This is all reminded me of the moment my internal struggle started to really shift away from AltFurry, when Foxler leaked the Xanadu back room chat in revenge for how he's been criticized for supporting Kero the Wolf.

They reacted with a lot of anger and gnashing of teeth and talks of revenge and doxing, and yes, while I do want to take Foxler down, it's not because he exposed me, but because of why, and how it almost sabotaged my efforts to work on myself. However, it did give me the kick in the pants I needed to knuckle down and double my efforts to work on bettering myself. I'd freely admit to saying those horrible things, and I am sorry. I am not proud of it, but the point is while they reacted by scattering like cockroaches in the light, I took responsibility and pledged to do better.

And here we are, over half a year later, and I've grown into a fully-fledged fash-basher fighting for the rights of the oppressed.
