>>77500559It wasn't just one picture. Her sins also included, among others
-cosplaying a japanese (or asian) character despite not being japanese (RACIST)
-cosplaying a character who has problematic views, therefore sharing those same views (RACIST AND ABLEIST)
- drawing a request for someone who, according to some anons, might be a pedophile though she didn't know this at the time since it's internet (PEDOPHILE)
- drawing a humanised pearl as a japanese woman with YELLOW SKIN AND SLANTED EYES oh the horror (RACIST)
- also drawing fluttershy as a human in native american attire, some native americans said it's actually nicely done and they don't mind but no matter it's RACIST
- also she made some comments on her own blog defending another japanese artist who drew Garnet with suspiciously light skin and straight hair and lamenting how aggressive the fandom is and how attacking fanartists like this creates a negative atmosphere and why can't we all get along, which means she's RACIST AND ABLEIST HOLY SHIT
- also when some tumblrinas first told her she's a racist piece of shit she dared to brush it off at first instead of falling on her knees.
She did post an apology video but people had already decided she's "problematic" and thus deserves everything.
It's insane to see people still make posts on tumblr trying to defend the bullies with all-caps arguments on how she's LITERALLY A RACIST ABLEIST PEDOPHILE PIECE OF SHIT and how can anyone defend that LIKE ACTUALLY PROBLEMATIC. I personally think it's just mental gymnastics, they want to believe they're in the right and good people defending the oppressed, and since they've attacked this actually depressed poc with legit mental health problems, the only way to keep telling themselves that they're fighting the good fight is to believe that she somehow actually deserved to be bullied to death because she drew some fanart. It's ridiculous.
