Around 10 years ago she was overtly Zionist on dA, which... It was 10 years ago. So she's been trying this angle where she declares she's 'changed':

But the important thing is that, before she privated her likes, she was liking IOF propaganda following Oct 7th:

She wrote a huge wall of tweets before her apology that I showed above, and deleted them. I curse myself for not saving any of those tweets, but it does turn out that if a tweet is deleted, it doesn't delete the discord preview of the tweet, so I screenshotted from when I and a friend were discussing some of the tweets(one my friend did screenshot):

The reason she deleted them is because she TRIED to do the "I changed" angle, but then pivoted to complaining that she didn't understand what was wrong with the liked tweets as she believed them to be facts, believed 'Westerners' have a fantasy idea of the "conflict"(never used the word genocide), & complained at length about her personal run-ins with Palestinian freedom fighting.

This included her saying she 'almost died' because she was at an event, left, and 5 minutes or so later there was a suicide bombing there.

Never in those tweets does it cross her mind why some Palestinians may use violence as a last resort and what the reasoning for that violence is. She goes on to complain about people cancelling others over "minor issues," says that this is Westerners "feeling like they're doing something," and then says that "no one has talked more about the Israeli-Palestine conflict online than I did" despite her having been silent due to being a closeted Zionist.

This is a person with a large platform, but I haven't seen much talk on Tumblr about her (though I try to keep the MXTX fandom at arm's length because of usual, far less heinous fandom crazies, so maybe it's just me) so I want to make who she is ABUNDANTLY clear.

Block this person. Cancel your Patreon subscription. Her art is not worth it. Whatever AU she has where WWX gives up fighting against genocide and the Wens get corralled and kept under watch of the Lans is directly in line with her Zionist beliefs. Do not believe her bullshit about how she's 'changed.' She has not. She made it clear with that wall of tweets she deleted. She doesn't give a fuck about Palestinians and wanted a fucking pat on the back for bragging about how she made art of a Hamas soldier and an IOF soldier flirting and kissing. She is nothing but a fucking Zionist.

And despite horrible fucking people like herself, from river to sea, Palestine WILL be free. And just like apartheid South Africa, Palestinian children of any ethnicity and religion will one day play and laugh on the land that was once a horrible ethnostate theocracy that kept starving children in ghettos, refused to recognize interreligious marriage, stole and bulldozed homes to give to illegal settlers, and declared water is not a human right.

Part of the reason the needle has shifted and why Palestine is talked about more and more and why politicians even in the US are growing in their support of Palestine is BECAUSE us talking and speaking up and refusing to allow Zionists in polite society is slowly but surely moving the needle.

It has come to my notice that @pakhnokh is an Israeli and a Zionist, who had always been a pro- Zionist. This was something I didn't know at all, and I have been in the MDZS fandom since 2023. I didn't know until very recently when people on twitter had started to call out on the person.

Probably some of you guys here already know, maybe you don't. I tried to gather as much information as possible about it.

Apparently pakhnokh's anti-palestinian stance dates all the way back to 2014. The screenshot below is from DeviantArt, where she talks positively about Operation Protective Edge

I researched a bit on Operation Protective Edge, and what I found was not only ugly, but horrifying.

This was immediately what popped up when i hit search

"2014 Gaza war, also known as Operation Protective Edge".

I then dived into a few reports by Amnesty International, ICRC, and IMEU (Institute of Middle East Understanding). I will link the reports below, and will also summarise what I found.

Operation Protective Edge killed more than 2000 Palestinians, 500 of whom were children. It was also a seven-week operation (Source: Amnesty International). Seven. Weeks. Meaning this operation, launched on June 8, 2014, lasted for almost 2 months. That's 2 months of killing and displacing Palestinians in Gaza. About 28% of the population were displaced during the Operation.

The report by IMEU also states that Israel had initiated the "Hannibal Directive" twice. For those who aren't aware of what this means, it is an extremely dangerous procedure by which the Israeli Forces "must stop (kidnapping) by all means, even at the price of striking and harming our own forces". Even Israeli people have condemned the military for this directive. All I can say is that the level of bloodlust the IOF possesses that even the idea that their own people may die in the crossfire doesn't stop them...

Amnesty had also described Operation Protective Edge as a military offensive. And this is what a military offensive means:

And people still call them "Israeli Defensive Force".

All of this is to say that this was what pakhnokh spoke of so proudly in the first screenshot.

More screenshots of Pakhnokh being a Zionist:

Like? "If you tell a Palestinian - go back to Jordan or Egypt, he says - go back to Poland"??? The kind of sick joke is this?! I'm so disgusted.

And once again, praising the operation that killed 20000 Palestinians...

All of this summing up to - how have we, the fandom, allowed this monster of a person in, god forbid financially support her even, when all along she had wanted the death and destruction of an entire group of people, just like her country and her government and her rotten military???

How had we accepted a Zionist with open arms, made her popular, when we had also collectively come together to raise funds for Gaza in the year 2024 through various gachas, so that we could try to undo at least one small part of the damage this person had contributed to??

And how are we, despite everything, going to let her off the hook?!

I for one certainly won't!

I will call out pakhnokh, gods forbid it be toxic or whatever, because I am never going to let a Zionist exist in a fandom where the main character calls out against genocide.

And to the rest of the fandom...

Block. Report. Cancel your paetron subscriptions if you have one, and do not support pakhnokh on any platforms. Ignore her completely. Let all her engagements on all social media accounts drop to zero.

Compared to her sentiments on Zionism and ethnic cleansing, this is a very small punishment. But let pakhnokh never be welcomed into the MDZS fandom ever again.

(P.S. i will attach all links related to Operation Protective Edge and the threads from twitter which brought to light about who pakhnokh really is:

I was sure that by now everybody already knew what this was all about but I see that this is not the case so I owe you an explanation.

In the last few days people have violated my privacy and exposed to everyone that I am from Israel. I have never mentioned the place I was from precisely because I wanted to be judged as a person and an artist and not as a representative of my country or government, which I am not.

They managed to recover my old deviantart account, which I deleted long ago for not being relevant, (really I had no idea you could revive dead web pages, I'm getting old), where from the comments and text I wrote, I seem as a terrible person, with no compassion to the suffering of the Palestinian people.

Those comments were a result of my experience as a child, who grew up not knowing about the Palestinian side, and constantly seeing death around me, nearly escaping a terror attack of a Palestinian suicide bomber myself, in 2001, when I was barely 9 years old.

Those comments were a result of a child who grew up on history texts and narrative of the Israeli school.

But they are long ago irrelevant since I gained more understanding about the situation in the place I live in. I am a person who acknowledges the suffering of the people on the other side, want it to end and want peace and understanding to come to this region. I am a person who rejects and opposes the actions of my government that cause harm and suffering to innocent people, children included. I just never wanted to talk about it on the only online platform that works as an escapism for me.

However, expressing solidarity and sadness also to the victims of my own country, isn't sharing "propaganda", as I have been accused. It is a human natural reaction of grief for the people who share your reality, your language, your identity, regardless of who or what caused this. It is not me aligning with the actions of my government, it's crying together with the common people, who cry for their dead loved ones, some of which I knew.

I am not at fault for the way things are here. As millions Israelis and Palestinian, we did not choose this life, we were born into it, educated a certain narrative, grown to see it shatter in the difficulty of the presence of the other narrative, and exhaustingly just want to say fuck it all and live and provide for our families.

I cannot express apology for things that I no longer believe in that were dug out and shared as if relevant, that I deleted knowingly, that I wanted to have no  connection to. Since I am acting by a whole different guideline - of loving, respecting and cherishing everybody in this art and fandom community, no matter who they are, where're they from and what they believe in. And I hope that if you take a moment to reflect on the Pakhnokh you've known for the last few years, you could see and agree that this is indeed so. I have never used my art platforms to share political ideas, force others to hold them, incite, threaten, share private conversations and cause harm to a person's or a family's income, as was done to me and my friends.

That's it. I hope you understand better now what was going on, and whatever decision you come to, to continue following me or leaving, is solely up to you, and I will respect your decision and say thank you for the amazing love and support you've given me all these years.

As for me, I will stick to my principles of making my page all about art, comics, and content, and want people to find joy and love in it, the same joy and love I feel when I create them.

Fictional characters are objects.

Stop telling people to encourage the cop inside their head.

How you treat fictional characters, given they are entirely objects of fiction, does NOT necessarily speak to your own character, and you do not need to be "careful".

It is not dangerous to imagine dark things happening to fictional characters. It does not mean you are secretly a bad person. It does not mean you unconsciously want to hurt people in real life. It is not a "slippery slope" to doing bad things to people in real life. You cannot damage your brain or turn yourself into a bad person by consuming "dark" fanfic.

Note: This is an updated version of an old post from my sideblog. Leaks from the original script are still coming out occasionally so this post might have to be updated again sometime in the future.

Episode 13

Wei Wuxian saves Wen Qing from being hit by Wang Lingjiao's iron brand.

🔗 Video

Wang Lingjiao attempts to burn Mianmian with the iron brand. Wen Qing pushes Mianmian away and she almost gets hit by the iron brand. Wei Wuxian swoops in and saves Wen Qing.

Wei Wuxian fell backwards, also knocking Wen Qing down, the two of them rolling across the ground together [...] Wei Wuxian looked down at his chest, his clothes were scorched black and smoke was rising from his burnt flesh.

Wen Qing: (whispering) "Wei Wuxian!"

Wei Wuxian smiled at her as if he wasn't hurt.

Wei Wuxian: "Wen Qing, take care of yourself,"

Then he got up and returned to the ongoing battle. Wen Qing reached out, wanting to hold on to him, but his robes slipped from her fingers.

(‼️ In the novel, Wei Wuxian rescued Mianmian.)

Episode 19

When Wei Wuxian gets caught by Wen Chao and Wang Lingjiao after the golden core transfer, they bring Wen Qing in and threaten to kill her in front of him.

Wang Lingjiao: "That day in Xuanwu Cave, the hero rescued this beautiful maiden. Does Miss Wen keep you inside her heart? Shall I rip her heart out so you can see it for yourself?"

Episode 36

When Wei Wuxian unseals Wen Ning's consciousness there are some deleted lines of Wei Wuxian inquiring after Wen Qing's whereabouts.

🔗 Full video with audio

Wei Wuxian: "So that is to say...you have no idea where to find Wen Qing, either?"

Episode ???

Not sure which episode this is from but it should be post-reincarnation and before episode 39.

Wei Wuxian dreamed that after he fell off the cliff he woke up in a stone cave with his body covered in bandages. Wen Qing is in the cave with him, crushing herbs and brewing medicine.

31-6

[...] He couldn't see the figures clearly, couldn't recognize who they were. They seemed to be calling his name but he couldn't hear them clearly. The sound of the wind whistling in his ears reminded him that he was falling. Wei Wuxian wore a smile on his face, unbothered by the prospect of imminent death. The edge of the cliff is getting farther and farther away from him....farther and farther away...

Boom!

A loud noise, and then the world around him was plunged into darkness.

31-7 [Dreamscape]

Time: Night

Location: Inside a room

Characters: Wei Wuxian, Wen Qing (with her face concealed)

Wei Wuxian wakes up in a stone cave outfitted with basic facilities. Medicine was being boiled in a small pot, and sitting on a bamboo table near him was a woman who was crushing medicinal herbs. His vision is blurry but he thinks this woman is Wen Qing.

He tried to call out to her but realized that he couldn't make a sound. He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the woman and tell her that he was awake, but he couldn't move his body. After several attempts he could only lift his hand, and it was then that he saw that his arm was covered in bandages. The woman finally realized he was awake and she quickly rushed to his side, overjoyed.

She rushed to Wei Wuxian, bent down to look at him, and called out his name. He still couldn't see her face properly. Wei Wuxian was very anxious. He struggled, wanted desperately to talk to her, wanted to wave his hands. He wanted to see if the woman in front of him really was Wen Qing, but the more he struggled, the more his vision blurred. The image before him slowly started to fade, leaving only her hazy voice calling his name over and over again.

Wen Qing voiceover: (voice getting louder and louder) "Wei Wuxian! Wei Wuxian! Wei Wuxian!

Then the world was plunged into darkness once again.

31-8

Time: Day

Location: Guest Room

Character: Wei Wuxian

Wei Wuxian suddenly opened his eyes. His entire body was covered in cold sweat and he was panting lightly. For a moment, he was unable to tell whether the scene he saw was merely a dream, or if it was actually a memory.

Outside the window, dawn was just beginning to break, but Wei Wuxian could no longer fall asleep.

(‼️ These scenes seem to imply that after he fell off the cliff, Wen Qing took him away, brought him somewhere else, and then tried to save him. In the novel, he was ripped to shreds by fierce ghosts and didn't leave an intact corpse, but the way he died in CQL should have left a corpse. This is a 'plothole' that people have been bringing up often since the show first aired. These deleted scenes with Wen Qing could explain why nobody found Wei Wuxian's body, and also why Jiang Cheng managed to retrieve the flute from the bottom of the cliff, but not his corpse.)

Episode 39

Wei Wuxian walks around Tanzhou city market and mistakes a random woman in red for Wen Qing.

33-33

Time: Night

Location: Tanzhou City Gate

Characters: Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji, Wen Qing (illusion), Random woman in red

A woman in dressed in red stood under a lantern. She turned her head and smiled at Wei Wuxian. It was Wen Qing. Wei Wuxian stared at her in a daze. He slowly reached out a hand, wanting to call out to her, but hesitated.

Wei Wuxian: (in a soft voice) "...Wen Qing?"

But then reality struck him as the woman turned around. Although she had a lovely face, she was not Wen Qing.

Wei Wuxian: (Had a blank look on his face, then he laughed casually) "Sorry about that! I mistook you for somebody else,"

The woman covered her mouth, and walked away with a smile. Wei Wuxian sighed softly, then turned around and saw Lan Wangji standing under a dim lantern.

Episode 43

Wei Wuxian asks Lan Xichen about the scars on Lan Wangji's back. Lan Xichen tells him that back when Wen Qing surrendered herself for punishment to the Jin clan, Lan Wangji broke into Jinlintai to rescue her, and fought with cultivators from the LanlingJin and GusuLan in order to protect her.

🔗 Full video

36-17 [Memories]

In the dungeons of Jinlintai, where Wen Qing is being held as prisoner, the Jin cultivators standing guard suddenly fall unconscious to the floor.

36-18 [Memories]

Lan Wangji enters the dungeon where Wen Qing is held captive. He asks her to leave with him and she refuses. Lan Wangji tells her that by sacrificing herself, she's only hurting Wei Wuxian. She asks him if she has any other choice.

Wen Qing: "Then tell me, Hanguang-jun, is there any other path I can take?"

Lan Wangji fell silent. Wen Qing turned away from him.

Lan Wangji: "Wei Ying also asked me this question,"

Tears finally started falling from Wen Qing's eyes.

Lan Wangji: "I now have an answer, I'll help you,"

Wen Qing turned to look at Lan Wangji. Her face was streaked with her tears and her expression was uncertain.

Lan Xichen voiceover: "Wangji fought and injured thirty cultivators from the LanlingJin and the GusuLan in order to rescue Miss Wen. This matter was kept secret, and the Jin clan did not wish to make it public. It could have been swept under the rug, but I didn't expect that later on..."

36-19 [Memories]

Lan Wangji stands in front of the Burial Mounds, surrounded by other cultivators and Su She (I think this is the scene where Lan Wangji says: "You are not qualified to talk to me" but the rest of the script is not visible in the photo)

(‼️In the novel, the one that Lan Wangji rescued was Wei Wuxian. Lan Wangji fought and injured 33 Lan elders in order to protect him, and because of that he was punished severely using a discipline whip, which left him with deep scars on his back. This is one of the most important WangXian scenes and is a major turning point in their relationship)

Episode 46

In Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng's argument leading up to the golden core reveal, Jiang Cheng says that he thinks Wen Qing is alive. He then accuses Wei Wuxian of hiding her from him. Wei Wuxian insists that he doesn't know where Wen Qing is either.

(Can you tell whose script this is? It's Xiao Zhan's 😂)

Episode 50

After the conversation with Nie Huaisang in Cloud Recesses, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji part ways. Lan Wangji leaves to become Chief Cultivator while Wei Wuxian goes on a journey to find Wen Qing. The story ends after Wen Qing and Wei Wuxian reunite.

42-51

After their confrontation with Nie Huaisang in Cloud Recesses, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji part ways.

They are finally going in different directions. They stood facing each other, the breeze rustling their robes.

Lan Wangji: "Have you decided where to go?"

Wei Wuxian looked up at the white clouds floating in the sky and shook his head.

Wei Wuxian: "I haven't. I think I'll go look for Wen Qing. Perhaps she's still alive,"

Wei Wuxian then turned and led Little Apple down the mountain path. With his back turned to him, Wei Wuxian raised his hand and waved.

Wei Wuxian: "Lan Zhan, goodbye,"

Wei Wuxian walked into the distant mountains, amongst the emerald-colored greenery. Lan Wangji watched Wei Wuxian's retreating figure before slowly turning around and walking in a different direction.

42-52

Lan Wangji suddenly stopped walking. He could hear the sound of the flute Chenqing from a distance, playing a very familiar Gusu tune.

Wei Wuxian voiceover: "Lan Zhan, the next time we meet each other, you better have a name for this song,"

Lan Wangji did not look back, but there was a smile on his face.

Lan Wangji: "Way ahead of you,"

Lan Wangji shook the hems of his robes, and continued walking forward.

42-53

Wei Wuxian played a tune on his flute as he rode on top of his donkey. Suddenly, a familiar voice called out to him from behind.

Wen Qing voiceover: "Wei Wuxian!"

Wei Wuxian was stunned. He slowly put Chenqing down and turned his head to look behind him.

[END]

Character Biography

It's stated in both of their CQL character descriptions that Wen Qing is alive, and that Wei Wuxian looks for her at the end.

WEN QING

'Wen Ruohan's niece, descended from the branch side of the Wen family, who is a highly respected medical practitioner. She is known as a peerless beauty of the realm and has a generous and proud personality, but she is very shy when it comes to her feelings. Afraid that other people will say that she likes Wei Wuxian, she took great pains to hide the admiration that she felt for him in her heart. After the fall of the Wen clan, she was rescued by Wei Wuxian and the two of them become a quarrelsome yet loving couple who relied on each other for support. Later on, Wen Qing rescued a heavily injured Wei Wuxian, then she disappeared without a trace.'

WEI WUXIAN

[...] After his return, he worked together with Lan Wangji to solve the mysteries of his past, and in the end, he went to find Wen Qing.

LORD HAVE MERCY

I am tired at this point of reading and watching Danmei/Dangai and be exposed to the same “cut sleeve” reference to allude to male same-sex attraction and relationships.

Don’t get me wrong, I thank the creative team and the writers for finding such a unique (?) way of bypassing censorship but there are so many more literary and historical references that they could use to allude to same-sex attraction. I’m kinda over the same old “Cut Sleeve” reference. 😖

Here are some of the most popular allusions used by writers in Chinese literature to reference male same-sex desire.

The Four Male Love Icons of Chinese Literature

I’m pretty sure that, if you are into Chinese history, folk, literature, etc, you have heard of the four beauties of ancient and imperial China. You have the four most beautiful Chinese women and the four most handsome Chinese men.

The same thing is true for the tradition of male same-sex love. Those are:

Mizi Xia (彌子瑕) and Duke Ling of Wey (衛靈公)

Lord Longyang (龍陽君) and King Anxi of Wei (魏安僖王）

Prince Zixi, Lord of È (鄂君子皙), and the Yue man (越人)

Emperor Ai of Han (漢哀帝) and Dong Xian (董賢)

Other literary allusions include:

Pan Zhang (潘章) and Wang Zhongxian (王仲先)

Lord Chan of Anling (安陵君) and King Xuan of Chu (楚宣王）

Hu Tian Bao (胡天保) as Tu’er Shen (兔兒神)

The four revered bottoms of Chinese literature and history are:

Mizi Xia (彌子瑕)

Longyang (龍陽君)

Dong Xian (董賢)

Chan (纏), Lord of Anling (安陵君)

If you ever come across a poem or prose that mentions any of those names to refer to a male beauty, just know that it’s an allusion to their stories. They were considered the peak of bottom literary reference.
