Before I start, I feel I should say first and foremost that I can somewhat understand people’s concerns on the separation of conjoined twins, but you’ll see as I go that I’m not trying to defend the separation of conjoined twins at all, just gonna call out the fact that people immediately jumping to “Qwel/BCS IS ABLEIST!!!” is FUCKING STUPID.

I understand a lot of things nowadays are heated on the internet, I’m blessed to not have succumbed to the “Hop on Twitter” disease. I’m 100% all for calling out injustice, staying woke to prejudice, all of that, but dammit there are some really sensitive assholes out there. Maybe a bad example, but it’s like trying to accuse someone of being racist because they drew their non-white OC several varying shades, while also ignoring every single character is drawn in several varying shades (IYKYK). It’s a reach, and it’s stupid as shit to immediately jump to “OMG SO AND SO IS RACIST”

Same here. I saw the new UGC and my first thought was DEFINITELY not “oh my god separate RnD UGC??? BLUSHCRUNCH IS ABLEIST!!” (and apparently some people are blaming Qwel too even though she is COMPLETELY OFF THE INTERNET AND HAS STEPPED BACK IN THE COMPANY AS OF NOW???) This is the biggest problem when it comes to social media, not being able to settle somewhere in the middle morally; it’s either “I’m gonna defend this person but only because I’m a racist ableist sexist homophobic everything POS” or “I’m overly sensitive to everything so now I’m going to accuse people of being those things without any actual solid proof besides one thing”. You wanna be in the middle? Too bad, both sides will shove you back and forth because they assume being in the middle means being on the other side.

I don’t know I had to say that. It pissed me off.

No, the BCS team and Qwel are not ableist, that’s fucking stupid // RANT
