Finally, the showdown will begin. Probably won’t be able to catch it live but I’ll definitely watch the archive.

The person claiming this is @TheBestFigen. And who is that? Why are they reporting this? You don’t trust random sources on twitter for news.

Idk but they have more than a million followers. If someone with that reach posts misleading information it’s good to correct it.

I mean, I’m not completely against that… but Crowdstrike is an American company. Did you comment on the wrong post?

Nope, weirdly no imposters were sighted this time, although I’m not sure what the little guy above the sapling is supposed to be

Someone on Reddit had Gamma’s message Google Translated like this, for what it’s worth:

Regarding this contract cancellation

I would like to apologize for causing inconvenience and anxiety to all the Hololive Stars members, fans, and the management of Hololive Productions who have supported me up until now due to my lack of self-control. I would like to inform you that after consulting with the management, I received permission to post this document.

■To all Gamma assistants

The two and a half years I worked there was truly a dream-like time, and the time I spent with all my assistants was a happy and irreplaceable time.

I worked hard every day to achieve the goals we talked about with everyone, putting all my heart and soul into my activities so that I would have no regrets, and I am truly sorry that we had to part ways like this. Supported me when I was clumsy I love you all from now on and always will. Thank you very much for supporting Hisaki Gamma until now.

■To everyone who has helped me in my activities so far

I am very sorry that we had to part ways so suddenly. I was able to interact with people who I have admired since before my debut. I will never forget the memories I made with you all. I’m really thankful to you.

Hizaki Gamma

The “lack of self-control” part seems to have a vague wording in Japanese so it’s unlikely to be accurate, but the rest should be correct.

I’m still more attached to Shien’s version but man, Suisei covers/originals are always great.

Another one I could see is that he wanted to vote Republican but at some point realized that Trump sucks ass to put it mildly. So he tried to somehow push the Rep party to at least get back in touch with the idea of sanity by killing him?

I could see that happening. While I still dislike it, conservatism by itself is a valid ideology. Maybe he believed in the core principles of the party (small government, free market, christianity, etc.) and was sick of the main candidate being a lying fascist that is the spitting image of the biblical antichrist.

Wake up call for what? They won last election with a corporate candidate and have a decent chance of doing it this time too. Like the post says, they don’t care that much about losing, their life isn’t threatened by it.

The only thing that can be done is to keep on voting for the non-fascist candidate hoping that one day both of the main parties will present one that fits the category.

I feel very stupid for not noticing that.

But 5AM for whoever screenshotted the tweet might not be 5AM for the one who posted it.
