I like the people in war campaign, like EVS, like CG streams, etc..
just wish nobody would fight but unfortunately sooner or later infighting was going to happen

reminds me all the crap that went down with Warski debate streams, all of a sudden everyone was fighting with each other
sucks, but whatever

It snowballed from there until we got this:

Yellow Flash is telling Ethan to become the official leader of CG on that stream, about 100 minutes in.

Ethan probably should pull a Metokur and say "lol feg" and walk away in response if that actually happened. Because there's wanting to use the label and then there's pulling a Sargon and having to be the don of middle aged comics spergs.

That hashtag is getting them money, so that might be a reason

EVS said he will become leader if they hold an election and he gets 100% of the CG vote. Doesn't seem to be interested in being de Facto leader. Probably because of shit like this
 
Well, this turned out to be a disappointing circle jerk instead of a truly entertaining blowout.

In the meantime, Peter Simeti is promoting indie comics creators who have no connection to him or his business:

Peter has been getting a lot of attention the past couple of days, and it looks like he's taking the opportunity to highlight actual comic books.
 
I saw a comment I agree with, #comicsgate dying would be the best thing for EVS out of everyone. He'd shed the Drama, still have his SW/Geek Culture YT and enough Fans to buy the 2-3 issues of Cyberfrog he'll make before retiring. There seems to be a fraction of the CG critics who really just have hate boners for EVS and the griping over something else (real or imagined) is just an excuse. I'd love to see the looks on their faces when they realize that wrecking CG does little to nothing to EVS, himself. It might have hurt him a year ago. His channel is big enough to sustain itself, now.

Anybody care to give a summary? I don't want to watch 3 1/2 hours of exceptionalism.

Nothing of note ended up happening. It basically ended up with Ethan saying what he always says, he doesn't want to be in charge and bitches better stop fucking with his money. Attempt to unify and turn WC into an anti-SJW meme army and stop scaring away normies from CG. Mike Miller and Ro hate each other but both need to play nice because they both need Ethan.

I think that's it, corrections or additions welcome if I missed anything.
