So essentially when he says he's not a vtuber, its the same as bronies saying they're not furries because of some arbitrary distinction nobody but them acknowledges.
When it comes to bronies and furries, my take has always been that they’re different. Whilst furries are in it specifically for the anthropomorphisization of animals, bronies like a show whose cast happens to be animals. Usually when I see people try to get rid of this distinction, it’s cause they see furries as this ultimate evil, and want to hate bronies so they need to connect the two.
But, while they’re different in goals and interests, they’re the same in ranking. When it comes to how weird and cringey it makes you, they’re nearly equal. So when bronies try to deny they’re furries or vice versa, it’s a fruitless endeavor. Cause even if they manage to convince the listener that they’re different, said listener’s opinion won’t change on whether he thinks they’re cool or not.
It’s like the difference between emo and goth. They’re different but they’ll get you bullied in school all the same.
This is different however, a vtuber is literally just someone who uses a model in lieu of their face. Like there is literally no other interpretation of what this man is.
Yeah.Though his reasons of rejecting the Vtuber label are dumb
View attachment 104389
he really doesnt operate differently
-Be virtual tuber
-Play games
The only thing that he does Differently is his humor.
And he’s rejecting it for the same reason furries reject bronyism or goths reject emo-ism. Because he associates the title with a stigma that’s embarrassing to him. But I always found it simple, if the stigma is so embarrassing, just stop doing the thing.
You’re not going to get rid of the connection between your content and the thing you like, so idk man. Show you face or just turn off camera in general.
Stop doing the thing or stop being so insecure.
