I have worked very hard over the past several years
to cultivate an overtly positive and constructive environment
in my comment section under all my videos,
and I'm proud to say I think I've succeeded.
Everybody here is really kind and,
and welcoming.
It's pretty rare that I get a negative comment like this,
but when I do, I have a rule that I have self imposed, uh,
that I came up with, um,
which is that, um,
if you would, please, Lauren,
and you don't have to, but if you would like to,
I'd really like it if you would follow my account.
I would like you to stay here,
I would like you to stick around.
Um, I want you to be a part of things.
I wanna, I wanna see you in my comments again.
I don't care if it's negative,
I really don't. I,
I just like the idea of knowing that you're here.
And here's why I came up with that rule.
There are many people in the world,
in America, that cannot stand me.
They can't stomach the idea of me. Um,
and, and I am not welcome at their table.
I could not break bread with them.
I, I cannot commune with them.
They would, some of them even wish ill on me,
I think, because of who I am.
And I can't change that. And that's okay,
you know, everybody believes what they believe,
but I feel very strongly it is one Of my core tenants.
That if I want a place at your table,
it is only fair that you know that you have a place at my table.
And that is why I want you to be here.
I want you to be here, because I,
I, I very genuinely mean that, uh,
you are welcome here. And I think if you were to stay,
if you were to comment on this video,
I promise you, I promise you,
no matter what you say,
my followers will welcome you.
You here, because it, it's,
it's such a positive space,
and everybody I like, give, try,
just try. Stick around,
be here, sit at my table.
I'm literally at a table making this,
and I'd. I'd really love it if you did, Lauren.
