Hiiii chat, if you couldn't tell by the fact that my username is the same, it's deerlyloved, hiiiii. I only recently even found out about this blog, and I usually hate gossip rags/etc, but, you know, I can't exactly say this anywhere else that might get attention lol.
I cannot stress enough that everyone who cares even the slightest bit about not supporting transphobic, homophobia, and white supremacy, should leave the site. I know that I stressed in my statement in the Discord that it was my personal morals/ethics that caused me to step away, but genuinely, I have to say; If you're sticking around, all you're doing is contributing in some way to a woman who loves fascists, and will give her money and time to those - worse yet, YOUR money and time if you buy anything from the site.
Kris does not care about this site beyond the fact that it gives her money. She will continue to use the money this site earns to purchase commissions of her and her neo-nazi boyfriend, she will use it to do fuck all for the site, and she will use it as proof she can keep exploiting whatever staff she can get her hands on.
Current staff members that are aware of what she's doing are supporting her. They are fully complicit in this.
As hopeful as I wanted to be initially, there is no way out of this. To continue to be on Goatlings, unable to criticize the actions of the owner, unable to tell anyone else about the things they are supporting, is supporting Kris and existing in a feeble silence. Grow a backbone, and quit.
I loved this site with my heart and soul, but I have the basic moral principles to understand that while I care about it, Kris sees it, and my love for it, exclusively as a way to get easy money by faking support for marginalized groups. She isn't going to get better. There is no magical future where this site flourishes, and she has a change of heart and goes through a villain redemption arc now actually saying 'NO' to racism and transphobia and homophobia. At most, she'll make a new secret account and try again.
Putting yourself in the position of someone too scared to speak does nothing but embolden those who exploit you. Practice the bare minimum of resistance and quit while you're ahead.
Or don't. I can't make you do anything. Personally, I'm just going to redesign my goats with more freedom, humanize them, and take their original story elsewhere.
PS: If you are going to stay on the site for whatever reason, and I get banned, please swoop up Impersonation and make her a Midnight Moon again. I'll give you her profile code.
