I can confirm the blocking part. When Ren's exposed happend, along with someone's else exposed, i supported the accounts who were exposing and telling the truth(but i never said anything on my blog, i just liked a few of their posts) and guess what? I was blocked by some people of this fandom and one of them is a very big and talented artist, which kinda makes me sad seeing that someone so talented who seemed to kind supports people like Ren.
I’m sorry you were blocked anon, it’s always a weird feeling realizing someone has you blocked. Unfortunately Ren and his pack have something of a hive mine going: you either support him, or you’re out. There is no room for discussion or shades of grey. If you show any sort of support against him (even something like liking a post condemning him) Ren and his enablers will assume you’re against him and you’re done to them.
It might suck but all I can suggest is blocking this person in turn. The unfortunate fact is if this person supports Ren now, they likely always will. Sometimes you just have to cut off all contact with even the enablers. There’s no shame in blocking people who continue to support Ren and try to cover up his shitty past, no matter how good an artist this person may be.
