Parents vs Onision

A message from Hank Green:

"Now, here's my 100% honest, frank reaction that you should feel free to share with everyone:

I'm angry at the person who took you off the site without my permission

I had never planned to have you on stage at VidCon. I have no problem with you being there but we have very limited stage time. The page that you were on was "speakers and guests" you are in the guest category, just as you were last year.

I am now (because of this controversy) starting to feel like it might not actually be safe to have you at the conference. This is upsetting and we have prevented people from coming before out of concern for their safety. I am keeping my eye on the situation and hopefully it will calm down, but keep in mind that if it's possible that you will not be safe, we will not let you come.

I don't agree with a lot of what you say or do in your videos. This is also true for many others at VidCon, but I am thankful that I live in a world where you are free to say what you like.

VidCon is a private entity, and if our goals do not line up with your presence, we won't be able to have you. Whether that's because we can't afford the security necessary to keep you safe, or because we don't think your presence would be conducive to the constructive atmosphere we have worked so hard to build."

Finally I get to see what it feels like to really be censored... doesn't feel good at all.

This is quite the learning lesson... I suppose a lot of personal growth is neccessary in order to push on.

Well, today's the first day of the rest of my life. Lets get going...

[InEverySunset]

lol ur so annoying and yet trying to act mature

[BreOMGG]

@hutchmaster99 I love you

[BreOMGG]

@DevianLuna That he points out other things other people are doing. It's like that saying "IF SHANE DAWSON JUMPED OFF A BRIDGE, WOULD YOU DO IT TO?"

@BreOMGG what's your point?

[BreOMGG]

You cannot control other people. You can only control your actions and reactions. Just to take the focus off of yourself, you had to bring up Shane. Wow.

Wow what douchebags

@Leusifer yeah... Which is why I try not to start fights, because that way I can somewhat prove that it's completely unnessisary. Most people are so hostile now, that I try to be different by not being hostile, but that also means I have to pust up with all the hostile people, so I have to be able to defend myself against it.

[Leusifer]

@3dgluv He was joking, about the same thing I was noticing actually. You guys were handling your YouTube argument better than I've almost ever seen. It sucks that you still have to be so ready to defend yourself that you interpreted his joke as hostility. And I don't mean anything personal against you with that, I just mean that for whatever reason YouTube comments are a traditionally hostile zone and therefore it seems to become perpetually easier and easier to inadvertently start fights.
