STOP YAPPING - Tumblr Posts
SHUT THE FUCK UP I BEG OF YOU
There is so many things wrong with these "sOuRcEs" that it's fucking mind boggling how these can be considered credible if you don't have the mental stability of a TikTok Toddler.
I didn't say shit about beliefs. All I did was ask for proof.
Bc all in the notes you were saying all these wacky accusations without viable proof, and this Reblog here just proves it.
Here's the corrections here:
1. "He is a massive racist and misogynist."
So yeah... About that proof that I asked? Where is it?
2. "His co-host Dan Avidan is also a Groomer and a Zionist."
This is based off of allegations which has been proven false. Everything that happened with Dan was consensual (As they were both grown adults), and even then the evidence wasn't that credible in the first place.
As for the zionism? Again, proof? (There's also a possibility that Rubberross doesn't know shit about the Zionism in the first place)
3. The source for Joel supporting the creator of FNF is barely credible, bc all it leads is to a Tumblr ask, with info that is also not really credible bc it just shows a screenshot that barely shows anything. It just shows Joel showing disdain for "cancel culture" which was a popular discussion at the time, with a couple threads here and there. For all one could know, the image might not be about the FNF creator at all.
4. Kekeflipnote's animation was from 10 years ago, in an era of the internet where this kind of offensive humor was rampant and many people were uneducated about what people found offensive. (Aside from the N word/F word). Much like with many internet celebs that have been called out, Keke might've not even known that "Ladyboy" was a slur.
(Also, where's the Pedophilia? It just shows a critter chasing a butterfly and some drag)
5.
Where's the racism?! All I get is a tweet from 6 years ago about Sr Pelo likely being uneducated about the word "Transexual". (Which is a word that is still DEBATED to be offensive or not by the trans community.)
Yes, he was ignorant about it considering him saying that "this was created this year" and "why being aggressive to a drawing?", but like with Keke, straight up assuming he's a full on bigot bc he was uneducated about a word is ignorant.
6. "Psychicpebbles defending Shadman"
From 9 YEARS ago.
I couldn't find when specifically Shadman was first outed, but from the difference between the newer comments and the older comments on this episode I'm assuming that this was before the knowledge of his atrocious art became mainstream.
If you can find a more RECENT thing about Psychic defending Shadman, then maybe this point can still stand.
7. For the third time in this reblog, I ask you of this:
Proof?
(Also just bc an artist is a pos doesn't mean the show is a pos)
Speaking of asking for it, now that everything is addressed, Imma just call out the fact that like most of this is just yapping about random bullshit with little to no reliable sources, if ANY at all.
The funny thing is that you wouldn't be involved here if you were literate enough to READ TAGS!
So even IF they were all true, it won't matter anyway. Bc in the first place this isn't about morality but more about listing good projects (Since Anon was saying Tracy, Glitch, and Vivziepop were like "corporate empires" in Indie animation and are "exploiting people".)
Like, why would you even bother anyway?!
I hope you know that literally nobody is going to be able to live up to the standard you, V*v, and Glitch have set and your arrogance and exploitation of your fanbase and connections has screwed millions of creatives out of their dreams because Hollywood is a joke that isn't worth telling and wealthy e-celebs like yourself have claimed the indie scene all to yourselves and moved the goalposts into the stratosphere.
Nope. This isn't a zero sum game. There is not some limited, prescribed number of indie trophy slots that a few studios greedily filled up, blocking everyone else out. That is not how it works. Nothing any other creator is doing - short of personally sending hired goons to your doorstep or stealing your credit cards - is taking anything away from you or preventing your success. In fact if an indie creator can manage to demonstrate that they've got something viable going, it may help to map out a pathway for others.
I think I'm not going to bother trying to address whether or not cartoons in return for support from fans - an entirely voluntary exchange - constitutes exploitation. And I'm living in the Midwest driving a 2007 economy car with 200k+ miles on it, but let's just skip past the assumptions that I'm wealthy and connected too.
Instead, let's get to the weirdly myopic notion that the indie scene is held captive by three studios. Maybe YouTube algorithms or Twitter bubbles are somewhat to blame, but in actuality there are so, so many individual people, friend groups, and small production houses out there making independent animation, I cannot possibly name them all.
Here are some anyway:

By no means a full list. That's just YouTube, and mostly just English language stuff, and I didn't even get to the multitudes of Warrior Cats animation collabs.
The point is, the indie landscape is vast and populated by creators new and old, making all kinds of animated media from skits, to shows, to ARGs, to films. Audience sizes vary as much as the content, stylistic approaches, subject matter, and budgets do. There are no compliance standards, no gateways to entry, no goalposts. There's not even any preset definition of success except what you decide for yourself.
Anyway, instead of nurturing your resentments, consider making something. I assure you, it's a far more rewarding use of your time and energy, and pretty much no one can stop you. ------------- EDIT- Made some additions to the list based on comments. Thanks!
