Is it worth arguing if a 17 year old youtuber is attention seeking? I think almost every 17 year old is attention seeking to some degree, then add a platform like Youtube and the knowledge that 10's of thousands of people are listening. Seems pretty straightforward although i guess we can argue which things are attention seeking.

Strongly disagree with that

"I'm Milo (he or they pronouns). I'm a non-binary, trans, asexual, aromantic q*eer who doesn't care about your cisgender feelings."


Let's see what this feminist communist otherkin non binary a-sexual youtuber is up to in 5 or 10 years


I don't see how the bolded is an example of "faking", especially since that line of argument has been used for any and all people who deviate outside the "norm" of gender or sexuality. That it's just a phase, or a cry for attention, or...

All of those identities are valid.

those were two different thoughts in the same post

We disagree about this person but the they can be or identify with whatever they wish and should be able to do it without threat or mistreatment

I think it's a buncha bs spouted by a kid looking to cling on to a group and get a bunch of attention on the back of a serious thing and as usual with the internet it worked so whatevs

Lest Milo has histrionic tendencies, I think the "attention" Milo has gotten has been not the kind they were "seeking".

feel free to tell me how this extremely cookie cutter made to go viral video is not entirely about getting massive views and negative attention

Nobody can fully prepare for the wrath of the internet but to say this kid wasn't out looking for it with videos like this is bs

I think having extreme views while being apathetic about the comfort of the majority is just that, and not indicative of attention seeking in of itself.
