I did not know that Simon from the Yogscast was into Ghost but I'm watching one of their Important Memes Jingle Jam videos and he's got a Ghost shirt on and I am sobbing so hard
My childhood combines with my adult interests what a day
I mean maybe it's just a shirt and he's not into them but let me have my joy

I think a lot of people, first of all - a lot of people don't know what they want when they tell someone something. They don't know what they want. When someone tells me about their troubles they've been having with whatever then I guess they just wanna want to get it off their chest or they're venting or whatever. But they don't know what they want. They just know they want to tell it to someone. And I don't know what to do. I don't know whether they want me want me to solve their problem or just be a shoulder to cry on. I don't know what the answer is. They don't know what they want from me. I don't know what I'm supposed to give them. We're just going through life giving our best!

I just want to lend a perspective to this situation for people who are lucky enough to not have gone through something like this before.
I used to be a huge fan of the Yogscast. The Yogscast went through a shitstorm in 2019 because 3 separate pedophilic content creators were removed from their company.
The Yogscast did not handle these situations well at all.
The most talked about case, Sjin, had allegations against him since at least 2012. Thats seven years of no action against him, but not seven years of no action at all.
Infamously, Lewis Brindley, another content creator and one of the main managers of the company, brought up the allegations during a stream in 2016 and literally said “fuck you” to the people speaking about them, while implying that Sjin sexting teenaged fans was “not serious” and “just being flirty”.
Sjin was never technically publicly kicked from the Yogscast, either. He mysteriously made an announcement he was leaving and for awhile it was unclear whether his leave had anything to do with his allegations at all. On top of this, Yogscast promotional material continued to feature Sjin for another year.
I stupidly went back to the Yogscast fandom in 2020, believing all the problems were fixed. It was my comfort pandemic media for most of the year until I just couldn’t take the toxicity anymore.
That community went completely rancid after Sjin’s departure. He left, but his fans didn’t, and they were given so much ammunition from the Yogscast’s past and continuing failure to properly handle Sjin’s disgusting actions.
It’s easy to victim blame when just a few years ago the manager of the company did it for you. It’s easy to say it’s not a problem and everyone’s overreacting when clearly nobody thought it mattered for 7 years and Sjin is still present in the most recent highlight reel. It’s easy to claim the Yogscast was forced to make Sjin leave due to over-sensitive feminazis and cancel culture when other Yogscast streamers are constantly giggling about how they’re gonna get cancelled and some are making jokes about how they can’t talk about Redacted anymore.
The Qsmp team may be handling this situation with Forever quietly, but they reacted fast and made it perfectly clear where they stand on this issue. They’ve done a very good job so far. I think we’re all allowed to find some relief in that.
