I'm Menominee Native American myself, and I personally think it's completely fine you wear a headdress. I don't feel discriminated against in the slightest by it, and personally I think you look super cool and support!
Excellent words
If you want to wear it wear it. Always be you.
lovely
hi
^•^
I mean. Are you surprised?
I have been watching CZcams since 2005, and with a lot of time on my hands have seen a lot. I definitely agree with what you're saying--. I just feel like no matter what you say it won't stop. It's toxic for you. Take care of yourself, I hope to see less of these videos and more of your art sometime soon. I wish I was on other platforms to see more of your content but.. yeah. :')
*socially distanced wing hug*
I love you, Richie! I am beyond sick of the haters fucking with you instead of just ignoring you if they don't like you! Please learn to use your BLOCK button on these ignorant fuckers!! 💜🖤💜🖤
I am Cherokee.. and have family living on the reservation.. and I don’t know shit about this topic. 😂 I have no opinion on headdresses. What I can say, is that I have noticed that the majority of people screaming cultural appropriation on the internet, are literally people not even associated with the culture they’re crying about. I’m so tired of internet cancel culture and this whole new damn generation.
Ummm it's the millennials, not gen z,
Except for the weird kids who get upset about anything they hear.
Also most of TikTok doesn't know who Onision or repose is TBH, that's old school yt.
@@seaneric3517 As a millennial, I agree. We kind of went in hard on him for that. Our generation was the "start of the PC friendly" movement. Calling out racists, pedos, abusers, supporting trans right and all that. We didn't want the trauma past to us continue. But it started getting way out of hand in 2016. Right before this whole controversy started. I've always been on Riches side, as i never looked at him and thought "oH hEy He HaTeS iNdIaNs ToO" or some bullshit. just thought it was cool and moved on.
Ok 1% Cherokee
I am lakota. I live on the reservation and I grew up with the traditions of my culture. This is fucked up and disappointing. I've only seen very few of my elders wear a headdress because it's such an honor. Like you get a single eagle feather for your achievements, which is very difficult to obtain. A headdress is something you get over the course of your life. Which is why typically only traditional elders wear them in my culture. They've earned the sacred feathers that make up their headdress. When i see a white man, who has no respect and consideration to other people wear one. I am truly disgusted. You should be too. If you claim you're okay with this and indigenous. I think you're just colonized and I know your ancestors look at you with shame. You may be of indigenous descent but in order to be indigenous is to know your culture and history. I hope you see this as your calling to be apart of your beautiful Cherokee culture. (Which I am apart of). I hope you have an open heart and mind. We may not know each other but our bands are close, therefore I consider you a friend but only out of the respect of our ancestors and family. I wish you well friend.
I swear to fucking god if you say your great grandmother is a Cherokee princess
I am a survivor of pedophilia, I am also a mother! I Believe you!! I actually suggested your content to my daughter, she's really big into cosplay! I found you through that viral video, A wonderful woman stitched/dueted it! Loved it right away,(I saw those comments) so I scoured through your content! I found nothing but smiles and laughter thru everything I watched! Keep going your unique and shine bright, that's the only reason the want to get rid of you!
hi! I also cosplay and I don’t think this creator would be the best role model. I think that because he is using hair dresses used by indigenous people/ their culture! so he’s racist (culture appropriation) he has never formally apologized to the indigenous community and continues to wear the headdresses! :) sorry if I worded that weirdly!
@@biancaheller4660 research!!!! Do it! Not all indigenous people wear headdresses. Besides it doesn’t even look tribal anymore. So back it with facts.
@@biancaheller4660 he gave everyone an explanation on the head dresses. He owes NOBODY an apology just bc they refuse to listen to an explanation he did not owe you or anyone else in the first place. Goodness gracious.

i have just taken a deep dive into your content and this was actually hard to watch. its sickening that people speak to and about you this way. so often people forget a human is behind the screen having to take that in. i am “new here” and honestly, i think i’m here to stay 💜
This comment lol yes
"It was always about control."
Absolutely.

How do they even have the audacity to say you are a groomer if they don't even know who you are
I love your intelligence and point of view. I’m just sad I didn’t find you sooner 😀
THERE NEEDS TO BE LEGAL ACTION TAKEN! I was SA and groomed when I was young this makes me sick ! People shouldn’t say such horrible things about people especially that!
He honestly needs to sue his ex for defamation of character because of her videos where she approves of her fans attacking him and she has said it with her own words
@@zombiepanda5768 he honestly does and her new boyfriend is a satanist if y’all didn’t know he used to go out to Ohio with friends and do some sick stuff towards animals don’t support these people ! I listen to social repose because he brings me positivity I like his new album calamity
@@SidneyWatson how do you know that
@@SidneyWatson can you not spout Bs. He's atheist not Satanist. And there's no defamation because she never accused him of anything he didn't actually do.
@@zombiepanda5768 if you rub your two brain cells together you'll realize that defamation doesn't work like that. In order for him to even be able to sue her for defamation she would have to publicly accuse him if something he didn't do. If you're talking about the cheating incident that he did do and he already admitted to it and it was supposed to be done and over with. If he didn't actually do it and then she did that then maybe he would have a case. I see you posting in all these comments defending him so you're either a simp,a troll, or a cheater or let me guess all of the above 😂
I must have missed something, since when were you apparently a "groomer"?
Do people not realize how serious of an accusation that is though?
No. No one thinks it’s a serious accusation. People use it way too often. Takes the seriousness away from the word.
People throwing around these serious terms need to go touch some grass 🙏
Tiktok's been worse then just that lately actually. They also have been going so far as to say he beats women/Ape's them (add an R obviously) and much more.
Tiktok kinda reminds me of the old internet back when people hated people to be "edgy" and said a lot of highly volatile stuff just to be cool.
But, he's not a saint by any means. This stuff is too far though.
Can anyone even explain where these accusations are coming from? I’ve followed his life on CZcams since leafy because its just interesting and I can’t even figure out where these grooming accusations are coming. Gen Z is so obsessed with calling anyone and everyone a predator; it’s beyond bizarre
@@alextric2812 Ikr I've noticed so many people getting called some kind of child predator these days and then a lot of the internet accusations turn out to be completely false or just a misunderstanding 💀
I’ve literally never seen you physically interact with a kid before, why are people calling you a child groomer?????
because people like to throw around words and because its tiktok, they dont get punished for it,
Because he's ex saw messages of him taking inappropriately to minors
@@charlies3789 source? Because if you provide no source it's tough to believe.
@@toodoolooofuju7880 look up Ayalla. The way he treated her was just awful
@@charlies3789 I asked for a source for proof, not a comment
Is he genuinely saying the Native American tik toker isn’t allowed to say something is racist because he isn’t from the specific tribe? That’s genuinely a terrible argument lol
I'm Native American and I've always thought your use of the headdress was always dope, a lot of indigenous people literally never wear one anyway. keep being dope Richie!!
Just because you think it’s “dope” it doesn’t mean every other indigenous person is going to.
@@sierraisstressed And? Is SR supposed to get the personal approval of every indigenous person alive in order to wear it? Indigenous people who don’t care’s opinions don’t matter if every other indigenous person doesn’t approve too? Please explain.
Your ancestors look at you with shame and disappointment
@@mirahloste9477 No, his ancestors don't look at him like that because a) they know what a real indigenous headdress looks like and what it is made of and b) they would never seriously think of Richie's headdress (even the old one) as an indigenous headdress because it looks roughly similar in shape but has a different style and is made of completely different materials.
@@mirahloste9477 your ancestors would spit on you if they could see you here today. You bring your family shame.
Guys criticize real and true accusations not shit you make up to make him look worse, Adding false child abuse accusations discredits and makes it that much harder for real victims to get justice. False accusations cause real abuse victims to not be believed. Also why is it all of a sudden trendy to call people a groomer and a pedophile when you don't like them, You're literally spitting in the face of your cause. Call him what he is DO NOT make thing's worse for victims because you want to cancel someone. If you can't cancel them with things that are true than it looks like it's not gonna happen.
Literally people have taken accusations of shitty behaviour and extrapolated them into accusations of literal crimes and physical violence. Like if you hate him for being a shitty boyfriend just say that? Thats fine you're allowed to hate whoever you want but false accusations are toxic.
@@biitchstix it’s more than being a shitty boyfriend. He’s an abuser.
I still don’t understand why people watch his content..
@Yol Riin Lask He’s a clown.
@Yol Riin Lask Also kids love to forget about what kind of person he is.
We can’t even wear what we wants when it’s America.
No matter how much you hate someone(I'm pro Jaclyn, the end. But I don't hate Social) Lies could have a detrimental effect to someone's lively hood. People shouldn't be allowed to spread this kind of dangerous misinformation. I believe in truth is truth. Also I'd delete comments that accused me of horrible stuff I didn't do. Absolutely.
I agree wholeheartedly.
I love Jaclyn sure he was shitty with their relationship but I don't hate Richie. Cancel culture is fucking stupid.
Pro-jaclyn are the buttholes trolling Richie. Enter you pro-jaclyn.
@@Holy_Wraith lol okay. Only I don't bully and tell complete dangerous lies. Don't be so stupid and close minded.🤘
Jaclyn needs to make a video saying enough is enough to her fans and tell them to him alone. She wants a peaceful life so does he and shes a horrible person for letting this go on for so long
Some people just have nothing better to do. They're miserable and want to make others as miserable. Tune it out. Be you.
It is supremely messed up that people confuse you with Onision. Sure, you are forever linked, but it is in mortal combat.
@Xi Vonoc That's just a video game. The word is spelled combat otherwise.
This isn’t onision?
@Xi Vonoc okay hun
It doesnt help that when you search Onision, Social Repose literally pops up as well. I dont care for SR myself, but these tiktok comments are so stupid...
after this whole vid i still dont understand whats wrong with the headdress someone pls explain
At this point? Absoltely nothing. It USED to have a base that was very clearly inspired by indian headdresses. Far as I understand, those are sacred in their culture and not to be worn by anyone who hasn't earned it. It's kinda like slapping on a priests robe and declaring you are the pope even if you are not. just to use an extreme example. Even back then though if I remember correctly, he had it in different colors, so purple and black and all that. In real Headdresses i believe color and pattern are very important though and have specific meaning.
The current one doesn't have that base anymore. It's just something to wear on your head with feathers. But people automatically assume it must be cultural appropriation when in reality there are multitudes of cultures that traditionally used feathers as accessories. Brazilian carnival headdresses come to mind for example.
So long story short absolutely nothing is wrong with the headdress he wears now.
It sucks that there are people in the world who can not say a single nice thing. Sorry that that happened to you. On the plus side, I finally found a side of Tik Tok which I was searching for. Thanks to the video which went viral.
I can't like this video enough YOU TELL 'EM RICHIE!!
This is the most confident I've seen you standing up for your views on life, freedoms and creative liberty in a while, it's great to see!
You are an artist, take ownership and be proud of who you are! :)
Yeah be proud of being racist
@@FabricatedPheonix ... :(
Not here, we aren't racist one bit.. but we can all do our part to educate ourselves and understand the difference between racism, indulgence, and just plain costuming..
Personally, I'm not sure how you feel.. but as long as your heart is comes from a loving and respectful place, I don't see the harm in keeping these images and traditional pieces referenced in modern day..
As long as it is respectful that is.. just my personal opinion.. I have had these comments directed towards myself for art and pieces I have made, that were only made out of pure adoration simply because I am caucasian, and don't have any ties to the culture I was inspired by...
no hate, no arguments being sought after here..
sorry for the paragraph.. hope you have a good day/night!
@@syntheticaestheitc3325 he isn’t racist but he loves to cheat on his girlfriends
@@FabricatedPheonix calling someone racist for carrying something belonging to a culture they are not a part of ethnically or whatever is in itself racist.
@@adriananic8258 Please explain how. How is me, a white male, calling out another white male racist?
But... You just said that after speaking to ”many” indigenous people you came to the conclusion that you don’t give a shit about the headdress controversy and that you’re going to do what you want. So how is it then relevant to bring up that Lance appears to be speaking for all native Americans (which I don’t believe he was at all)? It seems really hypocritical to me. That cultural appropriation hurts is not something to have an opinion over, it is just facts. There are always going to be people belonging to a certain culture that don’t care about these things, but the fact that some do and are hurt by your actions should elicit some form of empathic response. Even if you were modelling your gear from WoW, you can’t deny that it still looks like a modified version of a native headdress. It seems pretty obvious that if it didn’t, people wouldn’t be commenting about it. You are really nit-picking the stuff you want to respond to and giving childish arguments, which makes it difficult for me to take you seriously. At this point I am inclined to believe that you are contiuing with this for clout.
but... its not cultural appropriation? his headdress is specifically designed to not hold any cultural significance, its themed after world of warcraft fictional monsters lmfao, either way you cant reduce a systemic issue down to "silly white man wearing a hat", richie wearing a hat with feathers on it isnt the problem here, the problem is systemic racism, lynchings, the new oil pipelines destroying native lands and polluting water sources, and cultural erasure
richies hat is the furthest thing from racism, it has nothing to do with natives and it never has, stop reducing the struggles of minorities to petty meaningless shit and focus your time on the real problems at hand, #stopindigenoushate
it’s not CA at all. he specially got it made to make sure it isn’t CA . clearly you’ve never watched his other videos explaining his HeadDress . it’s not hard to watch his other videos ma
I just discovered you recently (not through TikTok or anything like that, actually your cover of Control by Halsey) and think you're very talented. The headress doesn't bother me either. And actually I think your current one looks a lot like something Cher would have worn (I hope that's a compliment, it's intended as one). Not only that but showgirls have worn various feathered headdresses for years similar to your new one and I doubt they get as much crap as you seem to get. I say just keep doing what you're doing, put out great content, dress how you want and those of us who support you will continue to support you. You seem like a good enough person and don't have any bad intentions just based on the fact that you've made this video to try to clear the air. I love your videos, especially the acapella covers and would hate for stupid internet drama to take something like this away from us and from you. The internet (and especially social media) tends to be an echo chamber and a hive mind when it comes to stuff. If something is bad or they don't agree with it, they tend to all jump on it and swarm it without question. It's one of the reasons I pretty much stay off of social media and just bury myself in video games in my spare time. The internet has just become so toxic and it's bled out into real life as well. It's a damn shame.
You gave one of the best responses I have read in along time...Cheers from Canada.
I can't even imagine how it feels to have to deal with this daily. Sending positive thoughts your way. Just remember, a lot of famous artists had to deal with this. Unique, amazing, left of center people are just that- left of center. Creativity and beautiful art comes from the struggle. Keeping the dream alive!! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I think it’s crazy how people on CZcams are not aloud to make any mistakes without being cancelled. imagine if your life was filmed, think of all the things you’ve done in your life that you wouldn’t want people to see, do all those things make you the scum of the earth? More then likely not. How many of you have cheated on someone ( A LOT OF YOU), how many of you had toxic relationships where you didn’t respond as you should? And maybe now you’ve grown from that? It’s insane how people are cancelled based of their relationships. Do I get sad if someone I like and watch hurt someone else? Yes, but it doesn’t make me hate them and harass them. If I don’t like someone, I don’t comment. Period. And I don’t watch and I move on with my day. These people spewing lies about you are nuts. People don’t know how to think for themselves anymore. They’re afraid to have the “unpopular opinion”. Sorry you’re dealing with this 🥺
'I need to address something serious'
While dressed up like that
I just recently stumbled onto his content and what I have learned in my short time of looking at comments and videos he is an amazing and talented Creator his music is absolutely beautiful I have never heard of voice like his and his style is amazing as well and there are simply too many idiotic numbskull people who cannot appreciate him and it's their fault and their loss but to go to the point of calling him a pedophile and even worse simply because they have nothing better to do with their lives and simply because they don't understand it is pathetic and disgusting and truly shows where a lot of humanity Has Fallen it's truly sad
can we appreciate that he also plays devil's advocate for HIMSELF? he looks at his actions from all angles and analyzes everything and that's really respectable.

@@SarcasticHobo bruh this guy has done a buch of harriable stuff. just look up another video of him.
@@renandlen2 I found his videos about Corpse Husband.... I'm not watching this guy's content for that sole reason. At the same time, he doesn't need to be accused of a crime that could land him in prison, I don't wish that on anybody innocent regarding that crime. Throwing such accusations like an accessory is the reason groomed children such as myself don't get believed. That's where I stand regarding this guy.
are the still going for "it's native american inspired headdress"? I mean the one he had earl one sure was resembling one, but the current one looks more like a cursed vegas showgirl headpiece.
Exactly babe, its a caricature. That's kinda the problem. Things like black face or calling sports teams 'the Indians' and having mascots were never really meant to be accurate portrayals of those cultures or races - they're caricatures. And doing that leads to this - people being okay with using someone's culture (a culture that's been persecuted and marginalized for decades and still is today) as fashion. Critically thinking about issues - that I'm going to assume have never affected you - before posting an opinion on them is free, and I suggest you try it.
Lmfao such a perfectly accurate description
@@eliana2648sh isn't it like saying a cowboy hat is caricature of a pope tiara? He clearly stated what's inspiration of the new headpiece, it seem so far removed if at all connected, i don't think you can call it a "caricature" as it doesn't read at ll as native headdress. Also I would suggest you adressed me with respect and don't make silly assupmtions about me. If you want people to listen to you disrespecting them is not a good way to make them taking what you say seriously.
@@LookingForFrogs At what point will you realize how far your reaching to defend this man? Your opinion of if it resembles a headdress or not is irelevant, because countless indigenous people have said it does, and told him to stop. Also, not that it matters, but cowboys were a profession, not a race or a culture. And they were never marginalized and prosecuted because of it, unlike indigenous people who were and still are today. As for respect, its earned. And it's not earned by agreeing with and defending a racist colonizer. I own you nothing, not kindness, not patience, and certainly not respect.
@@eliana2648sh I'm not really reaching that far, as I don't know this man more than to know he is a cheater who had a fued with Onision - not particulary a person I would die defending.
And countless indigenous people told him it doesn't and that it's fine. Unfortunately people aren't monolith, no matter how much some activists want to impose same opinion to every person from a certain minority group.
" but cowboys were a profession" - not that it matters since my point was they are just two types of head accessiories that doesn't really resemble each other, not that it was ok for cowboy to steal design of pope's tiara. You completely misunderstood my point.
And this is exactly why people won't bother to try to understand your point, when if weren't treating them like this I bet many would try. But I guess you just are here to insult people to feel good about yourself, not to protect cultures that are opressed and educate people to make them do better.
all MY comment said was that a large spiky wig would have the same effect as a headdress and i got blocked…? LMAO
People hate being wrong, even if their is substantial evidence showing it. I find people who are clumping together are just sharing the negativity back and forth to echo what they want to hear.
It's a shame you even had to go here. You have a real musical talent and you've created a look. If I saw you anywhere, I'd know who you are. That's a good thing. I feel these people that are insulting you are children physicallyand mentally. When you grow into an adult your perception of people is less judgemental. Your mind is more mature and you understand people. I have complimented you before, just to get dragged also. I just laugh. I'm sure these folks that call you horrible names and accuse you of insanely sick deeds wouldn't do it to your or anyone's face.
Well, recently I've stumbled upon yar channel (through "I wanna be your sigma" short). Digged in into your past and Imma tell ya. Ya had one hell of shit goin on at some point in the past.

It’s odd how literally EVERYONE else on social media is allowed to express themselves in any way they want. But when it comes to you it’s like “nope, get the fuck out,” and it’s sad because you’re an extremely talented person. You’ve got a huge youtube channel and tiktok account, you’re a great musician, and you’re great at expressing yourself up front unfiltered. And i think that’s what people hate the most, is that you’re unfiltered with how you express yourself, and it’s funny when they get mad over stuff you’ve talked about COUNTLESS times.

You need to take legal action against these people defaming your name with their bs pedophilic accusations
I can't say I agree with everything you've said/done, and neither am I an indigenous person, but what I do like is the fact that you have altered your 'headdress' to make it your own, as well as to be less appropriating. In cases like this I don't think there is a right or wrong, I just think there is huge gray area. The problem is indigenous people are often treated like 2nd class citizens while elements of their cultures (as varied as they may be) are often used for entertainment and mockery... while the people themselves are forgotten about and ignored. If this were another world where indigenous people were regarded with more respect and reverence, you wouldn't be so heavily targeted for doing what you're doing. But that isn't the reality of it. I feel bad that this has happened to you, but to a degree, you make the choice to wear it... so you'll just have to continue dealing with the many opinions that go along with it.
Also I think that a lot of people that get offended for indigenous are couch activists... and I’m saying this as a POC. Instead of sitting comfy in Tiktok comments, why not go help a business started by Indigenous people? There are plenty of them. Support your local tribes or something. Spread awareness about missing Indigenous people and demand answers?
*edit: I realize this might contradict some things I’ve written… what I mean to say is I think all most people do when they see bad things happen to indigenous people is say ‘awww that sucks’, write a comment, and move on with their day. I think that truly caring and being ‘offended’ means actually doing something for indigenous people.
@@LadyBlueAzure The person who called him out on TikTok IS indigenous, actually.
@@DesireeCeleste Lol I know that, I wasn’t referring to him. I’m talking about the pissed off people in his comments.
Tbh the reason it’s highly offensive is because a headdress was something you earned within a tribe. It wasn’t freely given. It wouldn’t matter what happened to the tribes in the past, as it’d still have the same meaning behind it. He should throw away the headdress as it still is a headdress no matter how it’s colored or how it looks.
@@ClaymoreVision Yeah, I agree with you on that point… I suppose it wouldn’t matter what happened within the time frame because the headdress is still sacred. I guess I’m just trying to look at it from a broader perspective… but I suppose, at the end of the day, Richie should either stop complaining about the backlash or take it off. I do think it’s very arrogant (and entitled) of him to say ‘I think I’m right’ because this isn’t objective subject matter.
I found you on tik tok and didn't even know you had a CZcams channel. Regardless of whatever people say I'm a fan. You make me smile. Thanks for that.
I agree with everything you have said, exactly to the point! People should be individuals and I hope you don't ever change for others because thats what makes you awesome!
I don’t think you’re wrong at all, I 100% agree with you, wish I could’ve given my own input.

Oh my gawd. I am so sorry you’re getting such fucked up lies spread about you. That’s disturbing behavior from these TikTok users, and is targeted harassment IMO. I only know who you are because of what happened with your ex and how poorly you handled it, but I have kept an eye on you and am subscribed because I do believe you can absolutely create a strong redemption arc for yourself. I left a comment awhile back suggesting you start a new channel because that seems to work well for folks whose channels drastically declined. I want to see you succeed, and I wish you the best. I have that exact same sentiment for my exes who cheated on me.
You should make a tiktok clearing those accusations and explain that they are confusing you with onision.
Still patiently waiting for the Happier Then Ever acapella cover 😊
that hat looks more like something my great aunt doris would wear to ascot than a native american war bonnet tbh.
My great aunt would get drunk with your great aunt off of Bucks Fizz, lambrini and straight gin then leave the hat there.
@@jenniferdean2095 lol, add in some prosecco and she would be in.
Well I've just found you and now spent all evening watching your stuff past and everything and I think your great, everyone has done some crappy stuff. I'm very much enjoying finding you and I am a fan, you are so honest and intelligent. Appears you've come so far too. Plus adore your music, I will be perusing through next few days!
Dude just keep doing what you do. Stans and keyboard warriors will screech into the void that is our collective disdain for their ilk. Also editing to add that it absolutely IS about control for them. When I was part of their group think I used to vehemently attack people that I thought strayed from what I thought was right and so tried hard to get them to agree with my way. So glad I've distanced myself from them
I know one thing that he keeps doing, cheating on every girlfriend he’s ever had 😂
If that's what he's gonna do then it is what it is
I’ve been trying to correct the lies that are said on your TT but, GD!!!!! They are relentless!!! I mean, all it takes is a lil research & one will find the truth easily. I was amazed how these folks just came at you! Anyway, I’m becoming a “huge” fan now. 🖤💜
I wonder if that, 'hey colonizer', dude realizes that his ancestors came over from Asia.
You have an amazing voice tbh and I personally applaud you for being who you want to be. People suck. I'll keep watching and listening I dig your style personally . Keep on singing
Richie you are awesome!! You made mistakes when you were younger we all do... People who live in glass houses should not throw stones... None of those people should be judging you like they have been the past three years.
When you went on the motivational poster thing I really needed that….I’ve had people tell me that I need to do things to make them happy and not myself. It’s hard trying to learn what makes you YOU and then them. I have followed you for a very long time and I love you’re music and your kitty Scorn ❤️ keep doing good things Ritchie.
TikTok has such a toxic community. Short videos, vicious cancellation cycle, they love nothing more than to find a new account to report until it’s deleted. The app itself does not manage its user’s activity well at all. But if you’re makin money over there, keep going and have fun.
I like the headdress dammit. I’m part Native American. Good job dude!
The heck with the crazies.
This is just insane 🤦🏼♀️
Well thought out and researched.....and so well spoken. Great video
Honestly this genre of content is usually not my thing. But I find you captivating. Took me a bit but I have subscribed due to the very obvious hard work. As well as the clear intellect you posses.
The problem is, while some people actually got brains and use them, others literally got a sponge for a brain and just jump on the bandwagon.
I can 100% say people don't think for themselves as much as they used to, these days.
One of my favorite things about you is your tenacity and stubbornness, so I really loved this video. I have enjoyed seeing your growth and the evolution of the headdress. Keep doing what you’re doing, friend.

Your originality is amazing. On a separate note, the most beautiful thing you can be is... yourself. Which you are being so no one can ask anything more of you. What your already giving is enough and it shows that you are an artist with pure talent and creativity. Your the only one brave enough to come up with this idea so rock it. You keep rocking your look. You own it. You hard efforts into dressing up into who you want to be and who you are shows. Don't let anyone ever bring you down. The stage is all yours. This is your platform. Haters will be hateful and negative towards a person they don't know in real life. That's their problem. Not yours..... the attitude you are giving is the attitude you should be having. Your a star. They are jealous. What else more can I say?
I wish this could have been a celebration of your success. Instead you have to defend yourself against baseless, heinous, accusations.
I respect and support you.
Hey man, I think you're pretty cool. Keep on keeping on
Some people carry around a lot of self loathing/hate and it seems to make them feel better if they can find or create negative things in the things around them whether it's real or not. Also, I've always thought your costume and makeup looked really cool.
im part native american my grandmother was full blood and my great grand mother was full blood as well. that headdress is not even close to anything my ansectors wore most native amaricans did not wear headdress's. i love it and the only people that are attacking over the headdress is people that are un educated and are just social justest worriers that dont do research and just listen to their leaders. if you were wearing a traditional headderss we would not have an issue with it as long as you know the meaning of the one your wearing and were respectful of it.
Probably because most people on tiktok are in highschool or younger. 😂 I’m sorry tho you have to go through this. You don’t deserve the hate.
He deserves all the hate
@@sam2chill why?
@@2FigureTony he’s cheated on like 4 different girls
@@sam2chill and? Is this your Business?
@@powermurmel it doesn’t have to be my business 💀 he is a disgusting person and deserves hate
You don’t deserve the hate that you get. I don’t understand the need that people have to tell lies about you. No one is perfect and we all make mistakes. You’ve been honest and have apologized and from what I’ve seen you’ve grown as a person. Why people can’t see this is beyond me. Stay strong and know you have people who support you. Not everyone hates you
Your message is as important as ever even to this day, I hope you're doing well and continue to be authentic to yourself.
You shouldn't have to explain your artistic aesthetic to these trolls. They deserve no acknowledgement whatsoever.🖤
Reminds me of when I was in highschool and I showed up wearing Wranglers, just cuz the pants fit me, and some "kicker" came up to me accusing me of something along the lines of I'm not allowed to wear 'their' jeans. I was Alt Rock anyway at heart, so it was really stupid. This was 1997.
Dang how old is scorn now? such a sweet baby. Loved this video more than I thought I would lol. Good motivational speaking guess I just needed it randomly today 👍🏻
Aw… “if you’re thinking of leaving, you should” was always my favorite outro
I will protect mother moth at all costs.
Elaborate headdresses (many feathered in some way) have been worn by so many different cultures worldwide. Very commonly associated with feathered headdress are indigenous people. I do not mean native Americans specifically, I mean indigenous people as a broad grouping. Almost every single group of indigenous people in the world wore some type of headdress in ceremonial traditions and many of them had feather, plant and bone adornments. Yes, even in Europe. You know… The indigenous white people that existed no matter how much people want to pretend they didn’t.
In fact, a meaningful and ceremonial type of headdress is still used today in the Caribbean for Carnival. The festival originated with Italian Catholics and then spread to the French and Spanish. Carnival traditions were restricted to European settlers at first so Caribbean people took the European carnival traditions (which were religious mind you) and started their own carnival. The Caribbean Carnival traditions exist because they appropriated European religious culture, but it’s okay because of the slavery and colonizing. (I genuinely believe it to be fine regardless of those things. People saw things they then wanted to incorporate into their own celebrations and it turned into culture and tradition for them.)
I’m going to get so much hate for this. But I really don’t put much weight behind the cultural appropriation for offense arguments. Everyone has ancestry, history and culture and many of them cross and bleed. As long as you are not directly mocking or deliberately and solely profiting off someone else’s culture that is not your own, I just don’t see how it is offensive to wear things like a black, gothic, feathered head piece that has no direct relation to a specific ceremonial item of another culture.
That outro song is such a bop. It always gets stuck in my head 🙌
Honestly, your new headpiece makes me think of a goth Las Vegas showgirl 🤔. In all seriousness though, it's incredibly irresponsible for people to pin Onison's crimes on you without fact checking. And then others just go along with it 🤦♀️. I've followed you for a long time and you're not perfect, but you don't deserve 95% of the comments in this video.
Listen guys.. he wants to wear a headdress made for war... let's take him to war
ok ik im late to this but i think its cool to wear a headdress.. theres nothing wrong with wearing it.. i say its like a fashion design btw i love your look.
I’m sorry this happens to you or ANYONE on TikTok 😞 Most of the ppl commenting haven’t watched for years. You take it in a good way, keep you head dress high 😆
He needs to take the Headdress off 🤬. My people’s heritage isn’t a costume🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
@@MyInsaneWorldOfBeauty I have Chickasaw heritage and I think it’s just fine 😉
I think its mostly ppl who've never watched or been fans. They just enjoy being part of the action. When he says, " scares me that these comments gain traction" That traction is attractive to nobodies. It makes them feel like their being noticed
I love your work. Keep it up Richie
You're such a talented person, expressively artistic. Continue inspiring people with your talent ❤
Being a white person my opinion on the head dress is mute but I genuinly do agree. It's very far from a native headdress, and it's similar to the locks/dreadlock arguement.
Bro I've been following you for years and when I saw you on tik tok I got excited and then I heard about this I was like for real guys social repose has alot of creativity its the ones that get mad for people doing something "offensive" that judge the hardest... hey bro keep doing what your doing.
So you’re telling him to stay being racist? /gen
Your not wrong. I hope today's kids (and immature adults) grow out of this mob mentality one day. If there was a master off switch for all social media that could shut it all down for a few days... I think everyone would be better off.
I love how you fanboys are completely forgetting that he was cheating on his girlfriend and using the heartbreak for views
4:25 were friends now
I thought this was the next Alien movie trailer.
I agree man it's a lot of bullshit. I get hate for making tic tocks as well bc im military and people are judgemental
