What. The. Fuck. This is some of the most HORRIFIC shit I have ever seen in a show, and that includes Breaking Bad! Passing off suicide as something that was ultimately a choice Ruby made and not her reacting out after severe torture (because that's what this is, torture), severe torture being used to fulfill a cheap plot point, the suicide eventually being all for the best (in light of episodes 9 and 10)
And then the Curious Cat violating Neo in a way that evokes sexual assault. Wow.
You weren't the only ones who noticed. I've spoken to some other ex-fans and we all agreed there was absolutely no need to frame it...like that, with those angles and expressions and positions and...gah.
ot to mention, Neo has been characterized as someone who is cool, calm, and collected. She's the type to quickly kill someone, not draw it out. Also, killing Ruby is all she wanted to do? Really? What about getting revenge on Cinder?
Have remarked on this before and will remark on it again in the Final Thoughts. Neo joins Adam and Ironwood in villains who were completely twisted out of character to achieve their most villainous portrayals and deeds--though Neo is the only one who's going to receive something resembling redemption for it, which I'm sure is just because of the stunning depth of her character and not, ya know, because of other, more basic factors.
That ban was a whole bunch of bullshit. Your spork was my favorite on the comm, especially because you aren't extremely nitpicky (like, some people complain when the main character has a flaw and isn't nice all the time, or they miss something that was explained, and they do that several times).
Your ban is the entire reason why I will not join Das-Sporking, which I was originally planning to. As an autistic person myself, calling android characters "autistic-coded" just because they're androids(which the mod did when giving the reasons for the ban) is really offensive, and nothing about Penny seemed autistic-coded, except it you associate childlike behavior and roboticness with autism.
Additionally, when someone disagreed with you, you calmly discussed reasons why you didn't agree, and there were extended discussions. Which is natural when disagreements happen. I saw the original posts on Das-Sporking, and you weren't rude in any way.
Thank you for believing in me 🤍 Honestly, I feel immature still bringing it up, but then again I also don't feel like I was treated fair. The day after I was banned, an enormous amount of activity started hitting unrelated socials of mine. I think they finally got the message that I can see them going through my shit, since it's finally come to a very sudden halt, but it still bothers me that I'm not allowed to exist in peace because I guess someone somewhere needs their dirt. Between that and friends I thought were on my side randomly blocking me and cutting off all contact out of nowhere, it seems pretty clear some snakery is still going on.
The whole reason I brought the RWBY spork to the comm was because I thought it would be safe from poisonous behavior, but I guess that was a mistake.
