I'm actually gonna disagree with you. If you want a good beer, having a small percent of dog piss mixed into it kinda ruins the experience. And nobody was calling it a hugbox, they were pointing out the deep infestation of rainbow agents who are more interested in shit like fighting the evils of capitalism, gender and minor non-consent than talking about vtubers. Also, I have yet to see anyone say anything as exceptional as this in thread:
I saw that thread and that specific comment too. I'm pretty sure it's a sarcastic joke. Though I think I can add a little context as to why Dedechi (who went on to become Hololive's Mano Aloe) said what she said in that fateful TwitCast where she "slandered" the legacy of graduated Nijisanji liver
Kudou Chitose. I don't know if this was already discussed here, but I'll try and explain what I know about it.
From what I understand, the TwitCast in question where Dedechi/Aloe "slandered" Chitose was under the context that, at that point, no one knew why Chitose suddenly retired from Nijisanji. So naturally, rumors as to the reason why began circulating, with one of them being that Chitose's roommate was doxed and harassed into retirement. Dedechi discussed this rumor on that TwitCast when she was talking about the potential dangers that could come from working for another seiyuu company she had signed up for that year (this TwitCast is from 2019 for context, before Gen 3 of Hololive even existed).
The issue is that the rumor ended up being debunked (I think) a week later when Chitose's roommate began releasing music under
DUSTCELL. The reason for her graduating from Nijisanji was finally confirmed by a statement released shortly after Chitose's (now
EMA) DUSTCELL debut, in which it's stated that the reason she retired is that she considered streaming to be a hassle and wanted to focus more on making music.
That statement can be found here. It makes sense that Chitose decided to go into music, considering she was (imo) the best singer in Nijisanji at the time.
Unfortunately, as a result of repeating a (now proven false) rumor in a TwitCast that should have been deleted, people, be they antis or salty/tribalistic Nijisanji fans, pounced on Aloe for "slander". I understand why Dedechi/Aloe believed and talked about the rumor though, considering Chitose never gave a good reason for her sudden retirement. It made sense for people to theorize it was something serious. This was honestly just a case of bad actors taking advantage of a situation where Dedechi mentioned bad speculation that concerned her due to the job she was about to take on and a manager and/or talent that should have deleted the old stream(s) where the mention was made in the first place.
