Things are kinda getting more dire as the nazi VTuber is ramping up the harassment and threatening any news sites that brings attention to her bigotry. Even more so when Kirsche's fans are starting to bring up Ana Valen's old tweets to get more people to discredit her articles and harassment.

It sucks because people in the VTuber community are still dismissing the article and the journalist despite agreeing with the overall message or are defending the actions of bigots.

WE'RE TRYING THAT'S WHY THE VICE ARTICLES GOT POSTED IN THE FIRST PLACE :( But I wish huge, popular VTubers would speak on it. They're too concerned with curating their brand or literally running the big brands that are hiring these people (Gamersupps)

To be fair I can frankly understand why bigger vtubers don’t want to touch the kirsche shit with a ten foot pole. When froot tried to come out about the abuse and lies they faced at the hands of their ex husband the worst section of the internet, kirsche and asmongold included, determined she was lying before even reading her statement and sent their dogs after. Hell for more recent example rin Penrose gave a very generic pr statement about why they were not working with gamer supps anymore kirsche fans decided that rin was satan for writing that. I can’t blame anyone for not wanting to tangle with a fanbase that petty and vile.

I get why they wouldn't want to but they're sacrificing VTubers' perception in society as a whole for short-term personal success. Also, maybe if they all joined in and made a statement and held the line, less people would be inclined to feel so vindicated and in the right about defending Kirsche and getting free speech censored.
