AYRT

I don't think this is harmless especially considering star wars fandom at the time. And harm generally can justify a "callout" post or what actually happened, which was people in her mentions saying "whoa this is kinda shitty" and other people going "leave her alone, john is way worse"

I agree that it's not harmless. But I think there's a big difference in my head at least between "whoa this is kinda shitty" and a callout post.

And then I think I did misread your position to some extent, because I think I interpreted you as in effect saying something like... "well, the posts are missing and we can't look at them, so therefore we have to go off the reactions that people had at the time", or something along those lines, and sort of darkly hinting that the callout posts had been justified. And I think that's probably not what you were saying, but that's the impression that I got, and that seemed (and seems) unfair based on (as you say) the lack of evidence.
