It all started when I was reblogging posts tagged as ace//pos/itivity that were discourse related with the response “Please don’t post discourse in the ace//pos//itivity tag”

So then @dooz3r and I had this lovely discussion where they called me an ableist troll for asking them to actually read my responses multiple times and repeating myself multiple times. I would like the say i didn’t know this person had reading disabilities, and I probably wouldn’t have made that last comment, but I had gotten frustrated after repeating myself like 4 times

Somewhere along the line, @titaniumvulpes​ said I was “coddling stalkers” because i was “friends” with “the conservative furry”

Funny how referring to me as “you” doesn’t mean someone is talking to me… but it’s weird how reblogging a post from someone makes you friends with the OP, right? Also weird how responding to someone after they accuse you of supporting stalking and harassment is stalking and harrassment. So I was like, okay let’s look into this stalking claim.

Here is where @furryanarchist “””””admits”””””” to being a stalker (spoiler alert: reblogging people’s posts on a blogging website is not stalking. stalkers do not respect your boundaries, they do not say “i won’t interact with you if you ask me not to interact with them.” Real stalkers will follow you home, take pictures of you and your loved ones, wait outside your place of work to find you afterwards… cyberstalkers will find you on every online account you have, send you threatening messages, learn about your offline life…

It’s at this point where I don’t want to make it sound like the above post isn’t creepy or frightening or weird or whatever else because I do think that post is creepy. I don’t think that kind of behavior is like, fine and dandy, but it’s not stalking, offline or cyberstalking. It’s interacting with someone (maybe in an aggressive and unfriendly way) on a website made for interactions.

And then there was this post

which like…. I don’t know what the phrase it is I referred to them as that was the same as their stalker, but I didn’t do that knowingly and i wouldn’t have done it if I’d known what it was. I apologize for that. But I blocked you because you accused me of being an abuse apologist for reblogging a post from someone who made a questionable post during a mental illness episode
