If you follow or interact with Soren, at all, please unfollow me. I've told her multiple times how to phrase it so people don't get pissy, and her and her friends keep using transphobic rhetoric to, in my eyes, intentionally piss people off. She's been in my DMs this morning, basically begging for empathy because she's getting death threats.
So here's my statement and my empathy.
I empathize with my friends who have had this rhetoric used against them, past and present, and been essentially mocked by her and her friends online. I have been a victim of this rhetoric too, as I am nonbinary Feminine-Presenting.
I won't lie, I educated Soren on the proper way to convey what they're saying, but they have told me in DMs they don't care if people get upset, that they are happily proud of what she had said.
I told them to stop interacting, and they kept doing so. I told them to block and delete death threats specifically and to stop interacting with the discourse. Instead, they decided to further mock the community I and so many others are a part of. She continued to use TERF rhetoric. She continued to fan the flames of the discourse, reblog the TERF rhetoric her friends use, and then come into my DMs and complain she has Death Threats and borderline demanding me to make a statement that I don't support her getting death threats when that was literally the first thing I posted on the Discord Server and on my own blog.
I don't have sympathy for those that in my DMs, beg for attention and pity points, then turn around and call me rude and disrespectful as I'm telling them what to do and they're deliberately going against it. I don't have sympathy for those who want to make a big deal out of something, rather than literally shutting the fuck up, calming down, and rephrasing what they say into something that should properly represent their beliefs as they're telling a third party.
I don't have sympathy for people who make a goddamn mountain over a mole hill, and choose to die on a stupid hill and then beg in my DMs for fucking pity. I don't. If that upsets any of you, then please get off my blog.
I'm tired of literal manchildren being in this community and throwing bitchfits when adults with much more lived experience and from different walks of life correct them. I'm literally so fucking done with it. At this point forwards, anyone who tries to do a bitchfit, and has been talked about how their words can hurt others, which is an elementary/primary school teaching, and still refuses to change, gets blocked. I don't give a shit, I'm literally so fucking done.
