Silent Heaven: Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss

[TNP]

I’m just bemused at a self identified kind, compassionate queer community member tossing around ‘retard’ as an insult. Man, I hope she was lying. It’s embarrassing to be in the same community as someone like that.

@TNP I’m not saying there are no queer people who would say, “I’m on the rainbow so you all owe me your support or else you’re bigots.” I’m just saying it makes more sense to me to assume she was lying about her identity in a really lazy attempt to gain a moral high ground.

Really stupid attempt too, given who she was talking to.

I reread a couple of times and could never quite figure this out.

Did the “LGBTQ+ community” ever have anything to do with this, or was it just some completely random thing she picked out to add an exciting new dimension to her screaming?

I think it’s a key part of Silent Heaven’s credo that they’re accepting, don’t appreciate bigotry, etc, etc. The poster was railing against a lack of acceptance for them, because they conflated “we accept the community” with “we will let the community do whatever.”

@Pavel
@mietze I wouldn’t bother trying to be rational with 'em. They’ve a history of doing this histrionic rage drama BS, no need to get down to my level.

No, I do not. I have a history of being kind to the other players on Silent Haven and even apologizing to both admins and players when any issue or perceived issue did come up. You can even ask Edwin, Liz, Charles, Falke, and several others if they’d believe your bullshit. They know me well enough to know you’re dead wrong. Hell even Jump Scare witnessed me doing exactly as I just said in this post.

In three days you’ve developed a history of ‘even apologizing’?

I would just like to say I am deeply hurt and offended at being called straight. If anyone needs me I’ll be binging queer cinema and cruising Grindr.

[Kestrel]

On behalf of the entire ex-Haven community, I am so sorry.

MOD VOICE: Do not claim someone else is lying about their personal identity for ‘points’, ‘moral high ground’ or anything else, or insinuate that they’re not ‘really’ whatever identity they profess. Doesn’t matter if it’s a current poster, banned poster, or J. Rando Person.

@Pyrephox Understood.

[Sillylily]

That was a doozy
