This is NOT a good person, and the proof is out there. People wanted to support this person because they're 'trans and a minority' yada yada, but she is a PRIME example of that being a BAD reason to support somebody. People need to be supported based on merit, not identity. And to call somebody transphobic because they're CRITICAL of you as a PERSON (nothing to do with trans) is the height of insanity and deflection.
god i cringe so hard whenever anyone uses their minority as a shield to do whatever the fck they want. it discredits all real trans people and makes people who actually face real issues afraid to talk about it because people will just cry that its fake or attention seeking.
@@goldencoin9670 this. As a trans person, its like Aydreinn said, people like this are doing so much damage to the community, and they deserve to be held accountable for both that and their other actions. I mean, if someone is going to use people like Jane as a justification to hate *all of us* rather than just judging her as an individual, they were clearly bigoted to begin with, but that's no reason to give them more ammo. I'm so tired. I literally just want to exist and be evaluated based on my actions and personality like any other person, without my gender factoring into it, and I hate people being able to use shit like this as a reason to hate me without even getting to know me first or taking the time to consider that we don't all think the same.
I'm in a discord server with a bunch of people who believe theyre genuinely characters from various media (I'm honestly in the server just for a friend). they'll talk about how they miss their 'friends' (other characters from the same media) and their 'memories' from the media and they all have in their bios 'if you're a double of me, don't interact with me'. they constantly say they aren't delusional but they very clearly are and I don't mean that with malice.
@@scurbbb "If you're a double of me, don't interact" - this made me crack up. Imagine making spongebob your online persona and being pissed at seeing any other people interacting online as if they were spongebob
I think Jane needs more time away from the internet, not just Twitter, but social media as a whole. She should take a break from DbD, maybe get a therapist or someone else professional who can help her because this is not normal in the slightest. Identifying this hard with a ficticious character isn't good because she's forgetting who she is. Sometimes it even seems like she forgets that there are real people behind the screens.
no to be honest i dont think its necessarily her behaviour or mental state. its impossible to tell cause from effect. (effect: toxic. cause: --> jealousy? --> personal dislike of comp gameplay in pub? --> etc.)
How can this person have anyone in their life or any friendship in general when they are this toxic and narcissistic like fr!? I was getting triggered just watching their back and forth. Jane is just like my ex. Always right, always the "victim", always lying.
@@grandma650 That honestly makes a lot of sense too. Their whole identity and life is online, they become something else, they even lose their own basic identity. It actually reminds me of a woman I knew who lived 24/7 online, made up her life fully, she even made up a daughter and friend (created fake accounts with them on Facebook and such, then she made them all interact together pretending they were a close family and close friends), it was just sad to witness. But at least, she was a lovely and nice person, unlike Jane who apparently heard the saying "You can be anything you want on the Internet !" and decided to be a giant AH.
Laser handled this so well, it all bounced off him like rubber and he sent it right back 😂 Jane got slapped in the face hard with a vibe check and melted down
I’ve known narcissistic people like her and they’re always hostile & play victim and do whatever it takes to put the heat on you instead of them because they refuse to acknowledge they’re in the wrong. Ever. I can’t imagine-as a trans guy-ever using the ‘transphobic’ accusation to get out of something bad I did and not take accountability. People like her make a mockery out of queer people and put us in such a bad light. Thanks for talking about this!
Also trans guy here - I just hate persons like this. someone acts like an asshole and get called out and use a: Ohhh you are racist/sexist/homophob/transphob etc card... like NO you are just an asshole, acting like an asshole
Honestly it'd be fair if she finally got more backlash after the fucking 10 billionth time she's been doing this shit it's like almost everyone i know of has had beef with fucking jane romero from twitter and it's always same scheme with the gaslighting and the transphobia accusation out of absolutely nowhere like i don't even understand how it's possible to act like that and not question yourself even once lmao
Agree. The community needs to ignore her now. She wants these interactions. She never even took a break from online. Most don't know of all her second accounts even her twitch one
@@dumblenutz5561 They jokenly trashed talked in a 1v1 none of it was to the player but the killer, idk your age but that would be the same talk you get picking shotguns in halo 1. Yes very chill Jane tossed very false claims to him personally and not once did he ever get mad upset or angry but if you wanting to find a reason i am sure you can make the same mental gymnastics and come up with one.
It seems like to me Jane is an abuser. It's the same type of situation you often see in domestic abuse. Where the abuser acts out but then apologizes, then does it all over again. Only in an online space. People who use this method of abuse often think that they can just apologize and everything will be OK, often not actually taking the time to self reflect on their actions and the harm it's caused. They might even say like Jane has that they need to step away to re-evaluate but that is just to appease the masses. When in reality they just want everyone to forgive them. It will honestly happen over and over until someone manages to point out and get through to Jane that this is what she is doing or people stop forgiving her, which probably won't happen.
It’s so funny how she drops Bamboozle into her three-gen build and play style and claims she’s so different and a beacon of positivity when in reality she uses a character that the devs refuse to tone down because they need to sell her and give the bad players a chance to win games and maintain numbers; but you can never tell her that or she’ll lose whatever is left of her mind.
@@skelesamu_6576 Yeah, I remember last time they reworked her and how "well" it ended... I also remember how they said they even want to rework the "3-gening system" because of her when the issue is the killer (and Knight) in combo with gen perks/addons, not the basic 3-gens strat. I'll keep my hopes low this way I cannot be disappointed again.
I love what you do here. I don't really use Twitter (only for dbd updates) and I'd see Janes account quite frequently. This and the previous vid from a month ago really showed me what shes like and why people had/have an issue with her. I appreciate the good work!
What I find really funny is that I know people who have gone up against Jane Romero when they are playing killer and they DO force 3 gens as Skull Merchant, but they will complain about you sweating as killer if they are playing survivor.
I feel like Jane needs to just step away from pvp games in general. She can’t self reflect because there’s another person involved she can blame rather than look at her mistakes. She’s kinda feeding herself the toxicity and it’s clearly taking a huge toll on her. I’m not excusing her actions because there is no excuse, but she needs to get offline and find some help. I guarantee the transphobia she’s more likely than not receiving online from this bs isn’t helping and rather reinforcing the mindset she’s put herself into. It’s all just really sad
I like the way you speak and present this video, very clear and concise. I also appreciate you pointing out to use her correct pronouns (she/her) and bringing up the topic of someone's gender identity's having nothing to do with their shitty actions or them being shitty people.
tbh something abt her has always rubbed me the wrong way. she gives “mean girl trying to be fake nice” energy or those girls that wear the evil eye while being the most vile person lmao. after that drama with her a month or so back i noticed she always tries to spin ppl calling out her behavior as transphobic. like most ppl calling her out are respectful of her pronouns, like fuck dude it’s literally her personality that’s problematic but she just refuses to acknowledge this and cries that ppl don’t like her bc she’s trans when that’s not the case. it’s clear she has a huge chip on her shoulder and gets extremely angry when ppl aren’t “yes men” to her. she really needs to stay off social media bc clearly she isn’t mentally built for it atm. side note if ur getting that angry at a video game u need a break fr. that’s not enjoyable content to sit there and attack someone over a fucking game as a grown ass adult. esp bc she promotes herself as being this “positive” person. hate to break it but if u need to tell ppl ur a good, nice, positive, person; you aren’t.

damn, this reminds me of a time when I was sweating my ass of with blight (to get better at him, comp wannabe mindset etc) I played against her and I knew it was her cuz of (ofc Jane character) and trans flag and anon mode. Holy shit I 4k'd them at 5 gens and she litteraly had a breakdown, typing shit like "this game is in the worst state possible";"how should I play with ppl like that", basically salty crying over pub game. BUT, like 2 weeks prior or more? I was chilling pubs on wesker and I played against her, noticed that only cuz of her pointing at trans flag at my hook, we exchanged nods and I gave her a hatch and after that she was really sweet and warming and chill (even gave me +rep xDD) But idk.. it really shows how she treats that game and trans things, and its alarming xdd MAN it fucking triggers me how she is weaponizing "transphobia" while ppl facing real transphobia are getting shittalked, litteraly cuz of ppl like her, its fucking disguisting
I like how Jane starts the shit talking before accusing Laser of toxicity. I swear this isn't even just a Jane thing, half the players in this game just lack the ability to self reflect on how poorly they played or how well they got outplayed, and just resort to cope. "You're bad even tho you beat me because you got unfair hits, and you had a better spawn, and you did the thing I did in chase to make my chase easier, and also you're toxic and transphobic" It's just someone continually moving goalposts to try and win an argument when she could have just fucked off to the next game and had a better night without making a fool of herself. She needs to take an extended break from DBD. I get booty blasted at DBD all the time, but I do my damndest to not put it on others, even if I'm super salty. When I can tell I'm just continually getting super pissed, it's time to move on to another activity.
It's not even half the DBD community. It's how like 75% of highly active social media users behave like overall. Take out DBD. A huge chunk of the Internet behaves just like Jane
Nah. Being called "transphobic" isn't the death blow people act like it is. At least, not anymore. Too many people on that side of the isle like to use "transphobic" as the fall back for when they can't win a debate or literally anyone disagrees with them. It's been thrown around so much, most people don't take it as the "career killer" they want it to be. It's just a bunch of eye rolling and people thinking "look, someone can't take criticism".
@@ikeasharkisreal Its a sad reality that the entire trans community is at times getting dragged through the mud by a few bad eggs. And then people who are opposed to trans rights use those as an example for why "omg they're all bad!!11!" :/
@@pineapplepizzasandwich1974 yeah definitely, the dumbasses from our community are the very loud minority and it's gotten us a bad rep. why does this jane person think they're entitled to everything just because they're trans? lol some people are insane
@@ikeasharkisreal The really sad thing is, because of uber woke extremists, history will show that, when the culture got on their side, they abused their newfound power. Don't 100% agree with them? Be labeled as transphobic. Get fired from your job. Lose your friends. Get ostracized on social media. Be told by others what to do with your children. Not good for their cause, I'd say. You have people running around, calling themselves "non-binary" to leech attention from this sexuality trend, while real trans people, who actually went through hell to transition, to be who they feel truly are, catch the backlash from these people. It's sad. I feel for your cause, as I hope you've found some peace within yourself in the midst of all this woke madness.
@@RevolverR0ninyeah definitely.. some people not only want attention but they also need an excuse to ruin other people's lives just because theirs is miserable. i hope you haven't experienced anything you listed and if you did i genuienly apologize on their behalf, i tend to stay away from those people lmao. this jane person, at least to me, seems to have no other personality traits besides being transgender
9:52 you hit the nail on the head when it comes to alot of peoples problems when it comes to Jane. She uses her status as a trans woman as a cudgel against people who even moderately disagree with her takes. I hate to say it too but I put partial blame on the community as a whole because most people in it seem to enable Jane in acting this way. There were big content creators who defended and even indulged her negative behavior during the whole "crazy" debacle. It's like you said one bad apple doesn't spoil the whole bunch, and Jane needs to be held accountable when shes wrong.
People with narcissism struggle with taking accountability and fail to see things from any perspective but their own. Hope they are able to get professional help.
She used to play on the dead by daylight comunity discord server where everytime at any given time i joined to search for a swf to play at least once i would seen her name across the tab. She acted the same back than but who cared.
Very glad I have that content creator and all the people in her circle blocked. 😭 Jane and the rest of “DBD stan Twitter” are truly insufferable people that will harass people and create hate campaigns for the littlest things.
Unsurprising considering the constant drama. This person also sadly believes to literally be said video game characters on a very deep and strange level. So far as to ask to be referred to said names depending on the "era" that is being started. Like when SM got released.. went from Jane to Adriana, then back to Jane.
The first time you can feel bad cause maybe they arent in the right headspace. But this is unacceptable behavior from her and is truly hurting the Lgbtq+ community with her actions. Hopefully someone important to her gives yer a wake up call cause aint no way is she gonna better herself at all
I never liked this twitter user from the moment I discovered them. Something was always off about them. Probably the fact that they're skinwalking a fictional character and it's beyond creepy.
it's crazy how one person can singlehandedly devalue the term "transphobic" in a matter of minutes she's a terrible representation of any community she is a part of, and i especially feel bad when she's somebody's first interaction with a trans individual because... that's a really difficult first impression to overcome. thankfully the dbd community has a lot of LGBTQ+ folk to widen the perspective and shake any ignorance in an actual positive way
She needs to step away from the internet. I get having a fragile mental state but she does indeed need help, and this game seems to only be making life worse for her. Remember when she faced backlash and said she was taking a break, and was gone for only a handful of days? True healing doesnt happen overnight and I hope she really stops using twitter and social media so much. I pray for her to get the help she needs and maybe one day after she proves she has changed, she could try content creation again.
I found this video after I've just seen Otz promote Jane in his video. I was appalled. She is very clearly a bad person, the proof is everywhere. He really should not give her the spotlight. Your video was excellent.
I imagine Otz didn't know about this until now tbh, probably thought that Jane was a extremely good trans DBD player who deserved to be given a platform because she was so good at a Killer. And because she was trans, she could inspire others and promote diversity... But well, it's obvious that Jane won't be inspiring anyone now. I wonder what Otz thinks about her nowadays?
I feel like I need to step up in live-streaming and content creation because I could be a “better transgender representation” after watching some of these videos 😕. But i probably wouldn’t succeed or get anywhere so, I don’t know if I’ll bother.
this is someone that im sure is a good person deep down, but has no friends or life outside of dbd. im saying this unironically that they need to go outside and find meaningful human relations
Jane's behavior is why I don't have twitter/instagram/tiktok and i deleted my Facebook and reddit How she behaves is how I see A LOT of people on social media behave. Projection, hostility from the get go, lying and taking people out of context, gaslighting and playing victim. It's pathetic but that's what i see so often on social media. Jane is just an example of it.
They will label you as a transphobe or that you enable transphobia for criticism against her. Had people tell me to go off myself bc i said she isnt a good person
Another thing; I also main Jane and killers sometimes tunnel because they associate us with this person. She has forever tarnished the reputation of this character 😢
There was no honor in that 1V1. That’s why I don’t do that shi no more. Too many delusional ppl who have no respect, or honor. Besides unless you pick certain maps RNG can screw you.
This is why I've been saying to think critically about how you try to alter your personality and behavior towards others. If you're a "trans" individual, great!, I wish you all the best with your life choices and hope you find happiness, much the same way I would wish happiness and joy on anyone and everyone else. But if being "trans" is the only "redeeming quality" you focus on yourself and you push on others...you're just looking for attention and trying to make others out to be villains in your "main character story." Just because someone beats you in a video game doesn't mean "OMG you're transphobic!" Or "OMG you're racist for killing me!" The level of entitlement and scapegoating your own problems to elevate yourself to somehow be on some grandiose high horse is...absolutely amazing and flabberghasting. How do people fall prey and victim to suffocating around these pompous and arrogant "cloud chasers?" Everyone has to be a White Knight? Being "trans" doesn't absolve you from criticism and being subjected to the same judgment as anyone else in all of mankind. And during this exchange between Laser and Jane, every single thing she projected upon him...is basically just an admission of guilt (politics have entered DbD???).
Here's the thing about trans activism (from someone who's incredibly vocal about trans and LGBT+ rights): There is absolutely nothing wrong with spreading trans positivity in a video game, sometimes it's especially good for telling off bad-acts who want to act like they're welcome; be the bar tender that kicks those people out of their booths and make the others feel welcome and safe in their restaurant. But don't be so paranoid over every slightly negative interaction, only the most obvious ones. Trust me, I've been addicted to Twitter, I was like that two years ago. I only really caused more harm jumping to extreme conclusions. I know the beef has been squashed between the two here, but like, Jane needs to seriously self-reflect more before she has another outburst like this. It's understandable that people mess up and I understand that emotions are high particularly for people within the trans community with the constant bad-hands they are dealt with on a day to day basis, so much so that it's obvious the house is against them (again, coming from someone who fits into the trans label for being gender-fluid). But to go into a very familiar pattern of tirades within barely two months of each other after claiming to have "reflected" is concerning. She needs to remember what image she's promoting, and I'm not saying she needs to have a perfect image because she's trans (again, no one person on Earth is perfect), but because she's a vocal activist for this stuff, campaigning for a better environment for the trans DBD community. The pattern of blaming and gaslighting because she thinks a completely unrelated action or a simple misunderstanding is transphobic, like you said, actively harms that cause. On one final note, I think it’s fine identifying through a fictional character; if a character is relatable enough to you, that’s fair. Hell, I’m not afraid to admit I identify through Claudette, Steve, and Hillbilly for differing reasons each, but I understand someone not liking to go against either of the characters for whatever reason isn’t a reflection on myself, rather game-balance, game interactions or both (except admittedly, I have it really easy when a majority of players wants to go against/with a Steve or Hillbilly). I just find it really ironic that Jane takes someone hating Skull Merchant personally when she could have been looking through the eyes of Laser at that moment when he played as Nurse, another killer that people hate going against, that even SHE hated going against.
8:28 this isn't the first time she pulled a "you're transphobic" move before. I remember she had beef with hens because he used "bro" when he was talking to her (keep in mind he was using it unisexually), and she got super mad about that and brought the drama to twitter. It got handled in like an hour but she can be quite petty for minute stuff like that
I don't know how one person can ruin a character so bad for me and my favorite perk Any Means like come on. But seriously this is the type of person that just resorts to nothing but hypocrisy and false accusations and hopes the terror that is Twitter is able to defend them on every stupid thing they say or do when in all reality even Twitter ain't gonna be too happy.
As someone who used to follow her for her positive mindset in the DBD community, she changed A LOT. I am not sure what made her take that turn but I had to unfollow and remove myself from her circle. She has played the victim a lot and especially after unnecessary callouts on people, she can't handle it when people disagrees with her. It's very sad. I think she needs to disassociate herself with the community as a whole as clearly it's not good for her mental health.
I was following her and liked some replies about her needing help and apparently she is going through each of her followers profiles, looking at their likes, and blocking them. This is so obsessive--I never said one thing to her on Twitter and going through a stranger's likes is borderline insanity.
I can’t wait until skull merchants gets her rework that way people will stop insulting the killer. I hate how everyone has to bash her. And i also hate how we get jerks who main her that make her reputation worse
I was one of those people that supported her but once I saw who she really is and how she gaslights people so savagely I unfollowed and left her community behind.
Ive only had one experience with Jane. It was good. She was wholesome and chatted for a while. But my god the stuff I have her say on twitter is insane. Hope she turns it around because the community as a whole is bad enough. We dont need people that take away the meaning of what transphobia really means
This "Jane Romero" got flicked in pubs by my Bubba and she couldn't admit that I just played good in certain situation and she blamed "my net connection" xD Also she was angry on me bcs I used word "bro" in post game chat xD (I didn't even know who is she)
