Edit 2024: I'm gonna fucking cry not this video getting another boost because of the shit that went down with Synni 😭 Synthia has stated in her video that she's seeing a therapist for her issues so please don't hassle her about this.
Then why tf did you have to bring up her drama? That shit sucks and has to be uncomfortable to be held over her head. I’ve watched through the whole video and it could’ve done without the example of her to talk about black and white thinking.
Yes she does have a problem, and the witchunt isn't helping. I had never even heard of this person before and God had to call me into this mess because of it.
@@crystalvulpine2314i agree the witch hunt may be a little to much and most times it doesn't help. But this isn't the first time Synnibear has gotten herself into this kind of situations and unnecessary dramas. there have been multiple opportunities given to her and she gave so many apologies, but she always didn't seem to improve from her mistakes and got herself angry and annoyed of having to stop the things people were telling her to stop (example being her obsession towards another content creator which at the time was very problematic, wanting to manipulate them into a relationship. Showing inappropriate content towards minors. Romanticize sexual abuse. etc) Don't feel pity towards the one who is not honest with its heart
@Jellyfish-h6q Honestly , she threw everything out the window doing this. All that talk about becoming a better person after she got a therapist smh and I know all this is from her mental issues so she KNEW it was f**** ig She'll never see people as people but Npcs.
This is a personal pet peeve of mine but I hate it when people are treated like monsters after slipping up Especially if they’re minors Like, just because they have a platform doesnt mean you are suddenly a god Idolization is so confusing and dumb tbh
@@aerozin Exactly, synni is still just a child and is learning from all of this, we all make mistakes, we all need guidance as well, the internet was just way too quick to attack her. And frankly thats really heartbreaking.
@@kiwo7149 i am so glad i wasn't given a large platform back when i was a teen, i did so many awful things back then that i feel ashamed and disgusted about. i don't think younger me would have been able to cope and deal with the hate and constant eyes watching every little thing i do. even now as someone who just turned 21, i still don't want to be popular or have a huge platform. i still do a lot of dumb things
its not hard to not suck and be racist and shit though, like....thats it. it isnt difficult at all and being a minor isnt an excuse when you have literally the ENTIRE internet in your hands. attacking her isnt okay at all though. no buts.
@@sakuraogami6885 But think about it, this is a minor with a huge platform. When you're placed into this kind of environment, especially the internet, things are bound to happen, we all make mistakes and synni is recieving help as well so we should be encouraging now more than ever. Especially after what she went through. Saying that it “isn’t hard to not suck” is oversimplifying the entire situation, and im not trying to say being a minor is an excuse, im saying its something that should be taken in consideration because at the end of the day synni still is a child, and because of that we shouldn’t be as harsh
I want to say that I really appreciate the fact that you made this video. Tbh i was originally VERY salty towards you because of the things in your birdie video that were private, but i see you learned from what you did and I wanna thank you for clearing it up. I'm trying really hard to move on from my own wrongdoings and do better from now on. I also wanna be clear on one thing, its not important but it is important to me, i am no longer friends with Birdie, since my video came out i have not spoken to her, I dont want people to still think I'm still being influenced by her. that is all i want to say. Thank you again 💓 💖 💗 💛 💕
Edit: oh god this comment did not age well. Synnibear03 ended up being a gross creep, good lord, this is actually foul. It is a shame that quite often "cutesy" characters are bashed for being in horrible or taboo situations because "they are too cute so this is glorifying it", like, no; this is an issue not only online but in real life. Many abusers and even killers may be charming or cute but that doesn't mean they aren't capable of horrid actions. I am not a viewer of synnibear03, but I have seen clips of her abusive character and I think she did a fine job with it (from what I have seen). I actually think it is a good idea to show how anyone can be awful, not to trust anyone solely on appearance, "don't judge a book by its cover" sort of thing. The things attractive/cute people can get away with is evil, so I see her character as more of an awareness rather than glorifying the subjects, this could just be me though since I don't watch her and don't have an entire grasp on how she portrays it.
Yeah it's not glorifying or romanticing abuse but more of a representation of it. In her videos the abuser is represented as a monster rather than a cute uwu owo quirky character.
this same stuff happens on TikTok with ppl who draw cute characters in gory situations being bashed and saying that it romanticizes it, when it doesn't. also ive seen this happen with Melanie Martinez music
Reminds me of a similar situation with Admiral Ackbar, believe it or not. The crew of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi mocked Ackbar and said he was "too ugly" to be a good guy. Richard Marquand (the director of the movie) said "I think it's good to tell kids that good people aren't necessarily good looking people and that bad people aren't necessarily ugly people." he refused to change the design, and gave us the Ackbar we all know and love today. *"IT'S A TRAP!"*
Honestly so proud of you, you always try to look into things with a clear head and go to far lengths to apologise for any wrong doings. You pick apart the major holes the community that everyone tries to avoid. It's super brave of you. I wish there was more people like you who actually gave a shit and aren't just in it for clout. Great video as always stream! Have a sloth 🦥
We've created an environment in which nobody can make mistakes and everybody has to be perfect Once you fuck up once, that's it. you're done. you're canceled It's so toxic and terrifying to have to navigate I'm not saying groomers and abusers shouldn't have consequences for their actions but people get canceled over things that aren't even a big deal How can people become better people if they're not allowed to learn from their mistakes?
Honestly, the blame should be on the parents. Nowadays our parents give out the gadgets to extremely young impressionable 6 to 14 years old (even younger than that..) to let internet babysit them where predators and any bad influence can manifest to their own lives. Parents need to consult and monitor their gadgets. What in the hell just happen with our generation nowadays?
@@moonspiritleaf12 To be fair tho, yes. It's for their own well being. Something like Birdie, Synnibear and other people involve in this "drama" (NO, this is not a drama anymore, its straight off committing crime!) have been affected and the damage has been done. Honestly i am ok with people holding minor's accountability but the blame and harsher accountability must be on Parents, too. Birdie and the people involve there to commit heinous crime like this? Needs to get some serious help. If their parents can't take care of them then they should've done something else than letting it happen to them Idk, that's just me. I wanted to say that why we have to blame on minors where parents are the main core of their lives? They should be the one to be blamed on.
@@hollabackcatto6701 Yeah, honestly. Why blame the minors when it’s their parents fault for giving them a technical device at a young age? Let’s just try and keep new minors out of other people’s business and out of stuff that isn’t for them.
About that argument of "if you draw this serious theme and add cutesy stuff, then you're romanticizing it" makes me mad like, if I take that logic of yours then I can say that Japan does it just for the fact that they portray serious themes with cutesy stuff when in reality, it's not that. In Japan the topic of mental health is very taboo and with doing that they are spreading awarenesses about it, Jesus Christ I can't believe that argument still exists. Makes me feel ashamed of drawing creepy cute stuff :( I hope the internet learns this time (although I doubt it) about not thinking in black and white, hearing all sides of the story and for the love of God creepy cute stuff exists and if that's not your cup of tea that's okay! But please don't start drama. Edit (October 3rd 2024): ... So this didn't aged very well- I heard abouth the allegations regarding Synnibear03 and that's completely horrible. I still stand by my opinion regarding serious topics in art with cute aesthetic (example: menhera) as long as the topic is treated with respect. What Synnibear03 did was anything BUT that, and grooming is not ok I can't believe there are still accusations of this nature to this day it makes me feel genuinely worried... I hope the victims are okay and safe. What Synnibear03 did was absolutely disgusting :(
agreed 1000%. people who argue art with dark themes made to look cutesy are only reading that art literally, forgetting that art has different interpretations
This! Like if I’ve got a cutesy art style and I want to portray darker themes with my artwork, does that mean I have to change my art style?? Like lmfao where is the logic here
There was a point you brought up, and I very much agree with it. yes believe it or not bi ppl can make bi phobic comments. just bc ppl a person is bi doesn't mean they can be biphobic. blair white is a noticeable example of this. even though shes trans she still makes transphobic comments at other trans people.
For everyone saying Streamline is trying to "revive drama" if you could actually watch the full video, she has tried to review what Synni did and how others react and not giving her a chance to apologize for herself because it took months for Synni to make a video, yet people were being toxic behind her back in progress of making her video. No offense, but it's very embarrassing and pathetic how people are arguing over the comment section instead of watching the video. She explains in full details of what went wrong and going over each sections. Please stop saying Streamline is trying to throw more fire into the drama, she puts an end to it and that's all, never on purpose. Overall, I love this video and I agree with you and most of your points on this drama that had happened! I am happy you were brave to explain it all very well! Take care of yourself Streamline!
Yes! And they’re saying “Synni doesn’t want the drama revived!” Which is just putting words into her mouth..it’s disgusting and hypocritical. We should wait and see if Synni likes it or not.
3:29 - 3:36 Didn't Synni during that entire time of her understanding, scripting, then recording her video, while having a job, school, and I'm sure the mental issues that came with the drama, post on her community that she was working on it but to be patient? I swore I saw like three posts of her saying that-
Daydreaming is a form of escape just so yall know so I can understand why synni has a "vent world" and i can understand how that world changed her thoughts on Birdie cause that happened to me when I was in a relationship it wasn't fun and I hurt myself even if he was a manipulative little shit I hurt myself a lot cause I thought he was the best thing I'd ever get Daydream all you like just try not to get trapped you can do more harm then good for others and yourself
for everyone running to old videos to comment "tHiS dIdNt AgE wElL" stop acting like this video wasnt made 3 freaking years ago and this youtuber has no idea whats happening in the present, youre not smart
These videos were the reason she was able to get a free pass in the first place. People need to stop bringing their problems and casting it like it's the news everything in this situation could've been avoided If the cops/law enforcement was involved like every other internet Investigation. Every adult should be ashamed of themselves, especially since the Fourteen year old is still with the predator Right after jack's phone call!!!!!
@@youropinionsareshitandsoar1954I’ve from someone else eno will get themselves into situations like that though, I pray eno blocks synnibear but that won’t happen what needs to happen is synnibear going to jail
The oldest comments explained why they believe that, and ironically, those ones were from years ago themselves, so if anything, at least a few of them are indeed smart. You on the other hand...
hi streamline! this isnt a hate comment by any means but i just want to understand why my video lumped with all the other videos made on synni? ( 3:22 ) i wasnt even being like "grr synni should apologize faster grr" and i didnt want to "tear synni down". i made my original video because i felt as some of things used against synni were over exaggerated, nor did i want "synni to rush out a bad video", in fact i genuinely wanted to hear what synni had to say. my intention while making my video was to give synni the benefit of the doubt and to put some water over the fire that was this situation. im sorry if you misinterpreted what i was trying to say or what my motives were while watching the video, that is my fault as a content creator and mines alone. im still pretty new to commentary and trying to get better but i never had any ill intent against synni while making my video.
Also for some people, dreamur and synni have apologized for their mistakes already( I can link the videos!!), this video isn't stream saying either party is a horrible person, basically just analyzing. Both have owned up to faults
Agree with the kids not understanding certain mature things. I am 18 and even I don't touch certain subjects as I feel like I wouldn't be able to tackle them correctly. Minors in adult spaces is hazardous for both parties. Especially the minor down the line. One of my pet peeves when it comes to situations where the minor is in places and doing things that they can't properly handle (the Your Boyfriend thing was a _perfect_ example of this) is them saying "I'm mature for my age!" No, no you're not. And you won't be until several years later when your brain is fully developed. Why do you think its 18+? Because people that age and older can handle it. You cannot. (Heck even at my age I'm still not able to handle it. Why do you think the drinking age is 21?) Kids get into taboo and freaky subjects because they want to be like the big boys, they want to be like the adults. But they arent old enough for it and cannot handle it. Fiction does affect reality and it's a dangerous slippery slope with kids involved. So you guys saying that you're mature for your age, no, no you are not. You are not developed enough to handle it (even if you have seen things, in which case is another can of worms). Wait a few years, and THEN you will be able to. Take it from someone who has been in that "I'm more mature" phase.
There are kids out there who are actually more mature and can handle things like this easier and more responsibly than others. I discovered 18+ things when I was 11 but I was able to deal with it and here I am now just fine. Just because some have a situation like you doesn't mean they aren't more mature.
@@k1-b0keebo66 it still all depends tho I understand that some mature faster, but those who are younger than the area that's for older members and such (18+ spaces) should not be in those spaces (Ngl the fact you've found stuff at 11 kinda worries me but that's just me)
I agree with both of your points. It depends on people because there are people who will handle it more maturely then others. Thats just how it is we all aren't the same. But I also agree that even if you are *mature* for your age. Minors still shouldn't be in those type of places that are 18+ because there are some minors who just can't and it will mess them up pretty badly. I feel like in this generation currently tweens dont even exist because kids are trying to grow up fast and act like adults when they shouldn't be and should enjoy being a kid while they still can.
@@taigawc no but it's bad timing lol we talking about something serious and people are being immature and not professional. The art is not the point of the video
It’s crazy to even think, but for those not aware, Birdie has left the internet and supposedly going to therapy, improving tenfold. He was a in a very toxic environment and left so now he actually is getting better. Whether he comes back to the internet or not, I hope this is true and that Birdie is in fact changing. I have a little doubt but I’m rooting for him.
As a 14 year old myself, I honestly had the same view through the drama. Well mostly with the romanticizing r@pe and how ridiculous it was that people called Synni a predator to lgbtq women. Even hearing it from Dreamurr’s video I sort of went, “I’m sorry?” But yes, I can see your point of how people are so quick to believe that certain people can do no wrong and when they do it’s the end of the fucking world. But kids should know that not everyone in life is perfect and will never be perfect. Especially sense MOST drama in the animation meme community is just KIDS. Kids do stupid shit and they learn. It’s going to happen and having a RUclips channel with a big audience like Synni and birdie must be terrifying because all eyes are on them. And it’s hard when stuff gets leaked and doxxed with a blink of an eye.
Yeah if they learn their mistakes like synni did things will turn out right but then some times they don't like birdie and the issue will grow and grow.
As someone who got really angry at the very beginning, I remember when she made the “We need to talk.” video and I posted a long comment sympathizing and apologizing for what happened and she responded with like 1-2 words. I, of course, being 14 and idolizing her, was very upset but didn’t let that anger go into the drama. (Someone else also commented calling me a kid and mocking me for only getting a short response 💃🏽✨) In the Synni drama it was this (from a Fan’s view.) basically Either you, A. Stanned Synni and excused everything she did (even the bad things she’s admitted to) and attacked everyone who said anything about the things she has done wrong. B. Hated her without ever even looking at evidence or her apology or anything and just wanting to put her down. C. Kept neutral. D. Was a mix. Also, as someone who has severe ADHD, (possible!!!) clinical depression (my mom has it and I know it’s genetic and some times I just can’t stop the sadness/lows), anxiety, and Maladaptive daydreaming (and much more.) I agree with the whole “Telling someone to stop is like telling someone who’s depressed to stop being sad.” Honestly this entire video was so fkn spot on Thanks for this video, I wish we had it months ago.
I also suffer with terrible nightmares/maladaptive daydream about 🍇, due to past -s3xu@l- assault and many other experiences. You can’t control it. The nightmares and maladaptive daydream are so. so. Bad. I don’t really want to say much about myself, but I genuinely understand that point you made.
@@mindeater9807 😐 I wasn’t trauma dumping Besides most of the time if I just say “Yeah, I suffered from these things” Everyone says “Cap, stop lying you just want to be like ____” So shut up. I wasn’t trauma dumping to make a point I was just talking about the things I suffered from. Like bro wtf is wrong with you
aged like milk, but im still glad this was made at the time (quick edit here! OH MY GOD. OH MY. OH MY GOODNESS! WOW. I DIDNT NEED TO SEE THAT ART AND THOSE MESSAGES!!)
I can agree with the points made, the internet can severely impact the way we think. Because of sexual actions being normalized on the internet, I ended up being sexually assaulted in a relationship without realizing it. It messes you up because you are taught that it is normal. Which is why trigger warnings are important
I used to think the rape thoughts was actually romantizing but right now I realized that it might be legit intrusive thoughts when you think more into the actual context
he is actually bigender so she/he, not just she/her. also sorry i dont mean to annoying about this but a lot of bigender get mistaken as cis cuz they still partly still identify with there birth gender.
@@k1-b0keebo66 no streamline needs to use she/he pronouns it’s disrespectful to just use she/her pronouns when they use both she/her and he/him they need to alternate
hey have you seen that birdie (or jack) uploaded like,an update video?i have yet to see someone in the commentary community talk about it.from what i seen he was explaining some dramas and all and i think he is changing and doing better?but yeah
I cannot believe I have been watching birdie drama for 3 whole years. She has left such an impact on the community that we had to talk about it for 3 YEARS
i LOVE your videos, they're very well put together and the summarization without bias is the cherry on top, i have trouble focusing through most commentary videos but yours really grabs my attention. The art / speedpaint in the background is wonderful aswell.
The internet is honestly black and white, one minute someone can be sweet and the next they may act fake. It’s pretty fickle, but everyone has a dark side, and I’m proud of Synthia for coming out and acknowledging her part in the matter. Not many people have the courage to do that, but what breaks my heart is that people still bring it up like it’s fresh in their memories. This is what I call Hive Mind, where the law majority rules and anyone who tries to go against it, will be shut down. Nice video, Stream, I hope you read these comments honestly, as well as any constructive criticism you receive.
Now, the thing with minors interacting with adult content or games. You used the Your Boyfriend game as an example correct? The adults who have played and interacted with the games make content, memes, and art about the main character which gets people who haven’t interacted with the fandom or game curious. Curiosity is a very strong thing, people will do anything to get information which is why I THINK many minors interact with adult content, they just want to know about it and get caught up in a bad way.
the website were you have to download the game specifically says it´s a EROTIC horror game so i understadn having kids be curious and checking the tags but then go and download and make content in the fandom when the games existince at the moment is clearly for adults only i have some personal problems with the creator but even the creator has mutiple times stated not to interact with the game and minors still do it
@@kosedelious2063 fcourse kids are gonna be curious the probelm is when they see "18+ erotic game kids not allowed" and the proseed to join the fandom and create content for that game even after being told not to what kids to in private with friends is none of anyones buissnes but creating content is more of the problem
@@GaetorCreation i feel like when one says "18+" or "minors noy allowed" its taken as a challenge, most kids want to prove they can be mature and see grownup stuff
@@kosedelious2063 and if they did that in private I wouldn't be so angry The problem is kids making Animation memes and fanart and be active and talk in the community
I was very disappointed with synni when I first heard about this but now I’m more disappointed in myself and the internet. Synni is a human being like everyone else in this is strange world and we gave them too many expectations like all idols get. Birdie obviously doesn’t wanna change but Synni does. Sure Synni did some shitty things but so have we. We attacked them and other people because of one little mistake we did. We were all in the wrong here. I have been in an abusive friendship before and honestly it seemed like Birdie’s influence fueled Synni’s behavior which isn’t Synni’s fault because they can’t control Birdie’s behavior and influence on them. I think Synni was just in a wrong place at the wrong time. It’s obvious that they struggle with mental health and I’m glad they’re getting help for it. All we need to do as fans is support them and also mind our own business. Synni changed and I’m glad about that because that means we can all move forward and forget about the drama. I think what’s ironic about this situation is that we do this when someone has done something bad but usually when we do something wrong, we defend our actions and think we’re in the right. It has to stop. No more god damn drama, please.
Hhhh. People acting like therapists in this community. Press X to doubt for this community to ever improve. Most of these people I understand were kids, but Synni was also one as well. I would never be able to put up with that shit. It just kinda hits home for me
To be honest, only people that should forgive synni are the communities of people she’s hurt and as a whole people who have been some kind of victim to her in her life, only if they WANT to aswell.
As someone who is planning on making a comic that touches upon these similar taboo topics I think I needed to see this video because I wasn't planning on adding an age rating to the comic, which I now know is VERY irresponsible lmao A lot of drama comes from the fact that way too many kids are on the internet right now and soon we will have more adults to keep them in check (ie the kids on the internet now will grow up and be able to also police kids along with the pre existing adults) Great video :D
@@Jynxxx5 ah, she done a brief picture mention of YBF in one of the sections and I was surprised to see it. So I've noticed no one talkin abt it, cause ofc it's not the point of the video. But I wanted to mention it
@@cannibee47 ah I see now. I guess that glossed over me. Funny how she says that when the creator is making a SFW version once the NSFW version is done and the main account for the game is trying their best to block minors from seeing their stuff.
@@Jynxxx5 i guess they are also talking about how minors are ignoring that a sfw version is coming out and are still gonna look at the gameplays of the nsfw version because "they are mature". as a minor who is waiting for the sfw version, there are sadly alot of minors who are doing that.
@@ranchustars3050 yeah and we shouldn’t blame the creators or even the minors for that, cuz the official Twitter page is trying their best to check if any of their followers are of age which can be hard cuz the game is slowly getting traction and we shouldn’t blame the minor because they’re not mature enough to realize they shouldn’t be looking at it…or they do know but want to seem cool and older like you said.
19:22, That's why I want to do research on those matters. Because I've seen way too many kids falling for romanticized and bastardized versions of serious topics. For example: Some of my characters are victims of SA, not because I'm trying to give them a sob story but because that's simply how their story went. I am researching how PTSD can affect the brain and attempting to show it through properly made stories. Am I perfect? No, I'm still a bit new to making proper storylines and scripts, but I can try my hardest to improve and learn.
Similar situation! Currently doing research on depression for my OC/Main character in the story. Can you recommend some good places to research? Wikipedia is good and all but it’s still not enough
I'm totally saddened by the fact people shamed synthia for having mental illness. As someone who was proffesionally diagnosed by therapists and doctors, you can't just "stop" being mentally ill, sure you can "stop" it by taking medications and go to therapy sessions and talk to a psychologist, but it won't fully "stop" and you can't just easily get rid of it. Mental illnesses aren't your regular illnesses like having a flu...it's a mental thing, that stays with you for the rest of your life, and it's really hard to live like that. People should feel ashamed, because shaming someone for being mentally ill is kinda ableist imo.
The moment I learned about what Synni did, I felt...betrayed? So eventually I just unsubbed. But then I saw her saying that she wanted to make an apology video, I decided to keep my opinion as undefined. But I knew I was genuinely angry at the people who were impatient and kept expressing it. I even remember someone saying amongst the lines of : "You know, it's your fifth post about 'taking your time'. I'm starting to think you spend more time doing these posts rather than actually working on the video."
From what I can remember, Birdie is currently offline getting help in therapy improving tenfold. I personally don’t care if he never returns, I just hope the information is correct and that he is recovering and changing. For real this time. Spoctor touched on it briefly on one of his recent videos. There’s probably more info elsewhere
As someone who has maladaptive daydreams multiple times everyday for years- I don’t think it’s an disorder but rather a coping mechanism? If it is a disorder then that’s news to me-
Sometimes I get very mad at the canceling because it always go after people who make small mistakes. Like people who make cute characters and backgrounds while making it creepy and dark as well. In Gator’s video, they said that animations have a symbol in them. There are people who have characters that are fucked up and stuff like that, but people don’t attack them for that because the people know that the person who made that character doesn’t support or fantasize those stuff.
I was surprised to see a video on Synni from three years ago. I know you’re really busy with life but perhaps you should check the comments on this video. Not only has she outed herself for talking explicitly with minors *while* being an adult not a child, two RUclipsrs blew up their careers over her. I know you couldn’t have known this would happen especially since she has a history of lying to people to save her own skin, but you should probably pin a comment about it.
And remember kids: your sexuality primerely depends on hormones. Majority of people are bisexual and it's normal according to our nature, but because of our sosaciety rules we sometimes cant realize that.
Haven't finished the video yet, but I swear so that so many aspects of this drama were really gross looking back on it now. I just- It really fun pisses me off to know that people are this awful and to know that I believed a lot of this shit. Yes, I always thought that Synni should have the right to use her vent world and I felt bad for her because of what she was going through. But I just regret the rest. No, I am not going to defend everything she's done, but this could've been handled a lot better. And to Synni, I'm sorry. I didn't want you to be cancelled or anything like that, but I actively gave the misinformation discussed in both this video and the comment section, which wasn't my intention but I still believed it to be the truth. I'm glad that you've apologized for your actual wrongdoings and improved, and I hope to follow in your footsteps. I keep finding out that I have made so many mistakes because of who I put my trust in and my lack of research which only makes me feel worse. This is why I am trying to remember that it was the past and that I am still improving, and that I should address my mistakes and learn from them. Thank you Stream for creating this video. My eyes have been opened to the reality and I'm glad that I've started to try and listen to how I really feel instead of trying to perpetuate whatever stupid shit the internet has to say. Edit: The only thing I disagree with so far is the whole thing about how younger kids shouldn't be writing about abuse and stuff. I think it should depend on maturity and how young the kid actually is. Obviously 10 year olds shouldn't be writing about that, but older kids should be allowed to if they have enough maturity to do so and understand to a degree that abuse is wrong. Also it's quite helpful for coping with shit. Take it from me, some random 13 year old weirdo on the internet who likes creating characters who have suffered from childhood trauma as a way of coping with some things. I've just exposed myself to a lot of shit on purpose because I like dark and disturbing stories, but I wouldn't exactly recommend this to most for obvious reasons.
6:29 That is also like saying that someone needs to just get over an allergy whenever they sneeze near a dog (for context and I also have that same allergy, all though it is starting to fade.)
Edit (9/16/2024): Wow, this comment and video has aged weirdly given the circumstances. I just feel really sad going back to this. :( Honestly, the Synni drama was just one big mess that could have been avoided if people had handled things better and didn’t make the same mistakes others made in different dramas (like how in the hopeless peaches drama, only one youtuber talked to her, like how only 2 talked to Synni to get her story during the drama). I know I feel bad over this drama because I made stupid comments that went along with the narrative going on with Synni being a bad person (and unintentionally spreading some false info) and even going to the point of thinking her apology video was gonna be bad in another comment on dreamur’s deleted video. Thankfully I deleted these comments after realizing how awful and dumb they were but I still feel guilty over them. I hope if any future drama’s like this happen that people can finally learn from the Synni and hopeless peaches drama’s before jumping onto sides but I doubt it. TLDR: Stay the hell outta drama’s and don’t pick sides until you see both sides of the story.
Yea I agree,I feel like this person lowkey made it worse by applying themselves to the situation yknow there are a lot of flaws in this video I want to point out,one pissed me off where they kept saying something then switching up saying "we won't talk about it,its not my place" in my head I'm just asking why did they bring it up in the first place,which gives more people to feed into the drama. I just think that if they didn't apply themselves to the drama there wouldn't be much of a problem,,
@@chocolatemilk2686 I wasn’t talking about Streamline Workshop current video (Aka this one) but other’s in the drama in general. Also I take this video more as critiquing the drama and how it was handled by others and themselves. They didn’t want to speak on the relationship because it wasn’t their place and wanted to address that they shared private info they shouldn’t have shared.
@@SpaceySodaPop yes and about the relationship, even so there are people who will go out of there way to harass about the situation now that has been brought up,because now their curios I'm seeing some people asking about it and even on said they was gonna find info,Either way This person shouldn't have brought it up because at the end of the day we cant control the curiosity of young children who are now intrigued on the relationship topic,if Synni wants to talk ab it let them,dont bring it up in the video because its lowkey type dumb and off.
This is very well done! I agree with all you said and I'm relieved to see someone finally say what needed to be said. People need to stop sticking their noses into other people's personal business, it's really creepy lol. The arrogance and entitlement of this community is just really pathetic and sad sometimes
Edit 2024: I'm gonna fucking cry not this video getting another boost because of the shit that went down with Synni 😭
Synthia has stated in her video that she's seeing a therapist for her issues so please don't hassle her about this.
Even though I don't know fully who Synni is I'm glad she's getting help
I doubt people watching this won't start harassing others, I'm pretty sure they all use Twitter
Ok thank god
Then why tf did you have to bring up her drama? That shit sucks and has to be uncomfortable to be held over her head. I’ve watched through the whole video and it could’ve done without the example of her to talk about black and white thinking.

The irony
Yup
@@crystalvulpine2314i agree the witch hunt may be a little to much and most times it doesn't help.
But this isn't the first time Synnibear has gotten herself into this kind of situations and unnecessary dramas. there have been multiple opportunities given to her and she gave so many apologies, but she always didn't seem to improve from her mistakes and got herself angry and annoyed of having to stop the things people were telling her to stop (example being her obsession towards another content creator which at the time was very problematic, wanting to manipulate them into a relationship. Showing inappropriate content towards minors. Romanticize sexual abuse. etc)

@@sakuraogami6885 But think about it, this is a minor with a huge platform. When you're placed into this kind of environment, especially the internet, things are bound to happen, we all make mistakes and synni is recieving help as well so we should be encouraging now more than ever. Especially after what she went through. Saying that it “isn’t hard to not suck” is oversimplifying the entire situation, and im not trying to say being a minor is an excuse, im saying its something that should be taken in consideration because at the end of the day synni still is a child, and because of that we shouldn’t be as harsh

I also wanna be clear on one thing, its not important but it is important to me, i am no longer friends with Birdie, since my video came out i have not spoken to her, I dont want people to still think I'm still being influenced by her. that is all i want to say. Thank you again 💓 💖 💗 💛 💕

Edit: oh god this comment did not age well. Synnibear03 ended up being a gross creep, good lord, this is actually foul.
It is a shame that quite often "cutesy" characters are bashed for being in horrible or taboo situations because "they are too cute so this is glorifying it", like, no; this is an issue not only online but in real life. Many abusers and even killers may be charming or cute but that doesn't mean they aren't capable of horrid actions. I am not a viewer of synnibear03, but I have seen clips of her abusive character and I think she did a fine job with it (from what I have seen). I actually think it is a good idea to show how anyone can be awful, not to trust anyone solely on appearance, "don't judge a book by its cover" sort of thing. The things attractive/cute people can get away with is evil, so I see her character as more of an awareness rather than glorifying the subjects, this could just be me though since I don't watch her and don't have an entire grasp on how she portrays it.
Yeah it's not glorifying or romanticing abuse but more of a representation of it. In her videos the abuser is represented as a monster rather than a cute uwu owo quirky character.
this same stuff happens on TikTok with ppl who draw cute characters in gory situations being bashed and saying that it romanticizes it, when it doesn't. also ive seen this happen with Melanie Martinez music
Reminds me of a similar situation with Admiral Ackbar, believe it or not.
The crew of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi mocked Ackbar and said he was "too ugly" to be a good guy.
Richard Marquand (the director of the movie) said "I think it's good to tell kids that good people aren't necessarily good looking people and that bad people aren't necessarily ugly people."
he refused to change the design, and gave us the Ackbar we all know and love today.
*"IT'S A TRAP!"*
Too bad she was also drawing characters in those situations for genuinely degenerate and evil reasons.

Honestly, the blame should be on the parents. Nowadays our parents give out the gadgets to extremely young impressionable 6 to 14 years old (even younger than that..) to let internet babysit them where predators and any bad influence can manifest to their own lives.
Parents need to consult and monitor their gadgets. What in the hell just happen with our generation nowadays?
Agreed
@@fatalhug5998 Yes, I agreed
Yeah, parents need to keep an eye on their children more, whether the children likes it or not.

Something like Birdie, Synnibear and other people involve in this "drama" (NO, this is not a drama anymore, its straight off committing crime!) have been affected and the damage has been done. Honestly i am ok with people holding minor's accountability but the blame and harsher accountability must be on Parents, too.
Birdie and the people involve there to commit heinous crime like this? Needs to get some serious help. If their parents can't take care of them then they should've done something else than letting it happen to them
Idk, that's just me. I wanted to say that why we have to blame on minors where parents are the main core of their lives? They should be the one to be blamed on.
@@hollabackcatto6701 Yeah, honestly. Why blame the minors when it’s their parents fault for giving them a technical device at a young age?

SO TRUE
So very true...

It might seem crazy what im boutta say..
Hey stream… why were you right…
Remember kids, not everything is black and white, it’s a lovely shade of grey.
and then one of them was a groomer. (it was synni, she confessed to grooming a 14 year old)
Who's gonna tell her?
About that argument of "if you draw this serious theme and add cutesy stuff, then you're romanticizing it" makes me mad like, if I take that logic of yours then I can say that Japan does it just for the fact that they portray serious themes with cutesy stuff when in reality, it's not that.
In Japan the topic of mental health is very taboo and with doing that they are spreading awarenesses about it, Jesus Christ I can't believe that argument still exists. Makes me feel ashamed of drawing creepy cute stuff :(
I hope the internet learns this time (although I doubt it) about not thinking in black and white, hearing all sides of the story and for the love of God creepy cute stuff exists and if that's not your cup of tea that's okay! But please don't start drama.
Edit (October 3rd 2024): ... So this didn't aged very well-
I heard abouth the allegations regarding Synnibear03 and that's completely horrible. I still stand by my opinion regarding serious topics in art with cute aesthetic (example: menhera) as long as the topic is treated with respect. What Synnibear03 did was anything BUT that, and grooming is not ok I can't believe there are still accusations of this nature to this day it makes me feel genuinely worried...
I hope the victims are okay and safe. What Synnibear03 did was absolutely disgusting :(
agreed 1000%. people who argue art with dark themes made to look cutesy are only reading that art literally, forgetting that art has different interpretations
This! Like if I’ve got a cutesy art style and I want to portray darker themes with my artwork, does that mean I have to change my art style?? Like lmfao where is the logic here

There was a point you brought up, and I very much agree with it. yes believe it or not bi ppl can make bi phobic comments. just bc ppl a person is bi doesn't mean they can be biphobic. blair white is a noticeable example of this. even though shes trans she still makes transphobic comments at other trans people.
For everyone saying Streamline is trying to "revive drama" if you could actually watch the full video, she has tried to review what Synni did and how others react and not giving her a chance to apologize for herself because it took months for Synni to make a video, yet people were being toxic behind her back in progress of making her video. No offense, but it's very embarrassing and pathetic how people are arguing over the comment section instead of watching the video.
She explains in full details of what went wrong and going over each sections. Please stop saying Streamline is trying to throw more fire into the drama, she puts an end to it and that's all, never on purpose. Overall, I love this video and I agree with you and most of your points on this drama that had happened! I am happy you were brave to explain it all very well! Take care of yourself Streamline!
Insert clapping
Omg thank you
Yes! And they’re saying “Synni doesn’t want the drama revived!” Which is just putting words into her mouth..it’s disgusting and hypocritical. We should wait and see if Synni likes it or not.
Stream will make another video soon...
Funny this got recommended to me to re-watch today...
3:29 - 3:36
Didn't Synni during that entire time of her understanding, scripting, then recording her video, while having a job, school, and I'm sure the mental issues that came with the drama, post on her community that she was working on it but to be patient?
I swore I saw like three posts of her saying that-
Yupe
Daydreaming is a form of escape just so yall know so I can understand why synni has a "vent world" and i can understand how that world changed her thoughts on Birdie cause that happened to me when I was in a relationship it wasn't fun and I hurt myself even if he was a manipulative little shit I hurt myself a lot cause I thought he was the best thing I'd ever get

hi streamline! this isnt a hate comment by any means but i just want to understand why my video lumped with all the other videos made on synni? ( 3:22 ) i wasnt even being like "grr synni should apologize faster grr" and i didnt want to "tear synni down". i made my original video because i felt as some of things used against synni were over exaggerated, nor did i want "synni to rush out a bad video", in fact i genuinely wanted to hear what synni had to say. my intention while making my video was to give synni the benefit of the doubt and to put some water over the fire that was this situation. im sorry if you misinterpreted what i was trying to say or what my motives were while watching the video, that is my fault as a content creator and mines alone. im still pretty new to commentary and trying to get better but i never had any ill intent against synni while making my video.

This didn't age well...
I'm gonna hold your hands when I say this....
Well this didn’t age very well
Agree with the kids not understanding certain mature things. I am 18 and even I don't touch certain subjects as I feel like I wouldn't be able to tackle them correctly. Minors in adult spaces is hazardous for both parties. Especially the minor down the line.
One of my pet peeves when it comes to situations where the minor is in places and doing things that they can't properly handle (the Your Boyfriend thing was a _perfect_ example of this) is them saying "I'm mature for my age!"
No, no you're not. And you won't be until several years later when your brain is fully developed. Why do you think its 18+? Because people that age and older can handle it. You cannot. (Heck even at my age I'm still not able to handle it. Why do you think the drinking age is 21?)
Kids get into taboo and freaky subjects because they want to be like the big boys, they want to be like the adults. But they arent old enough for it and cannot handle it. Fiction does affect reality and it's a dangerous slippery slope with kids involved.
So you guys saying that you're mature for your age, no, no you are not. You are not developed enough to handle it (even if you have seen things, in which case is another can of worms). Wait a few years, and THEN you will be able to. Take it from someone who has been in that "I'm more mature" phase.
There are kids out there who are actually more mature and can handle things like this easier and more responsibly than others. I discovered 18+ things when I was 11 but I was able to deal with it and here I am now just fine. Just because some have a situation like you doesn't mean they aren't more mature.
@@k1-b0keebo66 it still all depends tho
I understand that some mature faster, but those who are younger than the area that's for older members and such (18+ spaces) should not be in those spaces
(Ngl the fact you've found stuff at 11 kinda worries me but that's just me)
I agree with both of your points. It depends on people because there are people who will handle it more maturely then others. Thats just how it is we all aren't the same. But I also agree that even if you are *mature* for your age. Minors still shouldn't be in those type of places that are 18+ because there are some minors who just can't and it will mess them up pretty badly. I feel like in this generation currently tweens dont even exist because kids are trying to grow up fast and act like adults when they shouldn't be and should enjoy being a kid while they still can.
She should have know better too by now...

@@Toaster-draws Not anymore (for the better).
As a 14 year old myself, I honestly had the same view through the drama. Well mostly with the romanticizing r@pe and how ridiculous it was that people called Synni a predator to lgbtq women. Even hearing it from Dreamurr’s video I sort of went, “I’m sorry?” But yes, I can see your point of how people are so quick to believe that certain people can do no wrong and when they do it’s the end of the fucking world. But kids should know that not everyone in life is perfect and will never be perfect. Especially sense MOST drama in the animation meme community is just KIDS. Kids do stupid shit and they learn. It’s going to happen and having a RUclips channel with a big audience like Synni and birdie must be terrifying because all eyes are on them. And it’s hard when stuff gets leaked and doxxed with a blink of an eye.
Yeah if they learn their mistakes like synni did things will turn out right but then some times they don't like birdie and the issue will grow and grow.

As someone who got really angry at the very beginning, I remember when she made the “We need to talk.” video and I posted a long comment sympathizing and apologizing for what happened and she responded with like 1-2 words.
I, of course, being 14 and idolizing her, was very upset but didn’t let that anger go into the drama. (Someone else also commented calling me a kid and mocking me for only getting a short response 💃🏽✨)
In the Synni drama it was this (from a Fan’s view.) basically
Either you,
A. Stanned Synni and excused everything she did (even the bad things she’s admitted to) and attacked everyone who said anything about the things she has done wrong.
B. Hated her without ever even looking at evidence or her apology or anything and just wanting to put her down.
C. Kept neutral.
D. Was a mix.
Also, as someone who has severe ADHD, (possible!!!) clinical depression (my mom has it and I know it’s genetic and some times I just can’t stop the sadness/lows), anxiety, and Maladaptive daydreaming (and much more.)

Now, the thing with minors interacting with adult content or games. You used the Your Boyfriend game as an example correct? The adults who have played and interacted with the games make content, memes, and art about the main character which gets people who haven’t interacted with the fandom or game curious. Curiosity is a very strong thing, people will do anything to get information which is why I THINK many minors interact with adult content, they just want to know about it and get caught up in a bad way.

@@GaetorCreation i feel like when one says "18+" or "minors noy allowed" its taken as a challenge, most kids want to prove they can be mature and see grownup stuff
@@kosedelious2063 and if they did that in private I wouldn't be so angry
The problem is kids making Animation memes and fanart and be active and talk in the community
I was very disappointed with synni when I first heard about this but now I’m more disappointed in myself and the internet.
Synni is a human being like everyone else in this is strange world and we gave them too many expectations like all idols get. Birdie obviously doesn’t wanna change but Synni does. Sure Synni did some shitty things but so have we. We attacked them and other people because of one little mistake we did. We were all in the wrong here. I have been in an abusive friendship before and honestly it seemed like Birdie’s influence fueled Synni’s behavior which isn’t Synni’s fault because they can’t control Birdie’s behavior and influence on them.
I think Synni was just in a wrong place at the wrong time. It’s obvious that they struggle with mental health and I’m glad they’re getting help for it. All we need to do as fans is support them and also mind our own business.
Synni changed and I’m glad about that because that means we can all move forward and forget about the drama.
I think what’s ironic about this situation is that we do this when someone has done something bad but usually when we do something wrong, we defend our actions and think we’re in the right. It has to stop. No more god damn drama, please.
You have every right to be disappoint in her.
Hhhh. People acting like therapists in this community. Press X to doubt for this community to ever improve. Most of these people I understand were kids, but Synni was also one as well. I would never be able to put up with that shit. It just kinda hits home for me
Yep...
Oh how the tables have turned
To be honest, only people that should forgive synni are the communities of people she’s hurt and as a whole people who have been some kind of victim to her in her life, only if they WANT to aswell.
That point is perhaps now moot.
I'm just gonna watch this before I watch any of the recent drama stuff regarding her.
The song at the start-
Amazing
As someone who is planning on making a comic that touches upon these similar taboo topics I think I needed to see this video because I wasn't planning on adding an age rating to the comic, which I now know is VERY irresponsible lmao
A lot of drama comes from the fact that way too many kids are on the internet right now and soon we will have more adults to keep them in check (ie the kids on the internet now will grow up and be able to also police kids along with the pre existing adults)
Great video :D
She should've been the among adults who set standards for kid safety on the internet, instead she violated them in the most egregious ways.
Oh dear, Your Boyfriend is a whole topic of it's own 😅
What does this have to do with anything
@@Jynxxx5 ah, she done a brief picture mention of YBF in one of the sections and I was surprised to see it. So I've noticed no one talkin abt it, cause ofc it's not the point of the video. But I wanted to mention it
@@cannibee47 ah I see now. I guess that glossed over me. Funny how she says that when the creator is making a SFW version once the NSFW version is done and the main account for the game is trying their best to block minors from seeing their stuff.
@@Jynxxx5 i guess they are also talking about how minors are ignoring that a sfw version is coming out and are still gonna look at the gameplays of the nsfw version because "they are mature". as a minor who is waiting for the sfw version, there are sadly alot of minors who are doing that.
@@ranchustars3050 yeah and we shouldn’t blame the creators or even the minors for that, cuz the official Twitter page is trying their best to check if any of their followers are of age which can be hard cuz the game is slowly getting traction and we shouldn’t blame the minor because they’re not mature enough to realize they shouldn’t be looking at it…or they do know but want to seem cool and older like you said.
Can we just appreciate the amount of effort put in the speed paint
Like THOSE CLOUDS LOOK SO REAL HOW DO YOU DO IT
I am pretty sure Birde still wants to go by he/him, but he went back to she/her because of his parents.
19:22, That's why I want to do research on those matters. Because I've seen way too many kids falling for romanticized and bastardized versions of serious topics. For example:
Some of my characters are victims of SA, not because I'm trying to give them a sob story but because that's simply how their story went. I am researching how PTSD can affect the brain and attempting to show it through properly made stories. Am I perfect? No, I'm still a bit new to making proper storylines and scripts, but I can try my hardest to improve and learn.
Also sorry if this comment seems a bit wonky, I'm kinda tired and mentally drained.
Similar situation! Currently doing research on depression for my OC/Main character in the story. Can you recommend some good places to research? Wikipedia is good and all but it’s still not enough
@@EpicSandwich301 [🍰] Try the Mayo Clinic. They're super resourceful..
@@Phantasmagora thanks!
@@EpicSandwich301 [🍰] You're very welcome!..
I'm totally saddened by the fact people shamed synthia for having mental illness. As someone who was proffesionally diagnosed by therapists and doctors, you can't just "stop" being mentally ill, sure you can "stop" it by taking medications and go to therapy sessions and talk to a psychologist, but it won't fully "stop" and you can't just easily get rid of it. Mental illnesses aren't your regular illnesses like having a flu...it's a mental thing, that stays with you for the rest of your life, and it's really hard to live like that. People should feel ashamed, because shaming someone for being mentally ill is kinda ableist imo.
And you can control not interacting with minors too
The moment I learned about what Synni did, I felt...betrayed? So eventually I just unsubbed.
But then I saw her saying that she wanted to make an apology video, I decided to keep my opinion as undefined. But I knew I was genuinely angry at the people who were impatient and kept expressing it. I even remember someone saying amongst the lines of : "You know, it's your fifth post about 'taking your time'. I'm starting to think you spend more time doing these posts rather than actually working on the video."
Well...
The Birdie situation is so depressing too me.
From what I can remember, Birdie is currently offline getting help in therapy improving tenfold. I personally don’t care if he never returns, I just hope the information is correct and that he is recovering and changing. For real this time. Spoctor touched on it briefly on one of his recent videos. There’s probably more info elsewhere
Thank you for making video :DD I wanted to know what this drama was but I couldn’t find good videos but thank you making this :))
As someone who has maladaptive daydreams multiple times everyday for years- I don’t think it’s an disorder but rather a coping mechanism? If it is a disorder then that’s news to me-
Man this DID NOT age well..😨
Sometimes I get very mad at the canceling because it always go after people who make small mistakes. Like people who make cute characters and backgrounds while making it creepy and dark as well. In Gator’s video, they said that animations have a symbol in them. There are people who have characters that are fucked up and stuff like that, but people don’t attack them for that because the people know that the person who made that character doesn’t support or fantasize those stuff.
Maybe not in this case...
I was surprised to see a video on Synni from three years ago. I know you’re really busy with life but perhaps you should check the comments on this video. Not only has she outed herself for talking explicitly with minors *while* being an adult not a child, two RUclipsrs blew up their careers over her.
I know you couldn’t have known this would happen especially since she has a history of lying to people to save her own skin, but you should probably pin a comment about it.
And remember kids: your sexuality primerely depends on hormones. Majority of people are bisexual and it's normal according to our nature, but because of our sosaciety rules we sometimes cant realize that.
Haven't finished the video yet, but I swear so that so many aspects of this drama were really gross looking back on it now. I just- It really fun pisses me off to know that people are this awful and to know that I believed a lot of this shit. Yes, I always thought that Synni should have the right to use her vent world and I felt bad for her because of what she was going through. But I just regret the rest. No, I am not going to defend everything she's done, but this could've been handled a lot better. And to Synni, I'm sorry. I didn't want you to be cancelled or anything like that, but I actively gave the misinformation discussed in both this video and the comment section, which wasn't my intention but I still believed it to be the truth. I'm glad that you've apologized for your actual wrongdoings and improved, and I hope to follow in your footsteps. I keep finding out that I have made so many mistakes because of who I put my trust in and my lack of research which only makes me feel worse. This is why I am trying to remember that it was the past and that I am still improving, and that I should address my mistakes and learn from them. Thank you Stream for creating this video. My eyes have been opened to the reality and I'm glad that I've started to try and listen to how I really feel instead of trying to perpetuate whatever stupid shit the internet has to say.
Edit: The only thing I disagree with so far is the whole thing about how younger kids shouldn't be writing about abuse and stuff. I think it should depend on maturity and how young the kid actually is. Obviously 10 year olds shouldn't be writing about that, but older kids should be allowed to if they have enough maturity to do so and understand to a degree that abuse is wrong. Also it's quite helpful for coping with shit. Take it from me, some random 13 year old weirdo on the internet who likes creating characters who have suffered from childhood trauma as a way of coping with some things. I've just exposed myself to a lot of shit on purpose because I like dark and disturbing stories, but I wouldn't exactly recommend this to most for obvious reasons.
Off topic to the video, the art is amazing
Okay moment I heard"Somebody once told me... " I got completely dead inside
6:29 That is also like saying that someone needs to just get over an allergy whenever they sneeze near a dog (for context and I also have that same allergy, all though it is starting to fade.)
Edit (9/16/2024): Wow, this comment and video has aged weirdly given the circumstances. I just feel really sad going back to this. :(
Honestly, the Synni drama was just one big mess that could have been avoided if people had handled things better and didn’t make the same mistakes others made in different dramas (like how in the hopeless peaches drama, only one youtuber talked to her, like how only 2 talked to Synni to get her story during the drama).
I know I feel bad over this drama because I made stupid comments that went along with the narrative going on with Synni being a bad person (and unintentionally spreading some false info) and even going to the point of thinking her apology video was gonna be bad in another comment on dreamur’s deleted video. Thankfully I deleted these comments after realizing how awful and dumb they were but I still feel guilty over them. I hope if any future drama’s like this happen that people can finally learn from the Synni and hopeless peaches drama’s before jumping onto sides but I doubt it.
TLDR: Stay the hell outta drama’s and don’t pick sides until you see both sides of the story.
Yea I agree,I feel like this person lowkey made it worse by applying themselves to the situation yknow there are a lot of flaws in this video I want to point out,one pissed me off where they kept saying something then switching up saying "we won't talk about it,its not my place" in my head I'm just asking why did they bring it up in the first place,which gives more people to feed into the drama. I just think that if they didn't apply themselves to the drama there wouldn't be much of a problem,,
@@chocolatemilk2686 I wasn’t talking about Streamline Workshop current video (Aka this one) but other’s in the drama in general. Also I take this video more as critiquing the drama and how it was handled by others and themselves. They didn’t want to speak on the relationship because it wasn’t their place and wanted to address that they shared private info they shouldn’t have shared.
@@SpaceySodaPop oh them nvm I understand now lol
@@SpaceySodaPop yes and about the relationship, even so there are people who will go out of there way to harass about the situation now that has been brought up,because now their curios I'm seeing some people asking about it and even on said they was gonna find info,Either way This person shouldn't have brought it up because at the end of the day we cant control the curiosity of young children who are now intrigued on the relationship topic,if Synni wants to talk ab it let them,dont bring it up in the video because its lowkey type dumb and off.
I remember when synni was scootaloo loves sans..man that feels like forever
Turns out it was Scootaloo loves Frisk
This is very well done! I agree with all you said and I'm relieved to see someone finally say what needed to be said. People need to stop sticking their noses into other people's personal business, it's really creepy lol. The arrogance and entitlement of this community is just really pathetic and sad sometimes
Well well well...
