@@Bambi_Sapphic don't like the fact that there's something human behind the monster? would you have rather kept your fragile perception of something easy to hate? sure hating is easy. but it feels much better to understand, and in a sense pity is far more harsh than hate, hate require some semblance of caring to do pity does not.
@@Bambi_Sapphic i guess what im trying to say is that its kinda like that Dahmer biopic on Netflix, we know this person is trash but yet we fixate ourselves to everything they've done, by some extent by hating her youre giving Sappho what she wants
@@Bambi_Sapphic not really all im trying to say is shes not worth my time or effort or worth any real value im not trying to excuse her or make excuses for her or anyone hell before i subbed to this channel i didn't even KNOW she existed I can say kero the wolf is certifiably worse by a million miles, when youve been on the internet as long as anyone you tend to not be fazed by the creeps and garbage of humanity, but more or less wanting to know why they are the way they are, i curse my curiosity sometimes.
So she was groomed repeatedly online on top of being abused by her father, and she is so deep in denial that she's continuing the cycle of abuse. She doesn't want to believe that she didn't have as much control over the situations in her childhood as she was lead to believe. As sad as that is, that doesn't erase or excuse the harm she's done. I really hope she's serious about getting real help this time.
If someone goes through horrific abuse and turns out a broke person it doesn't mean they have any justification for abusing others. She's a prime example for the self perpetuating cycle of abuse. Should they be traumatized enough her victims and the victimizers she helps will continue the cycle.
I was literally s.a as a child and yet I will never justify or understand why or how people think it's ok. It's not because she "wasn't traumatized" that it's ok for her to do it to others. It's so sad to see people like that who thinks their past somehow justifies their actions.
I can't say I feel bad for her after the shit she pulled. I'm not perfect either but I'm not grooming kids, advocating for animal abuse, or manipulating my friends to try to protect me.
@@Bambi_Sapphic Agreed, Not to mention, When she said its okay to be in a relationship WITH A MINOR and tried to kinda justify it will age range and/or the fact it may not be sexual makes my blood boil, like it doesn't matter if its not sexual its still being a p3do being in a relationship with a minor in general. I completely agree she doesn't deserve any more sympathy and does deserve to be locked up. She lies abt all the shit that basically happens and literally hasn't gotten help but thinks we wont turn a blind eye to her saying she's gonna get help for like the 100th time.
no matter what she went through, she deserves no sympathy. hurting children and others isn’t excusable from trauma. a lot of ppl have bad childhoods but not all of them turn out this way.
It's no excuse, but is is the reason. That said, she's still responsible for her own actions and should just get off the internet and seek help... or die.
22:26 "there's some MAPS" maps stands for "minor attracted person" I am a queer person and they are NOT a part of out community. It my eyes (I am a minor) it's 100% pedophilic behavior. It's not a sexuality. Its an "excuse" to be a pedo. She's was obviously groomed and abused as a minor and she is blinded by a false sense that she was in control. And she's continuing the cycle of abuse.
@@Bambi_Sapphic yeah. And as a memeber of the LGBT community the fact that they have tried to make themselves part of our community (making a flag and such) it feels like a slap in the face and a way of mocking us and making their views have a sense of "normalcy" it's really disgusting.
@@Bambi_Sapphic Last I checked the entire "MAP" term was a /pol/ psy-op so it's pretty easy to assume anyone who uses the term in earnest might be affiliated with that board.
There was a time when we were just the LGB, and queer was a slur. Allyship is a politically motivated statement, period. YOUR community and THE community are two different things. What you're calling the "community" is actually a political block; an identity-shaped wedge made to force you into a box, where if you resist the will of the vague social order, you put your own social acceptability at risk. Think about it this way: the year is 2030 - midterm elections. Your state is electing a governor this election. The two front-running candidates are a SocDem and a MAGA. During a debate, the issue is brought up; SocDem says "stop vilifying MAPs", MAGA says "stop touching children." Who would you vote for? Furthermore and more broadly, would you campaign in the community for a candidate they ideologically oppose if you truly believe they hold harmful views towards prurient adult-minor interactions? This is how MAP acceptance will likely be foisted upon us. Not by us or for us, but by the people who use us for their benefit.
@@ArbitraryOutcome Queer literally means sexual or gender identity that does not correspond with established ideas of sexual or gender identity. By definition that's queer. Try again
@@RansomwaveTwo How else do you think people find her platforms and van them without people specifically looking for her? I think this helps send hate more than anything to get the specific things shown taken down
Watching this after Ponder Sprocket's video kind of made me realize this loop she puts people where we hope she can recover yet goes back in with a "fuck the haters" attitude. I understand she won't leave the internet and healing isn't easy but this time I'm actually hoping she does this time. If she continues this, I don't think we should give her attention.
@@curious2882 Something tells me people have already been trying to do that in the first place yet I also fear we might end up with another EDP445 situation where law enforcement might not be able to do anything based on how others may have handled the situation.
@@ArbitraryOutcome That's the most likely circumstance - chances are the only way you'll catch her is by getting a team to comb through her PC and bug her house, which is an absolute shit tonne of resources. Socially, what Brandon has done is damning, but legally none of this is really binding without concrete evidence. Of course, her conversations here will solidify any sort of argument against her in a court of law if they can arrest her.
@@joielain7839 personally, I don't think she should've got swatted. But if she had committed the crime of bestiality or child sexual abuse then I rather wanted her arrested and thrown in jail.
I'm a close friend to a person she very recently doxxed, and made life a living hell. Sappho is someone who knows how to manipulate you, knows how to extract sympathy, and knows how to ruin your life if you upset her. I want to give her some sympathy for the supposed abuse she was put through, but in the same way, I'm baffled that she made my friend's life a living hell that she still dealing with to this day. She's been attacked, she's been stalked, accused of the very things that Sappho is called out for, and through it all, Sappho told her that it would never stop, that she deserved it, and tried to convince her that she was just as depraved as Sappho was. Sappho constantly called her a friend, while constantly punishing her for standing up to her. There are very few people who I label as pure evil, but Sappho is one of them. Maybe I'm somewhat biased in this assertion, but when you have friends calling you, saying how goons just attempted to sexually assault her, and left literal dog hearts at their place of work... I cannot mince words. Sappho is pure evil.
bro what. HOLY FUCK that makes me realize that there is people who believe and support sapho. I bet they are all furry zoophile bastards, please protect your friend and wound any of those kinds of people they deal with. and by wound, I mean hospitalize, if they are stalking her, and assaulting her, you can fight back, AND DO SO
@@SmicoMcim assuming some discord scum either got hired or chose to go after her. this is exactly why i avoid discord, reddit. degenerates who have experienced no love try shit like that. stay safe everyone
Although I hear everything what Sappho has said in the interview and final message. Actions do speak louder than words. She has dug a huge hole for herself due to her lying numerous times. So it's not unreasonable to take her message with a grain of salt. I do hold out a small hope for her and her recovery if she is truly genuine. But she really set herself on a long, Rocky road to recovery.
Her entire fucking speech she uses hypnotic language to fuck with the audience. She does this with everyone. Don't give her the time of day. She truly deserves nothing.
@@Bambi_Sapphic The last two times she backpeddled, not actually denouncing anything but just watering down what her ideas/what she was doing as if to make what was happening "better". Like said, I don't fully believe her because she has lied so much.
@@Bambi_Sapphic He has given a platform to victims as well. He's specifically covered victims in a previous video, and I guarantee that this won't be the last we hear of this psycho. This video was about an interview with her.
@@16-BitGuy People like to be angry. And in situation like this? Where its clear-cut that one of the people is in the wrong? They find it unacceptable that they would be given an interview, that wasn't just means to humiliate them further.
@@arr8762 im fairly new to this sappho saga but what ive seen and heard there is no redeeming her. One, two hell even 5 lies would be ok but when you start lying about people dying, suicide baiting and blaming every force other than yourself, you are a lost cause in my eyes. You say you are going to get help and dont see yourself as a MAP and zoophile but the second people start believing she makes 180 and starts the same shit all over again. Im ok givin people chances to explain themselfs but come on, when they have explained themselfs over and over again but nothing has changed then why should people give them the benefit of the doubt that maybe this time is different? This sappho thing isnt a thing that happened like a week ago but has been an ongoing thing for a quite some time now. TLDR: yes people find it unacceptable that shes given interviews when everything is same BS and nothing has changed.
@@thedissent729 also lets not act like this is a normal human when shes in to animals who cannot consent and grooms kids so please stop acting like shes a saint.0
Dude she played you like a fiddle. Discredited all of her victims and had you provide links to sources to hide illegal media. Shell be back, if these moments of lucidity are genuine or fake we all know she will be back spouting disgusting filth
He was simply asking questions and not being combative. He's fully aware of how messed up she is. He's just relaying her words. That's what an interview is.
I don't know what else to say, but this whole video feels manipulative, sugar coated to garner sympathy. Her wording and tone of voice is unsettling, it's been used to disarm and harm her victims. Due to her actions, lying, etc, as much as some of us want to see her seek help, it's more than likely not going to happen, as she will either relapse or is just putting on an act. You've given a platform and voice to an abuser not to mention putting what is most likely more dead air behind a paywall as Patreon bait. It's clear judging from a lot of comments I'm not the only one bothered by this, you didn't give the victims a voice, not to mention this video will most likely be triggering to a lot of victims of abuse who view this. Even with all the context of why she became the way she is now does not justify her actions.
@•🜍• Tallow & Marrow •🜍• I didn't see the comment with the link since I'm late but damn, looks like he put it in the video description now. Watching this whole video was a waste of time. A lot of people already know about Sappho and her sob stories, etc. Disappointing since I enjoy Brandons content but this video is just not it.
@@thedissent729 I can already tell you're just an apologist or weirdo trying to cover for Sappho seeing as you're an alt. You know damn well this video is dangerous if exposed to the wrong people. You aren't worth taking seriously.
@@16-BitGuy Wouldn’t be surprising if she was though. All I know is that she doesn’t deserve sympathy, doesn’t matter what she’s gone through, it’s no excuse for what she’s done over the many years
@@16-BitGuy The people who say this unironically, are the people who are literally the most allergic to facts/base their entire worldview on emotional reasoning, lmao
As a longtime viewer who's been here from the start I gotta say, I'm finding this content more "sensational" and questionable with every video. It's very kind of you to not grill Sappho but it's more than a little tone deaf to all the manipulation she's done in the past. You can never be kind to the wrong person, but you can do it in a way that comes off weird.
@@Bambi_Sapphic You might wanna back it up there buttercup unless you've got sources for her being paid. Ignoring her past crimes like the stuff he's already covered over an entire video? Straight up telling her that the reason she released f*ck the feds was to protect groomers? How the hell do you take this as anything other than what it is? He's being as impartial as he can because that's journalism. I guess because channel 7 drank beer from a shoe he must be a trump supporter too, eh? Some of you are insane.
i think the most important thing for him is that hes not just yelling at her or his viewers saying "oh this girl is a pedophile" but is instead being very professional and mature about it, displaying all the facts of the situations, being informative, while still being clearly against her actions
seeing all of his work i think we could all see that brandon isnt trying to be aggressive at any given moment, he is being mature about everything that he touches upon, acknowledging every bad thing calmly because he knows that we, as a viewer, more than capable of understanding what is considered bad and good, that we have our own heads on shoulders to think about everything that he presents in his videos. like the other commentator said, we can clearly see that he is against her actions, him wanting sappho get better isnt about forgetting her actions but about finally letting this rabbit hole to close, letting people that got harmed heal and just letting everyone involved to reast and go on about their lifes knowing that that person wont try to hurt others again.
It's hard to believe that her moments of clarity are genuine when she falls back into advocating for some of the most cruel and vile behaviors a human can participate in. If someone truly knew and believed that they were doing something so terrible, I don't know how they could do it all over again.
Yeah, because while it’s called a “moment of clarity”, it doesn’t literally mean it was just for a moment they could see they were doing bad shit. She had to actively deny and lie to herself to get out of that “moment” multiple times if that even happened. I’m going to finish the video just for the sake of saying that I did, but giving this person yet another platform to speak on is a terrible idea from the start
@@nexii_vr as someone who has experience similar experiences to saphos childhood (most likely worse) her behavior is unacceptable and deserves no justification.
I really love your content Brandon! I have been watching since the beginning and the quality is great. This video feels like a unwelcome surprise, it still has your amazing quality in editing and story. But it FEELS like its trying to make me think a certain way, you are extremely kind to this person who has groomed, lied about a kid taking their life, threatened and guilt tripped that they would take their own life, abused animals, spread their beliefs about animal abuse and so so much more. I get that its just an interview but listening to it and especially the parts where she speaks feel like something that would be disgusting to her victims to hear. It just feels like you are taking too long to state your beliefs since the vibe of the video makes it feel like you are on her side. If i hadnt seen your channel before this video i would probably spend alot of it being scared. Also keep in mind that she has serious problems with lying, i really dont believe that she will try to be better, she has said it before several times and then caught dating some child.
the purpose of the video is so you can see the interview and form your own opinions based on the facts, perspectives, and comments of both sides of the story if you don't include both perspectives in a professional, unbiased manner, it's still a one-sided story, whether you're on the morally right or wrong side the video isn't meant to only be viewed on its own, it's an extension of the previous coverage to provide both sides of the story
As said, her final message should be taken with a grain of salt. Brandon established that in the video. He did not fall for anything, but stayed sceptical the entire time.
how did he fall for it?? all he did was interview her and posted it. He didn’t say “guys she’s a changed person 100%, her past justifies her actions.” like what?
People really hating on this but it’s just journalism, he’s not taking a position because it’s obvious what position should be taken. He’s just giving us all of the information man
I love the work you do to create these documentaries but I cannot watch this video knowing the accusations and actual proven allegations against Sappho. Her voice alone makes me feel an anger deep inside my stomach that people like her who lie repeatedly and don't actually try to change themselves to be better are still walking the streets of this world. People like her/him/them (I don't claim to know Sappho's pronouns, nor do I personally care) should be made, potentially even forced into treatment to make sure they don't go out and harm themselves or others.
He doesn't even give any of the massive mountains of evidence that she's a monster to make this video a balanced documentary. This seems like some sort of reputation piece more than anything. Paints her in a good light as if she's a victim. Maybe she was a victim a couple decades ago, but not now. Hopefully Brandon here doesn't support child rape like the furry he's trying to boost the reputation of.
The moment I heard the voice, I immediately recognized her and knew exactly where this was headed. I can't believe you actually got the chance to even interview her. EDIT: So I just finished the video and wow. That went in the complete opposite way. You did not even press her as often on what she has done or what the purpose of the website is. Why did you adding the "shocking" window of getting swatted even though you know the person your talking to has committed horrible crimes. "No matter how bad the crime is, you can truly never get rid of them off the internet" Really? That's your main takeaway that just because a website exists we can never get rid of people? What your saying in that is "Bad people exist, so we shouldn't try to get rid of them since they'll just stay on the website anyway. Oh well." I thought the whole point of the video was to unmask and show how Sappho hasn't changed and how people like her will still stay on a platform that even if they never get rid of her, yet you don't get to that point 30 minutes into the video and just let her say whatever she wants without pressuring that her way of thinking is wrong. You didn't interview her, you didn't question her, you just gave her a microphone and a timer. Do better man, you've pressured people in interviews for less.
@@thedissent729 that wasn't the point of the comment, the OP wanted to see Sappho get pressed on the issues but the interviewer doesn't. You're building up a strawman, making the OP seem like they wanted the interviewer to say those things, but you've completely missed the point.
I'm going to be honest I have no room in my heart for these kind of animals. I believe that some people can be saved by psychological treatment but others deserve treatment worse than incarceration. Some actions and beliefs are immoral without question.
What a disgusting human being. She won't be gone long again and her "moment of clarity" is just a way to make her look better in the short term. Good video again tho!
She needs to be indefinitely institutionalized. It's sad to say, but some people reach a point where they're beyond help. When someone reaches that point, we have to wash our hands and shift focus to helping those who still have a chance. She's beyond help, so we need to place her away from others and allow the victims to truly heal.
Dang, I had to go back and watch Chapter 5 of The Dark Side of VR again to feel the full weight of this one. The person who talked about how calculated and careful Sappho is is so important to keep in the back of your pocket when listening to her in this video. And of course the perspective from Sappho's maybe most well-known victim. I used to intern for a practice that had patients who were some of the most cruel predators you can imagine and/or who had various paraphilias, and it takes so much to bear that in mind while also holding the weight of their personhood and resisting the urge to disregard it while *also* not downplaying the personhood of the victims of these patients who may not be receiving the support that they need like their victimizers are. From that background, I appreciate how challenging being part of this discussion, editing this video and anticipating the aftermath would have been.
Holy crap I decided to leave medical after working in urology and all I had to deal with was older older dudes not liking the idea that they were about to be catheterized by a girl with tattoos. You must have stories. Also the doctors sucked and treated people like a meat locker.
@TinkerCat You must have some sick tats to have those dudes so intimidated!--I wish I could be shocked about the doctors, but, ugh. There's definitely a lot of characters I remember! Sometimes I want to spill the deets to someone just so they have to live with knowing the same Weird Shit as me, but I feel like even if I did that I wouldn't do the context justice. I swear I'm gonna be thinking of this one odd bird in particular (he was harmless, just weird as shit and full of drama) on my death bed. 😂
@@vampirebottom I did find a really good artist he’s been doing a lot of work lately. But honestly the audacity of these old men thinking I should care lol
you have shown yourself to be relitvly unbiased with this and that has been exceedingly rare with most drama these days, i appreciate that greatly. Keep that up boss
So she had a moment of clarity for one day and then changed her mind the next because of people on the internet harassing her? Does that mean she relapsed as a "fuck you" to those people? In the end, the only one she's hurting is herself. The reason for the harassment is because she's into some fucked up shit and openly expressing it. People aren't gonna let that slide especially because it's about children and animals.
There is a level of empathy towards her for what she's been through. She sought love from older people due to her abuse by family in her past. It's text book. This empathy does not, in fact, excuse or endorse what she's saying. She's perpetuating abuse. She needs to be stopped.
this... wasnt a good video, man. you are letting her use you. shes done this exact crybaby shit before, and so many abusers do that. she told you what you wanted to hear. i dont entirely blame you, but you shouldnt have done this.
i don't care that she was abused, you cannot make me have sympathy or pity for her. i was sexually abused too but i'm not out here ruining other people's lives because of it.
This was pretty weird to watch; my older brother used to be friends, according to him, to Sappho. It was weird to see a video about this person since all I’ve ever known was the name. My brother used to be fine with Sappho but when she started mentioning the weird stuff, that is when he realized how messed up she was; it’s interesting yet disgusting to learn these things since I never personally met her, something I’m happy about.
23:47 As a victim myself I strongly disagree with pedophilia it is something that those who suffer from it should get help right away. It's pretty obvious since Sappho lacked a parental figure in their life they went out to seek older people online, and she is repeating the actions of those adults. (which is a big no no) Did she deserve to get swatted? I'd say no because it was a false report and they wasted the police officers time. To those who are still struggling with the abuse they have experienced please search this up!! :0 it may resonate with you as it did to me! hopefully to lift up the weight you've been carrying. POCD Pedophilic obsessive-compulsive disorder don't be afraid to ask for help! keep moving forward! unfortunately being a victim to these things people have a chance of developing these actions.
Just because she was abused, it doesn't make it right for her to abuse others. And I honestly believe that children under 18 shouldn't have any social media of any kind because shit like this.
I'm sorry I couldn't really make it to the end of the video due to anger, but I'm not really sure what all this questioning as to the intention of the website is for. Sappho said in this interview that they are a MAP, and were hoping that the website would help those in their community. That seems like a really sugar-coated way of saying that they're a pedo hoping to help other pedos to cover their tracks. I don't understand this whole ordeal of giving someone who has publicly stated their wishes to abuse and assault both children and animals a platform. No matter the circumstances of their past one must know not to harm others. But the scariest thing about all of it is that Sappho seems to genuinely not understand why what they're doing is harmful, which in turn makes them highly dangerous. They claim that their relationships with the adults they had in their childhood were "healthy" and "loving". I don't think it takes a scientist to understand that this means that fundamentally they believe that adults and children can carry out romantic relationships that are healthy. I mean for fucks sake they can't even see the abuse and manipulation they went through as a child. I don't think I need to explain why fucked this is? What was the point of this video? I genuinely don't understand. This shouldn't make anyone sympathize with them, they're saying inadvertently that they will never change, for fucks sake they don't even believe what they did was wrong. How is someone supposed to be apologetic if they don't even understand what they're apologizing for? I don't know all the lore there is to know about Sappho, and frankly, I don't care to know. I don't care how such a person gets contained, I just hope that they are prevented from getting in contact with children, and animals, and from further encouraging maps to continue to be disgusting pedophiles. I empathize with a lot of people, but I fucking refuse to be preached to empathize with a pedo and an animal fucker.
Her "final message" .. is another grift. I am sorry sir, but I believe the terms is .. Played.. you got played by her. I think the tenor and tone of your interview would have been better served with interviewing at least ONE of their victims. and the damage she has done to the furry community that has fought for 3 decades to separate the fandom from bestiality, Zoophilia and pedophilia. If you ever follow up on this. Please contact me. and we will talk about things you obviously don't know or were aware of prior to this interview
It's very deep and inspirational. I am confused though because I fell from a 3 story building while following those instructions and now I have brain damage.
This feels tone deaf to a point and it sounds more supporting Sappho because Sappho is known to lie and to lie about important information. Although it is possible for her to be abused in a household like that, but because of her past of lying a lot I don't believe her. But of course if she is right then I will admit that I am wrong. As for the website, we all know who it's for. I also believe that you messed up in giving up your questions to her because she was allotted time to come up with answers that benefited her the most while not showing your questions you could of seen if she would had made contradicting statements and slowly unravel a bit more. I also wish you had also interview the victims of Sappho or people that were close to her so you could get their side so there's more of a balance, and again to see if there is and contradicting points to her's. To end this small paragraph I hope she is getting the help she needs and goes through with it and I sincerely hope there will be no more victims of Sapphho.
With all due respect, this video is extremely disrespectful towards the victims of the situation. I get that different perspectives are important but you basically gave her a platform to speak on. You did not question her at all or even "interviewed" her. Predators and abusers do not deserve a platform nor a place to tell "their side of the story", they need to seek professional help. Being featured in a video is not helping her at all. This is really disappointing Brandon.
so your agianist freedom of speech? are you fine with blindly following the victim not understanding the full story? the predator/abusers do deserve a platform right or wrong, if they are liars or truth tellers because who knows sometimes they might be framed wrongly and we need to know how they think and what they have been through to fully stop them... and prevent more of them from becomng as no one is born a predator and they are made by their surroundings and understanding there side allows us to stop them from happening before it even begins as they are not the tonly problem as the abusers and wrong people in there life also caused them to be like this, now not saying she is right or this or that, she realistically needs to go to prison and get done for her crimes if she did indeed do those things as prison is meant to be a rehabilitation centre at its foremost so she can get treated for the things she has done and let go off the past that caused her to be like this.
@@jaydenseaton6698 I never said that I was against freedom of speech, I said that I was against giving platforms to people that have been PROVEN to be criminals (ie. zoophile, pedophiles). There is definite proof that she has groomed kids and has put animals at risk. This comment is very nitpicky and does not apply to the situation at all. I don't get the point of you even bringing this up.
The way he gave Sappho a platform to make herself into the victim is awful. "Yeah I sexually assault dogs and groom kids b-but I got swatted and people on the internet hurt my fweelings🥺" isn't good enough and the fact that she uses it as an excuse for her behavior is appalling. To give Sappho a platform to portray herself as the victim or not as bad is horrible. And to barely even talk about her countless victims is even worse. This was barely an interview, it was just "feel bad for an animal rapist and child groomer for 40 minutes" and that's unbelievably upsetting. To let her talk isn't bad, but to let her give a sob story to make everyone feel bad and do damage control is not okay.
bro chill the fuck out, every side can be heard even if you don't like it. Nobody fucking likes her. You being disappointed in him just giving another perspective is useless.
@Patience Carey I can give criticism on how he interviewed her, especially because he gave her the opportunity to make herself into the uwu victim as if she hasn't literally taken advantage of vulnerable animals and children. I said that it isn't wrong to let her talk and tell her story, but to let her act like she's innocent and make it so that she's able to do damage control is not okay.
something that pisses me off almost as much as the actions shes committed is the blatant manipulation she weaves into the way she talks while she tries to mask it with her soft tone. especially the 33:10 part of the video, I couldn't get through that audio recording bc it just made me so unnaturally angry. I knew someone back in early highschool who talked the same way and holy fuck I cant stand it.
i understand you had good intentions behind this video but why are you giving a child predator a platform like this without at least giving victims a chance to speak about their side of the story too?
It's up to the person with trauma to cease the abusive cycles that were inflicted on them. As someone with PTSD who knows not to hurt others, I get very annoyed when people like this try to hide behind what they went through.
Actions speak louder then words… If Sappho were to get help, the 5.3 Million people in that exact fandom need validation. People lie daily. People want sympathy. People want attention. Lying does it best. And it’s sickening. I hate to burst the bubble… Even with me having autism, I can pick up *so many* ques and it’s concerning.
This is really awful. You lost credibility when you tried to conflate an internet groomer with a cult leader with the intent to sensationalize your content and you’re losing credibility giving this predator a platform. One is worse than the other
Everyone should have a right to privacy. However, everyone also has the duty to be a decent human. People like her need help learning what being a decent human means since they can’t do it themselves, and if their privacy suffers because of that then so be it. They have nobody to blame but themselves.
Nah, everything she says about becoming a better person is bullshit. She won't change. She will never change. She doesn't want to change. She is lying to try to get out of trouble yet again. I doubt she will ever change, taking her past with similar lies into account. She will need to really prove that she has changed, and it will have to be a long process before she has proven herself.
Hey man I love your video, but this one isn’t good. Sappos has done a lot of bad thing and as her history has shown she doesn’t seem to want to be redeemed. Actions speak louder than words after all. I know your trying to do a good thing, and I respect that your doing what you think is right. I’ve been their but be careful with things like this. Some people are wolves in sheep’s clothings. Sappos is one of those people. Be careful and what ever happens don’t double down and keep a level head.
Listening to this while doing some work. I have no idea who this person is, what they did, why are they notorious. The more I hear this interview and the more I heard her talk, I already had an uneasy feeling. Felt like she was bullshitting out the gate. The responses felt rehearsed on her part. Reading these comments just confirmed my intuition. Her past doesn’t justify any of her actions. Geez I never felt someone try to manipulate their shitty narrative so hard. Nearly gave me a migraine and made me sick to my stomach.
I assure you behind that calm voice a maelstrom of emotional insanity you cannot bend your mind around exists. We see what she shows us online and not the nihilistic cogs that churn beneath
bro i love this channel sm, i get so excited when i see an upload My friend met sapho in vrc, he recognized her, soon everyone else did, then she was harassed out the lobby
As someone who has been seeking the true identity of sappho with a community of 75 odd people this is insane. we have taken down Felicipaws/Kalikat, SykaraVR, Mommy Crystal, FireNightFurry_ (all right hand men of sappho) and we have made large process on getting sappho herself. obviously we were beaten to it. i dont know what to do know to be honest if this confession of guilt and a promise to do better is true it doesnt really matter. so were going to keep up i guess becuase she hasnt paid for anything yet.

Do you really think a serial manipulator who constantly tries to get sympathy was actually "swatted" mid-interview? I have my doubts. This was interesting, for sure, and I have to say I really, really respect your incredible journalism-- you're honestly doing work that people at the New York Times used to do, and deserve recognition for that. On the other hand I'm leery of giving her a platform to spread more lies, attempt to manipulate more people and try to spin her horrific actions.
Brandon, I love your docummentaries and your way of editing, but I really cannot help but hate this one. Troughout the video, you keep ignoring the disgusting stuff she has made and it feels like you're giving her a chance and a platform for people to feel bad for her and seek forgiveness. At least, you should've showed the other side as well. The terrible things she has to done minors and animals. Maybe you think you're doing good, but you really aren't. She's known to have lied about so much stuff, so frequently, in so many different situations...People like her don't deserve any more chances. People like her completly deserve everything that's been coming to them. I'm really disappointed in how this video turned out, but I understand you maybe were just seeking to do the good thing and I understand that to a certain extent. Please take this as a learning experience to not repeat stuff like this again...
@@Bambi_Sapphic i believe he may have just wanted her to improve, after everything. i'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because he certainly doesn't seem like a terrible person. as i said in my comment, i think he should use this situation to sit back and reflect so he can improve
Great vid, missed yer content, also hope she gets better. I k ow she's lied in the past and I wouldn't be surprised if she did lie again but I'mm be optimistic and hope the best for her in her journey to get better.
to everyone saying she used and manipulated him: yes. absolutely. but PLEASE don’t blame brandon. he’s a victim of a serial liar and master manipulator, and from what i gather he’s also still a pretty young kid. he’s also not defending her at all, obviously. all he wanted to do was have a neutral interview and honestly got the chance of a lifetime interviewing the internet’s most universally hated person at present, but she twisted it and made it seem like she was the victim. if this video is in any way biased, it’s HER FAULT. brandon is just relaying the information he was given, and he can’t help it if that information is false, because when it comes to sappho, he really has no way of knowing. nobody does. this is an INSANE undertaking for such a new content creator. please, go easy on him.
I think people would be more understanding of all that if there was any part of this video where he actually discussed the horrendous actions she's done in the past. But he said himself he wasn't going to talk about the past events and just wanted to talk about that damn website. Which is very clearly for other creeps like her, it didn't need a forty minute video speculating it's intentions with recordings of Sappho bullshitting in between. He only interviewed her, he didn't press her on anything serious and essentially did just give her a platform to stand on and preach about how she thinks children and animals can consent. He didn't get the victims side of the story, he didn't interview any of them and he didn't discuss Sappho's crimes at all. This whole video feels like a downgrade compared to his first. It feels pointless and like it's lacking the thing that made the others so good, actually paying mind to the real victims in the situation. But instead, this whole video comes off as a Sappho pity party. Even if he is young, he has a platform now. A quite large one, and people like Sappho are *dangerous* , it is his responsibility to think about who he's platforming and the light he's allowing them to be platformed in. That's just a consequence of being a morally decent UA-camr. I'm 21 and I understand that, and I'm not a UA-camr with a large platform.
Need to repost this comment from user beingasillybilly : "Just a reminder Sappho was known to lie multiple times. She lied about a kid's death and she lied about getting help and she lied about committing unalive and she's extremely manipulative so just don't believe her words or take it the 100℅ truth and take a mountain of salt about what she says." I needed to repost this because it is important to know it. This video tries to do big impact on your thoughts of the both sides and there is possibility that someone will think Sappho is just wrongly looked at.

So she was groomed repeatedly online on top of being abused by her father, and she is so deep in denial that she's continuing the cycle of abuse. She doesn't want to believe that she didn't have as much control over the situations in her childhood as she was lead to believe. As sad as that is, that doesn't erase or excuse the harm she's done.
I really hope she's serious about getting real help this time.
She is getting help
The lead pill really helps, so I've heard.
Trauma may be the cause for behavior but its not an excuse for your actions
@@pancakesplease7913 truth
she is beyond help. Sex pests universally are agreed upon as incurable. She deserves prison time instead.
If someone goes through horrific abuse and turns out a broke person it doesn't mean they have any justification for abusing others. She's a prime example for the self perpetuating cycle of abuse. Should they be traumatized enough her victims and the victimizers she helps will continue the cycle.
I was literally s.a as a child and yet I will never justify or understand why or how people think it's ok. It's not because she "wasn't traumatized" that it's ok for her to do it to others. It's so sad to see people like that who thinks their past somehow justifies their actions.
After all she may furfill (no pun intended) her job as a hypnotist.
That is so true.
Sure as the sun... will rise... the slaughter... will continue
I'd add more to this, who cares ? Like really i dont know the cu*t, im not interested in her traumas
I can't say I feel bad for her after the shit she pulled.
I'm not perfect either but I'm not grooming kids, advocating for animal abuse, or manipulating my friends to try to protect me.
Amen.
@@Bambi_Sapphic Agreed, Not to mention, When she said its okay to be in a relationship WITH A MINOR and tried to kinda justify it will age range and/or the fact it may not be sexual makes my blood boil, like it doesn't matter if its not sexual its still being a p3do being in a relationship with a minor in general. I completely agree she doesn't deserve any more sympathy and does deserve to be locked up. She lies abt all the shit that basically happens and literally hasn't gotten help but thinks we wont turn a blind eye to her saying she's gonna get help for like the 100th time.
None of us are perfect, but like you said, we aren't grooming kids or banging the family dog, and that's close enough to perfect in this respect.
Well it seems like they're finally getting help
she's literally a pathological liar and this dude is taking all of it at face value
no matter what she went through, she deserves no sympathy. hurting children and others isn’t excusable from trauma. a lot of ppl have bad childhoods but not all of them turn out this way.
*HE
The abuse she has gone through is not an excuse for the abuse she has caused.
I hope Sappho fucking rots
It's no excuse, but is is the reason. That said, she's still responsible for her own actions and should just get off the internet and seek help... or die.
agreed.
facts 💯
Someone has to stop the cycle, but who?
22:26 "there's some MAPS" maps stands for "minor attracted person" I am a queer person and they are NOT a part of out community. It my eyes (I am a minor) it's 100% pedophilic behavior. It's not a sexuality. Its an "excuse" to be a pedo. She's was obviously groomed and abused as a minor and she is blinded by a false sense that she was in control. And she's continuing the cycle of abuse.
@@Bambi_Sapphic yeah. And as a memeber of the LGBT community the fact that they have tried to make themselves part of our community (making a flag and such) it feels like a slap in the face and a way of mocking us and making their views have a sense of "normalcy" it's really disgusting.
@@Bambi_Sapphic Last I checked the entire "MAP" term was a /pol/ psy-op so it's pretty easy to assume anyone who uses the term in earnest might be affiliated with that board.
To add, paraphilias are not sexualities because that'd also be the equivalent of someone cis and straight saying they're queer because they like feet.
There was a time when we were just the LGB, and queer was a slur. Allyship is a politically motivated statement, period. YOUR community and THE community are two different things.
What you're calling the "community" is actually a political block; an identity-shaped wedge made to force you into a box, where if you resist the will of the vague social order, you put your own social acceptability at risk.
Think about it this way: the year is 2030 - midterm elections. Your state is electing a governor this election. The two front-running candidates are a SocDem and a MAGA. During a debate, the issue is brought up; SocDem says "stop vilifying MAPs", MAGA says "stop touching children." Who would you vote for? Furthermore and more broadly, would you campaign in the community for a candidate they ideologically oppose if you truly believe they hold harmful views towards prurient adult-minor interactions?
This is how MAP acceptance will likely be foisted upon us. Not by us or for us, but by the people who use us for their benefit.
@@ArbitraryOutcome Queer literally means sexual or gender identity that does not correspond with established ideas of sexual or gender identity. By definition that's queer. Try again
We absolutely can not normalize the term "map" please for the love of god

And the fact they consider themselves apart of the lgbtq community like ummm no

I understand she won't leave the internet and healing isn't easy but this time I'm actually hoping she does this time. If she continues this, I don't think we should give her attention.

@@joielain7839 personally, I don't think she should've got swatted. But if she had committed the crime of bestiality or child sexual abuse then I rather wanted her arrested and thrown in jail.
I'm a close friend to a person she very recently doxxed, and made life a living hell.
Sappho is someone who knows how to manipulate you, knows how to extract sympathy, and knows how to ruin your life if you upset her. I want to give her some sympathy for the supposed abuse she was put through, but in the same way, I'm baffled that she made my friend's life a living hell that she still dealing with to this day. She's been attacked, she's been stalked, accused of the very things that Sappho is called out for, and through it all, Sappho told her that it would never stop, that she deserved it, and tried to convince her that she was just as depraved as Sappho was.
Sappho constantly called her a friend, while constantly punishing her for standing up to her.
There are very few people who I label as pure evil, but Sappho is one of them. Maybe I'm somewhat biased in this assertion, but when you have friends calling you, saying how goons just attempted to sexually assault her, and left literal dog hearts at their place of work... I cannot mince words. Sappho is pure evil.
bro what. HOLY FUCK that makes me realize that there is people who believe and support sapho. I bet they are all furry zoophile bastards, please protect your friend and wound any of those kinds of people they deal with. and by wound, I mean hospitalize, if they are stalking her, and assaulting her, you can fight back, AND DO SO

Although I hear everything what Sappho has said in the interview and final message. Actions do speak louder than words. She has dug a huge hole for herself due to her lying numerous times. So it's not unreasonable to take her message with a grain of salt.
I do hold out a small hope for her and her recovery if she is truly genuine. But she really set herself on a long, Rocky road to recovery.
She is getting help
Her entire fucking speech she uses hypnotic language to fuck with the audience. She does this with everyone. Don't give her the time of day. She truly deserves nothing.

*HE/HIM
I don't know what else to say, but this whole video feels manipulative, sugar coated to garner sympathy. Her wording and tone of voice is unsettling, it's been used to disarm and harm her victims. Due to her actions, lying, etc, as much as some of us want to see her seek help, it's more than likely not going to happen, as she will either relapse or is just putting on an act. You've given a platform and voice to an abuser not to mention putting what is most likely more dead air behind a paywall as Patreon bait.
It's clear judging from a lot of comments I'm not the only one bothered by this, you didn't give the victims a voice, not to mention this video will most likely be triggering to a lot of victims of abuse who view this. Even with all the context of why she became the way she is now does not justify her actions.

i think the most important thing for him is that hes not just yelling at her or his viewers saying "oh this girl is a pedophile" but is instead being very professional and mature about it, displaying all the facts of the situations, being informative, while still being clearly against her actions
@@bappp0 its scary to think how many peoples heads this might go over, i found it fascinating
seeing all of his work i think we could all see that brandon isnt trying to be aggressive at any given moment, he is being mature about everything that he touches upon, acknowledging every bad thing calmly because he knows that we, as a viewer, more than capable of understanding what is considered bad and good, that we have our own heads on shoulders to think about everything that he presents in his videos. like the other commentator said, we can clearly see that he is against her actions, him wanting sappho get better isnt about forgetting her actions but about finally letting this rabbit hole to close, letting people that got harmed heal and just letting everyone involved to reast and go on about their lifes knowing that that person wont try to hurt others again.
It's hard to believe that her moments of clarity are genuine when she falls back into advocating for some of the most cruel and vile behaviors a human can participate in. If someone truly knew and believed that they were doing something so terrible, I don't know how they could do it all over again.
@@thedissent729 That would be a pleasant surprise, but I doubt she will considering her pattern of behavior
Yeah, because while it’s called a “moment of clarity”, it doesn’t literally mean it was just for a moment they could see they were doing bad shit. She had to actively deny and lie to herself to get out of that “moment” multiple times if that even happened. I’m going to finish the video just for the sake of saying that I did, but giving this person yet another platform to speak on is a terrible idea from the start

I really love your content Brandon! I have been watching since the beginning and the quality is great.
This video feels like a unwelcome surprise, it still has your amazing quality in editing and story. But it FEELS like its trying to make me think a certain way, you are extremely kind to this person who has groomed, lied about a kid taking their life, threatened and guilt tripped that they would take their own life, abused animals, spread their beliefs about animal abuse and so so much more.
I get that its just an interview but listening to it and especially the parts where she speaks feel like something that would be disgusting to her victims to hear.
It just feels like you are taking too long to state your beliefs since the vibe of the video makes it feel like you are on her side. If i hadnt seen your channel before this video i would probably spend alot of it being scared.
Also keep in mind that she has serious problems with lying, i really dont believe that she will try to be better, she has said it before several times and then caught dating some child.
the purpose of the video is so you can see the interview and form your own opinions based on the facts, perspectives, and comments of both sides of the story
if you don't include both perspectives in a professional, unbiased manner, it's still a one-sided story, whether you're on the morally right or wrong side
the video isn't meant to only be viewed on its own, it's an extension of the previous coverage to provide both sides of the story
I'm really disappointed on you, Brandon. You got tricked by the oldest trick in an abusers skill tree: "Oh I'm so sorry please I won't do it again"
As said, her final message should be taken with a grain of salt. Brandon established that in the video. He did not fall for anything, but stayed sceptical the entire time.
he didn't fall for anything though, he was just listening to her talk.
how did he fall for it?? all he did was interview her and posted it. He didn’t say “guys she’s a changed person 100%, her past justifies her actions.” like what?
he didnt fall for it? lmao
People really hating on this but it’s just journalism, he’s not taking a position because it’s obvious what position should be taken. He’s just giving us all of the information man
I love the work you do to create these documentaries but I cannot watch this video knowing the accusations and actual proven allegations against Sappho. Her voice alone makes me feel an anger deep inside my stomach that people like her who lie repeatedly and don't actually try to change themselves to be better are still walking the streets of this world. People like her/him/them (I don't claim to know Sappho's pronouns, nor do I personally care) should be made, potentially even forced into treatment to make sure they don't go out and harm themselves or others.
He doesn't even give any of the massive mountains of evidence that she's a monster to make this video a balanced documentary. This seems like some sort of reputation piece more than anything. Paints her in a good light as if she's a victim. Maybe she was a victim a couple decades ago, but not now. Hopefully Brandon here doesn't support child rape like the furry he's trying to boost the reputation of.
The moment I heard the voice, I immediately recognized her and knew exactly where this was headed. I can't believe you actually got the chance to even interview her.
EDIT: So I just finished the video and wow. That went in the complete opposite way. You did not even press her as often on what she has done or what the purpose of the website is. Why did you adding the "shocking" window of getting swatted even though you know the person your talking to has committed horrible crimes.
"No matter how bad the crime is, you can truly never get rid of them off the internet" Really? That's your main takeaway that just because a website exists we can never get rid of people? What your saying in that is "Bad people exist, so we shouldn't try to get rid of them since they'll just stay on the website anyway. Oh well."
I thought the whole point of the video was to unmask and show how Sappho hasn't changed and how people like her will still stay on a platform that even if they never get rid of her, yet you don't get to that point 30 minutes into the video and just let her say whatever she wants without pressuring that her way of thinking is wrong.
You didn't interview her, you didn't question her, you just gave her a microphone and a timer. Do better man, you've pressured people in interviews for less.
Wait, who?

She needs to be indefinitely institutionalized. It's sad to say, but some people reach a point where they're beyond help. When someone reaches that point, we have to wash our hands and shift focus to helping those who still have a chance.

Dang, I had to go back and watch Chapter 5 of The Dark Side of VR again to feel the full weight of this one. The person who talked about how calculated and careful Sappho is is so important to keep in the back of your pocket when listening to her in this video. And of course the perspective from Sappho's maybe most well-known victim.
I used to intern for a practice that had patients who were some of the most cruel predators you can imagine and/or who had various paraphilias, and it takes so much to bear that in mind while also holding the weight of their personhood and resisting the urge to disregard it while *also* not downplaying the personhood of the victims of these patients who may not be receiving the support that they need like their victimizers are. From that background, I appreciate how challenging being part of this discussion, editing this video and anticipating the aftermath would have been.
Holy crap
I decided to leave medical after working in urology and all I had to deal with was older older dudes not liking the idea that they were about to be catheterized by a girl with tattoos.
You must have stories.
Also the doctors sucked and treated people like a meat locker.
@TinkerCat You must have some sick tats to have those dudes so intimidated!--I wish I could be shocked about the doctors, but, ugh.
There's definitely a lot of characters I remember! Sometimes I want to spill the deets to someone just so they have to live with knowing the same Weird Shit as me, but I feel like even if I did that I wouldn't do the context justice. I swear I'm gonna be thinking of this one odd bird in particular (he was harmless, just weird as shit and full of drama) on my death bed. 😂
@@vampirebottom I did find a really good artist he’s been doing a lot of work lately. But honestly the audacity of these old men thinking I should care lol
Really disappointing that Brandon hasn't even addressed any of this and instead chose to go radio silent.
Agreed, he even posted a new video without mentioning it.
you have shown yourself to be relitvly unbiased with this and that has been exceedingly rare with most drama these days, i appreciate that greatly. Keep that up boss
So she had a moment of clarity for one day and then changed her mind the next because of people on the internet harassing her? Does that mean she relapsed as a "fuck you" to those people? In the end, the only one she's hurting is herself. The reason for the harassment is because she's into some fucked up shit and openly expressing it. People aren't gonna let that slide especially because it's about children and animals.
*HE/HIM
There is a level of empathy towards her for what she's been through. She sought love from older people due to her abuse by family in her past. It's text book. This empathy does not, in fact, excuse or endorse what she's saying. She's perpetuating abuse.
She needs to be stopped.
This isn't an interview, it's a spider weaving it's web.
this... wasnt a good video, man. you are letting her use you. shes done this exact crybaby shit before, and so many abusers do that. she told you what you wanted to hear.
i dont entirely blame you, but you shouldnt have done this.
As someone part of the furry community, she isn’t one of us
I follow this
truly
this ^
obviously, but you guys as a whole still need to get your shit together
Pretty much no one, furry or otherwise, besides whatever tiny echo chamber she has rightfully views her as absolutely vile.
It’s actually insane how much effort goes into these, I am instantly hooked as soon as I start watching these. Keep up the great work man
I love these documentaries man, tysm for spending your time on this
Really glad I read the comments section before going past the 7 minute mark. Damage control for a zoo is not OK.
i don't care that she was abused, you cannot make me have sympathy or pity for her. i was sexually abused too but i'm not out here ruining other people's lives because of it.
*HE/HIM
"Somebody just tried to kill me." Hopefully next time they are successful.
My all time belief is if you abuse children or animals you deserve nothing but the worst, and I will stick to that belief.
This was pretty weird to watch; my older brother used to be friends, according to him, to Sappho. It was weird to see a video about this person since all I’ve ever known was the name. My brother used to be fine with Sappho but when she started mentioning the weird stuff, that is when he realized how messed up she was; it’s interesting yet disgusting to learn these things since I never personally met her, something I’m happy about.
Just because you were abused, doesn’t make it right to abuse others. Their is no excuse.
Actions speak, will see.
It's great to see how often you put out your videos while keeping up the quality
dont call them maps thats what they want to be called
These people cannot be rehabilitated.
TWO VIDEOS IN PRACTICALLY A MONTH...keep up the amazing work my guy. ♥
yo i love ur content man!
remember guys! a deceased predator has a 0% chance of re-offending
Brandon: "Ok, but your "cyber security" document involves USA laws about arrests. Why is that?"
Sappho: **suddenly becomes saul goodman**
23:47
As a victim myself I strongly disagree with pedophilia it is something that those who suffer from it should get help right away.
It's pretty obvious since Sappho lacked a parental figure in their life they went out to seek older people online, and she is repeating the actions of those adults. (which is a big no no) Did she deserve to get swatted? I'd say no because it was a false report and they wasted the police officers time.
To those who are still struggling with the abuse they have experienced
please search this up!! :0 it may resonate with you as it did to me! hopefully to lift up the weight you've been carrying.
POCD Pedophilic obsessive-compulsive disorder
don't be afraid to ask for help! keep moving forward!
unfortunately being a victim to these things people have a chance of developing these actions.
Just because she was abused, it doesn't make it right for her to abuse others.
And I honestly believe that children under 18 shouldn't have any social media of any kind because shit like this.
why on earth would you give her a platform? and then monetize it thru patreon? i've lost an immense amount of respect for you
i believe the right to free speech is Paramount but the patreon lock for the full interview is a little scummy
@@Bambi_Sapphic literally this is such a mockery of the whole thing. an almost fictionalization of the real events. she has REAL victims.
@@icedhibiscus I think maybe the fact there hasn't been police action should be a clue for your brain to ponder on
I'm sorry I couldn't really make it to the end of the video due to anger, but I'm not really sure what all this questioning as to the intention of the website is for. Sappho said in this interview that they are a MAP, and were hoping that the website would help those in their community. That seems like a really sugar-coated way of saying that they're a pedo hoping to help other pedos to cover their tracks. I don't understand this whole ordeal of giving someone who has publicly stated their wishes to abuse and assault both children and animals a platform. No matter the circumstances of their past one must know not to harm others. But the scariest thing about all of it is that Sappho seems to genuinely not understand why what they're doing is harmful, which in turn makes them highly dangerous. They claim that their relationships with the adults they had in their childhood were "healthy" and "loving". I don't think it takes a scientist to understand that this means that fundamentally they believe that adults and children can carry out romantic relationships that are healthy. I mean for fucks sake they can't even see the abuse and manipulation they went through as a child. I don't think I need to explain why fucked this is? What was the point of this video? I genuinely don't understand. This shouldn't make anyone sympathize with them, they're saying inadvertently that they will never change, for fucks sake they don't even believe what they did was wrong. How is someone supposed to be apologetic if they don't even understand what they're apologizing for? I don't know all the lore there is to know about Sappho, and frankly, I don't care to know. I don't care how such a person gets contained, I just hope that they are prevented from getting in contact with children, and animals, and from further encouraging maps to continue to be disgusting pedophiles. I empathize with a lot of people, but I fucking refuse to be preached to empathize with a pedo and an animal fucker.
Her "final message" .. is another grift. I am sorry sir, but I believe the terms is .. Played.. you got played by her. I think the tenor and tone of your interview would have been better served with interviewing at least ONE of their victims. and the damage she has done to the furry community that has fought for 3 decades to separate the fandom from bestiality, Zoophilia and pedophilia. If you ever follow up on this. Please contact me. and we will talk about things you obviously don't know or were aware of prior to this interview
23:57 "if your thoughts are cloudy..." They aren't, death penalty.
Agreed. She's almost framed as a victim, but people that don't hold themselves accountable need to be forced out of society.
"if your thoughts are cloudy; instead of looking outside, step outside"
what a convoluted way to tell someone to go touch grass
It's very deep and inspirational. I am confused though because I fell from a 3 story building while following those instructions and now I have brain damage.
@@EgoistTheMoon INSTRUCTIONS UNCLEAR. FELL FROM A 3 STORY BUILDING.
This feels tone deaf to a point and it sounds more supporting Sappho because Sappho is known to lie and to lie about important information. Although it is possible for her to be abused in a household like that, but because of her past of lying a lot I don't believe her. But of course if she is right then I will admit that I am wrong. As for the website, we all know who it's for. I also believe that you messed up in giving up your questions to her because she was allotted time to come up with answers that benefited her the most while not showing your questions you could of seen if she would had made contradicting statements and slowly unravel a bit more. I also wish you had also interview the victims of Sappho or people that were close to her so you could get their side so there's more of a balance, and again to see if there is and contradicting points to her's. To end this small paragraph I hope she is getting the help she needs and goes through with it and I sincerely hope there will be no more victims of Sapphho.
i have lasted 30 minutes and i never felt more disgusted in my life...
With all due respect, this video is extremely disrespectful towards the victims of the situation. I get that different perspectives are important but you basically gave her a platform to speak on. You did not question her at all or even "interviewed" her. Predators and abusers do not deserve a platform nor a place to tell "their side of the story", they need to seek professional help. Being featured in a video is not helping her at all. This is really disappointing Brandon.
so your agianist freedom of speech? are you fine with blindly following the victim not understanding the full story? the predator/abusers do deserve a platform right or wrong, if they are liars or truth tellers because who knows sometimes they might be framed wrongly and we need to know how they think and what they have been through to fully stop them... and prevent more of them from becomng as no one is born a predator and they are made by their surroundings and understanding there side allows us to stop them from happening before it even begins as they are not the tonly problem as the abusers and wrong people in there life also caused them to be like this, now not saying she is right or this or that, she realistically needs to go to prison and get done for her crimes if she did indeed do those things as prison is meant to be a rehabilitation centre at its foremost so she can get treated for the things she has done and let go off the past that caused her to be like this.
@@jaydenseaton6698 I never said that I was against freedom of speech, I said that I was against giving platforms to people that have been PROVEN to be criminals (ie. zoophile, pedophiles). There is definite proof that she has groomed kids and has put animals at risk. This comment is very nitpicky and does not apply to the situation at all. I don't get the point of you even bringing this up.
The way he gave Sappho a platform to make herself into the victim is awful. "Yeah I sexually assault dogs and groom kids b-but I got swatted and people on the internet hurt my fweelings🥺" isn't good enough and the fact that she uses it as an excuse for her behavior is appalling.
To give Sappho a platform to portray herself as the victim or not as bad is horrible. And to barely even talk about her countless victims is even worse. This was barely an interview, it was just "feel bad for an animal rapist and child groomer for 40 minutes" and that's unbelievably upsetting. To let her talk isn't bad, but to let her give a sob story to make everyone feel bad and do damage control is not okay.
bro chill the fuck out, every side can be heard even if you don't like it. Nobody fucking likes her. You being disappointed in him just giving another perspective is useless.
@Patience Carey I can give criticism on how he interviewed her, especially because he gave her the opportunity to make herself into the uwu victim as if she hasn't literally taken advantage of vulnerable animals and children. I said that it isn't wrong to let her talk and tell her story, but to let her act like she's innocent and make it so that she's able to do damage control is not okay.
Oh my god a Sappho interview.
something that pisses me off almost as much as the actions shes committed is the blatant manipulation she weaves into the way she talks while she tries to mask it with her soft tone.
especially the 33:10 part of the video, I couldn't get through that audio recording bc it just made me so unnaturally angry.
I knew someone back in early highschool who talked the same way and holy fuck I cant stand it.
Definitely one of the best up and coming video essay style UA-camrs, keep up the hard work!
i understand you had good intentions behind this video but why are you giving a child predator a platform like this without at least giving victims a chance to speak about their side of the story too?
I was looking forward to your next video, keep making stuff man!
I always love how polished these videos are so keep it up man
It's up to the person with trauma to cease the abusive cycles that were inflicted on them. As someone with PTSD who knows not to hurt others, I get very annoyed when people like this try to hide behind what they went through.
Actions speak louder then words… If Sappho were to get help, the 5.3 Million people in that exact fandom need validation.
People lie daily.
People want sympathy.
People want attention.
Lying does it best. And it’s sickening. I hate to burst the bubble… Even with me having autism, I can pick up *so many* ques and it’s concerning.
This is really awful. You lost credibility when you tried to conflate an internet groomer with a cult leader with the intent to sensationalize your content and you’re losing credibility giving this predator a platform. One is worse than the other
Everyone should have a right to privacy. However, everyone also has the duty to be a decent human. People like her need help learning what being a decent human means since they can’t do it themselves, and if their privacy suffers because of that then so be it. They have nobody to blame but themselves.
Realy hyped for this
The worst part, is she wants to become a Martyr. If that happens, she will become unstoppable.
Please practice interviewing before you try to interview someone like this again
This just seems like an open mic for her
Nah, everything she says about becoming a better person is bullshit. She won't change. She will never change. She doesn't want to change. She is lying to try to get out of trouble yet again. I doubt she will ever change, taking her past with similar lies into account. She will need to really prove that she has changed, and it will have to be a long process before she has proven herself.
I'm consistently blown away by the quality of your videos and the topics they explore. Keep it up pal you're going to go far in this game
I hope she actually gets help and realizes her mindset is not okay
w furry
Hey man I love your video, but this one isn’t good. Sappos has done a lot of bad thing and as her history has shown she doesn’t seem to want to be redeemed. Actions speak louder than words after all.
I know your trying to do a good thing, and I respect that your doing what you think is right. I’ve been their but be careful with things like this. Some people are wolves in sheep’s clothings. Sappos is one of those people. Be careful and what ever happens don’t double down and keep a level head.
Listening to this while doing some work. I have no idea who this person is, what they did, why are they notorious. The more I hear this interview and the more I heard her talk, I already had an uneasy feeling. Felt like she was bullshitting out the gate. The responses felt rehearsed on her part. Reading these comments just confirmed my intuition. Her past doesn’t justify any of her actions. Geez I never felt someone try to manipulate their shitty narrative so hard. Nearly gave me a migraine and made me sick to my stomach.
HAHAHAHAHAHA FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG THANK YOU
It's crazy how such a small UA-camr can pump out goated videos like these
he has 125k subs
@@biz117 he makes great vids for his channel size, people with 100k don't typically make content this good and deep
Thank you so much on doing a video about this monster
I assure you behind that calm voice a maelstrom of emotional insanity you cannot bend your mind around exists. We see what she shows us online and not the nihilistic cogs that churn beneath
Brandnn, you make such good videos, its crazy how well-produced these are, please keep making more ominous videos, like the one with omori.
Ive been waiting for a new video any video of his is a 10/10 keep up the good work man
bro i love this channel sm, i get so excited when i see an upload
My friend met sapho in vrc, he recognized her, soon everyone else did, then she was harassed out the lobby
Honestly as horrible as this all is it is quite fascinating. It’s the most convincing evidence I’ve ever seen of perpetuated cycle of abuse.
As someone who has been seeking the true identity of sappho with a community of 75 odd people this is insane. we have taken down Felicipaws/Kalikat, SykaraVR, Mommy Crystal, FireNightFurry_ (all right hand men of sappho) and we have made large process on getting sappho herself. obviously we were beaten to it. i dont know what to do know to be honest if this confession of guilt and a promise to do better is true it doesnt really matter. so were going to keep up i guess becuase she hasnt paid for anything yet.

Thank you guys, I hope you know that what you are doing is amazing.
Do you really think a serial manipulator who constantly tries to get sympathy was actually "swatted" mid-interview? I have my doubts. This was interesting, for sure, and I have to say I really, really respect your incredible journalism-- you're honestly doing work that people at the New York Times used to do, and deserve recognition for that. On the other hand I'm leery of giving her a platform to spread more lies, attempt to manipulate more people and try to spin her horrific actions.
Why are we platforming predators?? I feel like I need to take a shower after this
Brandon, I love your docummentaries and your way of editing, but I really cannot help but hate this one. Troughout the video, you keep ignoring the disgusting stuff she has made and it feels like you're giving her a chance and a platform for people to feel bad for her and seek forgiveness. At least, you should've showed the other side as well. The terrible things she has to done minors and animals.
Maybe you think you're doing good, but you really aren't. She's known to have lied about so much stuff, so frequently, in so many different situations...People like her don't deserve any more chances. People like her completly deserve everything that's been coming to them.
I'm really disappointed in how this video turned out, but I understand you maybe were just seeking to do the good thing and I understand that to a certain extent. Please take this as a learning experience to not repeat stuff like this again...
@@Bambi_Sapphic i believe he may have just wanted her to improve, after everything. i'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because he certainly doesn't seem like a terrible person. as i said in my comment, i think he should use this situation to sit back and reflect so he can improve
BrandonFM Just Posted my day litterally got 10x better
Great vid, missed yer content, also hope she gets better. I k ow she's lied in the past and I wouldn't be surprised if she did lie again but I'mm be optimistic and hope the best for her in her journey to get better.
I was waiting for you to cover this~ Great job, Brandon!!!!! 😎👏👏
to everyone saying she used and manipulated him: yes. absolutely. but PLEASE don’t blame brandon. he’s a victim of a serial liar and master manipulator, and from what i gather he’s also still a pretty young kid. he’s also not defending her at all, obviously. all he wanted to do was have a neutral interview and honestly got the chance of a lifetime interviewing the internet’s most universally hated person at present, but she twisted it and made it seem like she was the victim. if this video is in any way biased, it’s HER FAULT. brandon is just relaying the information he was given, and he can’t help it if that information is false, because when it comes to sappho, he really has no way of knowing. nobody does. this is an INSANE undertaking for such a new content creator. please, go easy on him.
I think people would be more understanding of all that if there was any part of this video where he actually discussed the horrendous actions she's done in the past. But he said himself he wasn't going to talk about the past events and just wanted to talk about that damn website. Which is very clearly for other creeps like her, it didn't need a forty minute video speculating it's intentions with recordings of Sappho bullshitting in between.
He only interviewed her, he didn't press her on anything serious and essentially did just give her a platform to stand on and preach about how she thinks children and animals can consent. He didn't get the victims side of the story, he didn't interview any of them and he didn't discuss Sappho's crimes at all.
This whole video feels like a downgrade compared to his first. It feels pointless and like it's lacking the thing that made the others so good, actually paying mind to the real victims in the situation.
But instead, this whole video comes off as a Sappho pity party. Even if he is young, he has a platform now. A quite large one, and people like Sappho are *dangerous* , it is his responsibility to think about who he's platforming and the light he's allowing them to be platformed in. That's just a consequence of being a morally decent UA-camr. I'm 21 and I understand that, and I'm not a UA-camr with a large platform.
Top tier video as always
This is something else that I’ve never seen out of all of the Sappho videos
The editing in these videos are so well done.
Need to repost this comment from user beingasillybilly :
"Just a reminder Sappho was known to lie multiple times. She lied about a kid's death and she lied about getting help and she lied about committing unalive and she's extremely manipulative so just don't believe her words or take it the 100℅ truth and take a mountain of salt about what she says."
I needed to repost this because it is important to know it. This video tries to do big impact on your thoughts of the both sides and there is possibility that someone will think Sappho is just wrongly looked at.
@Reality Damn, she will for sure change this time. xD
