someone came into my stream asking if I support isr*el, and a new viewer mentioned how it is a rule that cozy streamers do not discuss politics. I wanna take time to say that, while this is a norm, it is NOT correct or a standard of how cozy creators should be.
While I am a cozy creator, my life is politicized. My politics are embedded in all that I do, including my content creation and art. Cozy streamers, do your part to ensure your viewers know who you are and what you believe. Having bad actors in your chat is not worth the view!
This viewer was very kind and definitely meant well, and I appreciate their openness when I said the same above on stream today. I just want to share this because silence is oppression. Not supporting the oppressed openly when you can do so safely is harmful.
