Proudly cringe

Hey everyone, Nearly a month ago, a user by the name of @the-n109-zone made a hit piece on Lilith, accusing them of being a racist, ableist, stalker, and bully. I’ve decided to make a post of my own, picking apart all of these allegations and their "evidence." (The post in question: https://www.tumblr.com/the-n109-zone/781459318628335616/tw-racism-ableism-homophobia-stalking)

(I’ve been on Tumblr for years, but I’ve never actually made a post before so bear with me if I post like a boomer.)

"They showed ignorance as a developer and made homophobia accusations towards the developers of Love & Deepspace."

Yes, Lilith did call the devs homophobic. And? It was their personal opinion, shared as an explanation for why they didn’t want that game mentioned on their server. It wasn’t a callout or a hit piece. Do you really expect them to create a PowerPoint presentation over a brief explanation of why something made them uncomfortable? This argument is completely unserious.

"They made most of these claims on their developer accounts, which has many impressionable followers."

Lilith was asked a question and responded by setting a boundary in their community. As far as you've shown, there’s only been one post about Love & Deepspace on their RH account, where they simply explained their stance. And let’s be real: their audience is made up of adults, fully capable of looking into the situation and forming their own opinions. Infantilizing adult followers is insulting. Lilith should not be attacked for expressing an opinion and establishing a boundary.

"They have spoken poorly about the developer of YOU and HIM behind their back."

The screenshot you provided shows light criticism at best. Lilith expressed concern and frustration. There was no trash talk, no insults. What exactly is the issue here?

"They have shown stalkerish behavior regarding 14 Days With You. Lilith has an obsession with digging up old posts made by 14dayswithyou and scrutinizing them for any flaws."

So... exactly what you’re doing to Lilith? Do you not see the hypocrisy? The so-called “stalkerish behavior” you’ve provided is weak. The first post has no context and doesn't even mention 14Days or Cutiesai. The second is a vent post on a vent account. Lilith was clearly upset about feeling misled by a game they were invested in. The horror. The third post? No context at all. I can only assume it's about 14Days, but even then, it’s just a snarky comment. And the last one? Lilith states that a narrative being spread about a situation they were part of is misinformation. That’s not stalking. This whole argument is a reach.

"They are obsessed with the downfall of 14dayswithyou to the point where they weaponized and used creatingblackcharacters to reach their goal."

This entire claim hinges on the assumption that Lilith is Galacticglados, based only on writing style and mutual interactions. That’s flimsy at best. But even if they were the same person, what’s the worst you’ve got? Pettiness? That's not stalking. It’s frustrating how casually people throw around a term like “stalker” when they clearly don’t understand its seriousness.

"They're a racist who assumes all dark-skinned people are Black."

Most people will assume a dark-skinned character with no cultural markers is black. I’d bet you thought the same until you saw a clarification post. Are we supposed to wait for creator confirmation every time before referring to a character as black? Come on. Lilith made a mistake. That point is ridiculous.

"They're ableist and made a horrible joke about cancer."

It was dark humor, and they apologized. Come on, you're fishing for any tiny thing Lilith has said to justify condemning them. Be for real.

"They're a virtue signaller who tries to get in the good graces of mainstream accounts despite being a hypocrite."

I disagree. I’ve been in this community from nearly the start, and I’ve seen Lilith engage with just about everyone. Many of the smaller creators either quit or abandoned their accounts. Of course Lilith isn’t still interacting with them. And Lilith has a stalker that has harassed them as well as other creators for years. They may not feel safe interacting with people outside of their already established friend group anymore.

"Lilith supported proshipping after reblogging a statement from fantasia-kitt, despite stating 'no proshipping' on their blog and not apologizing for banning my friend on Discord for liking similar content."

“Anti-proshipping” is vague and debated, and definitions vary wildly. From what I’ve seen, it's usually people against pedophilia and incest. Neither of which are endorsed by The Kid At The Back. The post they reblogged was about fans romanticizing soft yanderes and getting upset when the character turns out to be actually unhinged. That isn’t a proship debate. Also, your claim that your friend was banned makes the whole point feel incredibly biased. You’ve shown no proof of why they were banned. For all we know, they weren’t honest with you about the reason.

"Testimonies from other people: These will be from aggrieved Discord members since that is where most of my friends are active, but I can add anonymous Tumblr testimonies too."

So, no actual evidence. Just opinions from your own circle, who you've already said are upset with Lilith. Great. Listen, I don’t know Lilith personally, and maybe there’s something deeper going on behind the scenes, but you can’t make such monstrous allegations with the laughably flimsy evidence you’ve provided. This shit is serious. If you can’t properly back up your claims, then don’t post them publicly.
