clap) Somebody else gets it.

For all the claims Lindsay isn't a major lolcow... every awful pop culture trend for much of the past decade, she has either been near the tip of the spear, or its biggest cheerleaders.

So rare do we get to see the ones leading the mob or creating the monsters get consumed by them.

Savor every second of this victory, because that is what this is.

This bitch makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in donations in exchange for very little content creation, and she complains that her life is over. Get over it.

No wonder people claim Ellis is a genius. Just look at that number of morons keep rising.

"I quit! But if you don't keep giving me money, I'll lay off my groupies/employees/friends right after Christmas. Do you want to be responsible for putting that vampire chick and my sister in law out of work?"

And this is why its not over yet... this is another attempt to stave off the inprogress decline. Pad the Patreon numbers, no longer have to make videos and explain thier poor performance, maybe boost the failing book sales, or get favorable press for the first time in ages.

I hope the implosion and decline continues, because this desperate display is likely an attempt to at least stem the bleeding if not delay the inevitable.
 
Does anyone think this is 100% just her being an enormous fucking crybaby that couldn't hang and nothing more than that or could it possibly be some sort of cultural tipping point in either direction where the Twitter twats take a step back and realize that in their overzealous wokeness they cannibalized an sjw priestess or will they just completely double-down on policing everyone, with a new spotlight shown especially on white sjw women to ensure they're being good allies? I'm predicting the latter. And because a ton of these "wokescolds" are actually just trannies, it's going to have the unintended consequences of turning a bunch of sjw women into full blown terfs when they start to get sick and tired of a bunch of faggot MEN controlling their lives. Mark my words... This is the beginning of The Neo Vag Wars.
 
Lindsay is sad because the world she helped build rejected her. The behemoth she made, this inquisitional, psychotic, victim hierarchal bullshit she helped push forward ate her.

She can't go on even though she's technically fine (Contrapoints is still making vids!) because she can't live with this. The world she wanted to see came, and it hates her. That contradiction is tearing her apart. She has 2 paths forward. She either rejects the world she helped push and become more reactionary, or she dies in despair from alcohol poisoning or something.
Only a matter of time until they did, In 2021 leftest sphere she is a fossil from 2014. Her audience was millennial cis woman. The troons, non-binary zoomer Aidens don't watch her content, and they don't see her as one of them but old problematic millennial cringe, If Anita was still a thing she would suffer a similar fate. Kind of like the Stalinist purging out the old Bolsheviks if you think about it.
 
So this is a total diversion to cover up the fact her sequel book bombed right? She easily could've spun this into "off to be a full-time writer, bye!" but she never even mentions it.

Or maybe it's a mid-life crisis. She's probably been around a few nieces and nephews at Christmas and is feeling broody.

Either way, as the prototypical woke mean girl it's just peachy to see her in this cannibalized state.
 
Difference is, she's affluent enough to quit, take a cruise to the Bahamas, and then come back, telling everyone that she won't let DA HATURZ win and she'll let her voice be heard or some shit.
Exactly.

Lindsay 'I am so dirt-poor' Ellis is raking in about ten grand a month - okay, hardly Rockefeller territory, but a damn sight more than a lot of 40-hour-a-week supermarket workers or office clerks make in that time, purely for farting something pretentious out on YouTube once or twice a month.

She's lived a life of considerable, largely unwarranted privilege and pissed most of it away. I really do hope that she's gone from social media for good, but I very much doubt it.

For now, though, let me enjoy the taste of her tears of unfathomable sadness.
 
I don't really get it. I really don't. This all started because she had an opinion on characters from The Last Airbender?
She said one animated piece of media designed for children was similar to another animated piece of media designed for children, then used the word "squint". That's literally what started this. But somehow, she doesn't realize she's inculcated this insanity from the beginning. Even Robespierre, when the murderous mob he himself created turned on him. didn't pretend like he had no idea why he was being victimized.
