Erik & the way he was visibly uncomfortable with the microphone

I hate how people try to act like this was something cute that he did. I feel it was so obvious he was so uncomfortable with the shape of the microphone and how close it was to his mouth for obvious reasons & everyone on tiktok is like “awww he’s so cute and shy” it disgusts me. When the microphone was changed to a diff shape you can tell how much easier it is for him. This is a random point but i noticed it and all the comments were about how “shy” he is, like no he is traumatized and visibly so uncomfortable. has anyone else noticed this?
