I’m not looking to debate the merits of liking or disliking people. I’m sorry for bringing it up. I am certainly not siding with ripper/booby. My intentions are going to be misconstrued, so I apologize.

Well shit. I didn't think she would actually come out and admit it. Sheesh. And ripper, I don't believe you that race had nothing to do with it. I've haven't directly interacted with Kirkette alot, but I've never gotten a negative vibe from her during my lurking. Some people don’t fancy some people. I am not going around accusing people of not liking me bc I’m indian. IF someone doesn’t like my shit stirring ways, I don’t fall back on oh they must be racist. ANyway, I don’t care to discuss kirkette, over it. I don’t like people telling me why I don’t like someone, which I think is fair.

My intentions are going to be misconstrued, so I apologize. but you said you believe her that she wasn’t being racist when a black woman there specificallt said she was targeted by ripper/booby because of her race. So it’s a gross comment to make.

@frank, I think you are discounting the fact that many did have petty issue with ripper. Pettiness is pettiness even if the person ends up being a dick later. I think calling out people for being petty is an important check in our little system....regardless of whether something serious comes out later. I see what y’all are saying. But what I think the other side is missing is that I wasn’t being petty with rip. I knew her deal from the jump. But on the other hand, others can’t exactly claim that because they didn’t even notice the picture in the first place...

Yeah I think the pettiness discounted the bigger/biggest offenses. It was cracker eater. Which fine. But it's hard to take those points seriously. We all know she was a shit stirrer and said problematic stuff all the time. this thread didn't reveal anytbing majorly new.

I own up to my misunderstanding and have been around long enough to know I shouldn’t comment before getting through everything. I am saying this sincerely, no sarcasm font.

@gentleapricot is claiming it too. It’s not just the white women. I'm generalizing. There's legit like 13 black women here. Lolllolol

For fuck sake @frank. There were a lot of posters that acted like petty bitches against ripper at every single turn. This isn't kid gloves. This is a matter of fact. It was mentioned over and over that no one was having Ripper over for tea. She herself was a shit stirrer. So I don't get why you are pushing this whole thing like there is a Ripper fan club. I mean. I feel there was a bit of a ripper fan club. I am comfortable having that as my truth. Girl. You said the same exact thing this time last year. But replace “ripper” with “Naria”.

Your pattern there against Kirkette has been documented well enough that posters can come to their own conclusions. I mean, of course you would say you don't hate her because of her race. But your actions speak louder than your posts.

@frank , I think you are discounting the fact that many did have petty issue with ripper . Pettiness is pettiness even if the person ends up being a dick later. I think calling out people for being petty is an important check in our little system....regardless of whether something serious comes out later. I see what y’all are saying. But what I think the other side is missing is that I wasn’t being petty with rip. I knew her deal from the jump. But on the other hand, others can’t exactly claim that because they didn’t even notice the picture in the first place...Not everyone was being petty -- some of you have earned your I told you so dance for sure. But the bolded is exactly it...don't pretend like you knew something you didn't just because you ended up in the right coincidentally. Some of us weren't even there for that or were on tapatalk or flat out didn't know anything about the imagery and disliked her for entirely different reasons. My reasons I felt were clouded by my IRL job, so I knew I had to roll it back since my own biases were clouding my view. ETA: I don't know/don't care who knew what/am not the person to decide/who earned their I told you so dance (except @gentleapricot obv) I am just speaking generally.

Ol girl who never took a gander at her coochie was handled with kid gloves. If it rained 3 days in a row, somebody would blame ripper, let's fucking not. Facts.

Apologizing isn’t back pedaling. I just am not looking to start a fight, and realized what I said was stupid. Not denying that I said it. I dislike a lot of people on that board, not just her of course, and shouldn’t have agreed to single out rippers dislike just because I happen to agree, as I wasn’t paying attention to the harassing that was mentioned. Again, I don’t want to start fighting with people, especially when I don’t disagree with the overall issue. so I’ll bow out.

@frank in one minute you are demanding IP addresses of AEs and then the next minute you are love-titting the fucking post of some other AE named "hmm m" who is here to stir more shit. ok? What are you accomplishing following my LTs? That ae is making some valid points. I still don’t like AEs but it’s not like they’re never right? And I am still not cool with personal info being shared. Nothing has changed.

Now that we know who ripper is I'm getting more pissed about little things we've let slide. Like if I didn't know past shit from here, I might say sure, she harrassed that woman because she didn't like her regardless of race. But taking into account that she was black AND ripper had that fucking watermelon avatar that she played off like she didn't know what it meant pisses me the fuck off. Like BITCH YOU KNEW. I'm pissed because I have white knighted you ripper and tried to find a good spot in you because I've been in the place of not liked because I wasn't well known as well as accused of being someone I wasn't. But FUCK YOU. You intentionally came here after being ran off from there, INTENTIONALLY was shady as shit about your past screen name LIED ABOUT YOUR PAST NAME, then came here parading that racist ass avatar with hurtful meanings attached to it and ate up every bit of the grace you received when you bullshited everyone about not knowing. FUCK YOU

I don't know about this fan club. I've called ripper out on problematic plenty of times. The bitch is exhausting. Again, nothing new. Business as usual. I'm talking about the "she called me a bitch" "she's in my thread" petty stuff. I want to clarify that because I see a huge difference there.

But on the other hand, others can’t exactly claim that because they didn’t even notice the picture in the first place... Yeah no... I definitely do not buy that the petty patrol "knew her deal from the jump". Hell no. It's a really convenient argument now but it's bullshit. just going to re-post this. From a brief read miawallace and @gentleapricot really did know it from the jump IMO It's a screaming watermelon wearing a newsboy hat. Bitch

I think in this very thread she was handled with kid gloves. People saying it was giant leaps and bounds to make a connection between her and Booby. Not tagging because there were multiple and I’m not going back pages. But yes. And honestly even saying people were just nitpicking her or whatever feels like kid gloves. Any time someone would go for her it would be “she just eats crackers for you” or whatever. Well then why would someone keep going if it’s just gonna be reduced to that? All of this not at you more general thought/observation related to your post. 🙄 It has nothing to do with Ripper and everything to do with my general discomfort at what appears to be wild random guessing and the ensuing pack mentality. So much this. I’m super annoyed that not agreeing with one sentiment at the beginning of this thread is equated to defending rip dick. Especially when some of us haven’t minced words with our thoughts on her before. Once again, ripper gets us fighting amongst ourselves. Sigh.

And I am still not cool with personal info being shared. Nothing has changed. What I'm accomplishing in my first ever foray of reading the two love tit names I can see on mobile is that you are cherry picking the fuck out of your arguments and ignoring everything else. Why are you ready to cape for someone here to defend kirkette who is so high on the "I don't know her" list, out of all the players in this thread... So that is what I have accomplished. I think engaging with shit stirring AEs is as Busch league as it gets. But yet here you are in this very thread...engaging with AEs. Pot, kettle.

Here’s the thing. I think people look real dumb when the mob mentality starts stirring and someone gets flamed because they said they like red sweaters or some shit. But, in reality, there are flames because the poster eats crackers for everyone.
So when people would come through for Ripper, it’s not because they were part of a ripper fan club, it’s because the pile-on looks petty AF.

And I do not claim to have spotted ripper from the jump.
100% the racism call out over the avatar should have been good enough but shamefully it wasn’t. I accept blame in that.
But my perceived pettiness to ripper was not just for pettiness sake. She said something to me that hurt my feelings and was intentional in doing so. I wrote her off then and should have just blocked her or ignored her from then on but chose to make my dislike known.
Hear it from me directly: all blockers and ignorers are far better, more mature women than me.
