Comment on 'This is definitely my last TwitchCon': High-profile streamer Emiru was assaulted at the event, even as streamers have been sounding the alarm about stalkers and harassment

  Who’s blaming the victim?

  I’m blaming the one-way relationship celebrity culture. It seems like a breeding ground for people with serious social issues.

  Pointing out who is likely to be a fan of hers isn’t “blaming the victim”. It’s being realistic about what she has to deal with. It shouldn’t happen, but bad people exist. Can’t ignore that.

  Let’s be honest here, Emiru is literally a bland do-nothing loser who cultivated her fan… I mean cult in a certain way to make it easier for her to fleece money off of desperate men.

  No one’s denying it is assault. In fact a lot of people say incident was waaaaaay too outrageous to be not considered staged. (Remember the whole Amouranth’s fake abuse case where she framed her husband & was later revealed to be bullshit.)

  At the end of the day, the person will go to jail, but this was a case of their toxic manipulative behaviour backfiring on them.

      That’s YOUR interpretation. The correct one is she doesn’t deserve it; but let’s not kid ourselves. If it was someone like Asmongold (who I don’t like) you’d be singing a very different tune

    What you’ve just done here is called “victim-blaming”

      I believe you skipped over the part where I said it was assault

        Acknowledging it was assault is not the same thing as not blaming the victim. People who say “she deserved to get raped” are acknowledging that a victim was raped.

        I’ve not looked into Amouranth. This thread is about Emiru. Who is not culpable - in any way - for her assault. This is not something “backfiring” on her.
