And honestly I’m super on board with it – they have a level of
awareness and understanding, not only of their audience, but of the wider social and historical context in which they present their ideas, that I don’t think I’ve ever seen
in any other content creators, and they are hyper-conscious of the impact they
have on people and the responsibility they have
to make that impact as positive as possible
They also show how goddamn easy it is to be diverse and
inclusive and respectful if you just do your research and ask for input from
the relevant folks
And yeah they’re not infallible and every so often maybe they don’t
quite hit the mark for some people but it’s their willingness to apologise and learn and, most
importantly, try again next time that makes me so full of joy and respect for
these dudes
@p-assthroughfire what i was saying in that long darned reply i sent u sorry xD
this is especially nice because this isnt even like apologizing for overt transphobia this is like something i probably wouldnt have even recognized personally in context as being transphobic? and hes apologizing anyway
i guess the point im trying to make is that justin is a good dude and also my standards for Popular Youtube Men are very, very low
the tweet he sent out after this was really nice too, he’s really a good dude and it’s really refreshing as a trans person to see someone you admire being humble and recognizing their mistakes
