Bao Reveals SECRET in new post [0:11]
Bao the whale, an English-speaking YouTuber, faced criticism for her statements, particularly one advising against engaging with larger, successful male content creators. This was seen as sexist. She issued an apology that was poorly received due to its perceived insincerity. Bao later revealed that her brother was in a coma after being hit by a van, and her aunt was in a vegetative state following a series of strokes. This personal crisis explains her recent behavior and sensitivity. She is organizing a 6-hour charity stream on November 9th to support the Brain Injury Association of America. While this context explains her actions, it doesn't excuse the need for a better apology. Despite the situation, Bao's actions could have been worse, and she deserves understanding. Salvi expresses empathy, wishes Bao and her family well, and hopes for the recovery of her brother and aunt.
