#owlcourse

I have my own (very strong) opinions on TNR and exotic pets, but I would NEVER harass people or behave the way that owlvid does. The fact that they get so many passes and so much support solely for being a popular "animal" blogger (when was the last time they did any real animal content without harassing anyone?) really scares me.

*drumroll please*

and the winner is, calling for their followers to doxx and kill a couple of people who have been disagreeing with them, while also accusing them of doing various horrible things to animals! honestly at this point I don’t have time for anyone still making excuses for their behavior. jfc. anyway, they’re claiming that it’s a “joke” and that they’re being sarcastic

I don't think it was a full doxx, but someone found a picture and probably sent it to them or they saw it on a 4chan-esque message board. I don't know if it was them or not, but they deleted.

Mikayla Raines from Save a Fox, but that's it that I know of. I only loosely kept up with their drama because it did things to my blood pressure.

Owlvid has a thing where they pick someone doing something slightly wrong, which they turn into much larger of an issue than it is. I will never say that TRL was perfect (they weren't) or that Save a Fox did everything perfectly, but their issues were so minor in the grand scheme of things. I'm sure that the people behind those operations saw facts that internet commenters didn't. I'm sure their actions were the best they could do at that time with that they had at hand. Owlvid uses these situations for clout instead of trying to do anything constructive.

I also think it was really fucking stupid for Owlvid to dare the doxxing website to doxx them. Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor, but Owlvid - who I think is addicted to internet clicks and attention - forgot that or didn't care. They are a drama blog and bloody fucking hell they got drama.
