i was going to wait for a response from the person i privately apologized to, but i need to post it here too before i get in more trouble.
when i was first confronted about my fetishization of koreans, i was simply told i could not provide fc help for kpop face claims because i am white. i disagreed with this, which is why i said if someone korean was against me giving fc help for kpop fcs, they could come to me directly, because i know for a fact that a lot of people who do this are not korean or even asian at all. this is all to say, i didn't believe i was doing anything wrong.
when i read some posts from actual people whose voices should have been lifted up in the first place, i understood that "krp" itself is racist and nasty in a lot of ways. i have removed any mention of "krp" from my page and indie blogs. i deeply apologize for my actions and fetishization, but before reading these posts, i truly though i was being a decent person. i'm sorry i acted so dismissive to the anonymous asks i got, but i really just wanted the situation to not be a huge source of drama on tumblr, unlike in the discord server before. i'm sorry that i mocked and acted as if the feelings of people who were involved weren't important. i wonโt be using the krph, krp, indie krp, etc., tags anymore, because an ethnicity is not a genre and should not be treated as such.
if you still think iโm a racist and were involved in the original discussion a month ago in the rph discord server, thatโs fine. just please soft block me so i donโt think weโre still friends---thatโs a bit awkward.
again, sorry i waited so long to apologize, but i wanted to wait and get a response from the person i owed the biggest apology to.
