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 💓 💖 💗 💛 💕

People stop trying to cancel minors challenge

Synthia has stated in her video that she's seeing a therapist for her issues so please don't hassle her about this.

looking back is kinda messed up how we wanted synni to stay away from birdie but synni was the one who ended up getting him away from his ab*sive environment and into a safe place

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

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 🦥

"Bisexuals don't exist" Bisexual people: Ah damn, you right😔 *'disappears'*

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?

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.

*Guys. Streamline isn’t trying to revive the drama. She’s just reviewing it and telling us and younger kids how to do better. Stop saying she’s trying to bring it back. She even makes a claim saying not to harass anyone mentioned. If she can do the same for Birdie (who hasn’t improved) then why can’t she do it for Synni? (Who has improved as far as I’m aware)* Edit: *my god if Synni was uncomfortable she would/will say something about this video being made. Stop putting words into her mouth I’m sure she’s dealt with that a lot already.* Edit 2: well shit, Stream said she *DID* get permission…so s h u t. Though I don’t agree with a lot of things said/shown in the video, can we stop with the stupid comments

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?

Remember kids, not everything is black and white, it’s a lovely shade of grey.

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.

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!

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-

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.

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

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

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.

Horrid subject portrayed in a cutesy artstyle ≠ Romantization of Horrid subject

aged like milk, but im still glad this was made at the time

Another thing she is no longer friends with birdie.

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 KZfaq 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.

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.

Ok but like, cant we just appreciate the improvement of Streams art and organization of the video

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.

At least she apologized tho

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

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.

Birdie is like Chris Chan of the art community. I bet she's going to jail too when she turns 18.

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

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.

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.

Oh dear, Your Boyfriend is a whole topic of it's own 😅

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.

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.

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."

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.

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.

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

i love the way you talk about things, youre really mature.

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.

I am pretty sure Birde still wants to go by he/him, but he went back to she/her because of his parents.

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.

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-

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 :))

Can we just appreciate the amount of effort put in the speed paint Like THOSE CLOUDS LOOK SO REAL HOW DO YOU DO IT

When all these people getting canceled and harassed are literal kids.

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.

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.

The Birdie situation is so depressing too me.

And then they were roommates 😦(Birdie and synni)

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.

I feel like we should also (at least partially) blame EvidenceFound01 for this situation as well. It's a channel run by children, dedicated to canceling other children 😂

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.

The song at the start- Amazing

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

Off topic to the video, the art is amazing

Ngl I was kinda worried when I saw you tweet about this but I’m glad you handled it actually maturely

Okay moment I heard"Somebody once told me... " I got completely dead inside

Seriously what's wrong with the internet (weirdly enough mostly twiiter) and canceling minors? Don't they forget that minors can be dumb and don't have their brains fully developed? Or that people can learn and or see what's wrong with their past actions and learn from their mistakes? Seriously I think that like in the past kids shouldn't be on the internet because it's so toxic and allows terrible people to hurt them

im so glad you're doing your part and taking time to review these things and warning the impressionable younger kids on the internet, your work is never unappreciated :]

THIS. I swear I could not agree with the video overall more. The internet is just an incredibly huge mess, and humanity is just becoming more and more ignorant on sensitive subjects, it makes me sick to think that there is so much misinformation being spread, and that extremely immature thought of content creators being perfect people, as long as I know content creators usually portrait their internet persona with no huge flaws despite certain personality traits, however once they commit a huge mistake their audience are not used to such thing thus, the impact it has is much bigger, and somehow even if they apologize people will try to drag their reputation even further down. in Synni's case, let's be real, REAL monsters do not look scary, or have something off about them that you can spot on plain sight, characters who have bright colors and look cutesy that does not mean automatically that everything they do is right, Taki is an example, but somehow, just because they look cute a lot of misinterpretation is spread and call her out for "romanticizing" real issues, just completely absurd. 21:26 Honestly, I am a minor and the game is literally hunting me lol But as soon as I saw the creator's wish of minors not playing the game nor interacting with the community I understood and decided to respect it, I saw that there was a SFW version coming out so I was sure that I'd wait for the SFW version to come out, or until I turned 18. Whatsoever, it is really hard for a content creator to control who see their videos and who don't, that's a huge issue of the internet, minors often are exposed to things they should not see nor interact with, so they rather get a lot of information they may not understand fully and try to spread false information or mature way faster losing any glance of innocence or childhood.

Wait... Maladaptive day dreaming is a disorder. I'm not diagnosed if so but I can confirm I 100% do it on a daily basis and it's a habit that I even get distracted from important tasks. Is that a problem?

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.)

THE HOPELESS PEACHES REFERENCE OML

offtopic but i love the intro song,, its hilarious but also oddly calming

*Slowly fades in Your boyfriend on the screen* *Sigh* Does minors not know or respect the "Minors, Do not interact" sign? They be getting their nose into that game even though it is NOT meant for kids (I think the creator stopped on the project???)

Haven’t completely watched the video yet so idk if this was said already but For anybody who, after all of this, isn’t comfortable supporting synni or watching their videos, that’s completely valid: you’re entitled to your own opinions. The issue arises when you go out of your way to tear her down or cancel her or whatever, or call people who like her content bad people. Nobody is going to force you to feel a certain way and as such you shouldn’t force others to feel the same as you either.

Annapantsu at the beginning was a surprising but welcome intro.

Spot on man! Some key points like how we need to stop thinking in black and white and how us looking at things one sided is bad and how kids need to stay away from adult topics and how people should put trigger warnings and stuff. Yeah completely agree and understand what you mean with how the community can misinterpret things and how we need to keep matters like this more private. Because as soon as word gets out, it can just spark chaos like this again. And like Stream says "Other peoples problems aren't your problem to deal with" the only time I would say it would be good to expose someone is if the person has a chance of putting peoples safety or mental health at risk, like groomers and pedo's etc Then yeah, you should probably warn people about that to prevent others from getting hurt. Other than that don't go around poking at peoples personal business. Make sure to listen to warnings on content and make sure to put content/trigger warnings on some content you make and always try to see more than one sides to the story. Anyway stay safe everyone and be kind ^w^

I remember when synni was scootaloo loves sans..man that feels like forever

honestly... all I have to say is this is why I stay away from people in the art community 😬

so the animation meme community its like this: every fucking person has to be popular and perfect to be loved when u slip up ur finished u get hated on like what happened to the old community

I dont know what to say- except i am IN LOVE with that drawing-

somebody once told me the world was gonna roll me

As someone with maladaptive day dreaming, it literally gets triggered by somthing and it’s uncontrollable, you can’t just stop cause your mind is just racing ,and people bashing her for this is just wrong. She was also my favorite child hood KZfaqr when she went by “scootaloo loves sans” but that was a very VERY long time ago

TW// Doxxing , Death threats okay as a minor myself i hate it when people cancel other minors and then hate on them even going for as sending death threats and/or dox threats like people stop hating on people who did something wrong wont make u a better person

This is new

To be honest, being one of the people that had their comment in Synni’s apology video, when it came out, I had realized how rude I sounded in it. Since my views on it changed a lot since then. I find it funny that these things have continuously happened, being pointed to the wrong person or being down right wrong about it. I’m glad you talked about this even now after the drama’s done, since this is most of the communities fault for 1. Being impatient for an apology video and 2. Taking every bit of evidence, even some that is alleged, to be 100% the truth and only the truth. I’m also glad the community has realized the mistake and has dropped it from there. I still can’t believe people didn’t take any consideration towards this being synni’s first “mistake” since most of the time, creators have no clue what to do when a huge amount of people talk about you and make videos on your actions and private conversations. But we can’t change what we did, all we can do is learn from the mistakes, even though Synni has only had made some minor mistakes and even some major ones, I’m glad their now using the mistakes and learning from them.

Hey there! I know I've mentioned this many times but I am Julian (Racco) and I'm no longer dating Birdie and is a male. I no longer say racist things and I would like if you didn't refer me as Birdie's partner as I am not in a relationship with Birdie

thank you for this

This hurts my head

Thanks for reviewing this

ik i used 2 be involved w. cancel culture but looking back at it now makes me wanna bash my skull in lMAO like ok we get it a minor (some1 under 18;;btw ur not fully mature at 18 anyways :/) did something or said something bad. who cares. calmly educate said individual, and move on. no need 2 make like 500000000000 vids. anyways i agree w. everything u said in here

Honestly, I know this video is about Synni, but I can’t believe I used to watch birdies videos, I had no idea about the drama, and it makes me sick knowing people like her exist… (NOT saying she should not exist, but she needs to get private, personal help!)

I really appreciated a lot of the things you said in this video because of the way they deeply reflected the really bad mistakes I made when I was younger. When I was about 9-10. I was exposed to non-suitable content for my age that led me to have an unhealthy view on concepts like sexual assault and abuse. I romanticized these things because -as you mentioned- I was being exposed to inappropriate gacha content that crossed wires in my brain and led me to associate these topics with the cutesy chibi style of the characters, thus creating sort of an unintentional association of cutesy romanticism with really messed up sexual topics... as a 10-11 year old kid, i grew up to not properly understand or process the appeal of these topics, and it regrettably led to me making some messed up gacha content myself. I created OCs just to fulfill fantasies of murder, violence and SA, and looking back im honestly repulsed that the exposure altered my brain in such a disgusting way... Nowadays, I'm turning 17 and I have a better understanding of these topics and know NOT to handle them the way I did as a child. I still have some of the OCs I made back then, some of which retaining sensitive traumas in their character lores, but I've taken care to handling the topics much more carefully! I tend to resent myself for the mistakes i made back then, but I understand now that I was simply a victim of circumstance and it wasn't my fault that those ideas were planted in my mind. I still feel bad thinking of the things I used to make back then, but I try not to beat myself up over it - I was young and didnt understand what I was doing, but now I can put that behind me, and instead of trying to erase it, I can embrace the mistakes I made and come out of it more informed :) So thanks, Stream

this entire drama was a mistake.

Who is synnibear and why is their art style so nostalgic- Oh yeah. Scootaloolovessans.

If you think that this is reviving the drama, it isnt. Its only bringing light to the situation and telling people how they handle drama in the community with minors isnt right.

OMG!! I love ur videos and I 100% agree with u I never been in online drama but irl drama and well I lost alot of friends irl and as for sinning I never really mind her problems I knew they were bad but never harrased her for it because ik she would figure it but I'm proud of her tbh she a good person also I watch every video u make and I love listening to u and love drawing to it plus I hope I never go down this road but keep up ur amazing work and u always make my day ^^

As much as i am not really a big fan of kids/minors in the art community with a following (hello edgy Gachatubers), i am not one to cancel them for petty reasons. That's just straight up bullying. While i avoid these kinds of creators, i do so not because i dislike them but rather i find them to me discomforting since precious internet drama surrounding these creators paint them in a very bad light. I know full well that not all of them are like this, the ones i tend to encounter and recommended are. I hope Synni gets out of this mess in a clean slate because no child should ever be in that mess in the first place. in fact, not every child should have an internet following at a young age.

*Ya know- to be honest- *I'm kinda scared to join the art community ;-; *I'm planning on joining when I get the motivation I guess *Now that these kinds of situations going on around the internet, I don't really know anymore :') *Especially with those people who spread rumors and fake news to those specific artists, and maybe include others that aren't involved in the situation at all-

22:35 I'm 14 and I am a victim of abuse and even I someone who has been put through something so horrific still have a hard time grasping it and giving my story the light it deserves and what I shouldn't or should say publicly I believe that instead of getting into drama about such sensitive subject matter as a way of getting information about such topics talk about it to a parent or guardian therapist teacher ect or even adults that have been through something like that themselves I've seen vent art labeled as romanticized this or that and people who are just trying to cope in a healthy ways with or without platforms get cancelled or harassed and I think this video really shears the light on this part of the art Community that it deserves
