this part didn't happen though. Anyone who actually read her first post in the topic that she was warned in would not be able to honestly say that she said anything. 75% of the post was sympathetic, comforting and benevolent toward the topic creator. The part about her own situation was briefly mentioned as context. Not to mention, her post was amidst a bunch of deleted posts (several people got warned) saying things like "hell yeah now you don't need birth control!" and other shit like that. She was not at all making anything about herself.

Then, people started talking shit to and about her, being judgmental as fuck and twisting things around. She defended herself and got heated and that's when things got derailed and she started lashing back too hard. She didn't even say anything negative to or about Cleo. It was a matter of "people should be treating me as respectfully as they are treating Cleo here, but they aren't," NOT "people should be shitting on Cleo here like they are shitting on me, but they aren't." Yet the latter is the narrative being sprayed all over by the very same people that started attacking her in the first place. It's fucking transparent and it's bullshit.

That's why it became about her. She wasn't going to stop defending herself and she shouldn't have. She should have done so differently, but she said nothing to warrant being attacked in the first place, which is why that first post was never deleted. She even asked why the other deleted posts were being ignored in spite of being visible in quoted posts (ignored EVEN BY THE TC HIMSELF) which anyone and everyone should have also been wondering as well.

Look man, were friends; But the fact that the first post was cool doesnt mean the rest weren't. She started cool, but she also compared her situation to TCs and downplayed his situation. And the TC didnt ignore her. He actually asked/told her repeatedly to leave the topic. She continued forward against his wishes and was disingenuous. Had she left when TC asked her to no one would have continued shit talking her. But she continued. She wanted to argue her side of things while TC was looking for sympathy and help. She offered literally none of that past her original post. THATS why she got modded.

Her new moderation comes from her making a joke out of that situation. Shes a great advocate for Trans stuff most of the time, but she also has a habit of calling people transphobes just because they disagree with her even if nothing even mildly transphobic was said. It's her go to and it gives other trans folk a bad name. Shes not the hero she thinks she is.
