## Summary

The video is a passionate response to a viral clip that accuses an anime content creator of endorsing pedophilia due to a fictional 12-year-old character. The creator argues that such accusations are overblown and harmful, and that critics fail to separate fiction from reality.

- **Fiction vs. Reality** [03:36] — The creator points out that the character is fiction and that critics confuse fictional characters with real people.
- **A Historical Parallel** [04:02] — The creator compares the current moral panic to early 2000s claims that video games cause violence, calling it a similar fallacy.
- **Calling for Action, Not Attention** [06:23] — The creator challenges critics to report to authorities if they truly believe crimes are happening, instead of sharing footage.
- **Virtue Signaling and Performative Outrage** [07:07] — The creator accuses critics of engaging in virtue signaling and performative outrage for social approval.

## Transcript

feel about it. Let's talk. >> Doesn't know how to feel about calling people pedophiles. Also, he calls everybody pedos. It's about fiction and he name drops me in the clip and then still engages with the
media that he finds pedophilic. Is this just a self-report? I'm about to piss a potentially, but I'm just going to say it cuz it needs to be said. Starting off a video like this saying pedophiles and then you're talking about fictional
content, you in turn are actually helping out real pedos. You're watering a situation like this, the first thought that comes in their head nowadays is is it about a real situation or is it about a drawing? And when that thought enters
they think of. You've already damaged everything. you have actually increased the actual potential of more victims where people don't believe victims and actual pedophiles will thank you because you're watering down the word so much.
This right here is outright criminal. Honestly, should be criminal. And I hate people like this that have turned literally such a serious accusation into just a buzzword to slander someone. It's just now used as an insult. It's the
same thing what people say now when they call you a Nazi. It's just an insult. It has no meaning anymore. And honestly, I really do feel like there is a lot of really tried to push this to make it to where when people think of this word,
they think of fiction instead of actual real actual criminals first. And that honestly disturbs me to so such a high degree. Like it really pisses me off. And so before I even play this clip that is going viral and a lot of people are
wanting, you know, cyberpunk edge runners censored or banned and all that and the character Roman that many people are saying needs to be removed. The same that Rebecca needed to be removed from Cyberpunk season 1. And then also the
mushikutense the you know refuge the offer to overlord and different stuff like that. Just these individuals do the exact same song and dance. And now of course it is happening to Cyberpunk. So let's play this clip and just see just
how brained this individual is that they're willing to throw serious accusations at people over fiction and actually help out real pedophiles cuz exactly what they're doing. If you hate me for that by by all means leave your
dislike, leave your angry comment down below and leave because honestly I am continuously done this and actually are really helping out criminals. But let's >> Pedophiles are sexualizing a 12-year-old on twitter.com, and I don't know how to
Cyberpunk. In season 2 of Cyberpunk, one of the protagonists is a 12-year-old. being blatantly ignorant to the, you know, more nasty scenes that happen to remember that there's a difference between explicit sexualization and
putting this 12-year-old character in explicitly sexualized positions. But come across a little uncomfortable, even if you didn't mean to look it that way. Reviews is rocking with it throughout the
haven't I? Because it's like when people see my name attached with any show, THEY'RE LIKE, "THAT DAMN CHIBI Reviews again. HE'S ROCKING THAT SHOW. HE'S just ruined it for everyone." That's how they act. They legitimately treat me like the
boogeyman. I am literally the boogeyman. And you know what? I'm happy. As I made a video yesterday, I'm very happy that I can passively gatekeep people like you from anime, from shows, because I don't want people in the anime and manga
community that cannot separate fiction from reality. The fact that you think this character is a real living, breathing human is [ __ ] insane. I honestly think you need to take medication. You're a schizo straight up.
I'm just going to say it because you thinking this is a real person makes me really concerned. It really makes me concerned that how do you even function in reality if you think actual drawings or a video like a video game is real?
Like this argument is the same argument that literally crazies used in the early 2000s of video games cause violence. For instance, if you play GTA, you're going going to kill somebody. That's literally the arguments that people used.
basically you are doing the exact same argument but in the you know in the 2020s over fictional characters and it's just it's insane to me and I've already criminals so I'm not going to get back into that spiral and rant about it but
it's just it's so interesting how when my name is brought up you could always see how disingenuous these people are trying to label me as a serious criminal like an accusation I'm a pedto when it's literally just a fictional content and
basically they still engage with the media that they think is problematic as out. These people that literally think this is really problematic, very icky, very bad, they still engage with it. The stuff that they deem actual criminal,
they engage with it's like if you thought it was criminal, truly thought that, why are you sharing images of it? Why are you still engaging with it? to the FBI? Shouldn't you be calling the police? Like, what what are you doing?
Obviously, they know they they know that it's actually not criminal. They know that it's not serious. They do it for internet brownie points. It is just so interesting though how my name has been associated with like causing people to
ego quite a bit. I'm not going to lie, >> Show. There was an early running bit about a character that was seemingly romantic relationship with him. Though originally it was played up for laughs,
explicit romantic tension between the two of them. back and that is based. IT'S FICTION. WHO CARES? I'm telling you, 15 years ago, nobody gave a [ __ ] Nobody cared. Nobody cared about this type of stuff at all until you co
and screwed it all up. That's what you have done because you need to throw in your virtue signaling. You need to throw in your performative attitude to make yourself look good and all that amongst your peers. But there is a lot of people
that are actual anime fans and manga readers that just don't care. because they're able to separate fiction from reality. It's just it's insane because it's like if you have this big of a problem with stuff like this, don't
engage with anime and manga. Don't because obviously you think it's bad. still engaging? Why are you sharing footage of scenes that you think are In your own logic, you're sharing
In your own logic, you're sharing criminal footage. of people have been sexualizing does leave me to wonder why the creators What an anime does up close foot shots that's widely considered to be a kind of
he was getting his shirt lifted up and he was all sweaty and stuff that does kind of leave a nasty taste in my mouth. Oh, okay. Get gate cut. Don't watch it. You think that it's bad. You think it's criminal. Why are you continuing to
actually know it's nothing serious? You're being performative? Well, you you're being performative. Not going to lie. Nevertheless, though, the show as a chose to depict a 12-year-old in Night City. Not only because of the lawless
of the scenes that this 12-year-old is in does come across a little nasty compared to if he was just the same age as everyone else.
It's always the same people. So, this is the individual that made the video, by the way. And it's just uh Oh boy. Oh boy. Oh boy. It's always the same people. It is. You can always just case a point and all that like who it is. But
I I I'm just I I want to I'll leave it at that. I want to showcase just absolute buffoonery. It's a clown show of how many people legitimately think everything fictional is so icky that it needs to be like censored. And you know,
they still engage with it despite that. It just it's honestly that should concern anyone more. When someone is virtue signaling this hard that they with it. What does that say about them? What does that really say about them?
Like obviously it makes me concerned about them. Like like that's how I feel about it. Anyways, I'll leave it at that. You it. Anyways, I'll leave it at that. You all be safe, stay healthy. She be out.
