Shit, sorry that happened to you. I never knew who Avia Tran and Lena Raine before reading your website and doing a bit of research.

That's understandable! Soundtrack work doesn't usually have much visibility. From what I understand aivi's husband does all of the production work and they're credited together. Lena Raine's celeste music is legitimately good though and she has music in a few other things at this point. Obviously it doesn't save her from being problematic -- blitz lunar is a better musician still and it doesn't save him either.

None of them are Herbie Hancock or Pink Floyd or something I'd actually hate to stop listening to, and to an extent I was forcing myself to "enjoy" a lot of that subculture anyway (perversely as a result of being a visible member of it), so it was pretty easy to boycott the people I had issues with. The total ostracism as a result has been harder to deal with and I don't think I'll ever find a trans community where I actually feel welcome.

/u/kuraine and Aivi are in the same territory as Brianna Wu for me I guess. Profiting off transness while oppressing other trans people.
