does anyone else pick up autism vibes on Nan? her vocal mannerisms remind me of my autistic cousin. can't tell if it's just her weird fake voice though.
They literally spent a good few days insisting that CP was a coping mechanism and Nan was traumatised before their favourite DIDtubers turned the tide and said actually that's not cool!
You really can't write this stuff these people are exceptional.
that's fucking lulz, i love how convenient this bunch is. they're always such stewards of social justice, until they're not.
also the irony is that this is a tried and true excuse of abusers. "i'm not a bad person for grooming this teen, i only did that because i had a bad childhood!"
YouTube drama may bring a lot of clicks very quickly, but getting involved in too many slapfights is a bad look. She already got involved with the Trisha drama for absolutely no reason (abloo abloo a woman who will say or do anything for attention called me crazy, such trauma), uploading a sob story about a person who voluntarily disappeared from the internet and made it very clear that they do not want to be involved with the community anymore is not the best idea either, even if they've become hated in the community.
yeah, esp given that Nan cheapened her image. you don't want to become the Nikocado Avocado of your genre. i actually suspect almost
every DID YouTuber connected in some way to Nan will attempt to distance themselves publicly, if they talk about it at all. since DID thrives on sympathy points and being a victim, Nan is basically poisoned assets.
chloe would be dumb to potentially invite more scrutiny rn, and she seems [relatively] clever imo. she'll probably just larp with her friends and milk their sympathy til things blows over.
from what I gather, a big part of D.I.D is parts of your self manifesting as "literal people", so if she does have that kink, that part of her that would of "played pretend" manifested as an alter? or as mentioned, she believes it so much, it did. or she doesn't want to admit that? something dark and deviant, if she would become a psychotherapist, someone finding that out might be squicked. unless they have 30 kinks.
you guys are psychoanalyzing this shit way too hard. she just wants attention. nothing more, nothing less. from the timeline OP provided it looks like she deliberately manufactured an entire life story. so from my perspective, she's just better at acting and more charismatic than Nan. i think making youtube channels requires some degree of narcissism anyway imo. it's weirdly sad, I almost kinda wanted to believe her, or at least believe that she was sincere even if delusional. she seemed like a nice person, all things considered.
tho i'll admit this shit has made me wonder a couple times how many munchies have secret illness fetishes.
If we assume that DID is legit, people form child alters in order to deal with repeated abuse. They basically create another child to take the abuse for them, not because of kinks. People accuse Chloe of having a DDLG kink because her DID is bullshit and there are videos of Nan and her making out and getting handsy as "littles". The term little itself is also used in DDLG but I'm not deep enough in the DID rabbit hole to know if everyone refers to their child alters as such or if that's just Chloe's deviancy
EDIT: Sorry I misunderstood your post. I feel like Chloe mostly has child alters because they're just part of the package. If you have DID, you have to have had childhood trauma, which means you would have needed child alters to deal with them. It wouldn't surprise me if she really convinced herself she had the disorder.
i really wouldn't be surprised if chloe was just very eager to please. like i suspect she'd be the kinda girl who'd secretly get super flattered by a compliment from someone who spent the past hour negging her. i haven't watched a ton of vids, but she sometimes seemed kind of put off by Nan's "age sliding" or whatever. Like imagine flirting w your SO and they just suddenly start acting like a toddler, lmao. I did kind of get the sense that living around Nan might have fucked up her general mental state, though. Like even aside from the issue of having to live with Nan, I don't see how you can larp your mental illness fantasies incessantly without actually losing some grip on reality.
