No, we went on the deep end either way. Even if she faked the whole thing and was scamming us that means we reacted the way we did (with a shitton of anger, and I remember seeing people respond this way before she was banned forever, and arguing about how she "scammed" them by buying drugs with the money, etc) to what we thought was a real homeless person
Either that or I'm seriously misremembering things which is possible. Either way there was a weird amount of rhetoric about how she was too irresponsible with money and "scammed" donators that made me really uncomfortable
To my memory, Rachel was actually banned for unrelated instances of certain queerphobic comments. That's according to the modlog as I recall it. Ultimately it had nothing to do with the incident you described. There was also genuine evidence that her account was actually taken over by someone else, leading to that post. But ultimately that wasn't the reason she was banned.
Before that, there was an actual transphobic witch hunt directed against her and other trans users of this site by wreckers off the site. Back when this place was new and called chapo.chat, we had regular raids coming in from kiwifarms and transphobic harassment discords pulling shit like that all the time because their attention had followed us here from the reddit banning of r/chapotraphouse.
I recall her calling me a f****t at the same time she was bragging about scamming me, so I don't really appreciate you suggesting the anger was unwarranted
Please stop reading my posts in bad faith. I am not defending homophobia either. I am not defending her bigotry or even her actions. I am just pointing out the sheer ghoulishness of people's response before they knew HER ghoulishness.
Disliking how a site treats what they assume to be a normal homeless person, but alsp disliking that homeless person for being a bigot after they reveal themselves to be one, is a completely reasonable position from my perspective.
Why would you even assume I'm trying to defend her bigotry? What the fuck are you even trying to imply, where is this jump coming from
I genuinely didn't even know she was a bigot until you mentioned it here, I checked out very early in the Rachel events it seems
Honestly, I was pretty upset at finding out that Rachel was back on this site and doing the exact same shit. You caught some friendly fire here and I apologize

the anger before that was unwarranted. Not going to defend transphobia
Nobody knew she was a shitty person before that. They were shitting on her for what they perceived as being a irresponsible homeless person
