I find Ian to consistently have the most levelheaded takes, it’s one of the many reasons I think so many trust his judgement.
I personally know with how crazy this investigation’s been from the start, and just seeing how crazy it is as someone doing it publicly now, how important it is to never push anyone to platform someone else. It’s a team effort and one that I truly believe will take all of us.
And thank you for encouraging me to get into this Ian. No matter how crazy it is, I’m glad you did.
That’s not suspicious. Big creators generally do not have time to keep up with other creators work. I spent more time watching creators before becoming one.
So when a new creator comes on the scene it often takes a while for the big creators to even see their content.
Then there’s the issue of trust, the more complex a topic or persons work- the more time and intellectual investment you have to make to genuinely assess if you trust their expertise and perspective. Especially if you’re going to share their work, thereby tying your credibility to this new person.
I say all that as a big supporter of Ana and probably the one who talked her into starting her show in the first place.
I’m just saying to chill, it’s not that deep. Ana knows how to do good work and she knows where she’s going- her work will earn her the recognition it deserves on its own merit. No need to look for shortcuts while she’s on the journey of developing her craft. She doesn’t need them.
And Stew noticed how sharp she is real quick. I’m sure others will too.
