    Hope you enjoyed the video! Let me know if y'all are as deep into booktok/book twitter drama as i am LOL

    The thing about this whole drama is, all she had to do was nothing. Sit down and soak it all in. That’s LITERALLY ALL SHE HAD TO DO.

    I'm diagnosed with multiple mental health issues and I would never dream of using it as an excuse to be vile to someone because of the walk of life they come from. I sure won't be supporting Cait's work any time soon and will instead support the works of the people she bullied.

      100%!! I myself have struggled with mental health in varying degrees for so long. It can definitely offer an explanation to her actions, but it’s no excuse to do the things she did. Especially certain aspects of it. Agreed on supporting the other authors she targeted instead!

    So much effort devoted to being a jerk... I can hardly muster the energy to get out of bed some days, how did she do it

      Would have been so much easier to just support her fellow authors and they’d support her!

    Thank you! I have tried to watch videos about this, because it's an interesting topic, but because I'm not familiar with the players none of the videos I tried to watch made sense. You did a GREAT job giving background on everyone, acronyms, etc so that people who aren't into booktok/goodreads/etc can easily follow along.

    Providing all the receipts 👏🏻 Honestly, under mental health struggles is a human whom is making these decisions and choices and people need to accept responsibility for their actions. It may explain the actions but we are all responsible for what we put out into this world

    • @KylaJames
      @KylaJames  Год назад +1

      So so true, like you said it’s definitely somewhat of an explanation, but ultimately she still did what she did, and as the individual it’s up to her to rectify that however she can and own up to it.

    This is wild! Imagine how much easier reaching across and lifting each other up would be instead of trying to tear others down. I feel sorry for her and why she thought she should do this and would get away with it 😞

    • @KylaJames
      @KylaJames  Год назад +3

      100%! That’s what I’ll never get. If she didn’t do this, and instead lifted her fellow authors up they would have all supported her too I’m sure!!
