CALL OUT FOR THE “RUSTY QUILL OFFICIAL” SERVER (AND ESPECIALLY ITS MODS)

Our group of roughly 10 or 11 people spent some time in RQO, and in that time, we were made to feel extremely uncomfortable. We had our feelings and concerns dismissed and invalidated. We witnessed harassment, and this space that was HEAVILY populated by children was clearly not being modded by people who cared about the well-being of those children. Our group did not even start out this big. We found more people along the way with similar experiences who helped us collect evidence for this post.

TW for racism, mentions of incest, fatphobia, mentions of age gaps, ableism, antisemitism, transphobia, mentions of pedophilia, RPF, being creepy regarding voice actors, mentions of police brutality, classism, people putting minors in uncomfortable situations, and erasing canon asexuality.

Here it is.

Rusty Quill Official Breakdown

A breakdown of Rusty Quill Official’s Discord server and its mods’ irresponsible actions. This is a list of things witnessed in Rusty Quil

* laughs in adhd *

any adhd kids out there that loved long (3+ hour) car rides because it gave you an acceptable excuse to stare blankly out at an ever-changing background and listen to music on loop / daydream extensively please raise your hands. i wanna check something

girl in a horror movie: vomits up black liquid or blood, screams at the top of her lungs and tries to hurt anyone that goes near her

me: it be like that sometimes

i did not have “born in the wrong body” childhood transgender angst i had “blissfully unaware of the concept of gender until the world lucifer’d me and made me bite that fucking awareness apple and then suddenly everything was Wrong” angst

White people: if you want to help long term: get used to being told your opinion is wrong, irrelevant, or unwanted. Tell your friends to get used to it. Work on getting used to it and do this work with other white people. Because white supremacy has all of y’all very used  to being right and being an inherently valued voice and if we’re going to fight white supremacy you’re going to have to be comfortable surrendering that expectation and also white people will need to learn how to handle being rejected or disagreed with. It’s an extension of racism and racial trauma for black people to try and educate or speak up about our issues only to expose ourselves to your white fragility which  makes you defensive– this defensiveness can look like shutting down, silencing us, painting all corrections or disagreements as ‘fighs’ (extending the idea that black people are aggressive) etc.

White resilience is the opposite of white fragility and black people are VERY good at resilience, unfortunately. Listen to us we know how to combat this.

I know I’m being an insufferable worldbuilding nerd here, but my basic metric for evaluating media with very inhuman protagonists is “how easily can one offer a complete and coherent account of this media’s plot without ever mentioning the fact that the protagonist is, for example, a talking car?”. The harder it is, the higher it scores.
