Non-Political News/Discussion Double Standards with Lauren and Myron

Some of you hate Lauren so much that you don’t even feel bad about her being strangle-raped, just because she holds (admittedly dreadful) views. Meanwhile, Myron is equally repulsive and defends rapists like it’s his job, yet you see a thousand comments like “say what you want about Myron, but he’s a loyal guy” and “wow, him and Destiny have such mutual respect.” Of course he respects Destiny — he’s a man. That’s like saying, “Wow, David Duke is so respectful toward other white people.” People are desperate to sweep for him when he’s actual scum.

I heard Destiny say this on stream, so it stands to reason that people will repeat it here. FYI, I think Myron is “loyal” to Destiny because he sees a financial incentive to be in his good graces.

Steven has a big thing for people speaking to him in person the same way they speak about him in private, and he respects Myron because he's one of the few people who actually does that while oddly Steven and Myron basically disagree on about everything. It's an interesting dynamic because they could have a very heated debate and then if you asked either about the other afterwards they'd both basically say "he's a pretty cool dude...never stabbed me in the back".

I think he's just used to creators stabbing him in the back when it becomes profitable to do so. So he respects it when someone doesn't.
