I’ve gotten a few DMs from users about them potentially leaving over it.
While i do think the overall statement in the post title is true, I did NOT want to or expect things to go the way they did. Main.
First and foremost, I want to personally apologize to any users that may have been hurt in any way by comments they received or exchanges they had.
I also want to apologize for not keeping a better eye on the comments. As a mod there, I resolve to be better. I made the post, then just handled any reports that came in. Still a few to sort through.
Whomever locked the thread, thank you, I just hopped back on to do that.
So here we are. If anyone has anything to say directly to me, please do. I may not respond immediately due to how things have been going for me offline lately, but as per usual, I basically live here so I am around.
Also I apologize again if this comes off as “me me my feelings.” I get self conscious about that sometimes.
Just because I’m reacting to a very clearly racist word doesn’t make me reactionaryOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH. oh. Damnit.
