No need to anon this, Christ almighty Punkitt. No you didn’t properly apologize SKl told you what they wanted in an apology and expressed feeling unsafe talking to you in private and feeling like you weren’t being genuine. Also she’s STILL maintaining the narrative that Largovirts video is framed badly or whatever when that’s not the case at all and she also fails to mention she never even WATCHED the video in the first place before making those comments, Jesus Christ. Even if you reached out to both parties, which you didn’t even do properly bc SKL couldn’t DM you when they first got your ask, I think a public apology that properly corrects the misinformation is in order, since a big issue people have is that you were spreading misinformation by claiming the video was some kind of lolcow shit.
Also the fact that she confirms that Sam’s partner is her friend doesn’t make it better because why the fuck are you admitting to being friends with the partner of someone like Sam, this isn’t ‘oh my friend has weird fetishes’ this is ‘my friend is dating someone who covered up their partners grooming (I can’t remember if Eli was that partner) and also funds a cult of zoopedos’ the fact that that isn’t a deal breaker for you is inSANE.
You didn’t try your best Punkitt, if you did you wouldn’t have made claims on a video you didn’t watch, you would’ve apologized properly once you were informed and had time to cool down, you wouldn’t have waited until SKL was having a suicidal breakdown to contact them since they tried to get in touch with you before and you blocked them.
I am SO SO sick of people who dismiss serious shit like abuse because the person who did the abusing is behind a screen, I am sick of having to be the ‘friend who’s too woke’ because someone I look up to or someone I’m friends with is prioritizing their own comfort over not supporting a dangerous person or just not interacting with that persons stuff. I just had to cut off a friend bc they wouldn’t believe me when I told them about Blaxkgryph0n and I am so tired of how hopeless and tired I feel when I see this bullshit. I hate seeing artists I like reblog stuff by RayStarKitty or Salem or AcidNeko and having to wrangle with ‘do they know? Do I tell them?’ And now I gotta do that with Punkitt too and I’m SO sick of cutting people off but I can’t NOT do it because ignoring it makes me feel disgusting.
I’m sick of putting a big creators precious feelings over the wellbeing and safety of victims, I’m sick of that stupid victim blame-y belief that if someone is angry when they correct you for saying smth horrid, when they can’t tell if you know it’s horrid or not, then they’re actually the problem and need to be nicer.
I have been dealing with bullshit both online and irl for over a year now and I am so sick of it, it sucks ass and a lot of the time I wish I didn’t care about this shit bc oh my god does it look like it’s way less stressful to not care
atp, what does she even get by tripling down. i am not saying that she does not deserve peace, but she has been continually and intentionally cruel toward floraverse victims, even after admitting to being uneducated on what they actually did, calling them shit like this.
or having actual, acting predators in her replies defending the same person she is, despite this almost 40 year old man having groomed a teenager until they attempted suicide before wishing their suicide had been successful.
i do not see how it is easier to dig your head in the sand, pretending this is an unwarranted "harassment campaign", when she caused victims of these people to have suicidal spirals. she has insisted all public statements are non-apologies, so i will be treating them as such.
punkitt's followers also do engage in targetted, transphobic harassment, despite her claiming to be against such. this includes apparently drunkenly messaging said victims, in order to harass them DAYS after the inital "drama" had ended.
