Honestly, can we maybe just… Not talk any further about the latest of Raxis’ attempts at PR stunting to stay relevant? He’s just getting what he wants, and while I’m glad it got called out — there are more important things than harping on this.
Like, how is your day going? Done anything nice today? What’s your favorite color? That kinda stuff.
I go back and forth on this but the thing is - We tried that. For over a year. I can't speak for everyone because I hope you guys know I don't actually know everyone, the idea that there is in fact a Seekrit Edelcrit Community that all get together and have brownies and hate on YKB is... kind of a made-up strawman - but those of us who he first went after hard, tended to either not acknowledge him or do so only in passing.
He used the opportunity to double down on his behavior, to the point where he helped harass / direct harassment towards at least two people who were bullied off social media.
So staying silent... tends to work in his favor insomuch as he's shown that blocking, no contact'ing, etc. does not affect his behavior at all, and he still takes the opportunity to take screencaps, name drop, break fandom norms, etc. Damned if we do, damned if we don't, but at least if I do maybe someone else will pre-emptively block or recognize the guy as the permanently online, permanently badly behaving manchild? Who knows. I definitely don't want it to take precedence over things like my job, my IRL habits, etc. which is one reason I haven't been around this week in general.
Day's going good, although I would very much like to get some inspiration sooner or later so I can make some progress on some fic! My sister and I did a quick grocery run and I've managed to catch Blaziken so that was neat. My favorite color is blue-green but I am very particular of the shade of it.
How are you doing Anon? I hope you have lots of snacks and a lot of blankets.
Put it this way nonnie.
I made it a point to not acknowledge Raxis in any way - including blocking - from the time of ~September 26th, 2021 through January 9th, 2023. I actually have the first instance of him sending me asks screenshotted (with my sister's drive-by insult after snatching my phone from me, whoops), here, all the way back from before Raxis had his pfp be that black-haired girly.
In the time between Sept 26th 2021 to Jan 9th 2023 - 16 months - I never once made any public mention of him. This is despite the numerous asks, replies, reblogs, and pings I would get from him. The breaking point was on January 9th, when he looked through my blog, found a fic recommendation post I made for a Black Eagle centered fic I was told about, and posted a comment there within twenty minutes of me making the fic recommendation. Here's the post that goes over that.
After that I had made some posts about his behavior, explaining it to those who didn't know and to some who were trying to defend him. In the time between January 9th 2023 and now, Raxis has made numerous posts that showcased he block-evades me anyway.
FantasyInvader, another known """edelcrit""", has never once interacted with Raxis. Not once, to this day. Being charitable, Raxis started responding to FantasyInvader's posts on around May 2022. With FantasyInvader never once responding to Raxis, Raxis still responds to him; he has done this as recently as four days ago (Jan 10th), on his twitter.
TheEeveetamer has responded to him a few times, before ultimately blocking him; he still block-evades. She literally watermarks her posts so that he doesn't screencap them and respond to them; he erases the watermark and screencaps and responds to it anyway.
The watermarked anon:
Raxis' response:
OP is recently responding to many asks pertaining to Raxis - most from one, spiteful "friend" of Raxis' - and also has Raxis blocked. Raxis responds to her by cropping out her answers to anons to make it look like she is endorsing harassment.
Here is what Raxis leaves out:
With him not even blocking out her name in his tweet in the midst of doing this, knowing for a fact that he didn't show the entire post in question and that she is not, in fact, endorsing harassment and that she is, in fact, doing the exact opposite; meaning, he is deliberately trying to get people to go after OP. He is deliberately trying to rile people up to go after a boogeyman that he created.
So, nonnie, as annoying as it is? There really isn't any real "winning" with Raxis here. If you ignore him, if you respond to him, if you block him or if you don't block him, he will go out of his way to deliberately smear your name. If you've talked bad about Edelgard, then he is going to harass you. He can phrase it as him just looking out for the poor fragile delicate Edelgard fans who would just faint if this set of pixels were called anything but the most wholesome bundle of joy and love, but in the end he really is just obsessed with making people who mildly disagree with him out to be the worst monsters on Earth. The most anyone can do is, like OP says, preemptively warn people about him so that they can take measures to stay away from him
^^^^
Yeah - mind, this is just a fraction of his behavior which many of us had had to record because he counts on us staying silent and/or claiming we're all hysterical, perpetual victims, angry about being "wrong," some variation of lying, etc.
It long ago crossed the line from being drama to some truly weird, conscious actions that, at my most charitable, I can only think of is to create some sort of "brand" and 3H / Edel-fandom notoriety for being The Good Guy Fighting The Haters. At worst? Well... I don't wanna speculate because I have seen a lot in fandom days.
And just to reiterate before I take a break and do more exciting things... this is not a teenager. This is not a young adult who doesn't know any better.
This is a 35 year old adult male who has routinely selected targets ten to fifteen years his junior to try and make miserable, and feels confident enough to brag about it behind closed doors.
So yeah. I am of the opinion of not trying to engage... but certainly spread the word to protect yourself and others and maybe throw in a clown nose or two because clearly, he doesn't want to move on or mature.
ETA 8/25: So I made this post roughly a year or more ago(??) and considered unpinning it off and on in between bouts of laziness.
Except as it turns out, it is August 2025 and Raxis is still engaging in truly bizarre behavior, hate stalking and drama stirring, and still using Twitter to declare everyone he hates some variation of pedophi1le, red hat, "fake" LGBT, "fake" non-white, and whatever else works in any given moment.
He is also still engaging in sockpuppetry and using made-up accounts to follow people who have blocked him.
As always, don't engage unless with the occasional clown nose but please do let your friends and circles know to avoid as best they can.
