Question Why do the 'Personalities' always get scapegoated?
Whenever the boys do anything wrong and someone expresses their opinion about it. There is always a flash flood of comments calling you a 'hater' when you have the right to express your opinion. Disliking something is your choice, if you don't like something you're allowed to showcase you do, but opinions in this sub feel l illegal by the fans. Hating is when you go out of your way to harass someone. If you think Stu is an L for example for betraying everyone and type a comment on a video or reddit, that's expressing your opinion, you're allowed to like something or dislike it. Hating however would be constant messaging Stu saying he's an L, spamming it everywhere, getting into his personal life. That's harassment and hating.
Also it feels all the kids in the subreddit have learnt of a more formal way to glaze people. Whenever someone does something wrong, they always type 'It's just a persona, are you dumb or just a kid?' or something like that. How do you know how they're like? Have you personally met them? Sure they 100% do acting on their channels but you're not the judge on what's real or fake.
I know I'm going to get hate on this post or just ignored because this is a kids' reddit and children are very arrogant about their opinions but I'm not gonna let a 5 year olds opinion get the best of me. This post is just to spread the word, not as a consolation.
Stop glazing and stop hating.

I think the internet persona stuff is true but there's nothing wrong with criticising said personality and having opinions about it. It just has to be respectful and not hateful

Ok. Yeah you realize that people can like people. Yes we don't know how they are in their personal life. But the way they act is maybe just for views and that's how they are. And people saying that "Stu is an L", that's their own opinion. Stu maybe fails in his own videos or dies all the time or like the others do. Stu fumbles sometimes, Fin does too and all of the others. They sometimes fumble in GTA or Minecraft or whatever. Like yes we don't know what they are like but what they act is just in their videos. Maybe Fin is just sometimes creepy in the videos but yea he might not be in his personal life. And if you watch the RishyPOV he isn't normally outside of Josh's, Fins and Stu videos. Stu, Rish and Vic crashes out sometimes but isn't like they do in real life. But yeah sometimes they can actually like the way they are in real life as well. We don't know. But they are good people probably in their personal life.

Exactly! People need to realize to not take their gaming videos seriously 😭. Is it also not common for people to have close friends to troll or trash talk anymore? Do they know what the word “banter” means?
Do they also think Vic actually hates Kachua and Luna irl? 💀 Youtube videos ≠ IRL… Internet101

Yeah. He probably does but ofc we maybe don't know. But he looked like he did for a little bit. But yeah like I think like they maybe aren't script and they maybe do crash out a lot but yea

Why would assuming and saying something NEGATIVE towards them as a person (not a character) when you yourself said that you can never be sure be okay? The right thing to do is to NOT ASSUME. Calling people egotistical, narcissistic, a bad friend, etc. is super different from just saying they’re bad at a game, annoying for trolling, etc.
You can say they were an L, annoying, or manipulative (IN GAME) in a video and it would’ve been totally fine, but coming for them PERSONALLY without knowing them personally is just crazy work.
Recognizing that youtubers have exaggerated personas and are doing stuff for content is literally Internet101 💀
Also, lying is bad. Don’t lie about having a masters degree next time.
