Thanks to catandkitty for this screencap. Courteousmingler has repeatedly denied that she called any rape victims abusive or rapists themselves - and asked for sources of her doing that. This screencap clearly shows her calling an abuse survivor an “abuser posing as a victim”, and openly mocking the idea that she could even be a victim at all. Courteousmingler has since backtracked on this, claiming that she did not mean that catandkitty’s claims of being an abuse victim were false but that she was talking specifically about her position on asexuality in general - that her “rhetoric” is abusive and “posing as a victim” meant she was acting like she was being victimized by asexuals. However, this screenshot clearly shows that catandkitty was talking about being accused of lying about her abuse, and courteousmingler came in and defended those accusations, mocking the idea that catandkitty was a victim and calling her an abuser. Instead of admitting that she was wrong here, courteousmingler has taken the approach of insisting that she has been misrepresented and that it was never her intent to deny or downplay another survivor’s trauma at all, in fact, that she point-blank has never done such a thing ever, and anyone who claims this is a liar. -- source link
