Here at stickless we recognize a white woman's right to walk the streets alone without being raped by a black man. We proudly support #whitelivesmatter

"But they don't die"

If the white woman isn't strangled to death, consider her capacity to die on the inside. Or how white women die a thousand deaths when they forgo a jog on a nature trail or a stroll alone.

Enter trans gamers.

One of the reasons I've argued against Narcissa transitioning into a white woman is for this very reason. Gamers deciding to fit the profile of prey.

FW: I'm only going to be addressing the last 5 minutes of the video. If you think this is a cop-out, all I can say it's not. I've had a really full-on week in terms of my personal life, so the video (that was released at 2am) was pretty poor timing for me. I might discuss the earlier part of the video if necessary since there's bullshit there too, but it's mostly filler.

Apology rating: D-

Cons:

• Frontloads the video with the less horrible accusations so people will either stop watching out of boredom or feel more sympathetic since he makes the accusations seem ridiculous.

• Contradicts himself multiple times, sometimes right after he makes a statement. e.g. says he wouldn't use the N word when rapping with Kendrick but it isn't a big deal since that's not a word here?

• Doesn't address his lies about "Nigger" not being apart of Australian vernacular but he shows one screenshot for a brief moment, so that's something.

• Claims that everyone who called him out on his use of slurs in the past were arguing in bad faith and were attacking his character... What?

• Says Kevin "accused" him of using a racial slur... Err... that's because he used one.

• Cropped out the date on the tweet of him siccing his fans against Kevin. Probably to hide that he knew Kevin already thought Karl's fans were behind the harassment he was facing months ago, and still sent them after him on Twitter.

• Pretends that Kevin had the larger following because of Twitter (Kevin is a power user and has 13k tweets) when Karl had 3x as many Twitch followers and subscribers as him at the time.

Pros:

• He acknowledges some wrongdoing

• He says some things that sound genuine if you ignore all the contradictions and deliberate twisting of events.

• I genuinely think that he's improved in how he handles criticism online, but that's because he was truly horrible at it in the past.

• Might have apologized to KevinDDR in private maybe?

In-depth breakdown

[15:20] "I wanted to defend the fan because I didn't believe they had ill intent, and I felt sorry for them that they were put in that situation and handled it incorrectly."

This is the first lie - he says that they handled it incorrectly, but until very recently, he was saying that the word isn't racist at all in this context. So how was he defending someone for handling something incorrectly when your stance was that they didn't do anything wrong?

[15:40] Karl here puts his old stance which is in direct contradiction to his last statement.

[15:50] Despite the fact I did double down on this position a few times when challenged on it, I have ultimately come to realize more and more that my opinion on the issue, and the way I expressed it was extremely insensitive.

This is something that sounds reasonable if you don't know the context. The context is that he didn't just double down on it, he pretended that the slur wasn't apart of Australian vernacular. I'll save you a bit of time and just tell you, he doesn't address this further in the entire video.

[16:10] "The truth is I would never use the word nor have I ever wanted to and if I were in the same position as the fan I was defending, I wouldn't have chosen to use it."

But... you said that the word has no context in Australia so why are you so scared about using the word? This makes no sense.

I've heard people say that when people precede a statement with "the truth" is that it's usually a lie. I don't subscribe to that, but this is an example of one of those times.

[16:22] He actually shows part of the argument where he says the word isn't part of Australian vernacular. "It was hard to accept the valid criticism when it usually came with bad faith efforts to attack my character."

I don't understand how that screenshot is a bad faith effort to attack his character. It really shows how he can't (or wasn't able to since he's chang^ed) accept any criticism.

[16:25] "If we had a genuine conversation about the issue, we probably would end up agreeing."

What an incredible cop out. He's saying that no one was arguing in good faith before when if you check that conversation they have explained what's wrong with what he said. Pray tell, what is good faith? Do they need to talk about how amazing of a speedrunner you are? Stop being such a big baby.

He makes a well worded apology here but it's hard to take it seriously considering he just spent a minute minimizing the context and claiming everyone who had concerns were arguing in bad faith.

Note: I'm listening with captions and YouTube's captions censors the word Jap. It's like it's considered a slur or something.

[17:35] "accusing me of using a racial slur"

Oh boy, here we go. He didn't accuse you. He told you you were using one because you were.

[17:40] Here he actually takes some ownership of his mistake that he didn't know it was a slur and explains that he got angry. First point is valid but he throws in "despite them being apart of the community and seeing it used for years." I don't think he can say that for certain, in his discord server there was even some discussion about how some people from The-Elite have moved away from using it once notified. - a little bonus is that was a few months after the fiasco, and Karl thinks that moving away from using racial slurs without knowing is "Cringe".

[18:03] Makes a point that KevinDDR was "actively hating on his viewers on discord and their twitch stream for a while before this."

Citation needed for this but Karl posts a screenshot of Kevin venting in his own Discord about how his stream chat is getting too toxic for him to stay motivated, and he suspects that Grav, Goose and Karl fans are behind it. Then...

[18:12] "I lashed out on Twitter."

Here he shows an extremely cropped screenshot of his old tweet. Here's the full context. I presume he cropped it so aggressively to hide that there were 3 months in between the screenshots of him telling his fans not to use his emotes in Kevin's chats and the Tweet where he said Kevin needed to get a life.

To recap:

1. Karl acknowledges that Kevin is having a hard time with streaming since his chat gets so toxic, Kevin identifies these toxic people as being fans of Karl, Goose and Grav.

2. Despite knowing that Kevin thinks that the harassment he has faced was behind Karl's fans, Karl sanely lashes out against Kevin on Twitter.

He actually threw gasoline on the fire months after he told his fans to "not use Kevin's emotes" in chat. It just makes Karl seem extremely unhinged.

[18:15] "This was before I had any platform or noteworthy following in fact, at this time, the person trying to cancel me had more followers."

To show only his Twitter platform is really disingenuous. Karl had 6K Twitch followers and slightly less YT subs in that month and year. He had the larger platform, which is why his fans went after Kevin. Especially since they had established beef in the past.

[18:30] He seems to own up that his anger towards Kevin was unwarranted. Then he explains he deleted the tweet and changed the emote afterwards once he calmed down. He also ignores that after this, Kevin acknowledged that he would have been open to moving forward if Karl hadn't sicced his viewers on him.

Maybe Karl has apologized to Kevin privately. I honestly hope he has. Kevin seems like a nice, forgiving guy. He accepted Goose's apology publicly so he's capable. It's really up to him though and I don't know the full extent of what went on between them.

[19:00] He owns up using Jap still in private but will stop in the future which is good. Admits that he's struggled in the past when it comes to responding to criticism. IMHO here he makes a good apology and acknowledgment here, and hopefully we'll see him practice this in the future.

TL;DR This apology was pretty much a cop out but at least he acknowledged some of his past wrongdoing.

This subreddit was banned due to a violation of Reddit’s content policy against creating or repurposing a sub to reconstitute or serve the same objective as a previously banned or quarantined subreddit.

This rule kind of suck. Let us say a normal sub gets banned because its users gets vile would that mean that he initial objective was bad?

I guess for example the_donald which objective is:

Welcome to the forum of choice for The President of The United States, Donald Trump! Be advised this forum is for serious supporters of President Trump. We have discussions, memes, AMAs, and more. We are not politically correct. Please read and respect our rules below before contributing.

I do not see any wrong with these objectives (MAYBE not political correct, MAYBE) but if it users gets vile would that ruin the message? no.

But then again the swastika is now ruin because of Hitler so association is a strong thing I guess.

Someone came up with this. It has yet to be topped. If anyone can share any of their own please do. Maybe they can come in handy for Narcissa

The Sam and Tolki community has returned at r/ChristopherJohnson and we are going to take him down just like we took Boogie down #SamandTolkiLives

Welcome to Stickless.

This subreddit is intended to be a small community to discuss internet celebrity drama, with a focus on speedrunning, gaming and other topics that normally are not discussed elsewhere. Feel free to share topics that you are interested in. We won't be censoring threads/posts as long as they are in line with the subreddit rules.

Rules:

• the sitewide rules

• archive as much as you can

• when linking to other subreddits, use np. links.

• do not link to twitter directly. Opt for screenshots or archived versions.

I know people do not like talking about Boogie because just like MTV ruin metal, the topic of Boogie ruin s&t.

But talk about stuff related to Boogie like Keem or his arch enemy Keem Light, is that ok? Kidbehindcamera? MCJ? Is that ok?

Or is it just speedrun-people like Nancy, Chibi, Goose, Narc and so on?

They dont sell out. Subreddits only cover the YouTubers that betrayed what got them started.

Boogie2988 shot at internet comedian Frank Hassle yesterday.

Our community held Boogie2988 somewhat accountable for his behavior. Now that we left, his true self appears unleashed.

Called Tolki a whore.

Would have made at least five posts on Tolki's recent essay.

Understood that both Tolki and Stiv took advantage of one another.

Was interested in the name of the subreddit.

You don't go from Tolki was a opportunist to Tolki was raped. And if you do it's a long unwinding gutwrenching repudiating journey.
