Kathy, just a note; before you reply to Kylenne in anger and scold her as if she were a child, please know that you're a white woman talking to a black woman and that doing so will make you look very bad - worse than you already look.
I reiterate that no one is going to save you, and if you deign to bring in 'reinforcements' to tell me that I and my friends are wrong and bad and cruel, they will summarily be banned.
I am allowed to do that, because this is my space.
You blame the victim, you reap the whirlwind.
This is my space. It is a safe space as much as I can make it so, because I am tired of being vulnerable. The rules are mine; I am the deity of this minor kingdom.
You do not get to tell me how to behave, and if that upsets you - fine, feel that anger. Feel it, acknowledge it and then know that anger is a sign of your privilege.
