Reply To: Greenstuff World Vs Sword N Steele

I guess my issue with the TWS video is that while they say they’re not calling for a shit storm or boycott of GWS, by putting out that video they are in fact promoting one, passively perhaps, but still promoting it all the same.  It’s full of emotive language and moral judgements culminating with statement that the author will never buy, promote or advertise GSW products again and is removing all references to them from their videos.  Obviously they aren’t calling for mass boycott or any thing like that no sir!  It’s their own personal decision to no longer buy from GSW. They’re just saying.  That they’re no longer buying GSW products.  Just in case you wanted to know.  For whatever reason.

They are basically virtue signalling, the moment they made the video it stopped being a personal choice.

I don’t know how true any of that is and quite frankly it doesn’t sound like something I really want to get involved in.  But purely regarding the matter at hand, the whole Sword’n’steel thing is one mahoosive storm in a teacup. I would guarantee that the publicity has benefited them far more than the strike has harmed them.  Just look at the view counts prior to this and then let’s see what their view counts are on their next videos.  That’s not a criticism of the channel as such, more a commentary about how everyone is massively over-reacting.
