The dangerous part is fringe christian groups go out of their way to target vulnerable people. Gabby was down bad and in a really directionless transition point. While it's clear she's already weaponizing it, I do worry about who is influencing her behind the scenes this time
Yup, she gets to be the ultimate victim while also having ultimate superiority because it’s the authoritative “truth” and everyone who disagrees with her is “objectively wrong” in her eyes. I’m not surprised she went Toxic Christian route rather than using religion in a healthy way TBH. I’m just shocked it took her this long with how self centered she is.
I'm not religious but Gabby's boob talk made me think of Matthew 5:29, "If your right eye causes you to sin, poke it out and throw it away". Jesus literally said dudes need to control yourself. Since I was 13, I have had obvious boobs and I have been shamed for having them. Their volume doesn't make them sexual. Everyone has nipples, why are mine "inappropriate"? I already have to fork out $50+ for a bra, I don't need judgemental bullshit on top of that.
The way breasts, which are quite literally sacks of fat, are so overly sexualized to the point that *children* feel uncomfortable with having them is so sad. I’ve had large breasts since I was 14. It was something I was overly conscious of, bullied for, and shamed for. I wear oversized shirts to this day (as a 29 year old) because I feel so self-conscious about someone perceiving my breasts. I hate that I can’t wear cute & trendy (modest) clothes because everyone assumes I’m trying to show off my breasts. I can’t wait for my breast reduction 😭
maybe I'm not there in the video yet, but it's making me think of the Jessie Smiles incidents differently too. I honestly thought she was just a bitch who wanted to make excuses for why she was friends with that putrid guy. Not that she genuinely might have blamed Jessie, because that's sick. but...
I mean logically she could say it different in a way that doesn’t seem so hateful but I get what she saying like the whole show my body means I’m confident is complete bullshit because in reality you are using your sexuality to empower yourself by exposing because you know people are gonna look some people don’t wanna admit that it’s just the truth people do like the attention they get until it’s negative
Influencers: (gets canceled) I'm taking a break. Influencers months/year later: (comes back) I found Jesus.✝ Me: I'm still gonna hold, you accountable for what you do.
As someone who's had to spend some time in the past in a place to get stabilized from mental illness, Gabbie's delivery of all her religious material has a familiar cadence and emphasis that you could hear up and down the hallways a few minutes/hours before the staff would come by with a sedative.
Lmao remember when Gabbie talked about how “funny” it was to have her cleaners clean the c*m stains off of her bedroom mirrors but Megan having it on her face isn’t okay.
@Alexacake19 bro honestly, when she was manic on tiktok, her house looked a wreck like her cats were walking around things to get to their food. so much clutter. art supplies and crap all over the damn floor. i felt bad for whoever has to clean it.
She’s still so hateful toward Rachel Oates because she is jealous of her scientific intelligence and artistic talent. Also, Rachel is actually good at and knowledgeable about poetry and Gabbie can’t take it.
This makes me so frustrated because "modesty" is so subjective and changing. At one point, wearing pants or showing your ankles was considered immodest for women. Sexualizing women's bodies and making them responsible for the arousal of men is deeply unfair, misogynistic and gross. If men can't handle seeing a woman wearing a push-up bra under a tank top in public, then they need to "be respectful" and keep themselves home. I'm an adult. I am not responsible for anyone else's children or husbands. This is the same logic people try to use about gay people holding hands or kissing in public- "What will I tell my kids?" I dunno, the truth? Reality? Respect? It's not that hard. If someone wants to dress modestly, and that makes them feel respectful and comfortable, excellent! But the second you expect everyone else to abide by your ideals, you are crossing the line. Ugh this also frustrates me because it's the same gross comments I hear from my own family about breastfeeding. "She just took her boob out at the table!" Yes, to feed her baby. At the dinner table. Where people eat food. How someone can sexualize a mother breastfeeding a literal infant is beyond me. Anyway, great video as always. I think your predictions are going to be very accurate, unfortunately. Gotta love the cancelled internet influencer to religious zealot pipeline.
(Christianity-trauma speaker here) I am okay with spirituality. If it gets someone through the day…. Hell, yeah. Go for it. When it becomes damaging, judgmental, and organized, I am saddling up on my highest atheistic horse.
I really do not understand in what fantasy world people are dressing provocatively enough to traumatize kids just in their daily life. Usually if people are dressed super skimpily, they're on the way to a party or another event where it's appropriate or they're teenage girls, in which case I don't think think it's useful to go "But think of the children!" to literal children. If someone wants to protect kids from sexualization, then advocate for better sex ed and teaching them consent from a very early age, because exactly 0 kids are saved from childhood sexual trauma by all women collectively dressing like pilgrims.
there is definitely this phenomenon of christian women who are abnormally concerned with their bodies and assume everyone else is too. my mom is like this as well where she assumes every action a woman does is influenced by her body. a couple days ago we were talking about big brother 26, and she spent a lot of that time talking about how she thinks the women's actions and intentions are based on how they feel about their bodies. like she told me angela (old and fat) is bitter because makensy (young and thin) is prettier than her. not once has it even been so much as hinted at that there's any jealousy. my mom is literally in her 50s and she still thinks like this. like she truly has no clue that there can be social dynamics between two or more women that don't involve their appearances
I wrote a lonnnng comment on a recent video made by Caroline Easom about JK Rowling's blatant misogyny and how she shows it in the way she writes female characters about this exact thing. My mom is/was the same way and it gave me a ton of inherited internalized misogyny for a lot of my life, to the point where I'd be consciously comparing my physical and non physical attributes to any and all women I would see at any given time, like it was an ingrained reflex that I wouldn't realize I was doing until I'd done it sometimes. This was bc my mom would constantly ask me, unprompted and out of nowhere, "omg am I THAT big?" Or "I look better than HER, right???" as she'd gesture subtly or indicate in some other way a poor random woman just standing there minding her own business. She convinced me that ALL women did this internally. It took a ton of work to unlearn that shit along with the constant tape of negative self talk playing in my head in her voice. Women in that generation and older were VICIOUS to one another and I'm very relieved to see that as time has gone on and we've grown more aware as a society of these toxic systemic issues, that the younger generation seems to struggle with these things far less than we did.
4:00 - I understand an echo chamber, but I also hope you recognize that your previous GH videos were super important at the time to fill in the blanks or provide an accurate timeline and correct misinformation that was being pushed out by her, her stans, etc.
I actually think this is her being truthful about what she believes. She does these narcissistic mental gymnastics where whatever belief she has must confirm to her that she is special. Like she really thought she was gonna be a Taylor Swift level celebrity, and she said she was going to “save the world” with whatever influence she got from that. She “manifested” that. Whenever she had her manic episode, it was right after she realized this might not be true because I remember she lost that small artist power bowl contest or whatever she was doing directly before having the public episode. That’s why she was manically saying “help me help us,” which basically meant “make me famous so that I can save the world.” Then she started to say she wasn’t as successful as she thought she should be because she was “ahead of her time like Picasso.” I think the religion thing is another narcissistic form of mental gymnastics to cope with the fact that others do not find her as special or talented as she thinks she is. She tells herself she is special because she is chosen by god and thinks she will be rewarded in the next life for her faithfulness. She tends to follow whatever delusion makes her feel the most comfortable with herself and her life, and I think this one will stick around indefinitely because it’s something that can’t be proven or disproven. She’ll probably stay in it. Sorry, I just find her so interesting. lol it’s a guilty interest. I could write a whole dissertation on my theories about why she behaves the way she behaves.
I had a severe manic episode and 'found god' for a handful of months. It's an actual symptom of mania. I hope she has professional help because this has been years of her being all over the place and struggling. She might seem happy but it's not happiness, it's mania and it's awful
Yeah I get that vibe too with the uptick in religious posts the past few weeks obviously it’s not as erratic to the same extent as her previous episodes but there is still that vibe. I do think she does believe in god but obviously I think the bipolar and manic episodes have really made her sort of become more fanatical about god & Jesus. I can’t help but empathize for Gabbie because I do know a lot more about her struggles behind the scenes than most people know.
@@Thomassteven00Yea, you hit the nail on the head in your other comment too, it does peak in the summer months, etc. There's so much to it, if you've experienced it you see it from a mile away in other people. A manic episode can worsen and turn into psychosis, etc. It also gets worse overtime when not treated and it's so sad seeing her still go through all this.
@@WithBailey I think her symptoms truly heighten during the summer which is common for manic episodes I do hope it doesn’t escalate again. I can’t help but empathize for her because of the things I’ve learned about her like I recently learned that a few years ago during a trip home a relative had sexually abused her and I’ve been wondering if that is to her spiraling over the years plus other factors as well.
@@Thomassteven00 That makes a lot of sense. I remember in her old apartment she had a dishwasher that she didn't even know was there for like 6 months because she didn't see it, and that her Therapist said it's from trauma. I have a lot of the same issues; a lot of these kind of mental health issues are rooted in untreated childhood trauma and trauma & stress in general. Being manic/depressive, or at least the symptoms she clearly shows, takes such a toll when untreated and can turn into so much more.
I grew up in Spain so maybe my threshold for modesty is different, but naked bodies are not inherently sexual. My family would go to nudist beaches, and now I'm comfortable around nakedness, it doesn't shock me or turn me on. it's normal and natural.
yeah the u.s. has a huuuuuge purity culture that goes all the way back to the puritans who moved from england. it's really frustrating as an american who thinks bodies are just bodies lol -_-
I’m sorry, Gabbie now has a problem with women showing off their bodies but it was ok when she did it? I remember saying that she has a lot of confidence showing pictures on Instagram which appeared nude but covered everything. Like why is she always so hypocritical to other women? And I just checked and those photos are still on her Instagram 🤦♀️, I can’t with the hypocrisy
@miriamnah6624 It's one thing to change your mind. It's another thing completely... to decide youve changed your mind and are now morally superior to everyone else. It's f*cking ridiculous lol.
@@miriamnah6624I hate when people say this. Yes she changed her mind, but to disparage people doing things you used to do IS HYPOCRISY! Her not acknowledging that she also did those exact things and weaving that into her soapbox video makes it an issue. “I used to do ____ but now that I am turning to faith I just don’t think anyone should be doing that” is different than “you’re you are flaunting your body and need to turn to Jesus”
@@miriamnah6624 changing your mind and then going on a tirade against everyone that was like you is usually an untreated trauma response or a desperate need to "prove yourself" to the new group, not actually changing your mind. Or else why would she be so damn vitriolic about it?
Gabbie’s struggle to find authentically who she is and of course throwing herself completely into Christian faith (not just religion, but Christianity) reminds me so much of a friend I had who spent her whole life hopping from one thing to the other, often contradicting herself, often seeming like a hypocrite, also expressing that she finally FOUND HERSELF. Sure she had passions that remained consistent through her life, but she always changed up her identity. Always changing up how she wanted to be viewed and what she believed in. She made the recent hard core move to Christianity and God and Jesus, after a short “hoe phase”. Watching Gabbie go from “feminist, everyone is out to get me because I’m a WOMAN!” To “worshipper, everyone is out to get me because I’m an OPPRESSED CHRISTIAN!” Is the same thing my friend did. If Gabbie wants attention, love, sympathy, etc, she’ll easily find it by spouting off Bible verses, condemning the “outside world” and making gospel songs. But I think like with all things it just won’t be enough. Those Christian fans won’t be enough for her, just like all the other fans weren’t enough. If she truly found God and was happy she’d be content to just be in that bubble with herself and her community, but she has to TELL everyone about it all the time. TL;DR same old same old 😅
Also I’m just waiting to see if she crosses into good ol Christian Nationalism and becomes a lot more right wing. She had posted a video of herself singing the National anthem and commenting about somehow being the reason Biden dropped out (obviously a joke) and it did not seem to go over well, since she deleted the video. She still has a very loud LGBTQ+ base, and I think she knows that, but eventually if she follows this far enough, I can just see her alienating that fanbase to appease the Right wing Christians who will flock to her.
@@FlyingSwatters She's already been saying words like "degeneracy" which is *mostly* used by christian nationalists. Not everyone who talks about "degeneracy" or calls other people "degenerates" is a christian nationalist, of course, but... again, most people who talk like that are in those groups or spend time with them...
@@notshardainthe way she comments on how everything is porn or murder and everything is BAD and she essentially needed to find God to realize it all, as if she wasn’t participating in the exact culture. And she can change! Of course she can say “actually that wasn’t me, I was just doing what I thought people wanted” but we know that’s not the case lol Just keeping that eye out. Interesting to see if she goes full out or if she keeps it hidden enough to stream to teenagers and young 20somethings.
@@FlyingSwatterssome of her statements started sounding slightly terfy. And knowing her past comments about trans people, I predict it won’t be long before we start hearing overt terf talking points from her.
And just one year ago was having a manic episode, painting her driveway while wearing ill-fitting lingerie. How dare she not think of her neighbors' husbands! 😂
The gym is such a horrible example. When I went to the gym I wore leggings and a big tshirt everytime and guys still were absolute weirdos constantly. It made me so uncomfortable I stopped going honestly. It truly doesn't even matter what you're wearing. If a guy is gross hes going to be gross regardless.
I got a lecture for 10yrs about “protecting my brothers” at Bible camp. She’s just regurgitating purity culture that is shown to be harmful. The bedsheet to a swimming pool-I mean that IS what purity culture says-well they want a one piece with shorts and maybe even a long sleeve rash guard. It’s not modesty it’s purity culture. It is also very dehumanizing to men because purity culture requires men to be incapable and infantile.
the reason i have such a peaceful relationship with my religion is that i was never forced by anyone or shoved into it by anyone. i know so many people who have religious trauma from their childhood and who never had a choice to even question what they were taught. i think this attitude will never help anyone: you can't teach or ask anyone to ~believe~. you can inform people about the holy books that exist, the history of the various prophets, the historical testimonies, the different ways [insert religion] works in [insert region]. but believing... you can't force anyone to do that, and doing that does way more harm than good. i wish people would just let people come to religion naturally, if they want to, and that our approach towards people who are not religious would just be respect, as we've been taught to treat every person.
In high school I had a vp who suggested (teenaged) girls not wear push-up bras. At the same school, another vp nixed short-shorts for girls (again, children). We knew it was wrong and some boys wore short-shorts to school to prove that it was a gender stereotype. In middle school (grades 6-8), our band teacher sent out a multi-page letter to students and parents that explicitly said girls should not wear short skirts as it was DISTRACTING. We all faced the teacher.
“Everyone will bend the knee, babes” is sending me through a wave of feelings I can barely explain. Also, is Gabby going tradcath? That is my worse nightmare
I’m right there with you, queen :( I’m an atheist and don’t have religious trauma but that even made me feel disgusted. It’s impossible to have a productive and respectful conversation with people like her. She’s 33 going on 80 with this tradcath energy and doubt it’s bringing her as much hApPiNeSs as she claims.
I think much of this is a western cultural issue as well. My foster brother is a child of Russian Siberian immigrants, and I am from a native America family, we were in care homes together and in our respective cultures prior to the system nudity was not thought of anything more than a body simply just existing. Saunas and sweats with butt ass full nude cousins and aunties and siblings were simply just us existing completely outside of a sexualized scenario……for both of us, around 10-11 years old, the idea that this was suddenly inappropriate and a nude body was something to be deeply ashamed of , was rather alien and instilled a lot of fear of bodies around me around that time both fear of others body and my own. Not to draw a odd parallel back to religion, but it really gave that eve and co didn’t understand that nakedness was wrong and shameful until it was pointed out to them. So I get a little touchy n defensive when ppl immediately conflate nudity with being inherent to sexualization at any age. Recently I was at a local gym’s sauna with a acquaintance and we ran into my brother’s biological mom, sat next to her full nude in the sauna. I didn’t notice until the person I was with pointed out to me how weird and uncomfortable that must’ve been for me. I was like…..no! Not really. I am not drawn to looking at her naked, we’re not in the sauna to be weird and intimate, she’s not shoving her boobs in my face and no one is begging for another to look at their ass. No one, to my knowledge, felt offput but that until that person pointed out we’re all naked , which again seems to me to be very contingent on cultural values and context. So I do appreciate the nuance you have when it comes to wanting for folx to understand modesty and appropriateness around young children. For the record, I don’t feel like the average person is so braindead and lacking in situational social skills to be all “LOOK AT MY BOOBIES OUT MY TANK TOP!!!!” at the local Starbucks while a mom is behind u in line waiting on a coffee and some hot cocoa or a smoothie for the little ones. I see why you brought it up, absolutely, bc nuance and context is so crucial to understanding the world around us. But like I said, based on my own unique experiences with cultural nudity and nonsexual nudity I sometimes jump to be sort of defensive and bring these points up. I loved your video sajak!!!!! Xoxoxoxo
Also clothes mainly exist for warmth, protection and support. Modesty was not why clothes were invented. That came way later in various different forms.
Yeah, a lot of American culture is prudish and focused on making people feel bad or weird about their bodies. The amount of focus on what other people wear and how much is ridiculous. It just reinforces A LOT of misogyny because it treats women’s bodies as inherently sexual and victim blames people who are harassed.
I am already so exhausted by the Goody Hanna era. You cannot make good art as a censorious conservative, which is absolutely where this is heading. She’s already going from “but what about the CHILDREN?!?!?” to “women are responsible for causing men’s eyeballs (and other parts) to stray.” There’s no convert more exhausting than a recent convert, is there?
Hot take: let bodies just be bodies. Kids being around someone showing cleavage or wearing booty shorts isn’t an issue unless they are actively being sexual around the kids. By sheltering kids from people wearing more revealing clothes it teaches them shame about their bodies and will most likely cause them to sexualize people more as adults.
Okay, now I’m to the boob talk and I just gotta say, she’s two seconds away from “well what was she wearing though?” Which, as we know, wouldn’t be the first time. Edit: lol you said this immediately after I posted this comment 🙃
The argument will be forever circular - to people who are religious, it simply isn't subjective. For a believer to admit that their beliefs are subjective is tantamount to them admitting that some other belief may be true, which in turn cancels out their own belief. It's just one of those things you have to accept about arguing with those with "beliefs." They quite simply "believe" that their "beliefs" are 100% true.
Gabbie starting to sound like every fundie I grew up surrounded by is so wild. It’s so great to hear people deconstruct those points and see how absolutely insidious fundie culture/beliefs are.
The way Gabbie reacted to Jessi being raped, and the fact that she’s not really sorry for that, just shows to me that her “progressive” values back in the day were only about making herself look good to her audience.
Also, Gabbie, as a queer woman, I can acknowledge when I’m attracted to a woman without being like “can you cover up, I won’t be able to control myself.” Like, I’m able to control my urges??? I expect the same from men who are attracted to women. And well people in general, but Gabbie has always seemed to go harder on shaming women.
Also also, I’m pretty sure topless beaches are a thing in countries like Spain. Breasts aren’t inherently sexual (again, I say that as someone who is attracted to them). I respect that everyone has different standards for their own bodies, but can we just stop shaming each other??
As someone from mn it was so real, especially the grab a beer and go into the basement. I remember as a kid a funnel cloud going directly over the house and my dad and uncle hanging out on the front porch with some scotch watching the storm roll in lol
came here from Rachael Oates😁happy i found your channel, sidenote: ur eyebrows look so beautiful😍, that's literally how I'm trying to get my brows to look lol
The thing with Gabbie is that I definitely believe that SHE believes what she is saying. That's her pattern. But, how can she believe that we believe her religious views when she has not repented or even acknowledged the things she's done in the past? How long do we have till she slides down the alt right pipeline? 👀
I think she’s right there at that pipeline based on a few comments she’s made 😭 And I swear that Meg Thee Stallion tik tok (which she deleted) on top of her being a raging misogynist, is also a dog whistle since Meg is openly supporting and promoting Kamala Harris’ campaign. And ugh, I don’t see as many hardcore Christians be left wing as they are right wing.
As someone who grew up in a military environment, I wonder what Gabbie's take on what we called 'Ranger Panties' - which are very short work out shorts with slits along the sides. And they're given to soldiers by the Military. And yes, sometimes you could see some butt cheek while people were out on runs, but I don't remember anyone caring because it's workout attire. Or maybe because they're men...
It can actually be pretty common for people struggling with bipolar disorder or other mental illnesses to become obsessed with religion. When it comes to Gabi I do have to remind myself to be kind, she has been through so many attention seeking phases in her time online, her ability to rewrite her own history while proselytizing to her audience is a new low. I have had issues with her since she promoted her disordered eating to her young audience back in the day, not holding my breath that she will ever be a good person.
This is true. The phenomenon is called Hyper-religiosity and is a known symptom of Bipolar. How much of it is part of attention seeking, how much of it is a grift, how much is mental illness, and how much of it is Gabbie genuinely buying into purity culture is had to determine. Doesn't make what she's saying any less harmful or any more legitimate, regardless of the underlying reason
something that i heard on a podcast is that a lot of horrible people / people who have generally done shitty things turn to religion and turn to it hard because it allows them “forgiveness” and lets them assuage the guilt they feel without having to actually put in work to change and make amends. they can go to church every week and be forgiven without ever once having to face the person they’ve wronged.
You mentioned how she won’t admit her audience is children, but I vividly remember in Gabbie’s “professional makeup organization” video, her camera man makes a joke and calls her audience “hanjobs” and she responds by saying “nooo they’re children” this was a few years back and in my eyes is her absolutely acknowledging that her audience is mostly underage
dude, the way gabbie talked about jesus and god in that tik tok comment has jehovah's witness written allll over it. i wouldnt be surprised if she got sucked into their cult
my theory on gabbie is that she's trying her absolute hardest to get in with the Christian (brittney dawn, classically abby, etc) crowd because she knows that she can generally avoid people successfully bringing up her past behavior in that kind of a space. cause all of this feels like regurgitated brittney dawn "i once dressed inappropriately but now that I've found god i don't" and i don't know it feels disingenuous like she doesn't even seem to really care that much. cause i can agree that the way you might dress at a club probably isn't the way you should dress at a place where children are present, but i don't think that's a far-out idea and it feels like gabbie started with that because she knows it'll be the thing people can agree on the most.
ummmm Sajak for PRESIDENT?! (not actually bc you don’t deserve that hell hole of a job) BUT DAMN this was so good 👏👏 thank you for always having common sense, it’s genuinely so important to have people, especially women, have a platform and use it this way and to vocalize these messages/opinions/facts 🩷
I love reading the bible because it disproves most Christians and they get so angry I love it :D in this case it's Matthew 5:29 (If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.). Just so much for "Bible based" Gabbie >:)
as someone who was in THAT discord…it’s always really interesting to hear you reflect on the discourse. We were all 100% being conditioned into feeling so intensely against Gabbie. I’m glad you seem to be in a place where it’s easier for you & not so constant 🖤
i mean, to be fair, i’m 100% responsible for my own participation and perpetuating a lot of the unnecessary rhetoric, but it really is wild that even at my big age you really can get swept up in stuff like that.
@@fatsajakYeah parasocial hate is just as unhealthy if not more unhealthy than parasocial love I’ve always felt the extreme Stans and extreme haters are both equally wrong and unhealthy. Because at the end of the day she is a human being we all don’t really know personally who has made mistakes and poor judgement calls (it would be a different conversation if she did the things James Charles, Jeffree Star, David Dobrik, Shane Dawson, Cody Ko, or Colleen Ballinger did tho). I think the fans need to realize she has made some bad choices that did cause harm and I think the extreme haters (the word haters is so cringy but I can’t think another word) take the criticism and disdain did take it to unhealthy levels. I’ve always felt like I’ve been trapped in awkward limbo with Gabbie a sense of fascination and enjoyment by her art and persona but also a sense of disappointment and frustration with her mistakes and bad choices. In the end I truly hate the all or nothing mentality social media has and it doesn’t just apply to Gabbie and other creators it’s also opinions on topics as well like the whole debate on whether supporting Kamala Harris is right because she has been too neutral with the Palestine & Israel situation.
I knew Gabbie fell into the "cancelled" influencer to Christian influencer pipeline. Still, I did not expect the Girl Defined arc. This is a lucrative, yet minimal effort grift that will easily get her praise and adulation simply by dressing it up as born again Christian conservatism. Often influencers use it as a shield to deflect reasonable criticisms and it's gross. I expected nothing more from GH tbh.
gabbie will never find herself by looking everywhere but inside herself. This is only going to last until the honeymoon phase wears off of this "discovery" imo.
Anyone else remember Gabbie saying that when she eats edibles she has these intense religious times in her life?.. cos this is all sounding familiar Also, of course religion is subjective because it’s been legitimately theorised that if you destroyed every science related book and every religious book, the only one that would come back the same is science because religion is stories told from person to person.
A couple months ago she said on Facebook she had a relapse after a haircut went wrong so that could be possible. I do get the vibe she’s in some manic state again due to the uptick in religious posts the past few weeks I just hope she doesn’t get erratic again.
Idk, I watched some of her videos and an interview she did locally, and she looks healthier than ever before. Dig deeper because I think she's just actually in a good place now. She doesn't seem manic about her faith currently and that is very different than being in a delusional psychosis, and I feel realizing that difference is very important for both religious and mental health discourse.
@@TheKatarinaGiselle I’m talking about the uptick in religious posts and clinging to purity & modesty it’s showing the signs of being manic again and extreme devotion to religion can be a sign of being in a manic episode. Her symptoms have always peaked during the summer. Yes she’s not screaming and being erratic but it’s still pretty subtle and noticeable.
@@Thomassteven00 I still think we should root for people, especially mentally ill ppl. Right now, my older sister who is a narcissistic sociopath keeps insinuating she isn't living much longer. She is 43 and it hurts me that she uses it as emotional blackmail, but I can't just stop hoping or encouraging change. I can love from a distance. And Gabbie is somebody who may be manic, but she also kifjt be fine. The way she is speaking about her faith hasn't sounded manic to me, and while I no longer participate in church, my family does and I will go sometimes..and to me she sounds like the average christian right now. I majored in psychology and I understand that it can be difficult to tell, but imo she is not currently manic. And I think it is in her best interest that she stays involved in her community and less online (or at least doesn't read the comments). She needs more than a year offline. As do kajy people, tbh. Society would be better off if the internet stopped existing (esp for the long run).
I know I commented this a few weeks ago I swear I’m not a creep 😂 you look so pretty lately Sajak! And the “moving blind lighting” is actually pretty soothing in my opinion lol it’s a total west/midwest summer vibe
Sajak to me is like my sister telling me about her unhinged coworker and it brings me a special sense of joy that I don’t have to witness any of it and process it through her experience 😂☕️
not a psychologist but part of me thinks *she* used to dress less modest and pull her shorts up too much to get attention from other peoples husbands and finally learned thats not great, and thats why she’s bringing it up. because thats so specific lol. maybe thats why *she* would dress like that in the past so she assumes that must be the reason for other women?
@@larissabrglum3856 interestingly enough, there was a study done where the scientists took brain scans of people who were experiencing intense religious fervor(intense feelings of closeness to god, speaking in tongues, etc) and compared those brain scans to people who were experiencing intense symptoms of schizophrenia. The scans were nearly identical in terms of the most active areas of the brain.
My least favourite thing about the whole "being naked at the gym" argument is that actually nobody dresses like that to go to the gym 😭😭 im sure there are a few odd ducks but wearing a sports bra and tight leggings is not equivalent to half naked
There is a distinct borderline quality to Gabby's behavioural patterns that you've identified. The biggest clue is always the misplaced, uncontrolled rage and anger. The unstable sense of self and lack of identity is another, and often there is a narcissistic component, also. I don't think she intentionally puts on these different identities; I'm pretty sure she feels like they are true to how she feels at the time. But she will eventually discard all of them. Splitting is another manifestation - the inability to hold opposing thoughts (organized religion is very good at promoting this: there is one "absolute truth", things and people are either good or bad, etc). It also means that often the thing that used to be good, great, the best, all of a sudden becomes the worst in their world. I completely agree with you that, while the elements of the pattern may change, the pattern itself will always remain the same.
"But she will eventually discard all of them. Splitting is another manifestation - the inability to hold opposing thoughts " yeah great observation Pynchon.
"It looks so trashy" just means "I'm jealous." Sure, I have seen people wearing outfits before and been judgemental of them, but I didn't say anything. Live your life. Whenever I see older women clutching their pearls and telling younger people to "cover up" or "be modest" I instantly think, "She's bitter." I was young once and weighed 115 lb and wore next-to-nothing and I can't do that anymore. (Although I am technically back to my HS weight after taking Ozempic, but it turns out that your body at 45 after losing 85 lb does not look the same as it did when you were a teenager. AT ALL! 🤣) And these Karens almost always claim that they're doing it to protect children! No you're not. You're realizing that you'll never look like that again and you want to shame these young women just to try to make yourself feel better. It's very obvious.
Exactly. Whenever someone says something to the effect of: “think about the children!” I think about how my siblings and I used to take communal baths because it was easier than doing it individually. I think about how I didn’t know what sex was until I started sex ed in middle school because my parents never sexualized bodies in front of me: bodies were just bodies. The more we pearl-clutch and bemoan about the children, the more we are scandalizing the human body to children who wouldn’t view the human body as anything but a body. Purity culture is creating a problem to then provide a solution. It’s asinine!
Yeah, she flat out admitted that now that she’s in her 30s she thinks showing a lot of skin is unacceptable, which a) bull, you thought it was fine until a few months ago, b) were you still fifteen or twenty five you would not feel that way, so how about you cram it and let people live? Shakespeare said it best: dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
i was literally trying to explain what to do during tornado weather to a friend of mine earlier today because she lives in a state that almost never gets tornadoes but was experiencing her first tornado watch. i should have just linked her to this video, you explained it perfectly 10/10.
"Jason & Chad At The Smoothie Bar" deserves to be a Neo-sunshine pop hit with some choice bars in the Grimey Summer Heat Street Mix with a couple throwback features, maybe Missy + Kim?
@@JudgeJudyandExecutioner9000 at least with worship music she gets to choose the key so maybe she can pick something that will complement her voice for once.
I think I believe in god/higher being because the idea that we just… end when we die is too heartbreaking and scary. My dad died from cancer in 2022 and the thought that he’s just completely gone- no soul or spirit or whatever to watch out for me is too much to bear. I want to and do believe he’s in heaven or whatever constitutes such. I want to believe I’ll see him again and it won’t be the deteriorated husk of himself that I watched die but my papa that was strong and full of life and love. I hate organized religion and the cesspools it’s become but faith itself? I need that shit else ending it all looks too tempting
Remember when she befriended Johnny Snow over his atheist stances? Worlds ago. When people start leaning into religion so LOUDLY it’s either 1. A grift or 2. Some type of crisis. Preachy people also just give me the ick. Plus they never want to read the good parts of the book.
I follow Gabbie and I really get the vibe she’s in some sort of manic state again since she’s been posting a lot more about religion the past few weeks I do think her mania peaks during summer based off the past I hope it doesn’t escalate and this is it. I do wonder if religion is something that will fade out for her eventually because Gabbie does seem like one to “cult hop” and go through phases because she still hasn’t found her true authentic self like you’ve said before. I think when talking about outfit choices being too skimpy for children and husbands that can be a very slippery slope.
Hopefully the biggest difference if she finds herself in a manic situation is that she is around family, and in a much different environment than when she had her last episode. Hopefully she is just feeling passionate and has people around her to make her feel stable. She was SO alone when she had her big public episode. I think even Sajak once commented on the fact that all the other situations (that all happened in august and summer time) were less extreme because she had her boyfriend around and still had people close to her that could maybe interact with her and help her in whatever ways they could. She also could just be seeing the positive uptick that her speaking on religion is bringing her (I don’t have tiktok so I don’t know what videos or content she’s posting on there vs insta) so she’s riding that wave and only posting that because she knows she’ll get people who “get it”.
@@FlyingSwatters Yeah I do hope this is the extent because I really don’t want her to have another huge episode or breakdown again because it’s truly not good for her health and it’s sad and triggering for people like me to see like I remember during series in summer 2021 and during her manic episode I had a lot of crippling anxiety during that time just witnessing and hearing about everything. The silver lining is this time she’s around family to help her I still wonder if this fanatical religion and lean into purity will fade out and she will discover something else because she does tend to hop onto different things because I still feel she jumps to different things to see what sticks because she still has no idea of who she really is and what she really wants or believes.
@@Thomassteven00 No it really isn’t good for her, and I’m not a fan, and I disagree with a lot of her choices but I do hope she can find a nice space for herself where she can just enjoy the life she’s making, whatever that direction takes her. I think being back home and out of the LA environment was probably the best step for her. You can make art and music and be creative anywhere in the world! I think you can really see where her head is with religion based on the verses she really focuses on and her gospel songs. A lot of those songs are about having “somebody” (God in this case) still support her and hold her up and be there for her. After a long time with no real friends, and no support and feeling lost and alone and betrayed by a community she was in, it kind of makes sense that the support of “God has me, God will take care of me” is so significant to her. She always puts too much of her soul into her lyrics 😅 you can always tell exactly what she’s feeling and the headspace she’s in.
You know who doesn't give a sh*'t about adult outfits? Children. My 3yo nephew doesn't know what modesty is. He's mostly nekkid when I see him (at his home) because he doesn't want to wear them. It doesn't even register for him that I may or may not have my tits out. That's something we adults project onto children.
Um, Gabbie, didn't your Bible say that if men are too tempted they should pluck their eyes out, instead of being creeps who ogle women? Is that objective, too? If so, I can get behind that. Otherwise, stop picking and choosing what's "truth" and what's hyperbole. Ugh.
31:15 I can literally hear the sleep still in her voice. She woke up and immediately began screaming misogyny into her phone. What a deeply sad individual.
I FEEL LIKE GABBIE IS TOO EASILY INFLUENCED! Once again, Gabbie hasnt changed..the only thing that has changed for Gabbie is the issue and topics she is complaining about. Wanting to be cool and mimick someone she thinks is cool and admires, way of thinking. Someone she thinks is the coolest thing in earth probably thinks this way so shes gotta say all this junk in order to impress them. Shes such a chameleon and has NO sense of self or what she really stands for.
35:37 Low key I'm happy I didn't get into dressing up until later because now I'm almost 30 and while everyone else is getting tired of it, I'm in the "having fun" stage. We all move through life differently. Well except Gabbie, she's following the crunchy to conservative mom pipeline just she's her own toddler
Gabbie Hanna's problem has always been that she assumes that everybody thinks like Gabbie Hanna. Jessi Smiles is crying? She's looking for a reason to get emotional, because that's what Gabbie would do. Rachel Oates is critiquing her poetry? She's just trying to bring someone down, because that's what Gabbie would do. Women are wearing sports bras and shorts at the gym? They're trying to be provocative and catch male attention, because that's what Gabbie would be looking to do if she dressed that way. I also love that she has apparently found Jesus (when you've centered every other man on the planet, why not him) but she's skipped the bit about 'judge not, lest ye be judged'. It was from a pretty famous TED talk that JC gave, or so I understand
I grew up in Christian Nationalism, it's a trip. I'm always so heartened to see when folks are paying attention to this stuff. It felt like for so long nobody would see or talk about it. Now there are documentaries. 🤯
she found a life hack: you don't need to ask for forgiveness from everyone you hurt if Jesus said you good. There will definitely not be any consequences of past actions if you say Jesus enough.
Gabbie is still who she has always been. At the core, there has been no change. Her essence is still exactly the same. Self centered, self absorbed, self righteous and never EVER wrong. And I can relate to all of that. In my early 20s I was a lot like that. I started to grow up, experienced a few shitty things, found my own spiritual practice and I slowly became the woman I am today. I’m not perfect at all but I am aware of the ways in which I’ve grown as a person, matured and developed a level of empathy for others that I didn’t really have before. My family and the people around me have also recognized this growth over the years. I grew up, decided I didn’t like being so cold and selfish, and leaned more into giving instead of taking. What I’m saying is that it seems Gabbie hasn’t undergone this growth in maturity yet, no matter how much she pretends that she has. The religion thing is fake, because if it was really real to her, it would be clear. I’m not so sure Gabbie believes in A God, I think Gabbie sees herself as a god, or an extension of a god, and that is more toxic than anything. I know people like her and they’re unbearable lol it is what it is.
@@Maiden_to_mother I wonder if Gabbie Hanna views God in a way that means SHE is special and chosen. The way she writes about this relationship she has with God is that he’s this father figure who is always right there with her, guiding her literal every step, answering her literal prayers, speaking LITERALLY to her and to her alone. So in a way, yes she is this extension of God, but only because she is so CHOSEN by him. She has to speak about it because she’s chosen, she’s special, God loves her the most obviously. Her prayer journal entries on insta show a very obsessive worshipping of God and thanking God for everything and it’s so wild to see.
Ah, religion is just her next way to pretend she's the victim. Got it.
The dangerous part is fringe christian groups go out of their way to target vulnerable people. Gabby was down bad and in a really directionless transition point. While it's clear she's already weaponizing it, I do worry about who is influencing her behind the scenes this time
@@ruminationstation4200and she does have a platform…
Yup, she gets to be the ultimate victim while also having ultimate superiority because it’s the authoritative “truth” and everyone who disagrees with her is “objectively wrong” in her eyes. I’m not surprised she went Toxic Christian route rather than using religion in a healthy way TBH. I’m just shocked it took her this long with how self centered she is.
Also it’s another thing for her to feel superior over 🙄
There's a built in persecution complex for her to step right into. How convenient eh
her equating the eyes of children with the eyes of men is screaming predatory purity culture. no thank you, classically gabbie. been there, done that.
but cosplaying purity culture
I'm not religious but Gabby's boob talk made me think of Matthew 5:29, "If your right eye causes you to sin, poke it out and throw it away". Jesus literally said dudes need to control yourself.
Since I was 13, I have had obvious boobs and I have been shamed for having them. Their volume doesn't make them sexual. Everyone has nipples, why are mine "inappropriate"? I already have to fork out $50+ for a bra, I don't need judgemental bullshit on top of that.
As a fellow “obvious boobs” owner: 💯
Yes! This! I'm like why can men run shirtless, but I, as a boob owner, can't run in a sports bra without it being considered inappropriate
Same here! Got my period at 11 and I was a C cup at 12. When I was pregnant with my first son I got up to a 40F! There's no hiding that. 😂😂😂
The way breasts, which are quite literally sacks of fat, are so overly sexualized to the point that *children* feel uncomfortable with having them is so sad. I’ve had large breasts since I was 14. It was something I was overly conscious of, bullied for, and shamed for. I wear oversized shirts to this day (as a 29 year old) because I feel so self-conscious about someone perceiving my breasts. I hate that I can’t wear cute & trendy (modest) clothes because everyone assumes I’m trying to show off my breasts. I can’t wait for my breast reduction 😭
And to add, children don't sexualize human (female) bodies... I hate this argument of "there are children".
Of course Gabbie is blaming women for men’s actions, she has not changed in the past 10 fucking years
maybe I'm not there in the video yet, but it's making me think of the Jessie Smiles incidents differently too. I honestly thought she was just a bitch who wanted to make excuses for why she was friends with that putrid guy. Not that she genuinely might have blamed Jessie, because that's sick. but...
I mean logically she could say it different in a way that doesn’t seem so hateful but I get what she saying like the whole show my body means I’m confident is complete bullshit because in reality you are using your sexuality to empower yourself by exposing because you know people are gonna look some people don’t wanna admit that it’s just the truth people do like the attention they get until it’s negative
Influencers: (gets canceled) I'm taking a break.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
yuuuuuup!

I thought I saw Jesus yesterday
But it was just Gabbie Hannah.
...not sure if I am disappointed or blessed.
Kinda both.

Yall gotta get off the internet and go outside
As someone who's had to spend some time in the past in a place to get stabilized from mental illness, Gabbie's delivery of all her religious material has a familiar cadence and emphasis that you could hear up and down the hallways a few minutes/hours before the staff would come by with a sedative.
I have a psych degree and used to work in a group home for mentally ill adults, Gabbie is definitely giving off some unwell vibes
I had a very similar experience and thought about this situation
Lmao remember when Gabbie talked about how “funny” it was to have her cleaners clean the c*m stains off of her bedroom mirrors but Megan having it on her face isn’t okay.
As a house cleaner that's so fucking disgusting and disrespectful 😭
@Alexacake19 bro honestly, when she was manic on tiktok, her house looked a wreck like her cats were walking around things to get to their food. so much clutter. art supplies and crap all over the damn floor. i felt bad for whoever has to clean it.
Whaaaaaat?!
Imagine Gabbie Hanna criticizing you as a musician, you'd know you were really onto something
💀💀💀 i’d love to see her criticize vocalist legends like streisand
I can't lie lol, I saw a video of her singing Zombie and What's Up in a small park concert or something and she was killinggggg it
I’ll never forget her coming for Bebe Rexha because she set a house on fire in the ‘Sabotage’ music video after Gabbie’s ‘Monster’ music video.
She’s still so hateful toward Rachel Oates because she is jealous of her scientific intelligence and artistic talent. Also, Rachel is actually good at and knowledgeable about poetry and Gabbie can’t take it.
This makes me so frustrated because "modesty" is so subjective and changing. At one point, wearing pants or showing your ankles was considered immodest for women.
Sexualizing women's bodies and making them responsible for the arousal of men is deeply unfair, misogynistic and gross.
If men can't handle seeing a woman wearing a push-up bra under a tank top in public, then they need to "be respectful" and keep themselves home.
I'm an adult. I am not responsible for anyone else's children or husbands. This is the same logic people try to use about gay people holding hands or kissing in public- "What will I tell my kids?" I dunno, the truth? Reality? Respect? It's not that hard.
If someone wants to dress modestly, and that makes them feel respectful and comfortable, excellent! But the second you expect everyone else to abide by your ideals, you are crossing the line.
Ugh this also frustrates me because it's the same gross comments I hear from my own family about breastfeeding. "She just took her boob out at the table!" Yes, to feed her baby. At the dinner table. Where people eat food. How someone can sexualize a mother breastfeeding a literal infant is beyond me.
Anyway, great video as always. I think your predictions are going to be very accurate, unfortunately. Gotta love the cancelled internet influencer to religious zealot pipeline.
God you took every thought I had and put it in a comment. You are awesome!!! 👍🏻
@@eckilla Wow thank you!
Second the other commenter! Very well said! Modesty also isn’t a shield against misogyny/harassment!
(Christianity-trauma speaker here)
I am okay with spirituality. If it gets someone through the day…. Hell, yeah. Go for it.
When it becomes damaging, judgmental, and organized, I am saddling up on my highest atheistic horse.
I really do not understand in what fantasy world people are dressing provocatively enough to traumatize kids just in their daily life. Usually if people are dressed super skimpily, they're on the way to a party or another event where it's appropriate or they're teenage girls, in which case I don't think think it's useful to go "But think of the children!" to literal children.
If someone wants to protect kids from sexualization, then advocate for better sex ed and teaching them consent from a very early age, because exactly 0 kids are saved from childhood sexual trauma by all women collectively dressing like pilgrims.
there is definitely this phenomenon of christian women who are abnormally concerned with their bodies and assume everyone else is too. my mom is like this as well where she assumes every action a woman does is influenced by her body. a couple days ago we were talking about big brother 26, and she spent a lot of that time talking about how she thinks the women's actions and intentions are based on how they feel about their bodies. like she told me angela (old and fat) is bitter because makensy (young and thin) is prettier than her. not once has it even been so much as hinted at that there's any jealousy. my mom is literally in her 50s and she still thinks like this. like she truly has no clue that there can be social dynamics between two or more women that don't involve their appearances
Fuck that makes me sad
I wrote a lonnnng comment on a recent video made by Caroline Easom about JK Rowling's blatant misogyny and how she shows it in the way she writes female characters about this exact thing. My mom is/was the same way and it gave me a ton of inherited internalized misogyny for a lot of my life, to the point where I'd be consciously comparing my physical and non physical attributes to any and all women I would see at any given time, like it was an ingrained reflex that I wouldn't realize I was doing until I'd done it sometimes. This was bc my mom would constantly ask me, unprompted and out of nowhere, "omg am I THAT big?" Or "I look better than HER, right???" as she'd gesture subtly or indicate in some other way a poor random woman just standing there minding her own business. She convinced me that ALL women did this internally. It took a ton of work to unlearn that shit along with the constant tape of negative self talk playing in my head in her voice. Women in that generation and older were VICIOUS to one another and I'm very relieved to see that as time has gone on and we've grown more aware as a society of these toxic systemic issues, that the younger generation seems to struggle with these things far less than we did.
NOT other people's husbands 😂😂😂😂 he can gauge his eyes out for all I care
Lol, facts.
lmao agreeeeeed 😂
As a lesbian I do not give a SHIT about men when I am picking out my clothes.
These tits are out because I feel hot and I like my outfit!!!!
4:00 - I understand an echo chamber, but I also hope you recognize that your previous GH videos were super important at the time to fill in the blanks or provide an accurate timeline and correct misinformation that was being pushed out by her, her stans, etc.
I agree 💯.
I actually think this is her being truthful about what she believes. She does these narcissistic mental gymnastics where whatever belief she has must confirm to her that she is special.
Like she really thought she was gonna be a Taylor Swift level celebrity, and she said she was going to “save the world” with whatever influence she got from that. She “manifested” that. Whenever she had her manic episode, it was right after she realized this might not be true because I remember she lost that small artist power bowl contest or whatever she was doing directly before having the public episode. That’s why she was manically saying “help me help us,” which basically meant “make me famous so that I can save the world.”
Then she started to say she wasn’t as successful as she thought she should be because she was “ahead of her time like Picasso.” I think the religion thing is another narcissistic form of mental gymnastics to cope with the fact that others do not find her as special or talented as she thinks she is. She tells herself she is special because she is chosen by god and thinks she will be rewarded in the next life for her faithfulness.
She tends to follow whatever delusion makes her feel the most comfortable with herself and her life, and I think this one will stick around indefinitely because it’s something that can’t be proven or disproven. She’ll probably stay in it.
Sorry, I just find her so interesting. lol it’s a guilty interest. I could write a whole dissertation on my theories about why she behaves the way she behaves.
same, i have a guilty interest in her as well. i think that’s why she’s such an interesting and infuriating person to make content about
I think you're spot on with this. Lot of good insight here.
I had a severe manic episode and 'found god' for a handful of months. It's an actual symptom of mania. I hope she has professional help because this has been years of her being all over the place and struggling. She might seem happy but it's not happiness, it's mania and it's awful
Yeah I get that vibe too with the uptick in religious posts the past few weeks obviously it’s not as erratic to the same extent as her previous episodes but there is still that vibe. I do think she does believe in god but obviously I think the bipolar and manic episodes have really made her sort of become more fanatical about god & Jesus. I can’t help but empathize for Gabbie because I do know a lot more about her struggles behind the scenes than most people know.
@@Thomassteven00Yea, you hit the nail on the head in your other comment too, it does peak in the summer months, etc. There's so much to it, if you've experienced it you see it from a mile away in other people. A manic episode can worsen and turn into psychosis, etc. It also gets worse overtime when not treated and it's so sad seeing her still go through all this.
@@WithBailey I think her symptoms truly heighten during the summer which is common for manic episodes I do hope it doesn’t escalate again. I can’t help but empathize for her because of the things I’ve learned about her like I recently learned that a few years ago during a trip home a relative had sexually abused her and I’ve been wondering if that is to her spiraling over the years plus other factors as well.
i hope so too. this pattern is not a good one.
@@Thomassteven00 That makes a lot of sense. I remember in her old apartment she had a dishwasher that she didn't even know was there for like 6 months because she didn't see it, and that her Therapist said it's from trauma. I have a lot of the same issues; a lot of these kind of mental health issues are rooted in untreated childhood trauma and trauma & stress in general. Being manic/depressive, or at least the symptoms she clearly shows, takes such a toll when untreated and can turn into so much more.
I grew up in Spain so maybe my threshold for modesty is different, but naked bodies are not inherently sexual. My family would go to nudist beaches, and now I'm comfortable around nakedness, it doesn't shock me or turn me on. it's normal and natural.
yeah the u.s. has a huuuuuge purity culture that goes all the way back to the puritans who moved from england. it's really frustrating as an american who thinks bodies are just bodies lol -_-
I’m sorry, Gabbie now has a problem with women showing off their bodies but it was ok when she did it? I remember saying that she has a lot of confidence showing pictures on Instagram which appeared nude but covered everything. Like why is she always so hypocritical to other women?
And I just checked and those photos are still on her Instagram 🤦♀️, I can’t with the hypocrisy
People can change their minds? I dont understand this argument
@miriamnah6624
It's one thing to change your mind. It's another thing completely... to decide youve changed your mind and are now morally superior to everyone else. It's f*cking ridiculous lol.
@@miriamnah6624I hate when people say this. Yes she changed her mind, but to disparage people doing things you used to do IS HYPOCRISY! Her not acknowledging that she also did those exact things and weaving that into her soapbox video makes it an issue. “I used to do ____ but now that I am turning to faith I just don’t think anyone should be doing that” is different than “you’re you are flaunting your body and need to turn to Jesus”
@@miriamnah6624 changing your mind and then going on a tirade against everyone that was like you is usually an untreated trauma response or a desperate need to "prove yourself" to the new group, not actually changing your mind. Or else why would she be so damn vitriolic about it?
@@chelscara thats actually a fair point that i didnt consider in my original comment, thank you. 😊
Gabbie’s struggle to find authentically who she is and of course throwing herself completely into Christian faith (not just religion, but Christianity) reminds me so much of a friend I had who spent her whole life hopping from one thing to the other, often contradicting herself, often seeming like a hypocrite, also expressing that she finally FOUND HERSELF. Sure she had passions that remained consistent through her life, but she always changed up her identity. Always changing up how she wanted to be viewed and what she believed in. She made the recent hard core move to Christianity and God and Jesus, after a short “hoe phase”. Watching Gabbie go from “feminist, everyone is out to get me because I’m a WOMAN!” To “worshipper, everyone is out to get me because I’m an OPPRESSED CHRISTIAN!” Is the same thing my friend did.
If Gabbie wants attention, love, sympathy, etc, she’ll easily find it by spouting off Bible verses, condemning the “outside world” and making gospel songs. But I think like with all things it just won’t be enough. Those Christian fans won’t be enough for her, just like all the other fans weren’t enough. If she truly found God and was happy she’d be content to just be in that bubble with herself and her community, but she has to TELL everyone about it all the time.
TL;DR same old same old 😅
Also I’m just waiting to see if she crosses into good ol Christian Nationalism and becomes a lot more right wing. She had posted a video of herself singing the National anthem and commenting about somehow being the reason Biden dropped out (obviously a joke) and it did not seem to go over well, since she deleted the video. She still has a very loud LGBTQ+ base, and I think she knows that, but eventually if she follows this far enough, I can just see her alienating that fanbase to appease the Right wing Christians who will flock to her.
@@FlyingSwatters She's already been saying words like "degeneracy" which is *mostly* used by christian nationalists. Not everyone who talks about "degeneracy" or calls other people "degenerates" is a christian nationalist, of course, but... again, most people who talk like that are in those groups or spend time with them...
@@notshardainthe way she comments on how everything is porn or murder and everything is BAD and she essentially needed to find God to realize it all, as if she wasn’t participating in the exact culture. And she can change! Of course she can say “actually that wasn’t me, I was just doing what I thought people wanted” but we know that’s not the case lol
Just keeping that eye out. Interesting to see if she goes full out or if she keeps it hidden enough to stream to teenagers and young 20somethings.
@@notshardainOh no, someone using the word "degeneracy" with any regularity is a major red flag
@@FlyingSwatterssome of her statements started sounding slightly terfy. And knowing her past comments about trans people, I predict it won’t be long before we start hearing overt terf talking points from her.
Her trajectory is so crazy. This time 2 years ago she was showing feet on OF
and nipples on instagram lol
The grift continues
And just one year ago was having a manic episode, painting her driveway while wearing ill-fitting lingerie. How dare she not think of her neighbors' husbands! 😂
just here for the smart hot mom vibes
ETA: the burp that happened right after i fckn posted this has killed me 💀
The gym is such a horrible example. When I went to the gym I wore leggings and a big tshirt everytime and guys still were absolute weirdos constantly. It made me so uncomfortable I stopped going honestly. It truly doesn't even matter what you're wearing. If a guy is gross hes going to be gross regardless.
I got a lecture for 10yrs about “protecting my brothers” at Bible camp.
She’s just regurgitating purity culture that is shown to be harmful.
The bedsheet to a swimming pool-I mean that IS what purity culture says-well they want a one piece with shorts and maybe even a long sleeve rash guard.
It’s not modesty it’s purity culture. It is also very dehumanizing to men because purity culture requires men to be incapable and infantile.
So she's forever stuck in a "IT'S NOT A PHASE, MOM!!" cycle
the reason i have such a peaceful relationship with my religion is that i was never forced by anyone or shoved into it by anyone. i know so many people who have religious trauma from their childhood and who never had a choice to even question what they were taught. i think this attitude will never help anyone: you can't teach or ask anyone to ~believe~. you can inform people about the holy books that exist, the history of the various prophets, the historical testimonies, the different ways [insert religion] works in [insert region]. but believing... you can't force anyone to do that, and doing that does way more harm than good. i wish people would just let people come to religion naturally, if they want to, and that our approach towards people who are not religious would just be respect, as we've been taught to treat every person.
In high school I had a vp who suggested (teenaged) girls not wear push-up bras. At the same school, another vp nixed short-shorts for girls (again, children). We knew it was wrong and some boys wore short-shorts to school to prove that it was a gender stereotype.
In middle school (grades 6-8), our band teacher sent out a multi-page letter to students and parents that explicitly said girls should not wear short skirts as it was DISTRACTING. We all faced the teacher.
“Everyone will bend the knee, babes” is sending me through a wave of feelings I can barely explain. Also, is Gabby going tradcath? That is my worse nightmare
I’m right there with you, queen :( I’m an atheist and don’t have religious trauma but that even made me feel disgusted. It’s impossible to have a productive and respectful conversation with people like her. She’s 33 going on 80 with this tradcath energy and doubt it’s bringing her as much hApPiNeSs as she claims.
beer being a key part of the midwest tornado watch schema is too real 😂
i love seeing the members comments, it's like getting a premonition of what's to come 😂
Sajak gives good community comment section as well as excellent comedy + commentary.
I think much of this is a western cultural issue as well. My foster brother is a child of Russian Siberian immigrants, and I am from a native America family, we were in care homes together and in our respective cultures prior to the system nudity was not thought of anything more than a body simply just existing. Saunas and sweats with butt ass full nude cousins and aunties and siblings were simply just us existing completely outside of a sexualized scenario……for both of us, around 10-11 years old, the idea that this was suddenly inappropriate and a nude body was something to be deeply ashamed of , was rather alien and instilled a lot of fear of bodies around me around that time both fear of others body and my own. Not to draw a odd parallel back to religion, but it really gave that eve and co didn’t understand that nakedness was wrong and shameful until it was pointed out to them. So I get a little touchy n defensive when ppl immediately conflate nudity with being inherent to sexualization at any age.
Recently I was at a local gym’s sauna with a acquaintance and we ran into my brother’s biological mom, sat next to her full nude in the sauna. I didn’t notice until the person I was with pointed out to me how weird and uncomfortable that must’ve been for me. I was like…..no! Not really. I am not drawn to looking at her naked, we’re not in the sauna to be weird and intimate, she’s not shoving her boobs in my face and no one is begging for another to look at their ass. No one, to my knowledge, felt offput but that until that person pointed out we’re all naked , which again seems to me to be very contingent on cultural values and context.
So I do appreciate the nuance you have when it comes to wanting for folx to understand modesty and appropriateness around young children. For the record, I don’t feel like the average person is so braindead and lacking in situational social skills to be all “LOOK AT MY BOOBIES OUT MY TANK TOP!!!!” at the local Starbucks while a mom is behind u in line waiting on a coffee and some hot cocoa or a smoothie for the little ones. I see why you brought it up, absolutely, bc nuance and context is so crucial to understanding the world around us. But like I said, based on my own unique experiences with cultural nudity and nonsexual nudity I sometimes jump to be sort of defensive and bring these points up. I loved your video sajak!!!!! Xoxoxoxo
Also clothes mainly exist for warmth, protection and support.
Modesty was not why clothes were invented. That came way later in various different forms.
Yeah, a lot of American culture is prudish and focused on making people feel bad or weird about their bodies. The amount of focus on what other people wear and how much is ridiculous. It just reinforces A LOT of misogyny because it treats women’s bodies as inherently sexual and victim blames people who are harassed.
“God! I’m not a doctor!” *sip* SENT ME 😂😂
“It’s literally not about us!
It’s about meeeeeeeeeeeee!”
-Gabby
I am already so exhausted by the Goody Hanna era.
You cannot make good art as a censorious conservative, which is absolutely where this is heading.
She’s already going from “but what about the CHILDREN?!?!?” to “women are responsible for causing men’s eyeballs (and other parts) to stray.”
There’s no convert more exhausting than a recent convert, is there?
@@manderly33 Amen
Hot take: let bodies just be bodies. Kids being around someone showing cleavage or wearing booty shorts isn’t an issue unless they are actively being sexual around the kids. By sheltering kids from people wearing more revealing clothes it teaches them shame about their bodies and will most likely cause them to sexualize people more as adults.
💯💯💯💯
Okay, now I’m to the boob talk and I just gotta say, she’s two seconds away from “well what was she wearing though?” Which, as we know, wouldn’t be the first time.
Edit: lol you said this immediately after I posted this comment 🙃
The argument will be forever circular - to people who are religious, it simply isn't subjective. For a believer to admit that their beliefs are subjective is tantamount to them admitting that some other belief may be true, which in turn cancels out their own belief. It's just one of those things you have to accept about arguing with those with "beliefs." They quite simply "believe" that their "beliefs" are 100% true.
Gabbie starting to sound like every fundie I grew up surrounded by is so wild.
It’s so great to hear people deconstruct those points and see how absolutely insidious fundie culture/beliefs are.
You got me at, “rent must be due, because I’m talking about Gabbie Hanna”😂
The tornado analogy is spot on, by the way.
Shes coming right towards us
The way Gabbie reacted to Jessi being raped, and the fact that she’s not really sorry for that, just shows to me that her “progressive” values back in the day were only about making herself look good to her audience.
Also, Gabbie, as a queer woman, I can acknowledge when I’m attracted to a woman without being like “can you cover up, I won’t be able to control myself.” Like, I’m able to control my urges??? I expect the same from men who are attracted to women. And well people in general, but Gabbie has always seemed to go harder on shaming women.
Also also, I’m pretty sure topless beaches are a thing in countries like Spain. Breasts aren’t inherently sexual (again, I say that as someone who is attracted to them). I respect that everyone has different standards for their own bodies, but can we just stop shaming each other??
alt title: The Tornadic Potential of Gabbie Hanna
Gabbie’s rant about “decent dressing” at the gym is just her covering up her painful lack of self confidence with religiosity.
Religious delusion arc coming in nicely
lmao shapin’ up real good
Agree 💯. Love the tornado analogy
it was actually so good
As someone from mn it was so real, especially the grab a beer and go into the basement. I remember as a kid a funnel cloud going directly over the house and my dad and uncle hanging out on the front porch with some scotch watching the storm roll in lol
Thank you to every woman brave enough to leave the house smokin hot everyday. 💙
Not all heroes wear capes, but they do all wear push up bras.
came here from Rachael Oates😁happy i found your channel, sidenote: ur eyebrows look so beautiful😍, that's literally how I'm trying to get my brows to look lol
@@ManicPixieDreamGurl thank you! happy to have you here!
and they’re more makeup than tiny hairs at this point, if that helps! 😂
The thing with Gabbie is that I definitely believe that SHE believes what she is saying. That's her pattern.
But, how can she believe that we believe her religious views when she has not repented or even acknowledged the things she's done in the past?
How long do we have till she slides down the alt right pipeline? 👀
I think she’s right there at that pipeline based on a few comments she’s made 😭 And I swear that Meg Thee Stallion tik tok (which she deleted) on top of her being a raging misogynist, is also a dog whistle since Meg is openly supporting and promoting Kamala Harris’ campaign. And ugh, I don’t see as many hardcore Christians be left wing as they are right wing.
As someone who grew up in a military environment, I wonder what Gabbie's take on what we called 'Ranger Panties' - which are very short work out shorts with slits along the sides. And they're given to soldiers by the Military.
And yes, sometimes you could see some butt cheek while people were out on runs, but I don't remember anyone caring because it's workout attire. Or maybe because they're men...
It can actually be pretty common for people struggling with bipolar disorder or other mental illnesses to become obsessed with religion. When it comes to Gabi I do have to remind myself to be kind, she has been through so many attention seeking phases in her time online, her ability to rewrite her own history while proselytizing to her audience is a new low. I have had issues with her since she promoted her disordered eating to her young audience back in the day, not holding my breath that she will ever be a good person.
Random thought: Idk how I thought it was spelled, but seeing “proselytizing” actually written out made my brain glitch… lol
😂thought it was just me@@coleworld4385
This is true. The phenomenon is called Hyper-religiosity and is a known symptom of Bipolar. How much of it is part of attention seeking, how much of it is a grift, how much is mental illness, and how much of it is Gabbie genuinely buying into purity culture is had to determine. Doesn't make what she's saying any less harmful or any more legitimate, regardless of the underlying reason
This thought occurred to me, too!!
Oh my God I just got war flashbacks of her eating an entire watermelon a day
It really feels like Gabbie will latch onto anything that will let her bash other women in order to prop herself up...
And I'm 31 XD we ain't that old
24:43 I actually live in Oklahoma so the very detailed tornado metaphor actually made too much sense to me for Gabby Hanna
Oklahomies unite :)) (born and raised but I’m in Chicago now )
something that i heard on a podcast is that a lot of horrible people / people who have generally done shitty things turn to religion and turn to it hard because it allows them “forgiveness” and lets them assuage the guilt they feel without having to actually put in work to change and make amends. they can go to church every week and be forgiven without ever once having to face the person they’ve wronged.
You mentioned how she won’t admit her audience is children, but I vividly remember in Gabbie’s “professional makeup organization” video, her camera man makes a joke and calls her audience “hanjobs” and she responds by saying “nooo they’re children” this was a few years back and in my eyes is her absolutely acknowledging that her audience is mostly underage
that’s true - she will only admit it at her convenience
Really piss off judging Megan the stallion. Girl
You could NEVER EVER, NEVER EVER get on Megan’s level
I’m not even a die hard fan of Megan Thee Stallion but even I know this. 😂
As someone who has never experienced a tornado and has never really thought about what it's like, I really enjoyed your vivid description
dude, the way gabbie talked about jesus and god in that tik tok comment has jehovah's witness written allll over it. i wouldnt be surprised if she got sucked into their cult
"false gods and false religions" - word for word jehovsh's witness talking points. shes gotta be a jw
Oh man, if that's the case, I'm kinda worried about her, as much as I don't like her
i saw her say that she goes to a reformed baptist church and is “for all intents and purposes” calvinist in her theology
my theory on gabbie is that she's trying her absolute hardest to get in with the Christian (brittney dawn, classically abby, etc) crowd because she knows that she can generally avoid people successfully bringing up her past behavior in that kind of a space. cause all of this feels like regurgitated brittney dawn "i once dressed inappropriately but now that I've found god i don't" and i don't know it feels disingenuous like she doesn't even seem to really care that much. cause i can agree that the way you might dress at a club probably isn't the way you should dress at a place where children are present, but i don't think that's a far-out idea and it feels like gabbie started with that because she knows it'll be the thing people can agree on the most.
Classically Abby is Orthodox Jewish, not Christian.
@@quadraticresidue5992 still a loser, female agency denying zealot, so, tomato tomahto
If Gabbie has a way to objectively test Biblical truth, she’s been holding out on us.
ummmm Sajak for PRESIDENT?! (not actually bc you don’t deserve that hell hole of a job) BUT DAMN this was so good 👏👏 thank you for always having common sense, it’s genuinely so important to have people, especially women, have a platform and use it this way and to vocalize these messages/opinions/facts 🩷
thank you! ❤️❤️
YES!! I agree with all points of your comment!!😁
I love reading the bible because it disproves most Christians and they get so angry I love it :D in this case it's Matthew 5:29 (If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.). Just so much for "Bible based" Gabbie >:)
Coming from Rachel's video where she mentioned you.
Glad she did, love your opinion and commentary! :)
as someone who was in THAT discord…it’s always really interesting to hear you reflect on the discourse. We were all 100% being conditioned into feeling so intensely against Gabbie. I’m glad you seem to be in a place where it’s easier for you & not so constant 🖤
i mean, to be fair, i’m 100% responsible for my own participation and perpetuating a lot of the unnecessary rhetoric, but it really is wild that even at my big age you really can get swept up in stuff like that.
@@fatsajakYeah parasocial hate is just as unhealthy if not more unhealthy than parasocial love I’ve always felt the extreme Stans and extreme haters are both equally wrong and unhealthy. Because at the end of the day she is a human being we all don’t really know personally who has made mistakes and poor judgement calls (it would be a different conversation if she did the things James Charles, Jeffree Star, David Dobrik, Shane Dawson, Cody Ko, or Colleen Ballinger did tho). I think the fans need to realize she has made some bad choices that did cause harm and I think the extreme haters (the word haters is so cringy but I can’t think another word) take the criticism and disdain did take it to unhealthy levels. I’ve always felt like I’ve been trapped in awkward limbo with Gabbie a sense of fascination and enjoyment by her art and persona but also a sense of disappointment and frustration with her mistakes and bad choices. In the end I truly hate the all or nothing mentality social media has and it doesn’t just apply to Gabbie and other creators it’s also opinions on topics as well like the whole debate on whether supporting Kamala Harris is right because she has been too neutral with the Palestine & Israel situation.
I knew Gabbie fell into the "cancelled" influencer to Christian influencer pipeline. Still, I did not expect the Girl Defined arc.
This is a lucrative, yet minimal effort grift that will easily get her praise and adulation simply by dressing it up as born again Christian conservatism. Often influencers use it as a shield to deflect reasonable criticisms and it's gross. I expected nothing more from GH tbh.
gabbie will never find herself by looking everywhere but inside herself. This is only going to last until the honeymoon phase wears off of this "discovery" imo.
Anyone else remember Gabbie saying that when she eats edibles she has these intense religious times in her life?.. cos this is all sounding familiar
Also, of course religion is subjective because it’s been legitimately theorised that if you destroyed every science related book and every religious book, the only one that would come back the same is science because religion is stories told from person to person.
A couple months ago she said on Facebook she had a relapse after a haircut went wrong so that could be possible. I do get the vibe she’s in some manic state again due to the uptick in religious posts the past few weeks I just hope she doesn’t get erratic again.
Idk, I watched some of her videos and an interview she did locally, and she looks healthier than ever before. Dig deeper because I think she's just actually in a good place now. She doesn't seem manic about her faith currently and that is very different than being in a delusional psychosis, and I feel realizing that difference is very important for both religious and mental health discourse.

@@TheKatarinaGiselle I’m talking about the uptick in religious posts and clinging to purity & modesty it’s showing the signs of being manic again and extreme devotion to religion can be a sign of being in a manic episode. Her symptoms have always peaked during the summer. Yes she’s not screaming and being erratic but it’s still pretty subtle and noticeable.
@@Thomassteven00 I still think we should root for people, especially mentally ill ppl. Right now, my older sister who is a narcissistic sociopath keeps insinuating she isn't living much longer. She is 43 and it hurts me that she uses it as emotional blackmail, but I can't just stop hoping or encouraging change. I can love from a distance. And Gabbie is somebody who may be manic, but she also kifjt be fine. The way she is speaking about her faith hasn't sounded manic to me, and while I no longer participate in church, my family does and I will go sometimes..and to me she sounds like the average christian right now. I majored in psychology and I understand that it can be difficult to tell, but imo she is not currently manic. And I think it is in her best interest that she stays involved in her community and less online (or at least doesn't read the comments). She needs more than a year offline. As do kajy people, tbh. Society would be better off if the internet stopped existing (esp for the long run).
I know I commented this a few weeks ago I swear I’m not a creep 😂 you look so pretty lately Sajak! And the “moving blind lighting” is actually pretty soothing in my opinion lol it’s a total west/midwest summer vibe
thank you, love! ❤️
Sajak to me is like my sister telling me about her unhinged coworker and it brings me a special sense of joy that I don’t have to witness any of it and process it through her experience 😂☕️
not a psychologist but part of me thinks *she* used to dress less modest and pull her shorts up too much to get attention from other peoples husbands and finally learned thats not great, and thats why she’s bringing it up. because thats so specific lol. maybe thats why *she* would dress like that in the past so she assumes that must be the reason for other women?
Gabbie, jesus may forgive you but i sure as hell don't lol
PERIOD 💀
Absolutely savage comment 😂
The line between mental illness and intense religiosity is often blurry
@@larissabrglum3856 interestingly enough, there was a study done where the scientists took brain scans of people who were experiencing intense religious fervor(intense feelings of closeness to god, speaking in tongues, etc) and compared those brain scans to people who were experiencing intense symptoms of schizophrenia. The scans were nearly identical in terms of the most active areas of the brain.
My least favourite thing about the whole "being naked at the gym" argument is that actually nobody dresses like that to go to the gym 😭😭 im sure there are a few odd ducks but wearing a sports bra and tight leggings is not equivalent to half naked
If anything, women are mostly going to dress like that in specialized exercise classes. Which are mostly taken by women.
There is a distinct borderline quality to Gabby's behavioural patterns that you've identified. The biggest clue is always the misplaced, uncontrolled rage and anger. The unstable sense of self and lack of identity is another, and often there is a narcissistic component, also. I don't think she intentionally puts on these different identities; I'm pretty sure she feels like they are true to how she feels at the time. But she will eventually discard all of them. Splitting is another manifestation - the inability to hold opposing thoughts (organized religion is very good at promoting this: there is one "absolute truth", things and people are either good or bad, etc). It also means that often the thing that used to be good, great, the best, all of a sudden becomes the worst in their world. I completely agree with you that, while the elements of the pattern may change, the pattern itself will always remain the same.
"But she will eventually discard all of them. Splitting is another manifestation - the inability to hold opposing thoughts " yeah great observation Pynchon.
Gabby makes me uneasy. She's always a train wreck and I dont believe anything she says. Shes all around Bizarre
She sounds like she's always trying to convince herself that she believes whatever it is she's saying
Gabbie did the SAME THING Mohmad did when he started Islam. Telling people their gods were fake.
"It looks so trashy" just means "I'm jealous."
Sure, I have seen people wearing outfits before and been judgemental of them, but I didn't say anything. Live your life. Whenever I see older women clutching their pearls and telling younger people to "cover up" or "be modest" I instantly think, "She's bitter." I was young once and weighed 115 lb and wore next-to-nothing and I can't do that anymore. (Although I am technically back to my HS weight after taking Ozempic, but it turns out that your body at 45 after losing 85 lb does not look the same as it did when you were a teenager. AT ALL! 🤣)
And these Karens almost always claim that they're doing it to protect children! No you're not. You're realizing that you'll never look like that again and you want to shame these young women just to try to make yourself feel better. It's very obvious.
Exactly. Whenever someone says something to the effect of: “think about the children!” I think about how my siblings and I used to take communal baths because it was easier than doing it individually. I think about how I didn’t know what sex was until I started sex ed in middle school because my parents never sexualized bodies in front of me: bodies were just bodies. The more we pearl-clutch and bemoan about the children, the more we are scandalizing the human body to children who wouldn’t view the human body as anything but a body. Purity culture is creating a problem to then provide a solution. It’s asinine!
Yeah, she flat out admitted that now that she’s in her 30s she thinks showing a lot of skin is unacceptable, which a) bull, you thought it was fine until a few months ago, b) were you still fifteen or twenty five you would not feel that way, so how about you cram it and let people live?
Shakespeare said it best: dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?
i was literally trying to explain what to do during tornado weather to a friend of mine earlier today because she lives in a state that almost never gets tornadoes but was experiencing her first tornado watch. i should have just linked her to this video, you explained it perfectly 10/10.
I wish Gabbie would get some actual help. Her desire to act like an expert on everything is concerning.
“You want us to police ourselves more so that men have to police themselves less” YESSS 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

she’s already doing worship music lol
@@fatsajak oh god im scromiting
@@JudgeJudyandExecutioner9000 at least with worship music she gets to choose the key so maybe she can pick something that will complement her voice for once.
I think I believe in god/higher being because the idea that we just… end when we die is too heartbreaking and scary. My dad died from cancer in 2022 and the thought that he’s just completely gone- no soul or spirit or whatever to watch out for me is too much to bear. I want to and do believe he’s in heaven or whatever constitutes such. I want to believe I’ll see him again and it won’t be the deteriorated husk of himself that I watched die but my papa that was strong and full of life and love.
I hate organized religion and the cesspools it’s become but faith itself? I need that shit else ending it all looks too tempting
Remember when she befriended Johnny Snow over his atheist stances? Worlds ago.
When people start leaning into religion so LOUDLY it’s either 1. A grift or 2. Some type of crisis.
Preachy people also just give me the ick. Plus they never want to read the good parts of the book.
Yeah I wonder how old Jimbo is holding up after he cast his lot in with Gabby😂
sure do. thought about revisiting that time recently.
I follow Gabbie and I really get the vibe she’s in some sort of manic state again since she’s been posting a lot more about religion the past few weeks I do think her mania peaks during summer based off the past I hope it doesn’t escalate and this is it. I do wonder if religion is something that will fade out for her eventually because Gabbie does seem like one to “cult hop” and go through phases because she still hasn’t found her true authentic self like you’ve said before. I think when talking about outfit choices being too skimpy for children and husbands that can be a very slippery slope.
Hopefully the biggest difference if she finds herself in a manic situation is that she is around family, and in a much different environment than when she had her last episode.
Hopefully she is just feeling passionate and has people around her to make her feel stable. She was SO alone when she had her big public episode. I think even Sajak once commented on the fact that all the other situations (that all happened in august and summer time) were less extreme because she had her boyfriend around and still had people close to her that could maybe interact with her and help her in whatever ways they could.
She also could just be seeing the positive uptick that her speaking on religion is bringing her (I don’t have tiktok so I don’t know what videos or content she’s posting on there vs insta) so she’s riding that wave and only posting that because she knows she’ll get people who “get it”.
@@FlyingSwatters Yeah I do hope this is the extent because I really don’t want her to have another huge episode or breakdown again because it’s truly not good for her health and it’s sad and triggering for people like me to see like I remember during series in summer 2021 and during her manic episode I had a lot of crippling anxiety during that time just witnessing and hearing about everything. The silver lining is this time she’s around family to help her I still wonder if this fanatical religion and lean into purity will fade out and she will discover something else because she does tend to hop onto different things because I still feel she jumps to different things to see what sticks because she still has no idea of who she really is and what she really wants or believes.
@@Thomassteven00 No it really isn’t good for her, and I’m not a fan, and I disagree with a lot of her choices but I do hope she can find a nice space for herself where she can just enjoy the life she’s making, whatever that direction takes her. I think being back home and out of the LA environment was probably the best step for her. You can make art and music and be creative anywhere in the world!
I think you can really see where her head is with religion based on the verses she really focuses on and her gospel songs. A lot of those songs are about having “somebody” (God in this case) still support her and hold her up and be there for her. After a long time with no real friends, and no support and feeling lost and alone and betrayed by a community she was in, it kind of makes sense that the support of “God has me, God will take care of me” is so significant to her. She always puts too much of her soul into her lyrics 😅 you can always tell exactly what she’s feeling and the headspace she’s in.
Subscribed the moment you said 🇵🇸 happy to be here
Completely unrelated to the topic, but your hair looks amazing in this
I said the same thing !!
youth pastor gabbie was not on my bingo card
You know who doesn't give a sh*'t about adult outfits? Children. My 3yo nephew doesn't know what modesty is. He's mostly nekkid when I see him (at his home) because he doesn't want to wear them. It doesn't even register for him that I may or may not have my tits out. That's something we adults project onto children.
I LOVE this video... you hit every nail on the head I swear!!
Um, Gabbie, didn't your Bible say that if men are too tempted they should pluck their eyes out, instead of being creeps who ogle women? Is that objective, too? If so, I can get behind that. Otherwise, stop picking and choosing what's "truth" and what's hyperbole. Ugh.
31:15 I can literally hear the sleep still in her voice. She woke up and immediately began screaming misogyny into her phone. What a deeply sad individual.
the problem is she thinks a womans body is inherently sexual, so by showing skin you are acting hypersexual
THIIIIS
The internalized misogyny is strong in that one.
I FEEL LIKE GABBIE IS TOO EASILY INFLUENCED! Once again, Gabbie hasnt changed..the only thing that has changed for Gabbie is the issue and topics she is complaining about. Wanting to be cool and mimick someone she thinks is cool and admires, way of thinking. Someone she thinks is the coolest thing in earth probably thinks this way so shes gotta say all this junk in order to impress them. Shes such a chameleon and has NO sense of self or what she really stands for.
As a Heathen (Germanic/Norse Pagan), I have never tried to tell anyone the good word of Thor, but maybe Gabby needs it.
35:37 Low key I'm happy I didn't get into dressing up until later because now I'm almost 30 and while everyone else is getting tired of it, I'm in the "having fun" stage. We all move through life differently. Well except Gabbie, she's following the crunchy to conservative mom pipeline just she's her own toddler
I love the silent gesture to your laundry. If laundry isn't on Sajak's bed, something is up 😂😂
lmao it's my co-star at this point
Gabbie Hanna's problem has always been that she assumes that everybody thinks like Gabbie Hanna. Jessi Smiles is crying? She's looking for a reason to get emotional, because that's what Gabbie would do. Rachel Oates is critiquing her poetry? She's just trying to bring someone down, because that's what Gabbie would do. Women are wearing sports bras and shorts at the gym? They're trying to be provocative and catch male attention, because that's what Gabbie would be looking to do if she dressed that way.
I also love that she has apparently found Jesus (when you've centered every other man on the planet, why not him) but she's skipped the bit about 'judge not, lest ye be judged'. It was from a pretty famous TED talk that JC gave, or so I understand
“Every knee will bow babes-either you do it willingly now or he’ll do it forcefully later” oh so she’s THAT type of religious
or cosplaying that type of religious
Good timing talking about religion as I was just going to watch a new documentary called God & Country. It's about Christian Nationalism
I grew up in Christian Nationalism, it's a trip. I'm always so heartened to see when folks are paying attention to this stuff. It felt like for so long nobody would see or talk about it. Now there are documentaries. 🤯
The same is in russia
Ooh was it good?
@@Alexacake19 Yeah definitely. Very informative and balanced. Kinda showed how everything connected to January 6
she found a life hack: you don't need to ask for forgiveness from everyone you hurt if Jesus said you good. There will definitely not be any consequences of past actions if you say Jesus enough.
which is helpful considering how not at all sorry she seems to be lol
@@fatsajak lmao saying sorry would mean she's speaking against gods plan because she's only ever done what God wanted
Gabbie is still who she has always been. At the core, there has been no change. Her essence is still exactly the same. Self centered, self absorbed, self righteous and never EVER wrong. And I can relate to all of that. In my early 20s I was a lot like that. I started to grow up, experienced a few shitty things, found my own spiritual practice and I slowly became the woman I am today. I’m not perfect at all but I am aware of the ways in which I’ve grown as a person, matured and developed a level of empathy for others that I didn’t really have before. My family and the people around me have also recognized this growth over the years. I grew up, decided I didn’t like being so cold and selfish, and leaned more into giving instead of taking. What I’m saying is that it seems Gabbie hasn’t undergone this growth in maturity yet, no matter how much she pretends that she has. The religion thing is fake, because if it was really real to her, it would be clear. I’m not so sure Gabbie believes in A God, I think Gabbie sees herself as a god, or an extension of a god, and that is more toxic than anything. I know people like her and they’re unbearable lol it is what it is.
@@Maiden_to_mother I wonder if Gabbie Hanna views God in a way that means SHE is special and chosen. The way she writes about this relationship she has with God is that he’s this father figure who is always right there with her, guiding her literal every step, answering her literal prayers, speaking LITERALLY to her and to her alone. So in a way, yes she is this extension of God, but only because she is so CHOSEN by him. She has to speak about it because she’s chosen, she’s special, God loves her the most obviously. Her prayer journal entries on insta show a very obsessive worshipping of God and thanking God for everything and it’s so wild to see.
