Recently, a certain member from the bass community
has been accusing us of a lot of things.
We found this video, and it's called...
I'm tired of being falsely accused.
- I don't know about you. - Yeah.
Let's see what this person wants to say.
I really need to talk about an issue
that has been going on for a long time,
and it's about these two YouTubers.
I wanted to open my mind to new instruments,
but since when I bought a new violin,
they have been bullying me non-stop.
They sent threats online, they even stalked me in real life.
And the main reason why they don't like me,
is that I treat all my instruments equally.
If I can do this on bass...
...I will do the same on violin.
- Oof. - Ooh!
OOH!!!
Look, it's not about treating instruments equally,
it's about first getting consent.
Violin-chan did not consent to your abuse...
...and harassment.
Maybe your bass, you guys are homies,
he doesn't mind you slapping him every now and then,
but you have to gain consent.
If violin is weaker, it's not my fault.
I don't discriminate my instruments,
and they're all equal to me.
The violin is not weaker.
At least we don't need an amp!
(both) OOHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
It's been brought to my attention, some weeks ago,
they made this video.
And in this video, you can see him, I think his name is Brett.
Pretending to be one of my Italian ancestors, Paganini.
Check it out.
Buongiorno!
It's a-me, a-Paganini.
I only know the fettuccine, and the spaghetti.
Never heard of the Lamborghini.
As a real Italian, I find this extremely racist, and I'm offended.
He's mispronouncing so many Italian words,
it's actually painful.
That wasn't Brett, that was Paganini!
Paganini is Italian!
And he was holding a Stradivari, which is an Italian violin!
Yeah!
Look!
Davie, I see what you're trying to do here,
but all of this, is just a big distraction,
from the fact that you still have not freed Violin-chan.
We will never forget!
Instrument violence and abuse is not okay!
It's not about treating all instruments equally...bad.
It's about respecting each instrument.
Bass gang, I can't take this anymore.
We need to stop them.
They really went too far.
Go on their subreddit, and let them know,
we are not going to allow this behaviour anymore.
Let them know that bass is better.
Do it for me.
So he's trying to take it to r/lingling40hrs.
Well, let's see.
And then a photo.
I'm so confused!
The top half is the back of the arms.
- Oh yeah! - The bottom half is the front of the legs.
I think bass gang is a bit confused.
"Bass, is better than violin."
Oh, bass is celebrating for us!
- Oh yeah, four million subscribers! - Thank you, bass gang!
(both) Grazie!
Damn.
Piano does have bass and treble.
But they can't crescendo.
(both) OHHHHHHHHHH!
- Yeah, that's right! Ohh, so close! - Almost got us there, oh, whoo!
Let me just try.
(Brett) Wow, it actually works!
(Brett) Its standing on its own!
"Bass is better than violin."
I think that's fake news,
I don't think Davie smiles like that.
Are these Blinks?
Are these the 12-year-old Blinks again?
Or are these like bass gang? I'm confused.
So they infiltrate?
Look.
Davie, this is what happens,
when you use your platform to promote instrument violence.
Not all, but a small group of bass gang,
seem to have resorted to rather personal insults,
in order to try and bring us down.
But, you seem to have underestimated
the r/lingling40hrs community,
because we're much more cultured than that.
Tuh-tuh!
I realise it's very easy to talk a big game.
Why don't we settle this face-to-face,
once and for all, in a real life music battle!
And if we win, you must free Violin-chan.
And if we lose?
We won't lose.
We'll give you a few days to respond.
And if you don't respond,
we will take this as you admitting that you're all talk,
and you realise that in a real life music battle,
the bass simply cannot win against the violin.
Do you accept?
Or are you going to run away?
