Like what? Since I'm far from Tumblr, I only heard about it from a friend, and I'm totally disgusted. It was on Em's page and frankly it's just for show. The girl's still trying to surf, saying my god I fell, as if she's a fucking 2-year-old who doesn't understand right from wrong. Racism and Xenophobia aren't mistakes, they're choices, and if you hang out with people who are obviously like that, it's because you obviously think like them.
I'm a black woman and also a Brazilian/Angolan. And for the people who are still going to follow and support these kinds of people. Know that you are no better than them. It's just that you're going along with the same thoughts.
Y'ALL CAN EXCUSE RACISM?
Let's get one thing straight: I have no part in this chaotic mess (infact, I have blocked all the accounts mentioned below), but it's grinding my gears how it's devolving into another petty fanfic drama: case 607. I know this drama is getting the attention for certain individuals who are demonstrating mean girl behaviour and gossiping about other writers behind their backs. However, I am solely focused on addressing the racist and discriminatory remarks made by these individuals in the leaked text messages.
For those not in the loop, there's been a huge drama in the fanfic community involving leaked text messages from a group chat of four prominent members. In these messages, two users - Fae and Bel - have admitted to sending hate anons and talking smack about other writers behind their backs. Two other members left the group after it was revealed that B tried to make amends with someone who these two, Em and Ange, don't particularly care for. As a move to clear their names, Em exposed all the texts, trying to prove that Fae and Bel are the real villains here.
But wait, there's more! In these same chats, Bel not only mocked fellow non-English speakers but also bragged about sending rat emojis to an 18-year-old Pakistani writer who was already receiving racist anons. While everyone is focused on getting back at these two women for being shady af, it's mind-boggling how Em and Ange are suddenly jumping on the anti-racism train.
These two ladies stayed in the same chat as a fellow Pakistani writer was driven away because of racism, knowing full well that one of their own was contributing to it, and said NOTHING! Zero discouragement, no condemnation - they only hopped off when things got personal.
So here it is… I've had it with all of you hypocrites. You praise and encourage these women at every turn, feeding their egos like they're the second coming of Beyonce. But let's not forget who's always stirring up drama in this fandom - hint: it's these same people with a sense of entitlement the size of a planet. The issue is groupthink and y'all have all jumped on the bandwagon. You're worse than HBO's marketing department because just like their shitty teams, everyone involved here SUCKS ASS. You don't have to pick a side because they are all petty, mean losers. Bel and Fae are facing the consequences of their actions, which they rightfully deserve.
However, Em's exposé on Bel's racism seems more like an opportunistic move and it's disappointing that so many of you are supporting it. It's a predictable cycle now; there will be a half-hearted apology, an announcement of a hiatus, and then tons of people will flock to their inboxes to shower them with praise and excuses. It's ridiculous! I know there are many who feel the same way as me but are afraid to speak up because they don't want to upset the "village elders" and risk losing their connections and engagements. It's a joke atp!
Instead of taking responsibility for their own wrongdoings, they will come up with a list of 10 different cyber crimes by others to divert attention from their own nonsense. These very same women have confessed to creating multiple fake accounts, secretly stalking servers without mods noticing, and constantly harassing individuals through anon messages.
Yet, we are supposed to consider them as examples of moral integrity and ethical behavior? 😒

ARE YOU SO UNORIGINAL THAT YOU CAN'T COME UP WITH A WAY TO INCORPORATE THE READER INTO THE STORY WITHOUT MAKING HER RELATED TO A MAIN CHARACTER??? WHERE'S THE IMAGINATION, PEOPLE?!!! LIKE FUCK, AT LEAST SAY THE READER IS ADOPTED IF YOU REALLY NEED HER TO BE SOMEONE'S SISTER/DAUGHTER, DAMN 😒😒😒
Don't get me started on the pointedly white language "you blushed" "squeeze so tight, your knuckles turn white" "peach toned..." "his handprint on your skin...". like you actually have to go out of your way to add that shit and it takes me out of the story like i roundhouse kick to the mouth. You. Make. Me. SICK!
