I’ve seen a lot of viewers in the mcyt community call themselves stupid, naive and or feel embarrassed or shamed for admiring and idolizing some creators who have unfortunately turned out to be really bad people. Seeing this really hurts my heart because it’s not your fault and it’s not your responsibility.

As a kid who grew up in the mcyt community and used it as my own solace and safe space to get through tough times, I’m sorry that it so frequently gets tainted for you. Please don’t become disenchanted with enjoying mcyt as a safe space because of it. It isn’t your fault for not seeing the signs in someone who ultimately was meant to be a positive role model and set a good example in your life. 

No creator is perfect, and we will all make little mistakes here and there, but I’m so sorry that you get so frequently let down to such drastic levels and serious extremes, but please don’t feel stupid because of their inexcusable behavior . 

This is something that’s wrong with them and not you and ultimately I’m sorry they were in the position to become a potential role model for you in the first place as it’s a privilege they haven’t deserved or respected.

I’m so beyond happy the mcyt community have people like Shelby to be an incredible role model for not only the viewers but her friends as well. I’m so beyond proud of her for speaking out and having the courage to do so as she’s so positively impacted so many peoples lives because of it.💛 #ShubbleSupportSquad 

I rarely speak about things because I overthink my own writing but seeing your tweets and replies really upset me. As a little kid whose life was so positively impacted by the mcyt community growing up it’s so heartbreaking to not see you get to experience the same. I’m sorry that some creators have stolen that magic from you ❤️
