Valkyrae Takes Legal Action Against Misleading Posts
YouTube sensation Valkyrae has recently announced her decision to seek legal counsel following a series of negative posts on X that utilized out-of-context clips from her streams to provoke hostility and misinformation.
Misrepresentation Sparks Harassment
On November 29, Valkyrae expressed her frustrations on X, calling out specific accounts that misrepresented her words, leading to harassment. One particular incident involved a now-deleted post that inaccurately portrayed her experience at an all-female hot spring in Japan, framing it as a scandalous encounter, rather than a harmless outing with friends.
Not really sure how to deal with out of context clips with insane titles. Here’s an example of when I was sharing an experience going to an all female onsen in Japan with friendsI get people are just trying to make a few bucks with the logo and stuff but the hate I’ve received… https://t.co/8D16hDDNrR
“While I understand that some seek profits through sensational posts, the backlash I’ve faced due to these fabrications has been overwhelming,” she stated. Valkyrae further elaborated that some of these clips stemmed from conversations surrounding non-consensual experiences, and she felt unjustly criticized for sharing her stories.
Legal Advice Sought
In response to the ongoing harassment, Valkyrae updated her followers on November 30 and revealed that she was pursuing legal advice. “I’ve been inspired and made an appointment with a lawyer,” she happily shared.
I’ve been inspired and made an appointment with a lawyer 🥲
Fan Support and Community Backlash
Valkyrae has garnered significant support from her fanbase, with many advocating for her to take legal action against the accounts that perpetuate these incendiary narratives. Recent posts, frequented by the “Stake” logo, have taken her remarks out of context, often pairing them with inappropriate titles that distort her intended messages.
For instance, during a light-hearted moment on the Press ESC podcast, Valkyrae jokingly expressed gratitude for “cock.” This innocent jest was twisted by certain users, including one who claimed she was grateful for a roster of men and was promiscuous, further adding to the misrepresentation.
Such distortions have provoked backlash, prompting various users to attach Community Notes to clarify the inaccuracies present in these posts, which may also violate the platform’s content guidelines.
Next Steps
As of now, it is uncertain whether Valkyrae will proceed with legal actions against the specific accounts involved in spreading these misleading representations. The issue raises broader concerns about digital harassment and the ramifications of misappropriating someone’s words online.
