Yeah. I was part of the whole Dan and Phil shit and I sincerely regret it. It's fucking weird, these are real people. I was never particularly deep into it but I was deep enough that it makes me cringe
@@idkimtired7898 First of all "Dan in Phil" is an incredibly funny typo, and second of all Dan and Phil are two RUclipsrs who were incredibly popular during the 2010s.

There were videos relentlessly searching for "proof" they were in a relationship and it was really quite uncomfortable in hindsight.

5:24 “where’s the women” okay I was in the fandom for a while and I can confirm that female content creators were overshadowed and excluded constantly from the fandom (and within the Dream smp to an extent)
Yeah…I did watch the dream smp I think around the time when Tommy joined cause I was into his content at the time. What made me stop watching the dsmp was the lack of women or any sort of diversity. Don’t get wrong, I don’t have anything against any of the creators a part of the dsmp, I have so much respect for the type of entertainment they were able to create out of a game of Minecraft. However, because of the lack of diversity, and just growing out of that style of content, I think it was best, for me, to stop watching.
@@EmissaryofWind there’s captain puffy, nihachu, hannahxxrose, and tinakitten. all of them are white except tina (only mentioning this bc I wish there was more diversity among dream smp women)
i used to be friends with a bunch of like hardcore dsmp stans that wrote fanfiction about the people...not the characters...the people in middle school and looking back it was such a terrible choice
yeah I have no problem with ppl who can seperate the creators from the characters (most ppl I interacted with in the fandom did) but the ppl who didn't know how...... and just didn't care about boundaries at all.. :/ most of them were young but its still creepy
@@fairy_floss I don't think it's fair to say that it's worse or better. you're probably just looking back at it with rose-tinted glasses, it's the exact same situation. teens on the internet going way past youtubers' boundaries and being weird about real people. If anything, Dan and Phil was weirder because you can't even give people the benefit of the doubt and assume that they don't know where the roleplay ends and begins, because they weren't ever roleplaying
its weird that they do this to real people but remember that Dream said its alright for them to do so. he also often encourages his stans, which the definition of stan can be dumbed down to "toxic stan", hes bringing this onto himself and its kind of funny to see him try and act like it doesnt bother him
As someone who was in the fandom for about a year and a half, a lot of this POV content is based off of the characters played in the dream SMP. With this fandom people are very concise about separating the character from the actual person. So the majority of these weird ass tiktoks are based off of the characters the creators play on the DSMP.
@@ashbash2892 yeah that’s what i’ve been thinking. i’m not a fan of the dsmp but i really liked watching anthony padilla’s interviews with some of them and i can’t remember which one but he said the toxic fans get highlighted the most when there’s not a massive amount of toxic ones. i have four friends who love the dsmp and they just love minecraft and the lore and everything. they’re probably the least problematic people i know 😭
A lot of these are also in different fandoms, people just are put off because these are actual people, even if they have said they’re alright with it. It’s a strange phenomenon we’ve never really seen before.
It isn't really uncommon. Still weird but its pretty common. This type of stuff has been done by fandoms of Boybands , Early 2010's youtubers, K-pop idols and celebrities. The only thing thats different is when it comes to ships like some of them kinda play into it.
ir right the "real people that have said theyre ok with it" is new territory for most people. This stuff has been around for a while but never with the creators explicit consent before. We finally got to a point where we acknowledged the problems with rpf, and now this fandom has been enabled do and normalize it.
Only other group I can think of is game grumps or a lot of the rooster teeth people are cool with shipping as long as it's not super immoral or anything but I've noticed it's a smaller amount that does the shipping as opposed to dream smp where it appears to be almost the whole fandom to the point of an echo chamber?
@@artlessthief there's actually a pretty big portion of the fandom that doesn't participate in shipping since a lot of the creators have said they're not comfortable with it (unless it's platonic, but that's a blurry line) from what I've gathered the shipping does seem pretty big, that's just not the side of the fandom I'm on. It really is an echo chamber though with people collectively normalizing this sort of content
all jokes aside the parasocial relationship between dsmp members and their “stans” is absolutely ridiculous and just screams mentally unstable as you mentioned before, they are REAL PEOPLE who have lives outside of playing minecraft
When i was 14 or so, it was the height of people shipping jacksepticeye and markiplier and this whole situation is giving me the same vibes and I don't like it.
Kinda feels like the reiteration of cinnamon toast ken and the canadian one, Pewds, skydoes minecraft thing. The hunger games mc guys (prop hunt) It was a different RUclips then though
No yeah it’s actually very scary how that and kpop have made social relationships even worse like does anybody remember when those teenage girls were literally cutting themselves for Justin Bieber because he was smoking a cigarette this is that but 1 million times worse like it’s actually almost scary and dream part of the reason I can’t stand him feeds into that like he knows it will make him more money
Most of the fandom absolutely hates dsmp tiktok thankfully but it sucks that the only things people know about the fans is from cringe comps or dumb Twitter drama instead of how we have some absolutely insane artists and songwriters like SADist or Derivakat.
exactly! people forget that we have some absolutely insanely talented/skilled people here and that the majority is mostly chill and it’s just the loud minority that are weird
I think people IN the fandom also like to focus on the 'good' stuff rather than all the problematic stuff they've done, like schlatts whole personality is that he's racist, or DNF queerbaiting, dream being anti-indigenous, tommyinnit being homophobic and harassing women or techno blade being antisematic. this is just the stuff I can think off the top of my head. I would just like to let everyone know that it isn't the stans who are weird (they are usually like ten) its the CREATORS. They are actively enabling this behavior.
@@Screwdriver-lj4im also Tommy’s not homophobic dude he’s made multiple statements that he loves the lgbt community and he’s best friends Ranboo, tubbo, aimsey, billzo, baddlinnu, and eryn, plus half of his community is lgbtq stop spreading fake shit around
the lesbian comment he made was basically him saying that he understands lesbians because they love women and he also loves women but some people took it way to seriously and misunderstood what he said lmao
i remember this, he said "i understand lesbians because i also love women and hate men." i dislike dsmp so i might be biased but as a lesbian that was just super frustrating. granted he was like 17 or whatever and 17 year olds say stupid shit
@@trucevideos to be fair half of his fan base is queer women, i think he was trying to make a joke and connect with the audience. i, for one, thought that was hilarious, because it didn’t give off the same uncomfortable vibes that someone actually homophobic would give off when making the joke. he was 16 at the time too, since then he’s learned what kind of jokes he can make to connect with his fans
Funniest thing, as someone who watched some DSMP a while ago, from the get-go I disagree. If you got hurt, Dream's in-SMP character would probably laugh at your face and George would for an unknown reason simply not be there
the way nick reacts to the "walks in on you doing the devils tango" tiktok is so real bc i keep seeing tiktoks of how various characters would react to walking in on you getting dressed and it's like. i'd hope all of them would just say sorry and close the door?? lolol
as a former dsmp fan a lot of the community is very nice people and super friendly and most of them hate this stuff too. its a great fandom if youre in the right place.
exactly, i stick to the fanart and youtube side of the fandom, and i’m doing great. i use to watch a lot of dsmp tiktok compilations, because a lot of them were clips, or fanart, or memes, but then i kept coming across stuff like this and weird edits of the younger members, and like genuine speculation of these people’s relationships, and so now i stay away from those too
People on the Internet are getting too comfortable. Those POVs are like stories about my crush that I think of when I'm trying to go to sleep but- I don't put them on the Internet!
I still follow, support and enjoy the content of many of these people. It's just hard to express or share that without being lumped in with this part of the community. There are people in the dsmp fandom who are like this (pushing the boundaries of content creators and making cringy... almost kinda creepy content). They became the face of the community and dubbed it as problematic, cringy, and weird. But there are also people who are pretty respectful and unproblematic who want to enjoy the content for the content. Most of us find these povs cringy and creepy too. Just be careful, some of the fandom is kinda weird...
See, it’s the same thing with BTS Stan’s. I used to be an army but I exited that community because all the negative stuff was pushed to the forefront and into the spotlight that it just made it unenjoyable to me. Now I barely listen to K-pop in general. A LOT of people that I got to know because of BTS are now no longer armies for the same reason. Of course, same thing with armies, I know that majority of the fandom are cool people who are genuinely just there to enjoy these peoples content, but because of all the stuff that’s being pushed, it’s hard to be part of that community or communities like that because the toxicity you experience. I’m just upset that I can’t enjoy something like this without being pushed into the problematic part of the fandom. That’s mainly what you experienced when you’re part of something like this. It’s frustrating too because they do so much wrong. They hurt people and attack people, and it’s just so unfair to the people getting attacked and the creators. Basically, it’s the same situation with the DSMP. I used to watch their content all the time but now I don’t consume their content because it’s just stressful at this point. It’s basically a cult.
Same here; I barely watch their streams or videos anymore due to the negativity surrounding people who enjoy their content. I've never been one of the people to say I was a stan or make weird content about them, but seeing the amount of hate people get for simply watching their content, I don't want to partake in it as much anymore. It also sucks since there are so many amazing artists/animators, songwriters, etc. within the community, but people only ever really see the negative side.
same, i dont watch much of it but i hate how everyone shits on it when its just a type of entertainment for mainly kids, i agree the fandom (especially dreams fandom) can be super toxic or weird but I know of few ppl from the community who are genuinely nice and just find the content entertaining, nothing wrong with that
yeah exactly! whenever i see anyone being weird and obviously crossing boundaries i just block them and don’t interact with it. i think there is such a stigma around the creators when in reality a lot of people do just enjoy their content and streams without over stepping the line.
Yeah and people don't acknowledge that it's like that in every fandom it sucks that people get shit on for liking the dsmp because of the other crazy fans bs
Even while being in the Fandom, I absolutely hate those POV. On behalf of the Fandom, we sincerely apologize for them and promise to try and fix the issue.
i swear, the povs of them ‘holding your hand’ was the first i ever saw. i’d rather not disclose that i watch some of the cc’s to people offline cause that shit is embarrassing
as someone who has some anthro ocs, I make an effort not to judge a fandom based on its cringiest members. Glass houses, you know? But damn if dream stans don't push that to its limit lol
@@minimumeffort_ I've been all over the DSMP when I found it in the 'pogtopia arc' and have not seen cringe like this on an actual basis. If I do, it's because the fans are making fun of it. I think you're very right on how the DSMP is just the new trend to bully, and considering Tiktok as a whole is just very cringe [Look at ANY fandom on it and you'll find it immediately] as it loves to boost stupid videos, and even as far as push dangerous trends, I wouldn't take them as the baseline at all. Out of all the fandoms I've been in, the DSMP has one of the least 'cringe' and have been one of the most creative and artistically set, there's literally everything else to think of about the fans.
the thing is that you can apply this stuff to their FICTIONAL characters (the dsmp characters are seperate from the actual MEMBERS and who they are) but applying it to them as actual people is just weird ☹️
it gets confusing since theyve named the characters after themselves. so it makes it murky wether these ppl making povs abt the fictional characters or the real human ppl behind the character.
@@tims5978 and seeing as the character is still generally moulded after the real person, so not completely fictional. some people will just use the “it’s a character” pretence to escape being criticised for saying weird stuff about a real person
@@bigfish_ I mean for some of the creators their character really isn't like them at all so it's really easy to seperate them (wilbur comes to mind first) but for the creators that don't really work to separate the character from themselves makes the water a little murky
any fandom of a thing where the ppl are like… actual real humans with actual real lives and feelings makes me uncomfortable. especially when the fans start shipping these REAL PEOPLE together. i’m pretty sure most of them have personas but still they aren’t fictional characters so it’s… weird. i feel like it’s the same kind of thing with k-pop stans.
yeah.. it was an actual issue for a bit that a group of people would photoshop pictures of the members (including actual kids at the time, they were like 16 or something) into sexual situtions on their own or with each other. When _That_ happens, well then its time for a fandom reboot. And by boot i mean kick em far away
to be fair quite a few of the creators are fine with shipping. a lot of them find it funny, and don’t care. obviously before posting anything like that you need to verify that it doesn’t go against people’s boundaries, but yeah i think the world is just confused because for the first time the people being shipped don’t actually care.
the tapeworm post brought back so many memories of my tumblr dashboard being FLOODED with it. It was inescapable for dream smp tumblr users back in 2021. even for the actual dream smp member(s?) who joined that app. nobody liked it and everyone wanted to inflict it onto others
I don't know what any of these YTs look like so when I watch these, I'm like, oh they must be like the hottest IRL anime dudes ever right? And then I look them up and it's just a bunch of random dudes I wouldn't think twice about if I passed them on the street.
@@pcpt of course, but thats a given in pretty much any fandom. what we should do is ignore it, not put these children on blast for being cringey like normal 15 year olds are who will come to regret it with time. i like nick, but i think this video is hypocritical of him to make considering the critiques he has for dream.
@@claire-fd7kq i do understand why you’re mad at him not blurring @s and stuff but also the kids there also fantasizing weird content about people which some of them are barely adults. like for one purpled turned 18 only a few months ago, that video could’ve been made before he was even an adult. same with tommy.
"listen to the lyrics!" it's if only from descendants??? when maleficent's daughter sings about how she has feelings for belle and the beast's son, who she gave a love potion, after going on one (1) date???? i know that's not the point, but using a dcom song for this pov is SO funny to me
I'm a pretty avid watcher of the dream smp [really only tommyinnit, ranboo and tubbo], and these povs still make me physically cringe every time I see them. Some of the fandom is pretty fuckin weird.
im the same as you, like what was said in the video, it's alright with fictional characters but there's just something not right with doing these povs with irl people 💀💀
I’m having biology class flashbacks when the teacher put me next to the weird dream stans and they were exactly like this…like they were obsessed, I had to sit through a whole semester of them showing me ships of these poor people 😭
I think it's a tumblr meme. it's likely a parody of a similar format I've seen plenty of times about shit like "the attack on titan characters reacts to u getting pregnant" that seemed more common on early tumblr. I've seen the tapeworm thing many times now, I think it became known in... 2017-18? that's when my social circles started referencing it to be "quirky" lol, so I am unphased by it now
I am actually now OBSESSED with your music and listen to it almost daily on Apple Music. Thank you for making it. You’re very talented, Nick. Thank you for sharing it with us. Your music has actually helped me during some rough times already. Thank you.
I actually really like the content some of the people in the smp make but it’s stuff that’s completely separate from the smp. I can literally never get into it bc the fandom is such a nightmare to me and this just proves it.
As an ex dsmp fan (I still watch some creators) I apologise for the therapy ur gonna need after this. Even dsmp fans fear that weird part of our community *shivers* tiktok
I've always thought that any fanfiction with real people rub me the wrong way, at least the more intimate ones....of couse, when I was younger I've read some, but I guess some people write some real gross stuff about people....idk??
Immediately paused the video to listen to your new song. It's so good, man! The depth when you have headphones on. Truly love the vibe of all your songs. Can't wait to see what else will come out in the future. Will be playing this on repeat. (:
Thank you for being respectful when making this video. I went into watching this thinking I was gonna be mad (as a dsmp fan) but I wasn’t! Most people make ableist and homophobic jokes about the creators and their young fans which is really upsetting to see since minecraft and the DSMP are really popular with neurodivergent and queer kids. Your jokes were respectful and you reminded your followers not to harass anyone which I really appreciate. 🖤
my favorite thing ever is me saying something like "dream stans scare me" and they're like "GOOD" like ma'am that wasn't a type of 'ahh im so scared' it was more 'please stop'
I’ve seen videos like this for fictional characters which are all fine (some are funny, some are kind of cringy, but they’re fine) but it’s really weird when it’s real people. Same with shipping and stuff. Fine with fictional characters, not fine with real people
Wow another youtuber making fun of teenagers...You didn't even hide their @s which is so weird. I'm not a dream stan and even this makes me uncomfortable as an adult. You'd think as an adult you would have critical thinking skills about what you put out on the internet. This is just so uncomfortable
so glad i stopped being a part of the dream smp community, i couldn't keep up with the lore, there was always someone getting cancelled, and the ships weirded me tf out bro...
How I think every member of the Dream SMP would respond to seeing your post about them finding out you have a tapeworm: Dream: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you* Tim: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you* Garrett: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you* Minecraft Steve: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you* Bingo Bongo: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you* Nick: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
I think the only way to ensure you're not in a tapeworm post is to tell us how you would respond to y/n having a tapeworm and that way theres no need to speculate
this whole thing is so strange to me. based on how people talked about them I thought that dream smp was like a minecraft world and those people were characters in some story in it, not ACTUAL PEOPLE
Because they are separate characters! But they well have the same names as the RUclipsrs. Mostly because at first they were normally playing Minecraft so they all called each other by their user names like Philza or Wilbur but then they started to do roleplay and they started to play characters. But because of time sometimes people will say tommy but don't mean the real life tommy but the tommy from the story. Tho usually people just say cc!Tommy -content creator tommy or c!tommy - character tommy
because they are separate characters, the dsmp is scripted and some creators even edit their videos like a movie or TV drama. the actors just keep their names / usernames as their character name. a lot of the acting is improv but the plot is pre-made up (speaking as an ex fan)
I see the POVs of Dream and his cronies and, sure, I hate it, but I'm not super bothered because that's just the kinda fandom they built for themselves (mostly taking about Dream Team). But then I see CCs like Charlie Slimecicle or Schlatt get brought into the POVs and it makes me want to jump into a public aquarium and chew on a fish in front of all the families with their children who decided to have a fun day at the aquarium on the weekends have to witness me absorb a fish into my bowels.
@@kayceeviolet5147 As far as I know, Charlie didn't do anything...? I think OP was referring to the fact that when content creators such as Schlatt and Charlie are brought into DSMP povs it's just...cringe. Majority of the DSMP fandom are known for being sort of wild and I guess fans of Schlatt and Charlie don't like being associated with DSMP? That's my take on it anyways
The pure wheeze i let out when he reached fundy and immediately said "that's when the names get weird", fundy deserves this one he has been missing for months

Only other group I can think of is game grumps or a lot of the rooster teeth people are cool with shipping as long as it's not super immoral or anything but I've noticed it's a smaller amount that does the shipping as opposed to dream smp where it appears to be almost the whole fandom to the point of an echo chamber?
@@artlessthief there's actually a pretty big portion of the fandom that doesn't participate in shipping since a lot of the creators have said they're not comfortable with it (unless it's platonic, but that's a blurry line) from what I've gathered the shipping does seem pretty big, that's just not the side of the fandom I'm on. It really is an echo chamber though with people collectively normalizing this sort of content
all jokes aside the parasocial relationship between dsmp members and their “stans” is absolutely ridiculous and just screams mentally unstable
as you mentioned before, they are REAL PEOPLE who have lives outside of playing minecraft
It's actually like completely insane
seeing tweets about like karl & dream are actually so whack to read because they treat these people like they’re their best friends 🫠
When i was 14 or so, it was the height of people shipping jacksepticeye and markiplier and this whole situation is giving me the same vibes and I don't like it.
Kinda feels like the reiteration of cinnamon toast ken and the canadian one, Pewds, skydoes minecraft thing.
The hunger games mc guys (prop hunt)
It was a different RUclips then though
No yeah it’s actually very scary how that and kpop have made social relationships even worse like does anybody remember when those teenage girls were literally cutting themselves for Justin Bieber because he was smoking a cigarette this is that but 1 million times worse like it’s actually almost scary and dream part of the reason I can’t stand him feeds into that like he knows it will make him more money
Most of the fandom absolutely hates dsmp tiktok thankfully but it sucks that the only things people know about the fans is from cringe comps or dumb Twitter drama instead of how we have some absolutely insane artists and songwriters like SADist or Derivakat.
exactly! people forget that we have some absolutely insanely talented/skilled people here and that the majority is mostly chill and it’s just the loud minority that are weird
I think people IN the fandom also like to focus on the 'good' stuff rather than all the problematic stuff they've done, like schlatts whole personality is that he's racist, or DNF queerbaiting, dream being anti-indigenous, tommyinnit being homophobic and harassing women or techno blade being antisematic. this is just the stuff I can think off the top of my head. I would just like to let everyone know that it isn't the stans who are weird (they are usually like ten) its the CREATORS. They are actively enabling this behavior.
@@Screwdriver-lj4im whoah techno being antisemitic??
@@schnabby208 no. He’s not lmao
@@Screwdriver-lj4im also Tommy’s not homophobic dude he’s made multiple statements that he loves the lgbt community and he’s best friends Ranboo, tubbo, aimsey, billzo, baddlinnu, and eryn, plus half of his community is lgbtq stop spreading fake shit around
the lesbian comment he made was basically him saying that he understands lesbians because they love women and he also loves women but some people took it way to seriously and misunderstood what he said lmao
i remember this, he said "i understand lesbians because i also love women and hate men." i dislike dsmp so i might be biased but as a lesbian that was just super frustrating. granted he was like 17 or whatever and 17 year olds say stupid shit
@@trucevideos to be fair half of his fan base is queer women, i think he was trying to make a joke and connect with the audience. i, for one, thought that was hilarious, because it didn’t give off the same uncomfortable vibes that someone actually homophobic would give off when making the joke. he was 16 at the time too, since then he’s learned what kind of jokes he can make to connect with his fans
as a lesbian i wish he would still apologize for it but it shouldnt be something to cancel him over 🤷♀️
Still, he doesn’t understand what we go through daily. Plus he’s stereotyping us with the whole “all lesbians hate men and love women”
not your place to talk
i cannot imagine posting myself doing impressions on what kind of fuckboy face youtubers would make 😭
nick laughing at that video and then staring at me with a completely blank face was incredible
Funniest thing, as someone who watched some DSMP a while ago, from the get-go I disagree. If you got hurt, Dream's in-SMP character would probably laugh at your face and George would for an unknown reason simply not be there
oh yeah for sure
George would be sleeping
dream's character would be the one who hurt you in the first place
@@KLenN1fan true, man's a got a track record for manipulating children
Memento mori?
the way nick reacts to the "walks in on you doing the devils tango" tiktok is so real bc i keep seeing tiktoks of how various characters would react to walking in on you getting dressed and it's like. i'd hope all of them would just say sorry and close the door?? lolol
as a former dsmp fan a lot of the community is very nice people and super friendly and most of them hate this stuff too. its a great fandom if youre in the right place.
fr, people act like the media doesn’t boost all the bad bits of the fandom, it’s so much nicer when u find the good part 😩
exactly, i stick to the fanart and youtube side of the fandom, and i’m doing great. i use to watch a lot of dsmp tiktok compilations, because a lot of them were clips, or fanart, or memes, but then i kept coming across stuff like this and weird edits of the younger members, and like genuine speculation of these people’s relationships, and so now i stay away from those too
As another former fan, agreed
well said
as a recently reverted fan again yeah i gotta say these vids made me cringe so hard
this getting recommended after his face reveal>>
People on the Internet are getting too comfortable. Those POVs are like stories about my crush that I think of when I'm trying to go to sleep but- I don't put them on the Internet!
I love the "______ reacts to you having a tapeworm pov" tumblr posts, although they do tend to get really copypasty
It’s so much weirder when you know Dream is Danny Gonzalez 😯
What
No he's drew gooden
Dream Smp you got Sampam, Timmy ain’t it, George came home
I still follow, support and enjoy the content of many of these people. It's just hard to express or share that without being lumped in with this part of the community. There are people in the dsmp fandom who are like this (pushing the boundaries of content creators and making cringy... almost kinda creepy content). They became the face of the community and dubbed it as problematic, cringy, and weird. But there are also people who are pretty respectful and unproblematic who want to enjoy the content for the content.
Most of us find these povs cringy and creepy too.
Just be careful, some of the fandom is kinda weird...
See, it’s the same thing with BTS Stan’s. I used to be an army but I exited that community because all the negative stuff was pushed to the forefront and into the spotlight that it just made it unenjoyable to me. Now I barely listen to K-pop in general. A LOT of people that I got to know because of BTS are now no longer armies for the same reason. Of course, same thing with armies, I know that majority of the fandom are cool people who are genuinely just there to enjoy these peoples content, but because of all the stuff that’s being pushed, it’s hard to be part of that community or communities like that because the toxicity you experience. I’m just upset that I can’t enjoy something like this without being pushed into the problematic part of the fandom. That’s mainly what you experienced when you’re part of something like this. It’s frustrating too because they do so much wrong. They hurt people and attack people, and it’s just so unfair to the people getting attacked and the creators. Basically, it’s the same situation with the DSMP. I used to watch their content all the time but now I don’t consume their content because it’s just stressful at this point. It’s basically a cult.
Same here; I barely watch their streams or videos anymore due to the negativity surrounding people who enjoy their content. I've never been one of the people to say I was a stan or make weird content about them, but seeing the amount of hate people get for simply watching their content, I don't want to partake in it as much anymore.
It also sucks since there are so many amazing artists/animators, songwriters, etc. within the community, but people only ever really see the negative side.
same, i dont watch much of it but i hate how everyone shits on it when its just a type of entertainment for mainly kids, i agree the fandom (especially dreams fandom) can be super toxic or weird but I know of few ppl from the community who are genuinely nice and just find the content entertaining, nothing wrong with that
yeah exactly! whenever i see anyone being weird and obviously crossing boundaries i just block them and don’t interact with it. i think there is such a stigma around the creators when in reality a lot of people do just enjoy their content and streams without over stepping the line.
Yeah and people don't acknowledge that it's like that in every fandom
it sucks that people get shit on for liking the dsmp because of the other crazy fans bs
yeah the povs about REAL LIFE PEOPLE are quite weird in my opinion but luckily most of them revolve around the characters from lore
"most" is a stretch
not most. all of the ones ive seen are real people ones
Even while being in the Fandom, I absolutely hate those POV. On behalf of the Fandom, we sincerely apologize for them and promise to try and fix the issue.
same here homie. Some just take it to a level of cringe at times.
Same
i swear, the povs of them ‘holding your hand’ was the first i ever saw. i’d rather not disclose that i watch some of the cc’s to people offline cause that shit is embarrassing
i've seen a few povs, but when i see them all i do is cringe. i may be part of the fandom, but some people just get a bit weird with it
it just saddens me so much because its how some people first discover the community and have the impression we're all like that
as someone who has some anthro ocs, I make an effort not to judge a fandom based on its cringiest members. Glass houses, you know? But damn if dream stans don't push that to its limit lol
yea like ive done some cringey shiti on ao3 and i don't wanna be a hypocrite but....
that’s cause social media boosts all the shit and cringy parts of the DSMP fandom, i’ve been in it for 2 years so i’ve found the good community
yeah as a current fan i jsut gotta say most of us hate this stuff like i just pretend it doesn't exist
@@minimumeffort_ I've been all over the DSMP when I found it in the 'pogtopia arc' and have not seen cringe like this on an actual basis. If I do, it's because the fans are making fun of it.
I think you're very right on how the DSMP is just the new trend to bully, and considering Tiktok as a whole is just very cringe [Look at ANY fandom on it and you'll find it immediately] as it loves to boost stupid videos, and even as far as push dangerous trends, I wouldn't take them as the baseline at all. Out of all the fandoms I've been in, the DSMP has one of the least 'cringe' and have been one of the most creative and artistically set, there's literally everything else to think of about the fans.
Povs in general are pretty bad but dream povs are so much worse
I've only seen a few good ones but yeah majority of them are pretty bad lmao.
you haven’t seen dracotok of eddie munson povs
@@minimumeffort_ oh god
@@minimumeffort_ I don't even understand half of those words and I don't think I want to
the thing is that you can apply this stuff to their FICTIONAL characters (the dsmp characters are seperate from the actual MEMBERS and who they are) but applying it to them as actual people is just weird ☹️
it gets confusing since theyve named the characters after themselves. so it makes it murky wether these ppl making povs abt the fictional characters or the real human ppl behind the character.
@@tims5978 and seeing as the character is still generally moulded after the real person, so not completely fictional. some people will just use the “it’s a character” pretence to escape being criticised for saying weird stuff about a real person
@@bigfish_ I mean for some of the creators their character really isn't like them at all so it's really easy to seperate them (wilbur comes to mind first) but for the creators that don't really work to separate the character from themselves makes the water a little murky
Yeah, especially the y/n shipping and stuff because in general these are kids and teens watching them
@@tims5978 usually or at least the difference that I see ppl use which is c! Which is the character and cc! Which is the content creators
any fandom of a thing where the ppl are like… actual real humans with actual real lives and feelings makes me uncomfortable. especially when the fans start shipping these REAL PEOPLE together. i’m pretty sure most of them have personas but still they aren’t fictional characters so it’s… weird. i feel like it’s the same kind of thing with k-pop stans.
yeah.. it was an actual issue for a bit that a group of people would photoshop pictures of the members (including actual kids at the time, they were like 16 or something) into sexual situtions on their own or with each other. When _That_ happens, well then its time for a fandom reboot. And by boot i mean kick em far away
to be fair quite a few of the creators are fine with shipping. a lot of them find it funny, and don’t care. obviously before posting anything like that you need to verify that it doesn’t go against people’s boundaries, but yeah i think the world is just confused because for the first time the people being shipped don’t actually care.
the tapeworm post brought back so many memories of my tumblr dashboard being FLOODED with it. It was inescapable for dream smp tumblr users back in 2021. even for the actual dream smp member(s?) who joined that app. nobody liked it and everyone wanted to inflict it onto others
I had the same reaction as the person in chat when nick googled yandere lmao
I would be so uncomfortable if someone was making tiktoks like that about me

the tiktok’s are cringe but they’re just kids. they look no older than 15 and will obviously regret this when they’re older
Yeah, is it just me or does this feel super mean-spirited. I genuinely couldn't sit through more that 2 minutes. He's just bullying these kids.
@@chloe-qs7ue yeah i was shocked. such a different tone to his usual videos
@@chloe-qs7ue they’re still saying weird shit about actual people
@@pcpt of course, but thats a given in pretty much any fandom. what we should do is ignore it, not put these children on blast for being cringey like normal 15 year olds are who will come to regret it with time. i like nick, but i think this video is hypocritical of him to make considering the critiques he has for dream.
@@claire-fd7kq i do understand why you’re mad at him not blurring @s and stuff but also the kids there also fantasizing weird content about people which some of them are barely adults. like for one purpled turned 18 only a few months ago, that video could’ve been made before he was even an adult. same with tommy.
there's just something about someone making a dsmp pov to a descendants song that doesn't sit right with me...
i am truly astounded that nick did not know the term yandere for 23 years of his life
just remembering the reckoning of jschlatt banning all of them…
"listen to the lyrics!" it's if only from descendants??? when maleficent's daughter sings about how she has feelings for belle and the beast's son, who she gave a love potion, after going on one (1) date???? i know that's not the point, but using a dcom song for this pov is SO funny to me
these people could do with a talking to by Ludwig about how streamers/youtubers aren't a replacement for real life human interactions and happiness
“censor their names” he streamed this guys
I'm a pretty avid watcher of the dream smp [really only tommyinnit, ranboo and tubbo], and these povs still make me physically cringe every time I see them. Some of the fandom is pretty fuckin weird.
dsmp is full of racists, ur just as bad
Sameee
frrrrr literally everyone on twitter even in dsmp fandom hate dream and his fans
Same
im the same as you, like what was said in the video, it's alright with fictional characters but there's just something not right with doing these povs with irl people 💀💀
what's most crazy is how they get the characters so wrong.

"Tapeworm react is part of every fandom."
Jesus, the kids are insular with the memes nowadays, is this common?🤣
This is literally the first time I’ve heard of the tapeworm thing.
I think it's a tumblr meme. it's likely a parody of a similar format I've seen plenty of times about shit like "the attack on titan characters reacts to u getting pregnant" that seemed more common on early tumblr. I've seen the tapeworm thing many times now, I think it became known in... 2017-18? that's when my social circles started referencing it to be "quirky" lol, so I am unphased by it now
tapeworm thing is an ancient meme from tumblr, its been around for ages
the dsmp fandom is so big, stuff like this was bound to be made eventually
I am actually now OBSESSED with your music and listen to it almost daily on Apple Music. Thank you for making it. You’re very talented, Nick. Thank you for sharing it with us. Your music has actually helped me during some rough times already. Thank you.
I actually really like the content some of the people in the smp make but it’s stuff that’s completely separate from the smp. I can literally never get into it bc the fandom is such a nightmare to me and this just proves it.

Immediately paused the video to listen to your new song. It's so good, man! The depth when you have headphones on. Truly love the vibe of all your songs. Can't wait to see what else will come out in the future. Will be playing this on repeat. (:
Thank you for being respectful when making this video. I went into watching this thinking I was gonna be mad (as a dsmp fan) but I wasn’t! Most people make ableist and homophobic jokes about the creators and their young fans which is really upsetting to see since minecraft and the DSMP are really popular with neurodivergent and queer kids. Your jokes were respectful and you reminded your followers not to harass anyone which I really appreciate.

I’ve seen videos like this for fictional characters which are all fine (some are funny, some are kind of cringy, but they’re fine) but it’s really weird when it’s real people. Same with shipping and stuff. Fine with fictional characters, not fine with real people
It boggles me that these people are publicly fans of jschlatt… I also thought that all of these dudes were like 14, half are my age or older
Everything I've ever learned about Dream or DSMP has been against my will
ok tommy wasnt joking he genuinely was confused about the honorary lesbian thing he got confused he literally paused for a second then got cancelled
Wow another youtuber making fun of teenagers...You didn't even hide their @s which is so weird. I'm not a dream stan and even this makes me uncomfortable as an adult. You'd think as an adult you would have critical thinking skills about what you put out on the internet. This is just so uncomfortable
THE DESCENDANTS SONG FOR THAT SINGING POV GOT ME 💀💀
so glad i stopped being a part of the dream smp community, i couldn't keep up with the lore, there was always someone getting cancelled, and the ships weirded me tf out bro...
i was once part of it, left, became an "anti", then stopped caring abt what they did at all
I'm actually disgusted with myself for liking this shit lol

How I think every member of the Dream SMP would respond to seeing your post about them finding out you have a tapeworm:
Dream: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
Tim: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
Garrett: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
Minecraft Steve: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
Bingo Bongo: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
Nick: "Ew gross what the fuck?" *bans you*
Why do these all feel so much like the 1D imagines from 2010’s Tumblr lmaoooo
this was one of the hardest videos to sit through
As a ex one of these uh, people. No one could tell me that this was weird but looking at it now it like actually scares me
I think the only way to ensure you're not in a tapeworm post is to tell us how you would respond to y/n having a tapeworm and that way theres no need to speculate
I genuinely thought the dream epidemic was over
wait, if you call their names, none of them answer? they all just give you weird looks? lol
I’m having an out of body experience watching this
the tapeworm thing is a meme among fandoms
this whole thing is so strange to me. based on how people talked about them I thought that dream smp was like a minecraft world and those people were characters in some story in it, not ACTUAL PEOPLE
Because they are separate characters! But they well have the same names as the RUclipsrs. Mostly because at first they were normally playing Minecraft so they all called each other by their user names like Philza or Wilbur but then they started to do roleplay and they started to play characters. But because of time sometimes people will say tommy but don't mean the real life tommy but the tommy from the story. Tho usually people just say cc!Tommy -content creator tommy or c!tommy - character tommy
because they are separate characters, the dsmp is scripted and some creators even edit their videos like a movie or TV drama. the actors just keep their names / usernames as their character name. a lot of the acting is improv but the plot is pre-made up (speaking as an ex fan)

Why ppl trying to make Disney channel songs sound emo
I see the POVs of Dream and his cronies and, sure, I hate it, but I'm not super bothered because that's just the kinda fandom they built for themselves (mostly taking about Dream Team).
But then I see CCs like Charlie Slimecicle or Schlatt get brought into the POVs and it makes me want to jump into a public aquarium and chew on a fish in front of all the families with their children who decided to have a fun day at the aquarium on the weekends have to witness me absorb a fish into my bowels.
the last part sounds like you're speaking from experience
This comment makes me so happy
@@awugii Lets just say I'm not allowed in 7 U.S. states and Ohio.
I don’t like Schlatt either but what did Charlie do?
@@kayceeviolet5147 As far as I know, Charlie didn't do anything...? I think OP was referring to the fact that when content creators such as Schlatt and Charlie are brought into DSMP povs it's just...cringe. Majority of the DSMP fandom are known for being sort of wild and I guess fans of Schlatt and Charlie don't like being associated with DSMP? That's my take on it anyways
The pure wheeze i let out when he reached fundy and immediately said "that's when the names get weird", fundy deserves this one he has been missing for months
Would you still live me if I were a tapeworm? I feel like part of these are just making fun of povs and part of them are actually making them, like the imagines of one direction
i was a part of the fandom for like. maybe a year? ish? and even then i couldn't handle these. now that i'm not in the fandom it anymore it's so so much worse.
Dream would probably steal the bandaids instead, and like, start a war or something
