I always find it weird how vtubers are really harmless and at most you can consider the idea of vtubing as cringe, but for some absolutely weird reason there are people that have such a vitriolic rejection of them that they think stuff like doxxing and death threats are fair game.

The unhinged VTuber hate reminds me of Spider-Man and how he is hated by J. Jonah Jameson for hiding his identity and not acting like a normal person. It makes me wonder if Stan Lee actually knew people like that.
