This is just pitting trans people against each other for no reason. PT were less theatrical before she came out, but acting like a theater kid in your video editing choices isn't exclusive to any one YouTuber.
Edit: pronoun
Could you please correct the misgendering in your post? PT uses she/her pronouns exclusively.
Done
I was just comparing them since they're decently close friends, they're in the same niche and go for basically the same audience, and do things in the same style, it seemed like a pretty natural comparison to me
I understand, your comparison was fine. The person responding to you makes it sound like PT is ripping off Contrapoints though. Comparing their ideas, their production value and choices is fine, they do exist in a similar space, but there's nothing wrong with PT existing in a similar space. Straight white men are allowed to coexist with identical videos on YouTube. But someone in a marginalized group? Their channels are constantly pitted against each other.
Vaush/Xanderhal, Asmongold/Penguinz0 are all allowed to be successful even though they pretty much make the same videos and stream clips on the same topics. But for some reason creators from marginalized groups can't have similar tastes and ideas.
I'm pretty sure the person you were responding to is also trans like me and presumably you
Yes I am trans as well. Identity does not equal ideas though. Trans people can still say things and make implications I disagree with.
I think it's a joke - it's an absurd comparison so I don't think it's meant to be taken seriously
