@WTFE I think that there's been a misunderstanding about intent and something a bit more complicated here, but I've also been around this environment long enough to understand that trying to fight these things tends to cause more damage than taking a step back. So I'm just going to lay it out and truly take a step back from this in whatever dogpile shape it takes on.
While I'm not personally a fan of Cupcake for my own reasons, my response to her post here wasn't meant to be antagonistic and was in poor taste. I have no intention of being antagonistic towards her, nor anyone, but I also have really no intention of fighting against all of these theories about intent or what I meant or why I upvoted this or that, because truly, it's all gray area and it all just comes down to hearsay.
Now, even though I have my own personal reasons for not seeing eye to eye with Cupcake on a number of things, I'm not making things personal, or slandering, or throwing shit, or anything to that matter.
If what is wanted in this situation is not some kind of personal issue or antagonism, I don't think that name-calling and these theorized judgments is going to make the situation any better or deal with it in any meaningful way.
If Cupcake prefers that I butt out of topics she seems to be really digging in on? I'll totally honor that request. I've apologized for the off-color joke I made in response to the video she described, which truly was (when I wrote it) in the "WTF" sarcastic light, and not in any way intended to be laughing at abuse towards women or anyone.
Sometimes people don't get along, but the best I can do despite all of these interesting theories is assure you that my original intention was to no way jab at her, and that is still not my intention as I write this.
Now, if Cupcake would like to discuss this without turning this into a localized dogpiling session and work towards some kind of reasonable, lasting understanding, then please...shoot me a PM. I'm not in any sort of dick mode. I truly don't want any sort of conflict, but I'm honestly not going to partake in some kind of public shaming or dog-piling session that seems to have more of a purpose in causing damage and throwing shame than it does have more of a mature, truly peace-seeking result.
If you'd like to chat, Cupcake, hit me up, but on my mother's honor, I wasn't trying to fuck with you, and I'm not going to try to fuck with you.
Have a nice night.
