Hi, everyone
Suppose that someone wants to tweet that people are being unfair to a certain girl by shaming her online because of a video.
Which of these sentences is correct? (there’s some slang in them because these would be said on Twitter)
“Seriously though/ For real, though/ Straight up, EVERYONE who didn’t see the full video has no idea how wrong all this IS that you are doing to this poor girl!”
“Seriously though/ For real, though/ Straight up, WHOEVER didn’t see the full video has no idea how wrong all this IS that you are doing to this poor girl!”
“Seriously though/ For real, though/ Straight up, EVERYONE who didn’t see the full video has no idea how wrong all this that you are doing to this poor girl IS!”
Seriously though/ For real, though/ Straight up, WHOEVER didn’t see the full video has no idea how wrong all this that you are doing to this poor girl IS!”
Which sentence is correct? And could you say either “seriously, though”, “for real, though” or “straight up”?
Thank you very much!!!

The most natural sounding sentence to me is:
For real, though, anyone who hasn't seen the full video has no idea how wrong everything you're doing to this poor girl is! (or 'how wrong it is what you're doing to this poor girl', but this sounds awkward)
My next choice after 'anyone who' would be 'whoever', and 'everyone' doesn't sound natural, but is understandable.
I would need some more context on the video, because 'didn't see' means the video is no longer available / has been removed by Twitter, while 'hasn't seen' means the video is still available and those who haven't seen it could still find and watch it.
All three phrases you use at the beginning of the sentence are great for informal speech in this context!

I would say "Seriously though" and use the second version of the sentence.
