  Certainly an environment that encourages a lot of people to just be nice to everyone in stream by default (except when someone is deemed acceptable to be yelled at and laughed at by everyone else for content…) and some people are lonely enough that they read a little too much into “HI [username]!”

  That’s not an excuse to assault somebody

  Hold people accountable

    Who’s blaming the victim?

    I’m blaming the one-way relationship celebrity culture. It seems like a breeding ground for people with serious social issues.

    Pointing out who is likely to be a fan of hers isn’t “blaming the victim”. It’s being realistic about what she has to deal with. It shouldn’t happen, but bad people exist. Can’t ignore that.

    Let’s be honest here, Emiru is literally a bland do-nothing loser who cultivated her fan… I mean cult in a certain way to make it easier for her to fleece money off of desperate men.

    No one’s denying it is assault. In fact a lot of people say incident was waaaaaay too outrageous to be not considered staged. (Remember the whole Amouranth’s fake abuse case where she framed her husband & was later revealed to be bullshit.)

    At the end of the day, the person will go to jail, but this was a case of their toxic manipulative behaviour backfiring on them.

      What you’ve just done here is called “victim-blaming”

        I believe you skipped over the part where I said it was assault

      she was asking for it

      Are you hearing yourself right now?

        That’s YOUR interpretation. The correct one is she doesn’t deserve it; but let’s not kid ourselves. If it was someone like Asmongold (who I don’t like) you’d be singing a very different tune
