General thread dedicated to meta discussion of the happening.

I think the most important meta aspect of the recent happening that seems to be completely overlooked is the composition of the opposing forces of this conflict. Even people who are vaguely familiar with the topic know that Dokibird managed to conscript a sizeable force of midwit whiteknights who responded to her pity calls. The numerical advantage is clearly on her side and while her forces are uncoordinated and frankly retarded, it does seem that they managed to put the forces of NijiEN on their back foot right now.

Speaking of the allied NijiEN forces it seems that their strategy was to enlist a lot of highly specialized dramawhore mercenary squads. While their efficiency is brutal the queen bee of NijiEN is probably unsettled about the shaky allegiance of her forces. It seems that the dramawhore mercenaries fight only for the delicious nectar of drama and their interest lies in prolonging and further escalating the conflict so it yields more of the aforementioned nectar. In any other circumstances queen Elira would probably be opposed to having those forces defend her, but with the situation as desperate as this she is forced to accept their help.

However there is a new train of thought emerging from some of the experts on the sidelines. What if... at least part of the dramawhore mercenaries have joined the Dokibird side to organize the rabid retarded rabble? What if the natural support for Dokibird in this ruthless war for superchats, pity and attention would have been much lower if the dramawhores didn't play both sides?
