the wilbur soot situation

hi

im not a very big person on social media, nor do i post often, but i just want to get this out of my system. this post is just going to be a little rant and my take on the current situation. to anyone who is not yet caught up to the situation, i hope this can help a bit.

TW: discussions of abuse, domestic violence, death threats, etc

--------------------------------

when i first saw a video about wilbur soot's allegations, i thought it wasn't anything that bad. things like this happen to cc's all the time.

a while later, it kept popping up. i still thought it would go away eventually. i'm not proud of it in hindsight, but i cant change the past.

recently, i realized this situation was serious, and decided to catch up and investigate. what i was not prepared for was having my view of the world absolutely shattered. this will not go away. it will not be silenced by fanatics who believe their favourite cc can do no wrong. this is extremely serious.

a bit of backstory, so that my reasoning can clearly be understood:

i started getting into dsmp in around the start of 2021. i was immediately drawn to the dynamics of sbi as a group and started watching mainly their pov-s of things. the three quickly became a part of my daily life. i have been watching them ever since. went through some really bad times, especially after technoblade's death. after that, i started watching wilbur and phil more.

wilbur soot, i highly doubt you will read this, but if you do, i want you to know that I am disgusted by you, your behaviour, your response to said behaviour coming to light, and your sheer cowardice. you are a disgusting human being. there is no justification for your actions. no apology can undo what you have done. and from what i have heard and seen, shubble might not be the only victim.

as of my writing this, wilbur soot has not given any more responses besides the emotionless and frankly disgusting apology published on twitter/x

an overview of everything, my take on this situation, and just a little vent:

wilbur soot is an abuser and a manipulator. he ignored consent and a set safe word. as someone who heavily believes that consent and respecting it is common sense, i am disgusted, to say the least. i recommend reading more on the situation and watching an unbiased and neutral video

i looked for any possible justification, any way this could be misunderstood or redeemed. i have found none.

this man was my idol. i looked up to him, respected him, and admired him deeply. he was my comfort streamer and one of my favourite musical artists.

because of this, i will find it extremely difficult to cut him out of my life completely. however, i do not support him or condone his behaviour in any way. i don't think i will be able to completely sever all bonds to him. that's what abusers do, isn't it? they worm themselves into your life, make themselves irreplaceable, and, once their toxicity is discovered, they guilt trip you into staying, or make you think it's your fault or just paranoia.

the people who try to justify his behaviour, belittle or blame the victims of his abuse, or frankly any abuse, are absolutely disgusting. karma is a bitch, and i hope it hits them hard.

wilbur soot, it seems, has blown up his own career just like he did to l'manburg. i hope to never hear about him again, except to see him be brought to justice. domestic abuse is a felony.

my message for shubble:

you are incredibly brave. to speak up at all about anything like this takes a lot of courage. i despise the fact that the obsessive fans are threatening and blaming you. it is disgusting. but i am happy to see that you are still standing strong. your story has inspired others to come forward and take this man down once and for all.

EDIT: Insight a few days later

there have been more people telling their stories. the 'allegations' can no longer be referred to as such. i now add 'rapist' to the many words one uses to talk about this horrendous man.

i personally feel a bit gaslit myself. this person so many praised and referred to as this perfect man turned out to be an absolute incel.

one thing i noticed after looking through old clips is that there were in fact signs that seem obvious now. niki also mentioned the biting a few years ago. however, we all laughed it off as a bit. because we thought it was. because we were lead to believe it was. in one clip, wilbur tells niki to 'tell them how horrible i am to you,' and proceeds to start fucking hoovering. and everyone laughs it off. because that's his thing.

there are also signs in some of the songs in both ycgma and those released separately. especially your new boyfriend, soft boy, and the nice guy ballad. the last one is the most chilling. there are also some lyrics in ycgma, like 'abuse those i love/while i ostracize the ones who love me back'.

to end my little rant/essay, if wilbur soot is a manipulator, what is to stop him from (consciously or subconsciously) applying these behaviours to his online presence?

i genuinely hope he can get help and improve as a person, but that does not excuse his past behaviour. neither does his bad mental state during said behaviours.

I agree to all of this. I am very disappointed, SBI was my life for a while and now it is down to 2. Just because it is my favorite does not mean i will support an abuser. Fuck you William Gold. And support to Shubble ❤

Smth that infuriates me about the streamer/mcyt community is that pretty privilege is so real.

With the Wilbur situation dying down and the freaks who still choose to support the Brighton biter becoming more open and comfortable I have to point out the fact that if William Gold was not conventionally attractive he and his band of terrible people would not still be making money.

They would not support a man who didn’t clean his home and lived with bugs just to wait for his girlfriend to clean it, bit his girlfriend to the point of the need for a safe word (which he ignored!), and was so selfish to only care about fame if he were ugly.

Please listen and support shubble aka Shelby story and support and share what you can.

I am shocked by the news what happened.

And here is all I’m gonna say please again support support support Shelby. She deserves all the love and support from everyone and her story.

Stop giving attention to Wilbur.. this is not his story. This is Shelby. Again please support her and give her all the love that she needs

Again I will say this again and again.

P.S. SUPPORT SHUBBLE

I wanna make a post talking about Wilbur Soot because what he did wasn't right. I won't be posting anymore Lovejoy content or Wilbur Soot content. Finding out he is an abuser and a disgusting person has totally turned me away. I hope you guys can understand. And also to Shubble, remain strong honey. I'm so sorry you had to go through that abuse from someone you trusted. <3 If Wilbur Soot is able to change, maybe own up to his mistakes or give a proper damn apology, then I'll think about coming back. The fact that his friends instantly called him out for his shitty apology shows how frequent these anger and abuse problems are. Now looking back at videos of tommy flinching whenever Wilbur Soot raised his hand in the slightest. This is the end of the Lovejoy and Wilbur Soot era for me. Goodnight.

(Edit: Many of my friends have been asking if I'll still listen to lovejoy. I'm afraid the answer is no. There is the term "Separate the art from the artist" but I just can't. Whenever I listen to them, I feel sick to my stomach. I'm not going to be supporting them and I'm no longer going to wear my Lovejoy merch. I've removed any and all posts about Wilbur or Lovejoy on my blog. Sincerely, Dylan)
