#maybe it was a typo and she meant the 2022 delay... but even then that's just false - I vividly remember the rwde tag back then

Thank you, orrin 💖 Your support is vindicating. I like to give the benefit of the doubt, so despite all the negative things I'd heard about lilith and how she treats people, I didn't want to let that shape her in my mind before I gave her a chance. So I tried to extend that olive branch in my reply and apologize for not being clearer in my initial reblog (while still trying to stick up for myself where I felt it was warranted).

I'll admit it frustrates me that the effort I put into that in-depth reblog was tossed aside, as she blocked me (making my response to her accusations impossible to see without that link or stumbling across it on my blog), and then wrote that post that not only showed she'd hardly skimmed what I'd said and selected the first thing she could jump on, but twisted it to make me seem like I was saying something completely different. Much like the whole "hatejerk" accusation that showed she didn't actually read what I said on that post, either. I even had a section of my response that said "Please read this part, even if you want to hate me," but based on her reaction I'm 99% sure she didn't get that far in the post.

I know lilith has a lot of followers in the fndm, and I've seen at least one person reblog her vaguepost about me, which sucks knowing that because she hid my response and didn't reply to it, almost none of her followers will have the context.

This is the issue I talk about in some circles of the fndm, and it's disheartening because I do try to see the best in people, give second (or hundredth) chances, and take what they say in the best possible light, so when people do the opposite, it shows they don't see others as individuals, but a hivemind. "I know how people like you think." No, you don't. And I don't know how you think. So let's talk about how and what we think as people, not as "people like you."

I really hate doing these callout posts, but an incident that occurred last night has forced my hand. 

I’ve noticed a considerable number of my followers follow @/lilithfairen, and I did, too, for a while. Until last night. 

They made a rather disrespectful post generalizing all RWDE stans as bad, and a close friend of mine who uses the RWDE blog to voice their genuine, firm, and fair criticisms didn’t appreciate the rude generalization, so they commented on it. 

Lilith’s response was disgusting, and it was blatantly evident that they did not read the entire response, only reading until they found something that they could get mad about. They then went onto my friend’s blog and went through all of their RWDE posts just to find something else to get mad about. 

Even so, my friend remained respectful, giving reasonings behind their criticisms and providing evidence of what their posts meant, which can be seen here.

She insulted and tore into my friend, then blocked them, and then made a vague, passive-aggressive post about them, twisting their words into something entirely different than what my friend said without providing any evidence. 

My friend attempted to defend themselves, and she blocked them again. It’s clear that she had no intention of conversing in good faith, and attempted to drag my friend through the mud through a lie. 

I commented on their original post which you can see here, because I do NOT tolerate the abuse and bullying of my friends, and instead of replying, they simply blocked me like the coward they are. 

She’s just like CanonSeeker, a venomous parasite who leeches off the fandom in order to make herself feel bigger and better, to look like some kind of hero in the eyes of the community, when really, she’s just another toxic member. 

Not all criticism is unfaithful, and if you think someone is a bad person for having opinions that you disagree with, or has a criticism about something in the show, then you’re toxic. Fragile and toxic.

Please, I know she’s influential, but I would appreciate if you were wary about her and her “sources”, if you don’t feel comfortable unfollowing or blocking.
