Inkbunny's disease

I ignored and blacklisted the rampant amount of AI on this site, but the current Nazi bar situation, the admin's Transphobia and the overgrown orange baby man's support is something I can't tolerate, I can't express how disappointed I am.

Inkbunny became my biggest follower base after I dropped Twitter, so this decision will be hard but I won't hesitate.

I won't be posting any new art on this site for the time being.

You have: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/dashboom
And all my other galleries: https://michelledb.com/

I'm locking comments before things spiral more out of control, I appreciate all your support. Please stay safe out there ❤️

Do you think any administrator here supports Donald J. Trump? I thought otherwise.

Well, here's the site's admin directly quoting that individual: https://inkbunny.net/j/553815-CookieSkoon-i-will-no-lon...

You're talking to one of the problems. Robbie admires Cigar Skunk, he mocked trans suicides, he went into CookieSkoon's journals about her worries and anxiety, and mocked and attacked her multiple times. He continues to make mocking commentary on anyone who speaks up against bigotry.

Can't blame you... social media style sites make me really depressed and so it'll be unfortunate not seeing your art much anymore, I hope you the very best!

I seriously don't understand on what the hell is going on as this issue explodes. But I guess everyone would want a IB alternative sooner or later.

And that's a bad thing? Trans people deserve the right to be themself. Imagine if someone told you to stop being a furry, or that you had to stop cutting your hair, or if you needed a medication for anxiety, you weren't allowed to have it anymore. It's all about a fight for individuality, and politicians and bigots have turned into into a hate march towards a marginalized people who just want to be comfortable in their bodies.

Honestly, same. Holy shit.

It's a shame, because I have my main account and archive account here, too. But yeah, the site owner being transphobic? Fuck that.

Holy shit.

He deliberately mis-genders people who haven't undergone transition and wonders why people in those spaces don't like him. Let alone intersex and nonbinary people.

And then he directly quotes the orange mad king.

Yeah I think I'll join you.

This has more to do with the site own being a transphobic bigot. This is not a political stance. Trans people deserve to exist, and Green Reaper said it himself. The site is not meant to be safe for trans people. He said he doesn't respect them, right out in the open. Trans people are not a political statement, they're a marginalized minority.

That's fine. I do agree, the fandom has gotten a bit too political for my tastes, but it's also become vitriolic towards trans people, and in some cases even queer individuals (but those are much more rare)...

Sadly, human rights ARE a political issue, so this qualifies.
"People deserve human rights" is, sadly, a political statement.

It shouldn't need to be, and I hate it... -_- Humanity disappoints me endlessly, I'm just glad there's kind people to be a shining beacon in this world.

Sooo... Because he didn´t share your political views and way of life you´ve decided to punish all your follower by forcing them to move to another side. Not to mention that said owner of the page probably doesn´t give a flying fuck about the whole thing.

An overall pointless action that´s infacting your follower way more then the person you actually wanna inpact. Instead of doing such mindless acts of protest you could simply live your life and continue you good work, not bothering with people not sharing your opinion.

Trans rights are not a political negotiation. Being a bigot and overall asshole towards someone because you refuse to respect them is not a political thing.

Being silent about this and suffering because 'of the followers' is bullshit. Fuck off with that. That's a selfish as fuck thing to say. People who admire and respect an artist will respect their decisions to move sites, they will honor them. You're not a fan, you just want your free shit without worry in a convenient place.

"OH NO I AM OFFENDED WHAT EVER SHALL I DOOOO"

Honey, you're nothing special. Just like I'm nothing special. I'm stating the facts. If anything, you're kinda offended by the fact I called you out, because you felt like retaliating with a cliche and honestly boring insult.

And don't think I didn't see your bullshit "you shouldn't protest". Fuck off. You think people should be oppressed and just accept the pain and suffering.

Dude really crying about having to use another site to see furry porn and NOT upset that the owner of IB is a transphobe. Nice priorities.

Political views?
- First, when the person in charge of the website doesn't see me as a person or respects anyone gender queer, what guarantees do I have that I'll be safe when people with the same mentality as him attack me.
- Second, I'm not protesting with the thought that maybe things will change on Inkbunny, sadly I doubt they will change, I'm leaving a place I no longer feel safe in.
- Third, get out of my sight.

In Green's words. He was ousted for not respecting pronouns of a group of individuals, so he held a grudge. He refuses to be respectful to others with the flawed logic that sex is tied to pronouns, when pronouns are a social construct, not a physical descriptor like he assumes (Some languages have more than he/her/they).

I try to negotiate with people. I try to see their side. I try to be neutral. Sometimes this won't work. Sometimes people are just assholes. Sometimes they're bigots and refuse to be better.

I want less harassment on this site, but that won't happen. As Reaper said, this site isn't a place of safety, it is meant to be a place of 'expression', including the vitriol.

God, it's so fucking cringe seeing the admin of a furry using the same tiresome arguments I saw bigoted redditor gamers using like almost a decade ago.

"etaliating with a cliche" he said and a second later did the biggest cliche of them all for a snowflake and blocked me so I couldn´t reply anymore. XD

This guy is so entertaining. Kind of sad I couldn´t tease him a bit more. hehe!

Anyway...

What I originally wanted to say with my post is that it is kind of sad seeing you leave DashBoom for such a reason, which in my personal oppinion isn´t really changing anything and is more bothing the people, who do wanna stay at your side. But I was also fully aware that my post wouldn´t change your mind.

sorry for the ramble heh....

What a shame. as a long time user of this website, i love this place (or.. used to anyways)
this was THE place for cub. and well really is the main place for it still. with FA being anti cub, there's not really any other website that can compare. this website was great for finding new artist and following your existing favorite artist and having a really nice profile and gallery.

it's sad to see inkbunny on a downward spiral honestly. i remember in the past i'd open the popular section  and see so much good art and good creators and it'd be wonderful to support people. now every time i open the popular section half of it (for me) is just blocked submissions because i don't support AI art. it's sadly quite large here and i hate it.

i will say, i'm happy they finally got rid of MAPs like a year or whatever ago, that was a huge step in the right direction to get rid of that cancer, but man... i guess i'm more a lurker here more than i am vocal so i never really have interactions with much of the community or the owner / admin team (except a few friends off-site)
but...
I'm a hardcore supporter of trans rights and stuff. I hate bigotry and the whole maga cult and shit and it's sad to see what used to be such an amazing and fun website just get tainted with shit like hate and the owner just refuse to do anything about it and even make it worse honestly.  
man...
inkbunny feels like a home to me i don't know where i'd even go if i left this place
