Some examples of some of the messages about Baeclast/Chris in this community - this kind of attitude will only push away GGG and individual streamers from engaging with the community, Chris mentioned yesterday he has people reading reddit for him because he can't read it in the last few months Discussion

Honestly, a lot of those are confrontational, but still respectful. You have every right to not feel represented by the Baeclast crew... the sub won't be better if it's all rainbows and blow job.

This. I dunno what's wrong with people. Most things on the screenshot are just plain opinions.

Excuse me sir it is almost 2022. You're not allowed to have an opinion. It might be offensive to someone.

They're without a doubt abrasive/harsh and targeted opinions. But sometimes you can't just bubble wrap everything.

I'd rather someone say "I think Grimro should be on this podcast over Raiz, otherwise I feel those HCSSF andies won't represent me" than "It feels to me like this podcast's crew, as with a lot of other podcasts, simply don't share the same intrinsic values about gaming at large and don't really share the same vision for PoE that I do."

It's much easier to argue whether or not Ziggy+Raiz+Octavian can, as a team, cover the ground for trading and pushing hard content that Grimro could, than it is to be philosophical about whether or not a streamer has to share your vision for the game to be able to echo your concerns.

I'd rather people being a point of discussion to the table, than just be wishy washy in fear that someone takes offense at their different taste.

No, they (some) are presumptuous over the implied motives of the Baeclast crew and GGG. They offer nothing of value.
