I think the situation with her on Twitter was more complicated than that, and much less black and white in who was in the wrong or not. It was just an all around shitshow. But I do still think she let her experiences there color her perception of proshippers more negatively than proshippers as a whole deserve, and it made the video frustrating. I didn’t hate it(and I still like her videos as a whole), but it felt emotionally one-sided how she covered both sides. And it was based solely on her personal experiences, which isn’t a great move. It was also one-sided in who came out looking worse as well, and that was of course the antis she covered.

I honestly do think it’s a plus(even though it might have been unintentional on her part) that she still accurately portrayed antis as the more insidious group, even though she was trying to go for a ‘both sides’ approach. Especially because she clearly seems to dislike proshippers more because of the Twitter debacle. Because antis and their horrifying behavior deserve to be exposed to more people outside of fandom who might have been unaware previously. And it might help some open-minded people in her audience be able to spot some of their tactics in the future.
