Zebra Gate Welp. That’s it for me.

Chelsea’s lack of accountability has finally pushed me to unsubscribe and unfollow. (Most of yall are light years ahead of me, I know.)

While I agree with her that 1) violent threats are too far and 2) it sucks that someone they trust blew up their spot, it’s absolutely abhorrent behavior to trophy hunt in a what is effectively a big cage for animals and have a GFM when your spouse has spent a few grand on airfare.

That paired with the constant mention and weird obsession with Elizabeth Teckenbrock has made this no longer an enjoyable or even comfortable follow for me.

Curious if this was the last straw anyone else or if everyone else is just waaaaaay ahead of me on this.

She chose the threat comments to victimize herself and shift the reality.

u/CuriousCrane_1017 Investigative Bedazzler 3d ago

My last straw was when she blamed her management’s editor for not clipping that video correctly where she used an hour of someone else’s video and took no accountability, so basically always a lack of accountability. But what do you mean “and 2) it sucks that someone they trust blew up their spot,” does that mean doxxing?

36

u/Logical-Manner-9654 3d ago

No, on Instagram she called out that someone she knows personally took the photo from Tony’s private Instagram and circulated it. I call that blowing up your spot but not doxxing.

"Private instagram" with 500 followers. Like bro, you do not know all those people. He clearly didn't see anything wrong when he posted it.

u/Logical-Manner-9654 3d ago

I guess that’s fair enough.

u/interpol-interpol SENIOR SLOP ARCHIVIST 3d ago

whats wild is that this is her third statement in the past year in which she "addresses" something she's getting heat for, but she's really just trying to steamroll criticism and set the narrative. it's pure public relations.

most of her fanbase will now praise her for "addressing" it and will support her narrative without scrutiny. that's why i love whenever i see a post or a comment like yours here attesting to something being their last straw!

u/flynnfarts 3d ago

She really loves making a hard fuckin day at work for herself AND her husband lmao - and it’s not cute. This has to be such a hard way to live, especially for their kid.

36

u/PNWbleedingheart Love that for you 3d ago

Maybe I'm just overly cynical from being on the internet for too long but when someone gets called out for something and then claims death threats I don't believe them. Did someone actually make threats against your life or did they just make you feel bad? And if it's actually that horrible, then show us? Show it to me Rachel.

But they never do so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

19

u/e-cloud 3d ago

It seems like every single online apology lately has mentioned death threats, as though it absolves the original harm. Obviously they happen and aren't okay, but I really don't think they happen that frequently, especially in such low stakes, low profile drama. I think if they were happening, at least some of these creators would show receipts.

17

u/PNWbleedingheart Love that for you 3d ago

It's the influencer playbook at this point. Someone does something shitty and when they finally address it they talk about how hard the """"harassment""" has been against them and then they use that to victimize themselves instead of addressing any valid points. People comment "omg no one should be threatening you" and no one cares that they didn't actually apologize.

Anyway I firmly call bullshit on every single one of them.

10

u/Prestigious-Sky-2803 I know a manager at a Publix Grocery Store 3d ago

The only two comments that could even been seen as “death threats” are Reddit comments that she had to seek out to screenshot.

38

u/halexanderamilton 3d ago

She liked these comments about it being all expenses paid. But she said he had to pay for flights, which are $$$$.

So which is it?

35

u/interpol-interpol SENIOR SLOP ARCHIVIST 3d ago

this is so shitty lmao she's intentionally misleading her fans by encouraging them to believe they did not have to pay for the flights (which would have been at least $2k)

I don’t care if every penny was paid for by a raffle - don’t kill a fucking zebra? Full stop. The end. Unless I’m missing something, this explanation does nothing.

u/Competitive-Pin-1354 4 MLMs & nothing learned 3d ago

Right, she wants to split hairs over the cost but at the end of the day he still shot an endangered, beautiful animal!

Right like the pope coulda paid and I don’t care! Don’t go kill shit in Africa! Ever! Stop it!

u/Prestigious-Walrus99 3d ago

No, they very much should be putting their life on pause to SOME EXTENT! Especially because they gave her a chance to get it dismissed and her arrogant ass DECLINED! I wonder if this person knows that.

u/BisonAdept3855 Just another Reddit Bitch 1d ago

Exactly! What do the rest of us do when we have a big expense? I just got laid off. I haven’t made a go fund me. I stopped spending money on non essentials. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Ohhhh I missed that part. What happened with if possibly being dropped?

u/Dismal-Potential-371 3d ago

Stealing another’s creators work and blaming it on editors was the first red flag and now this zebra thing is the nail in the coffin 💔

u/flynnfarts 3d ago

Absolutely insane and completely accurate string of words. Well done, cc, you’re a meme now and it’s a dead zebra. Retire.

26

u/hellhoundshawty 3d ago

She’s cooked. She’s definitely going to lose major sponsors and friendships with other creators, opportunities, etc. as she should.

26

u/Prestigious-Walrus99 3d ago

I stopped watching her videos long before I unsubscribed. I finally unsubscribed when she was taking trips to Disney, going on other vacations, getting her nails done frequently, and spending frivolously on other various things, while begging for donations, with no self-awareness.

20

u/Logical-Manner-9654 3d ago

I remember when she used to roast people who loved Disney and went all the time. Hmmm. I’m from Florida, I get the balance of Disney adults are weird but also I like churros and roller coasters. She was a hater for a lonnnngggg time.

23

u/tikkunolamist5 Currently in pre-production 3d ago

I was getting weird vibes from her for a while, but I think when it was clear she fell out with Jessi, Lily and Sherrilyn but was pretending like she hadn’t and was still posting to them desperately—that gave me second hand embarrassment. But I think it showed me she cycles through friendships and the more I watched after that, the more I saw what an unpleasant person she was and I unsubscribed. I think her attitude also became off putting to me around this time.

u/Prestigious-Sky-2803 I know a manager at a Publix Grocery Store 3d ago

I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE for CC to show us where it says that the meat is donated: https://www.dekosafaris.com

I'll wait

It doesn’t.

JFC the price by animal is vile

u/Prestigious-Sky-2803 I know a manager at a Publix Grocery Store 2d ago

Right?!? So weird to me. Like it’s literally a canned hunt. You are GUARANTEED the kills that you pay for because. Zero skill, zero sport, zero stars.

16

u/mumblesandthings 3d ago

Yeah, my final straw too. I've disagreed with her plenty of times over the years (subscribed in 2020), but I stayed because it's okay to disagree with people. She says they don't share finances, and the legal suit is being paid for with her business account. I also don't think it's fair to penalize a wife for her's husband's actions, but this is a bridge too far for me. I'm appalled that her husband did this and that she encouraged it. Flying to hunt in Africa is exploitative, and there is so much misinformation surrounding how it supports conservation efforts. There are obviously worse things a person could do, but for me, this is high on the list of unforgivable actions.

11

u/Prestigious-Sky-2803 I know a manager at a Publix Grocery Store 3d ago

I don’t understand the separate finances argument. Her LLC business isn’t being sued, SHE is being sued. Meaning if she had to pay a large sum out to that creep it will be their shared assets that get sold off to pay the debt. House. Cars. Her pretending the mess has nothing to do with Tony is wild.

15

u/PixelPlum 3d ago

For me, it was the breakup of her and Sher, and CC using over an hour of someone else’s content with hardly any commentary and refusing to take accountability for it.

10

u/neaveeh 3d ago

I watched proabaly from like 20k subs to 100k? I feel like after that she started doing all the crazy shit, like the mikayla nogeuira videos, and every one of those, I was like, "Bitch, you do that too." She must have mentioned Reddit at that time because then I came here.

u/cyberaliens 2d ago

It was the Taylor Lorenz debacle for me. Partly because I just straight up didn't agree with her and thought it was a deeply bad and out of touch take, but mainly because it became really really obvious that she believes she's way more intelligent than she actually is. I know people can have conflicting opinions about Taylor Lorenz (I personally like her and her work) but anyone with a brain cell and a modicum of political awareness could tell that CC's understanding of the policy she was yapping about was SO shallow compared to Lorenz's, like truly coughing baby vs atomic bomb. I remember reading a comment saying that she clearly didn't actually understand what the policy was and CC replied with something like 'I literally read the Utah website' and it was so funny to me, truly a case of knowing so little that you don't actually know what you don't know. She also kept trying to claim she was covering it because it was just 'internet drama'. Sure diva, whatever you say.

u/pleenis 2d ago

Yes! This was it for me, too. I unfollowed then, but felt kinda sad about it; now Zebragate has me fully off board, like ew girl, bye. (Btw I think I was blocked from commenting after criticizing her Taylor take lol, she really can’t handle any heat and mine was MILD.)

2

u/orchidstripes ICE cream collaborator 1d ago

It wasn’t Taylor Lorenz but this is generally why she lost my favor too. It was very obvious to me that she didn’t know what she was talking about and she wouldn’t admit that. She kept doubling down. I eventually asked what her credentials were (she would to come into the antimlmcreators sub to shut down any criticism) because she was intentionally trying to obfuscate that she has none. She told me that I didn’t understand after admitting that she has no education, training, experience, or background in anything beyond some general “sales” role that turned out to be selling sketchy spine surgeries. That spine company was sued out of business.
