    I care so little that I made a meme about it. I care so little that I don’t even know what you are talking about.

      I think it’s pretty easy to understand: “I do not care to hear about it”. they never once said “it doesn’t bother me to hear about and this post proves that”

      lol, that could be apart of that meme:

      you care so little that you made a meme about it

      I care so little that I don’t even know what you are talking about

      We are not the same.

      I commend your not even knowing what I’m talking about.

      My curiosity got the better of me because of reading other people’s comments.

      I’d google ‘gloxxon cancelled’ because I thought it was actually a legitimate news story but it turns out he was embroiled in a high school level fight with Dinglebingle the reaction channel over saying his child had a watermelon shaped head.

    MoistCritikal pumps out a 12 minute video of him sitting in a chair going, “The recent YouTube drama with xXxBlorpkin and Tglof has gone too far” and generates millions of views.

      I’m probably just jealous I can’t upload a stream of consciousness down a camera and call it day while making hundreds of thousands of dollars.

      Where did I go wrong in life?

    I usually don’t either, but when a YouTuber threatens the life of another YouTuber (in this case SSSniperwolf doxxing Jacksfilms), that’s something that really makes me mad.

    Considering how lucrative drama content is, to the point where people orchestrate drama, I guess a lot of people care.

      It’s basically a set of IRL crossover episodes. I’m assuming in at least some cases it’s manufactured for the views.

        Jugglefruit and Krombusnombus aren’t actually mortal enemies because one said the others breath smelt like cat food and my attention is just being used for ad revenue that’s split between the two?!

      I think you’re talking about SSSniperWolf and JacksFilms. It’s particularly interesting because it’s not just two people arguing. SSSniperWolf very clearly violated YouTube TOS as well as possibly California law. YouTube’s response essentially protected her because she’s YouTube royalty, pulling in 1 million+ views on all her videos, which are all her “reacting” to tiktok videos.

      It’s beyond “drama”. It’s a giant tech/media company playing favourites with creators who break not only TOS, but copyright law, and US law. It shows they’ll look the other way over any infraction so long as you make them enough money.

        Exactly. Calling it “Drama” is an understatement. Though I was also partially referencing Illumigaughtii who is known for abusing her employees and actually fucking other people over financially

        People love to dismiss Youtuber serious controversies as “Petty drama” but then usually it’s stuff like SSSW and Illumigaughtii which is very much serious shit.

      I think it wouldn’t annoy me so much if I knew who any of them were. Seeing something about Globglopr having beef with Cronchstan just makes me think I’ve had a stroke.

        For other possible curious readers, the individuals that are being reference don’t exist. I had to check just for the fun of it.

    Tbh sometimes I get surprised about who gets in drama (especially childhood YouTubers), but even then I just don’t want to know what they did.

    I love it when people go out of their way to insist they don’t care about something. “I don’t care about politics” is the absolute gold standard, but this is pretty good too.

    People clearly do care, that’s why they manufacture drama. It helps drive engagement and views.

    Of course, it’s hard not to look down on people who develop parasocial relationships with youtube personalities.

    But some people are very lonely. So if anything we should be critical of the youtuber who knowingly cultivate unhealthy fanbases and profit off their misery.

      I don’t look down on them per se.

      Id just appreciate if they could keep their interests within the bubble of those respective communities.

      I.e. not invoking the spippycoo drama in comparison to actual news.

    If this is a reference to the hbomberguy drama, the actual story isn’t the drama. It’s about the rampant stealing/corner cutting/blatant plagiarism that big YouTubers are engaging in and making bank off of. They are often even lifting from lesser-known channels to make their money. It’s not right.

    If this isn’t about that, then yes generally it’s dumb lol
