Adding onto this: let me just preface by saying I'm not the biggest fan of sporking fics, but LITERALLY according to the guy you're defending, there's absolutely nothing wrong with what BWIIDT is doing with Cap's fic.

AO3 is just as much a public platform as Tumblr, Twitter, or Reddit. Apparently anything posted in the public is fair game to talk about whenever wherever and however you want. That's been his justification for repreatedly harassing numerous people, after all!

Oh, but apparently not when it's someone you guys like. Then they're just silly headcanons and fanfics! Also y'all still haven't gotten it right, since BWIIDT is the one reading Cap's fic, not Nilsh (Why do y'all think everything bad that ever happens to you is directly attributable to Nilsh, anyway?)

Y'know Moonlitboar was also just posting silly headcanons and art, but apparently y'all thought they deserved death for that.

Also, you're really gonna post the link to some dude's twitter with <30 followers, who I'm sure most of us here have never even heard of, and imply... what, exactly? That a guy existing on twitter who likes art of scantily clad anime characters and maybe has an opinion in common with us is at all comparable to you sitting here and directly defending someone who engaged in blatant harassment? Surely you understand that these two things are, in fact, not at all the same thing, right?

If you don't, I'll spell it out for you: I have never seen that person before in my entire life. I have no idea who they are. I didn't even know they existed until you decided to bring them up completely unprompted for absolutely no reason. Nor are they a prominent member of our Tumblr "community" (they aren't part of our "community" at all... they're on a completely different social media platform that many of us rarely if ever use). And I'm not going to defend them because frankly, I don't know them and I don't know the situation.

However you are sitting here, having seen everything your buddy has done and every bit of harm he has caused to people here, still defending his actions. You are an active participant in a discord server on which he gloated about his harassment, along with many other things being said that are, frankly, disgusting. And you are defending it. Even if you didn't know about it before, you damn well know about it now and you are still choosing to defend it. You do not get to act surprised when people associate you with the bad things you are literally, openly defending of your own volition. You do not get to act surprised when he goes to your discord server to gloat, we see no one pushing back against his behavior (in fact, they are often encouraging harassing behaviors) and people associate the discord server which was permitting that behavior with that bad behavior.

And I'm not claiming the people I'm currently standing by are completely flawless individuals. I am not at their sides 24/7, vetting everything they have ever posted or said. Heck, since Tumblr isn't a "community" in the way Discord or Reddit are I've probably never even seen 80% of what's said on this platform. But anyway, if Nilsh or Moonlitboar have honestly and truly done something wrong, then I would love to know. However, despite claiming you have receipts you have done absolutely nothing to demonstrate to anyone that the things you say those individuals did have actually happened. It's just a string of accusations with a "source: trust me bro".

And the best comparison you could think to find for the purposes of your argument is some guy on Twitter with less than 30 followers who none of us (to my knowledge) have ever even heard of before? You couldn't even bring the receipts you insist you have of the people we're actually talking about (Moonlitboar and Nilsh) being "bullies"? I guess that's less sensational than getting to write EDELCRIT HAS A PEDOPHILE in big bold letters. Which... respectfully, has absolutely nothing to do with the conversation currently being had.

The Edelstan Discord is blind to their own hypocrisy.
