Something that really upsets me about what has happened with Trisha Paytas is how H3 fans and Ethan started this hate mob against her after giving a platform to her for so long
I actually kind of despise Ethan and I think that he exploited Trisha a lot during frenemies He created an environment that allowed her to get triggered tremendously and to me it was obvious he only started the podcast for money everything he does is fueled by money and engagement and you could say all the same things about Trisha Paytas
which is true because they honestly are so similar
What makes me so upset about this situation is that Trisha never deleted videos or hid her past prior to this past year and it makes me wonder what pushed her to do so
I hated that frenemies is what caused people to cancel her and not her racist, and ignorant past I think because I watched her so long and was aware of her trolling I never looked at that stuff as real but she’s so complex I literally never know when she is telling the truth or not
I think about when she was drugged out and I was like a teenager watching her videos and not even knowing she was high
But then I think about how when she came out as transgender and everyone cancelled her but in the next few years being gender fluid became really popular and she just honestly didn’t have a term for gender dysphoria I think a lot of her cancellation come from her ignorance and of course at 33 she should be able to convey her thoughts clearly but I do wonder how many things she has done without malicious intent and has been met with a ton of criticism
I think I honestly see myself in Trisha and not in a good way I think about what happened with her and the DID community and how when people said she wasnt being serious she turned to harshly trolling and therefore upsetting and entire community she has like this temper and she fires back so quickly without thinking about who she harms in the process I think about when she outed her boyfriend Sean Vanderwilt after receiving text messages that he was at a gay club
Trisha Paytas has now realized how awful all of her prior behaviors are but she expects people to just up and forget them and instead of people having serious questions about her being genuine she critiques her criticizers as rude and people who dont have a positive outlook on life and it is super distasteful considering she was there not that long ago
I think the best thing she could have done in this situation is just apologize for her past and say I understand the people who dont believe I have good intentions because of my past but I will continue to prove to my audience that I have changed and thoroughly regret my past decisions
It reminds me of her begging ethan to stop talking about her and even though I agree he went too far her responding only escalated the situation heightened the amount of video responses and allowed her to get critiqued more the best response to that situation was to just leave the internet for a small amount of time
Its honestly embarrassing to see her downfall and then see her feeding the hat on tiktok with trolling and talking about how she loves money when she is trying to be this spiritual enlightenment type personality it doesn’t make sense
I try to watch her content sometimes to keep up but its just sad I got a really bad taste in my mouth when she was dipping into different religions without any knowledge of what is and isn’t appropriate and when she started talking about manifesting after being given properties as a teenager and sitting inside of a 2 million dollar house its just distasteful
I cant imagine how these behaviors effect those born into these religions and communities and cultures and it reminds me of when she wore this awful braided wig a few years ago and refused to apologize to the black community and understand how offensive it was
