On the 12th of December 2023, November Kelly and others came out with a statement accusing Sophie From Mars of sexual abuse on Twitter.

Sophie responed to this by admitting the allegations to be true, but that she somehow didn't notice. She did not apoligise. It's noteworthy that she did so on Twitter and in form of a solemn jpeg, ie the text cannot be searched for. Sophie always said that Patreon is the center of her online presence, and her work is mainly found on youtube. Yet she kept this entirely to Twitter, knowing most of her audience will not see it. That's cold. Controlling.

I was one of Sophies patreons at that point and had no idea, if it were not for an anon ask. I subsequently blocked and reported Sophie on everything save Patreon, where I demanded all of my money back. Crickets.

If Patreon really is the center of her online presence, that's where she would post an explanation, or apology, or anything. She didn't.

Months pass, now Sophie is back with a new video essay (which Youtube recommended to me despite me blocking, downvoting and not-intersted-ing everything). Someone posts it on r/breadtube, all the comments are about her being an abuser, yet the poster is fangirling too hard and alluding to some more statements that had been made about the scandal, yet refusing to provide any proof.

So I make a fucking Twitter-Account again, just to see what this could possibly be about.

Sophie From Mars made a further statement on Twitter on 11th of Janurary 2024. And only on Twitter. And it's solemn jpegs again. No apology, no responsibility. But a psychotic episode.

I'm not saying Sophie could not have had an episode. I'm saying it's very convenient to have something to blame her admitted blatant disregard for kink etiquette on. She's literally disguising her abuse as kink! That's not how mental illness works!

Before: Rhydon After: Tyranitar

I like them both but I ended up developing a softer spot for Tyranitar after using them on my teams, including Pokemon Go

i have a few comments of my own regarding this, though i will largely leave this and let you all be a judge.

what i will say is: look at isff continuing to put the abuser's feelings first while not having the slightest consideration for the mental state or feelings of the victims in question.

what i will say is: look at the phrasing at the beginning. minimizing the actions by refering to abuse as simply "something bad". painting it as just some inconsequential thing.

and yes, sexually assaulting someone is a crime. putting out cigarettes on someone's arm is an act of abuse.

"as long as you lie and call sophie a liar" here she is, outright implying that sophie's victims are lying.

part of me wonders if the "you want her to be removed from her job?" is a memorized formula for her. though i would like to remind you all, this situation began with isff reblogging sophie's fundraiser for a birthday vacation trip and someone informing isff that sophie has sexually assaulted other trans women.
