Though his go fund me is already at 50k so no worries for him I guess So his Patreon could pay off his collections debt easily and now the internet has already handled his back taxes. Yeah, being a mildly popular YouTuber is so hard.  
And here I am being a wage slave because I lack charisma and work ethic and creativity. And intelligence.
Abolish capitalism. Hopefully he doesn't claim this income and gets back taxes on this too.

Ana_Valens wrote: Update (5/9/2025): Since the publication of this article, harassment against me has become particularly egregious on Twitter. An anime-themed tea company told me to kill myself. A right-wing VTuber fan encouraged me to buy rope to hang myself.
Others continued the lurid harassment discussed in the original article. One Twitter user misgendered me and concluded I am a “degenerate” with a “humiliation fetish”. Another used a meme to tell me, “You’re a man.” A third argued “the trans community has a big problem in the room: autogynephilia.” A fourth suggested I created the harassment against myself.
I do not expect this harassment to end today on Twitter. Whether it’s a right-wing VTuber fan using an AI image of Shiloh Hendrix to flip me off, or a harasser encouraging others to “bully fucking journalists,” further evidence of bigotry in VTubing is being created in real time via my Twitter replies alone. In fact, I fear I may become a punching bag for the right-wing in VTubing. One VTuber previously criticized for her transphobia entered my mentions to tell me, “You will never be a woman.”

The previous article was bragging about how popular his fetish videos were and how this proves how evil whatever vTuber company was. Then people started looking at them (and mocking them obviously) and he deleted the YouTube channel of them. Now he's writing another article about this imaginary bigotry? Surely VICE has better complete garbage to publish than one dudes beef with a niche YouTube industry.
I’m impressed in how HololiveEng is pretty good in selecting not insane members (or at least they media training them) because seems every English speaking Vtuber agency is made of fucking lunatics.

lmao the way it starts with "this vtuber said something bigoted" and then veers right over to some fucking niche adult voice acting vtuber agency that's somehow really transphobic for only hiring women who sound like women. This is so obviously someone with an axe to grind about a super niche topic and it's embarrassing any editor let that through

Quote:It’s clear why far-right VTuber fans would spin these tall tales. They allow anti-trans bigots to paint me as a sexual predator and a pedophile, and thus discredit my writing by character assassination. There’s also, I presume, the thrill of choosing a target to sexually harass “justifiably.” There’s a lewd and lurid character to the lie, allowing harassers to simultaneously condemn me while fantasizing about my body being sexually penetrated by a vibrating butt plug.
Quote:There’s no doubt in my mind that this backlash, tinged in the belief that I am a degenerate transbian with an axe to grind, inspired more right-wing VTubers and VTuber fans to engage in transphobia.

Vice having standards?
The fact that the article devolves to “they are attacking me”  and in live journal blog post about shit that twitter/Bluesky said.
Maybe LadyCox could get her article published at Vice:

Imagine typing "No, I only had the sex toy between my fake tits, you bigot!" and thinking you're making a strong point.
lmao the forum he links to edited the posts:
So Ana mentioned in passing a, way bigger, drama between various indie vtubers.
Tl;dr : a vtuber called Sinder shit talked and sabotaged a lot of her friends. Is cancer and makes me glad that the only indie vtubers I follow are ex Nijisanji/Hololive.
That drama seems to have little to do with bigotry, thought.

If you were really sorry, you'd post hog.
This is one of those times I'm glad I'm old and out of touch, so I have no idea what anybody is talking about.

I believe in their original article they were actually pretty proud of these fetish recordings and claimed that lots of cis women like them
They don’t understand what I say on Twitter

Some Transwoman at Vice is complaining that a Porn Agency didn’t hired her.

When I look at Vtubers from the outside I don't see a right wing Nazi fest.
I see far left pseudo-Marxist transbian fetishists.

How do they think the world even works. Like how would you even go about removing all the vtubers you dislike from vtubing? what kind of enforcement are you demanding here? Like correct me if I'm wrong but at it's core vtubing is just using an animated avatar and literally anyone can do that.
(My favorite vtuber)
This sounds a lot like a trans writer complaining that JK Rowling is also allowed to write text on paper. You can't demand that the entire "space" is made safe because that space is just the world. Just make your own "safe space" if you really need it but don't act so surprised that not everyone in the world thinks like you

Valens is a open pervert but has a net of influence that even puritan progressives sites like ERA are willing to post their shit because identity politics say they should even if it makes no sense principle wise.

Then on the vTuber posts you have all these people talking about the need to eliminate any vTuber who says something they don't like. And it's like the same exact people posting because Valens retweeted it all.
