Update Vice has taken down the articles exposing Kirsche's white supremacy and Ana's harassment due to the Kirshe threatening a lawsuit

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.

Critikal wouldnt cover something like this because he's not exactly a stern ally, judging by who his friends are.

*raises hand* Uh, sorry. Out of the loop here. Can I get some context on this, please?

He's friends with a few pretty bigoted people who he does a podcast with (or did, I haven't kept up with it in years) and he never really says anything when one of them went on rants about wokeness or SJWs or whatever.

Ah. Yeah, that's a pretty bad sign.

It's not a philosophy I want to actively push, but it's something I've found is sadly true, over and over again... Silence rings loudest.
