Hecko!
Yesterday night, I decided to try and get some sweet xitter likes by doing the classic move of pissing people off.
For those who do not know, Technoblade was am extremely popular Minecraft youtuber, who used to be part of the DreamSMP.
also most importantly, he's dead.
Died of bone cancer in mid 2022. And every year since then he's friends have gotten together to use his death for charity. The most recent example being yesterday from other large Minecraft youtuber, and drama QUEEN TommyInnit
In response I threw a tweet out into the ether, making fun of them doing this.
I know nothing about these people.

But didn't this dude die like 5 years ago?
How many times are you going to dance around a corpse for money? pic.twitter.com/ncSjemPdw1
And while I did not get many likes or views on X.
I did quite well on REDDIT
https://old.reddit.com/r/MinecraftMemes/comments/1i7syde/umm_what/
3.2k upmarseys and the thread got Ya'lled.
(check thread for funny upset children, a lot got deleted by internet jannies, and Im too lazy to select a few)
Then just do a charity drive, at some point it's ridiculous. You think they are gonna be "raising money for Technoblade" 20 years later too?

It's beating a quite literally dead horse
Surprisingly a lot of people seem to know where I'm coming from but I just "worded it badly" (Worded it DRAMATICALLY more like it)
And a lot of other people have said they are unsubscribing from me due to my horrible PR.
I'm sure this has done irreversible damage to my reputation and I will never recover....

Based on your completely unchanged subscriber gowth I'm guessing you are really feeling the effects of being canceled now.

I unfortunately bitched out and deleted the tweet after it garnered 2.3 million views on X.
Maybe I should of made a follow-up post here for how big it got. But I ended up deleting it because I have evidence that it was negatively effecting the growth of my newest video.
Lots of people clicking on it, leaving angry comment and leaving.

Fair enough. Hopefully it is just a minor blip and doesn't affect u much overall.
