    Yeah, it honestly sucks. The r/hololive sub was a pretty alright and nice sub tbh, but this Chinese controversy has made the sub insufferable recently with some of the dumbest geopolitical analysis from weebs yet. At the same time, the vtubers should've never gotten suspended for such a minor thing, at least not for 3 weeks, and the Chinese nationalist obviously overreacted to it. And yeah, there's also Hololive China to take into consideration, they shouldn't be in the crossfire of this, and the people saying to get rid of Hololive China entirely, in turn hurting the Chinese vtubers, are reactionary af.

    Seriously sucks, because a lot of people were enjoying the vtuber memes that came from Bilibili too. Hopefully it doesn't create a longterm divide between the fans.

        You would think, right? Another Hololive vtuber, Aloe, accidentally leaked her personal twitter and got doxxed a few weeks ago and Cover gave her a suspension for 3 weeks. She actually ended up quitting Hololive all together after 3 weeks because she was so stressed about the whole situation. Hololive reddit fans were angry back then too when that happened, but it seems like they're MUCH MORE angrier now. Because this time, it's about China, which gives the reddit weebs an excuse to be Sinophobic and a target which pretty much engulfed the entire subreddit.

        Though, we shouldn't excuse some of the Chinese nationalist fans either, just like r/hololive, they were also toxic in this situation as well. it's just a shitshow all around. Really, just a weird niche weeb conflict in the corner of the internet.
