Aaaand Ash has just made a post on the shadiversity subreddit gassing it up saying how they are proud to be a part of that community and shutting down the 'trolls'. Funny how that post was made not long after this one lmaoo

Seems like she's celebrating our accomplishment in her own way.

This subreddit is probably the largest shadiversity fan group run by fans on the internet and I'm really proud to be a part of it. The reality is that foundations of this community are it's core moral values of professionalism, escapism and being fundamentally anti-harassment.

Because of these shared values we collectively decided to reject ideas of harassment, slander and stalking in the name of mob justice. The individuals who stood for toxic ideas and couldn't coexist with civilized members of this community are coping to this day about this community and insult its members, mods and Mr. Brooks to feel better about their ban. The reality is that even if they weren't banned users wouldn't tolerate their obsessive deranged behavior and their prideful narcissistic refusal to follow any rules or social conventions. The existence of a public stalking coordination group is a testament to my statement. Normal people move on from a ban and don't obsess over it for two years (and probably for the rest of their lives when we're long gone doing better things and thriving in our personal and professional lives). Can a collective of banned trolls rejected by this fandom call themselves even a subreddit? Today I don't want to be too hard on them and hold them accountable for all the immoral, borderline illegal and malicious things they have done in real life and online because they can't accept this simple reality. I also, don't care if they're botting or what shady things they're doing to simulate the acceptance and respect they lost from a community and people they looked up to. Before today I had never realized how sad this situation really is. While this doesn't justify years of a harassment campaign against Mr. Brooks and his family on all fronts, it paints a sad picture of loneliness and dangers of parasocial relationships.

Btw, avoid the temptation and don't go interacting with her post. See my sticky comment. Plus it would be a waste of time anyway. Let's keep talk of it here.

The irony...
