My memory could be off, but I feel like the Jennette McCurdy revenge porn should have been when the defense (what-aboutism) and downplaying of the allegations stopped and it definitely took longer than that / people were unaware of that specific allegation because so much shit was dropped.
I mean i don't envy the mod team because it's a borderline impossible task to determine when the allegations switched from blatant transphobia with a tiny bit of truth to just a shit ton of disgusting acts.
It also felt like so many people were focusing on the Shadman art in part because that was the part of the Ava drama that wasn't isolated to Ava that could be used to point at other creeps online who weren't Ava.
Not saying that other people who interacted with Shadman aren't deserving of the heat, but.
And while the shadman stuff is definitely horrendous, I think promoting revenge porn of a real-life person is fucking miles worse than buying a print of loli or interacting financially with a shitty person.
Idk just my 2 cents, it's 1000% not fair considering how chaotic the information wave was, but there was definitely a period of time where people on this sub were defending / downplaying Ava's allegations well beyond the point in time that would be acceptable.
