@suuuoppp: To stop the speculation and DM's I am receiving. I chose to quit my role at LTT because it, and the working environment I was facing, were ruining my mental health. The number of daily items...…

TLDR:

Over work

Mentally draining/abusive workplace

harassment

(maybe intentionally) bad management practices

lack of any signs of improvement

    Curious why these things come forward after the company faces some backlash. Fueling the fire, as it were
    Big, if true

      LTT has or had a rabid fan base. I expect that if she talked out before the backlash, then the backlash would be against her. So yeah, it makes sense to strike while the iron is hot.

        I was thinking along a similar line, this is probably the safest it has been for her to talk about it publicly. Remember when LTT lost the auction for NCIX’s Youtube play button and his fanbase drove the ‘MindChop’ kid that won it into a deep depression and eventually suicide? I’m sure she remembers and knows the fanbases’ opinions on women in general.

      To me it seems like people wouldn’t have believed Madison as strongly if she had talked about it earlier.

      You heard of that thing that happened called Me Too? So weird, right, how the victims feel stronger even they are not alone anymore?

      She literally tells you she feels she can tell her story now that shit is hitting the fan, whereas she knew she’d have been shot down if it had come out in isolation.

      Of course she wants to had fuel to the fucking fire. And may it burn bright!
