Step 1) If you ever think you're being criticised on the internet, use all of the -ism and -ist cards at your disposal. They're especially effective at dealing with straight, white men. Step 2) If you yourself are a straight, white man, just claim you identify as something else and repeat Step 1.
That’s what happens when you accumulate a following based around being an “uwu gamer girl”. She’s used to getting the attention and money from basement dwelling nerds
If she did not do an oppsiee on stream, she will do exactly just that. Its astonishing how some people still think something like that would never works on the internet
The sad truth is that even after all of this drama, nothing is gonna happen to her. The fans (even after being called broke) are still gonna be there for her and she still gonna get paid
@2crisp63 she should lose money due to lack of sales. If you called your fanbase broke and incels I would expect them to not throw mo ey at her, its not like she need them anyway anymore.
The consistent "She's getting hate because she's a woman" and "If a man did this nobody would care" type takes are absolutely insane to me cuz I feel like the vast majority of internet creator drama I see is about male creators/influencers, especially recently
Here's a rule of thumb: If someone's BEST argument is reliant on something that is unfalsifiable without a direct brain scan or MRI, like bigotry, chances are they just want a chance to play cry bully.
I really hate how she can hide behind her image. Shes clearly getting angry/annoyed and lashing out and being passive agressive but because of her cutsey uwu image every streamer will defend her against suppossed internet sexism for her just making jokes. Even if those "jokes" are clearly about the critisism shes recieving
All people did was criticising her pricing but then she had the audacity to call people broke because they don’t want to buy an overpriced cookie. Honestly, she already had a solid ground by stating that if they dont like the price then dont buy it but unfortunately she squandered that potential.
I need to make a fallacy bingo card. Make a few, distribute it among your friends, then play a video of someone addressing it and see how far you can get in it before someone gets a bingo.
I counted the cookies and stuff and I found out that every single one of her EXTREMELY small cookies cost 25 us cents per piece. For comparison, from the prices that I found (in my country) oreos, which are quite large, cost 7 us cents per piece. Looking at the size differences, if you were to make the oreo smaller and therefore make it cost less, it would probably be somewhere around 2 cents to 1 cent per piece for the size of the myna cookie, which costed 25 cents per piece.
@mayia4272 predatory practices should be called out, her claiming its an original recipe too should be called too, because it is a blatant rip off that's marked up in price.
Yeah I agree it’s too expensive. Mainly folks are mad though bc she insult a fan calling him broke, especially during thanksgiving when many ppl can’t afford expensive meals. It was tonedeaf
Of all the things I thought would get Pokimaine canceled over, this one is the least that I expected and it's still funny af watching her downfall over mfing cookies 😂😂😂
LOL - agree. She’s done much shittier things than shill overpriced cookies. To be honest, I think she should be cancelled just for that insufferably phony little girl uwu voice she uses. But I guess her simps love it.
Sadly she's not getting cancelled unless she get caught as a child predator or something , and even then it's debatable , her simps will continue to kiss her a$s regardless.
@@I4dtx yup, and i wonder how long such issues remain... At the end, we all are just humans and thus imperfect. Personally, i just wish that people like her simps would finally start to think realistically and care more about more important stuff in their life than their "secret fiance's" cookies xD People being People again, able to complain about everything, what a place to live in...
The people defending her doesnt realize that we dont give a shit about "her" cookies or the pricing of them. What we do care about is how she is behaving....
The people defending her really ignored how she blatantly made fun of her fans and THATS the major reason why people are mad. Sykkuno is nice but should have looked into this before making a comment. I can't support him if he thinks she's a good person
Sykkuno: “I feel bad for her, it’s undeserved (few seconds later) Idk what happened or why (few seconds later) she doesn’t deserve it.” I mean do I really need to elaborate any further? Clearly them just blindly defending their friend because it’s their friend… so why should anyone take their response/opinion seriously at all?
Let’s be real here: the ONLY reason why she can get away with saying that & sell $28 of mid-ass cookies is bc her fans has proven time & time again that they will throw chunks of their hard-earned cash just to be noticed by her. If you really think about it, the cookies are just a token of appreciation. Bc now they actually have something back instead of a 3 second mention on her streams 😂.
People don’t care about her merch, just her rudely calling a chatter broke. Inflation has increased grocery costs, so families can barely afford Thanksgiving. Snacks are a bad choice for streamer “merch” bc consumables are price sensitive, unlike hoodies/ fashion that can be expensive & nobody cares
@@scarletsletter4466 aren't even those insanely priced/considered a luxury to have these days?? I get that they aren't consumables like food as merch but they're still very pricey.

@@Brucifer2Also innocent children would never get harmed and nice kind people wouldn't get cancer and would get rewarded. Plus horrible people wouldn't succeed and the bad guys would get punished way more often.
its great that everyone is so eager to share their takes since people can learn something new and we can avoid shit like this getting "popular" again when everyones on the same page.
Honestly, I'm more annoyed at her claiming it took 2 years to add mushroom powder. Oh and that there were no healthy snacks so she.. took an existing snack to resell. She can be as fake as she wants, sell cookies for whatever.. just don't lie. Charlie didn't say he lovingly raised the cotton and picked it with his team of Botanist to make his shirts. He put it out there for people to buy if they want. If she said she loved these cookies, made them a little healthier and wanted to share them with everyone I don't think the $7 a bag would be more than people grumbling.
IMO theres nothing wrong with making a healthier alternative to something unhealthy, it can be quite useful for those struggling to stick to a diet. The problem comes when companies falsely market their products. Pokimanes cookies may be gluten-free (which has no difference unless you have cilliac disease), and have a negligible amount of vitamins, but its loaded in saturated fat, carbs, and sugar. They could have easily made cookies with less fat, less sugar, or just marketed it as a regular cookie. But pokimanes claim that this cookie is one of the few healthy and tasty snacks you can buy is BS.
My favorite argument was that "being healthy is an investment." If you want to be healthy, you have to buy overpriced cookies, dang it! Don't you want to be healthy???!
I hate it when Pokimaine pulls the sexist card, knowing damn well that a lot of male streamers and influencers get clowned on and called out on the regular! 😒
"If a dude said this it wouldn't be talked about" Untrue, one immediate example is dream, people hate the dude so much they are fine with Gumball calling him an f-slur.
I really don’t understand the argument of “gluten-free stuff is always priced like this” when the exact same product - vitamin D is half the price. It’s like saying all insulin products are expensive as justification for a two times markup.
I agree the first of the drama was overblown, but the people downplaying it, or blaming sexism (as usual) make it look worse imo yes, if a guy did this people would complain, people HAVE complained when things like this have happened, no, its not cause shes a girl
At this point its not because of her being a woman although I am sure thats the reason for what is hopefully only a minority, rather it is a gradual build up of people being tired of her character. Not to mention regardless of how it is she gets into so much drama, she simply does. That makes her look so much worse to people on the outside peering in ignoring the fairness of it all. Not to make a comparison to Dreams current situation but the mention reminded me of how he acts. Both always jump the gun sort to speak and double down then backtrack.
I really dislike when people uses the "I'm getting hated because i'm a woman" and the "Your opinion is invalid because you are an incel" card like it's a 24/7 black Friday sale, it just loses all meaning at some point :L
Initially I thought that oh my God there's a second part of this and then I realized oh yeah we're talking about someone who is a complete trash can of a human and belongs to the streets and ruined a man's life over false allegations and then proceeded to try to actively destroy him even more.
The comparison to worse streamers is so pointless there are worse situations constantly it doesn’t mean you don’t get criticism when you mess up too. You choose to sell your life for milllions of dollars every day you show people a part of you and that seems great but you have to remember when you aren’t hurting for money you are usually hurting for something else. These streamers want to act like they should just got millions for no reason. It’s celebrity and it fades you have to learn how to ride the wave when you have it and move on.
I hate the people that try to excuse Pokimane's bullshit by using the "WeLl ShEs A WoMeN AnD If It WeRe A MaN It WouLd Be DiFfErEnT" , BRO THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GENDER , Its specifically about the over price-ment of her unoriginal cookies and how she called her *own fans* broke.
Damn, Sykkuno really fell.... Doesn't know why she's getting hate but still supports her.... A real friend would tell you to hold yourself accountable not blindly defend you.
theres that apology!! trying to save face doesnt seem to be working now, especially with what she said. honestly, whats to be expected tho? her downfall will come very soon
It wouldn't be such a big deal if she ever took criticism well. Always responds the worst possible way which creates more drama, then makes an obviously disingenuous apology which riles people up even more. I mean you go to her likes and all you see is people defending & excusing her responsibility, she doesn't even try to pretend she's taking accountability.
can i say that in eastern european countries such as bulgaria (where i live), i can buy LITERALLY 5 times the amount of cookies with 28 dollars. i'd ltierally have enough for a week or two.
Id have more reapect if she just owned the fact that she was clapping back at a comment she didnt like. But with the audience that she's nurtured and created, im not surprised. Though XQC acting like he cares is wild after straight up saying how much would wouldn't care if his reaction content was hurting other creators income.
I think the main reason why this drama is being built up is because she is in a lot of drama and so people who want to see her gone for previous things still want that now so any chance they get they will try to end her career. In summary the more drama Pokimain gets in the worse people will react.
It blows my mind people are unironically saying 'imagine getting mad over at cookies over what's happening at Palestine,' as if a) twitter users blowing up the most mundane, inconsequential thing in trending during a time of crisis and worldwide panic _isn't_ completely in the norm, and b) as if you can't just, idk, _care about both._ "Sorry Timmy, but u tweeted out how enraged u r abt Queen Poki's cookies, clearly u can't make ur daily Palestine activism quota td, so now ur a bigot👍👍👍"
whats it with people buying food from popular influencers? shouldnt it be common knowledge to people that big time content creators arent experts in creating quality food products?
16:00 i agree aswell, but the community is fed up with everything as a whole. so this was the thing that broke the camels back, and we dont wanna let it go, because we shouldnt. she'll just go on to continue and this will be memory holed
I have not seen a single person who wants to be healthy buy cookies. If they have a disease that doesnt allow them to eat gluten, such as celiac disease, they also wouldnt try to buy 28 dollar cookies. They'd likely buy gluten free and make their own damn cookies
I just think the fact the lowest price for the cookies on their website is $ 28 is outrageous. Oreos are like 5$, and the argument "Bulk Prices" is null and void, when it's the *lowest price to actually taste them*.
personally the only part that really “offended” me was when she called someone broke boy. Inflation has skyrocketed and it’s incredibly insensitive to people who aren’t millionaires. I’m also disappointed in the people calling out sexism to people who don’t agree with the pricing. A lot of people (male or female) get called out if they’re being unfair. It’s just more millionaires calling broke people sexist for being broke.
My boss is a millionaire. I asked if $7 for a bag of branded cookies seem fair. He laughed at me and now he thinks I’m one of the employees that our company hires with cognitive deficits PS support programs like that for no skill jobs. It makes them feel good and it helps tax payers
I have dyscalculia, a medically diagnosed mental disorder that severely limits my ability to understand numbers and mathematics… And yet, even I can tell 7x4=28.
The differences between the near $30 cookies and the $30 to $50 Hanes shirt is that the shirt will be different and I can actually wear the shirt, repeatedly until it's tattered or I donate it after learning that person did something with their underage audience. But seriously why are people acting like she's the only one it happened several times in the makeup community, it happened with people slapping their names on cheap drop ship items and marking it up 100x. The people weren't mad that they did it, mad at the inferior quality then being called broke or told to manage their expectations from people who sold them on the product in the first place.
13:58 just because the things someone does aren't as bad as someone else, doesn't mean we should just ignore it. The people who does things like OmegaPro mentions, are heavily criticized and canceled for good.
I think this was another case of her mask slipping a little too far. Like the one person mentioned about "Schrodinger's Idiot", it's so easy for her to just spontaneously change the meaning of what she said when she can look at the backlash she received. Funny enough had the clarification of "I'm just kidding" been what was said directly after her "I know math is hard, when you're an idiot. If you're a broke boy just say it" rather that...well nothing but moving right along...I think we'd have a different situation on our hands here.
Just wanna say I appreciate what you did with this video. You reminded me that I don't watch or care about pokemane stuff really. She pops up in my feed because people are spazzing about something she did. Most of the time I would say I agree with what people are saying. Usually it's just that she's a bit hypocritical, most of the time its a bit more harsh. But this video made me realize that its that gross trainwreck sort of cant look away sort of thing that makes me pay attention. Maybe she meant her broke boy cookie thing as a joke, maybe not. I've made a joke or two that didnt hit so im not upset about that. What is hilarious now that you've pointed it out is that people are greasing their keyboards going to war over cookies
i think the main thing for me, is her response. she continually replies with the worst takes, or responds in a way its easy to tell it got under her skin and it's a knee jerk reaction. like sure, her cookies are over priced. there was tons of ways to respond to it. "sure they're $28. but you get 4 bags in it. and products like this tend to be more expensive."
I really don't understand people when they say, "IT'S JUST COOKIES, WHAT IS THIS DRAMA. IF YOU DON'T LIKE'EM DON'T BUY'EM LOL" It's like they're exacerbated by the fact other people are upset and it triggered their fight or flight response.
As a woman, I wish those female streamers would stop dismiss criticism for copying a recipe and multiplying the price while claiming you created the product as "sexism".

Not to make a comparison to Dreams current situation but the mention reminded me of how he acts. Both always jump the gun sort to speak and double down then backtrack.
I really dislike when people uses the "I'm getting hated because i'm a woman" and the "Your opinion is invalid because you are an incel" card like it's a 24/7 black Friday sale, it just loses all meaning at some point :L
Schrodinger's Idiot. Thank you for this new vocabulary. Perfectly describes one of my younger brother's traits.
My favourite part of this has to be the XQC responses.
haven’t used twitter since late 2020 but still love this channel for the petty drama haha ty
Initially I thought that oh my God there's a second part of this and then I realized oh yeah we're talking about someone who is a complete trash can of a human and belongs to the streets and ruined a man's life over false allegations and then proceeded to try to actively destroy him even more.
if the ten dollar cookies are gluten free then you can’t use that as the reason for your 3x price.
why is no one else saying this?
The comparison to worse streamers is so pointless there are worse situations constantly it doesn’t mean you don’t get criticism when you mess up too. You choose to sell your life for milllions of dollars every day you show people a part of you and that seems great but you have to remember when you aren’t hurting for money you are usually hurting for something else. These streamers want to act like they should just got millions for no reason. It’s celebrity and it fades you have to learn how to ride the wave when you have it and move on.
I hate the people that try to excuse Pokimane's bullshit by using the "WeLl ShEs A WoMeN AnD If It WeRe A MaN It WouLd Be DiFfErEnT" , BRO THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GENDER , Its specifically about the over price-ment of her unoriginal cookies and how she called her *own fans* broke.
Damn, Sykkuno really fell.... Doesn't know why she's getting hate but still supports her.... A real friend would tell you to hold yourself accountable not blindly defend you.
That sykkuno clip was from the jidion drama tho
theres that apology!! trying to save face doesnt seem to be working now, especially with what she said. honestly, whats to be expected tho? her downfall will come very soon
That guy in the store went crazy
It wouldn't be such a big deal if she ever took criticism well. Always responds the worst possible way which creates more drama, then makes an obviously disingenuous apology which riles people up even more. I mean you go to her likes and all you see is people defending & excusing her responsibility, she doesn't even try to pretend she's taking accountability.
Don't forget the 2 years bro 2 years 😅
can i say that in eastern european countries such as bulgaria (where i live), i can buy LITERALLY 5 times the amount of cookies with 28 dollars. i'd ltierally have enough for a week or two.
Bowblax eating well this week with all the drama going about
Id have more reapect if she just owned the fact that she was clapping back at a comment she didnt like. But with the audience that she's nurtured and created, im not surprised.
Though XQC acting like he cares is wild after straight up saying how much would wouldn't care if his reaction content was hurting other creators income.
I think the main reason why this drama is being built up is because she is in a lot of drama and so people who want to see her gone for previous things still want that now so any chance they get they will try to end her career. In summary the more drama Pokimain gets in the worse people will react.
It feels like some of the people replying didn’t see the broke boys clip and then had to double down because they already defended her.
this deserves billions of views
Bro they literally shook the bag with mushroom powder and shipped it
Ok but didnt XQC literally just flex his watch during the last drama why on earth does he think he has a leg to stand on here???
Assan is the only person that can talk for an hour and end up saying nothing yet somehow still being wrong 🤦♂️
It blows my mind people are unironically saying 'imagine getting mad over at cookies over what's happening at Palestine,' as if a) twitter users blowing up the most mundane, inconsequential thing in trending during a time of crisis and worldwide panic _isn't_ completely in the norm, and b) as if you can't just, idk, _care about both._
"Sorry Timmy, but u tweeted out how enraged u r abt Queen Poki's cookies, clearly u can't make ur daily Palestine activism quota td, so now ur a bigot👍👍👍"
This situation is just cringe now from every side
whats it with people buying food from popular influencers? shouldnt it be common knowledge to people that big time content creators arent experts in creating quality food products?
Her fans saying she isn't rasict when she said nigga 12 times past her life time in one video 😂😂😂😂
16:00 i agree aswell, but the community is fed up with everything as a whole. so this was the thing that broke the camels back, and we dont wanna let it go, because we shouldnt. she'll just go on to continue and this will be memory holed
Reading the tweets that defend pokiman or bring sex into this made me develop 4 learning disabilities
I would like to thank you bowblax, everyday I'm both entertained and grateful I never downloaded twitter or even uploaded a tweet
I hate when people suddenly act like the middle man saying "it's just ____, it's not a big deal" and missing the bigger picture
Scammers are getting a run for their money.
I have not seen a single person who wants to be healthy buy cookies. If they have a disease that doesnt allow them to eat gluten, such as celiac disease, they also wouldnt try to buy 28 dollar cookies. They'd likely buy gluten free and make their own damn cookies
Thank you Josh, very cool
2:20 Time IS really good point and consern XD she IS so genuine
I just think the fact the lowest price for the cookies on their website is $ 28 is outrageous. Oreos are like 5$, and the argument "Bulk Prices" is null and void, when it's the *lowest price to actually taste them*.
personally the only part that really “offended” me was when she called someone broke boy. Inflation has skyrocketed and it’s incredibly insensitive to people who aren’t millionaires. I’m also disappointed in the people calling out sexism to people who don’t agree with the pricing. A lot of people (male or female) get called out if they’re being unfair. It’s just more millionaires calling broke people sexist for being broke.
My boss is a millionaire. I asked if $7 for a bag of branded cookies seem fair. He laughed at me and now he thinks I’m one of the employees that our company hires with cognitive deficits
PS support programs like that for no skill jobs. It makes them feel good and it helps tax payers
Who needs soap operas and the news, when you have bowblax
She's an Earth Bender, the way she keeps digging her own grave
The bigger the fame, the larger the whirlpool stirs.
The actual biggest problem is the $7 bag argument when you cant actually buy a singular bag, only 4 bags or more
People just cant accept that most of this is valid criticism but they move the goalpost from sexism to xqc lmao
I have dyscalculia, a medically diagnosed mental disorder that severely limits my ability to understand numbers and mathematics…
And yet, even I can tell 7x4=28.
The differences between the near $30 cookies and the $30 to $50 Hanes shirt is that the shirt will be different and I can actually wear the shirt, repeatedly until it's tattered or I donate it after learning that person did something with their underage audience.
But seriously why are people acting like she's the only one it happened several times in the makeup community, it happened with people slapping their names on cheap drop ship items and marking it up 100x.
The people weren't mad that they did it, mad at the inferior quality then being called broke or told to manage their expectations from people who sold them on the product in the first place.
What a fun week for this circus of a life
13:58 just because the things someone does aren't as bad as someone else, doesn't mean we should just ignore it. The people who does things like OmegaPro mentions, are heavily criticized and canceled for good.
I learned what Schrödinger’s Idiot is 😆
Didnt know scams could be labeled as cookies now
I think this was another case of her mask slipping a little too far. Like the one person mentioned about "Schrodinger's Idiot", it's so easy for her to just spontaneously change the meaning of what she said when she can look at the backlash she received. Funny enough had the clarification of "I'm just kidding" been what was said directly after her "I know math is hard, when you're an idiot. If you're a broke boy just say it" rather that...well nothing but moving right along...I think we'd have a different situation on our hands here.
Just wanna say I appreciate what you did with this video. You reminded me that I don't watch or care about pokemane stuff really. She pops up in my feed because people are spazzing about something she did. Most of the time I would say I agree with what people are saying. Usually it's just that she's a bit hypocritical, most of the time its a bit more harsh. But this video made me realize that its that gross trainwreck sort of cant look away sort of thing that makes me pay attention.
Maybe she meant her broke boy cookie thing as a joke, maybe not. I've made a joke or two that didnt hit so im not upset about that. What is hilarious now that you've pointed it out is that people are greasing their keyboards going to war over cookies
i think the main thing for me, is her response. she continually replies with the worst takes, or responds in a way its easy to tell it got under her skin and it's a knee jerk reaction. like sure, her cookies are over priced. there was tons of ways to respond to it. "sure they're $28. but you get 4 bags in it. and products like this tend to be more expensive."
She'll probably get out of this fine like her last 5 controversies 🙄 no accountability
Keem's reaction had me rolling
I really don't understand people when they say,
"IT'S JUST COOKIES, WHAT IS THIS DRAMA. IF YOU DON'T LIKE'EM DON'T BUY'EM LOL"
It's like they're exacerbated by the fact other people are upset and it triggered their fight or flight response.
That's why the people who are upset are so funny though
btw bowblax that tweet about xqc was refrencing his reaction to the bombing where he flex his money and not the react drama as a whole
