I think that's a fair perspective. I would say though that vtubers have their own incentives that must be acknowledged when considering their comments. Their continued participation in the industry relies upon their compliance with the standards imposed upon them by said industry. They are under NDA's and contracts that place both hard restrictions on what they can and can't say, and also incentivize framing affairs certain ways.
Let me put it another way. You're a lawyer of some sort. You know the difference between a legal truth and a moral truth. You know that some people plead guilty to crimes they never committed because they were advised that the penalties for doing so would be less than those they'd suffer during the course of a prolonged trial to prove their innocence. You know other people who were guilty as sin, but got off because it was too difficult or ambiguous to prove their guilt to the standards required by law, or who escaped justice because some retard plucked the fruit of the poisonous tree.
Similar things happen in vtubing a lot, except the standards of Due Process are decided by an arbitrary group of unelected corporate entities who never allow public trials or disclosure. I severely dislike this status quo, but I also understand why it happens. It's not fun knowledge to have. It doesn't make my life any happier to know that truth is often sacrificed in the name of convenience or career sustainability. It sucks. It's depressing. I wish it wasn't so.
Something I want to clarify as a final note; I am not encouraging people to be less trusting of their oshi. I just don't want them to put so much trust in her that they forget all the other factors at play. In my experience, most of them want to be more open and transparent with their audiences, not less, but simply can't do so due to the environment they operate in. Anyway, that's enough gloom from me for a while. Thanks for giving me so much to work with.
