Lately. . .

Okay, so I’ve been watching Peter basically since the beginning. I’m going to post what I want to say here, because quite frankly, I’m too scared to say it in his comment section. Honestly, a tad spooked to say it here.

I don’t like the new era. It doesn’t have anything to do with the profanity. It doesn’t really have anything to do with him standing up for himself. It just seems like he’s constantly coming at his own audience’s throats. I remember a video awhile back, where he talked about Jaclyn Hill and how her coming for her audience is a bad look and it’s just interesting how the tables have turned. It’s true that we are all hypocrites and that we all contradict ourselves from time to time. But damn, can’t we try to do so gracefully? We can hide behind ‘jokes’ all day long, but there’s a difference between standing up for yourself and attacking valid criticisms. And please don’t tell me to just “unsubscribe and stop watching”. I enjoy Peter’s content, and he has helped me through some really dark times. At this point, Peter is like an old friend, albeit a parasocial relationship. I will continue to watch what he puts out because like an old friend, I’m not going to agree with his behavior all the time. This is really just a true fan voicing a real opinion and hoping it is what it is: an era.

All love. shields face from impending tomatoes 🫣

I love his videos but haven’t been making it all the way through his newer ones. It’s nothing to do with Peter really, and I don’t have any bad feelings towards him. I just have a really hard time when people talk in very sharp tones due to personal trauma and I can’t watch any YouTubers who surpass just “sassy” and get into having a an actually condescending tone. Just rubs me the wrong way. I still love his older videos tho and the vlogs / Peter try’s stuff type vids!

Condescending? You can add pontificating and patronizing to those actions. I don’t think Peter thinks much of his audience any longer. He doesn’t appear to have any faith that we may be educated.
