She's a goddamned moron. Feel free to check my correspondence with her on her post. That being said, you guys do need to have a conversation about fauxbait. It is legal, obviously so to anyone with half a brain cell, but the name does kinda cast a poor shadow on the instance. As we know, morons are loud and obnoxious and draw all kinds of unwanted attention, but they usually get what they want. Ya gotta ask yourselves if the community is worth the trouble it is going to continue to bring.
IMO, It is worth the trouble to expose the hypocrisy and the false inferences. As per your own comment/question in her post wrt femboys and twink communities, what other communities will be next to be in the line of fire?
BTW, reddit's r/FauxBait has gone through this before so it's really nothing "new" - see https://www.reddit.com/r/FauxBait/comments/14ce2b1/future_of_the_sub_being_private_etc/jokul0a/
I was a former mod and poster there (not the head mod)
