You have to separate the actors in this and the audience. Those people in the audience trying to use the current popularity of these streams to pimp their own brand is a problem. It's like any other instance, these people should be starting off building off their own talent, but instead they want to capitalize off a movement for insta-success. Then the people who are e-begging with their own go fund me's in chat, most of those people are likely able to make it on their own but are trying to capitalize off the generosity of Istandwithvic donators to get free Gibs.Okay. It should live and die with the outcome of Vic's case. Or, at least, after a brief celebration and a few victory laps.
The only ones who will cling to it is KickVic, who will try to 9/11 it for years to come. Never forget, fellow kids.
These people in the audience who are jumping up to get involved like they are will be a problem. At some point they need to put their foot down and just flat out say "we won't read your super chats if you are trying to self promote or e-beg". Vic's case is an entirely separate entity to the social movement that is going on in this thread, on twitter, facebook, youtube, etc. Vic's case can be won and the #Istandwithvic movement still die. The movement itself already has infighting, Nick Rekeita has already had to have a stream where he addressed the infighting and criticism, they claimed to talk to "former GG" people who are advising them on what not to do yet they are heading down that course, they have absolute brainlets like TUG and Yellow Flash as bigger members of their social movement, you have a weird double standard from the entire pro-vic group where they really support KiwiFarms but hate doxing and more stuff.
I think anybody who is giving this movement that much optimism and deference is emotionally compromised but either some like of the characters in the pro-vic side or Vic himself and are choosing to ignore things. Once again separating the court case itself from this social movement. ( I honestly should have to reiterate this point a second time, but someone will pop up with some stupid argument if i do not)
