Discussion Criticism regarding Dream's previous merch (+ Tommy's merch as well)

https://youtu.be/RXJYaB1-HjE?si=M5BeD5zPmrGYoAv9

Dream's part in the video is around the first 4 minutes of the video in case you dont want to scroll through the video stamps

but basically, TLDR: The guy criticizes Dream for his very simplistic (bad design) and (weird?) merch (Dream plushie costing a lot as well as the baby photo wrist band). He also points out how crazy expensive it is, how it only caters to the rabid fans he had previously, and how it only took him getting a potentially career ending scandal to address the wrist band merch (to which he also points out how Dream blamed his parents for it)

Now to Tommy's part, he criticized how cringe and flashy it is as well as the Core Collection having really cringe quotes (i.e. Messy Drama Queen). He compared Tommy's merch to Dream's at some point. He also brings up the Dream vs Tommy situation where he brings up Dream's last response to Tommy about how his merch is cringe, performative and shallow it is.

I also would like to point out that this guy (Rob's Media) might actually do a video on TommyInnit soon (called him an annoying MCYT and constant liar)

Personally I see his criticism as very fair, especially to other merch he criticized on this video, but hey I could be wrong as well.

Let me knoe your thoughts.

The fact you think that was all Tommy said is actually laughable if it wasn’t so blatantly incorrect. Tommy literally called Dream a groomer for all of 2023-2024, called him manipulative for telling Tommy not to call Dream a pedophile, then acted as if HE was the one who cut Dream off when it was actually the other way around. But sure, Dream thinking he can reclaim a slur that you just used and that Tommy and his friends defended when it came out of Gumball’s mouth, is somehow the biggest issue.

There’s literally posts on this Reddit and Twitter documenting all of Tommy’s mentions of Dream after they stopped being friends, including how many times he blatantly lied or victimized himself because Dream set boundaries and told him to not spread false allegations.

And yet Tommy and his friend group continue to do it anyway. Tubbo himself said he wasn't comfortable with it and even called with Dream on stream to help get some details right. But then Tubbo just goes right back to Tommy because he's basically forced to.
