"this whole situation is a mess of uncomfortable ambiguity, guilt tripping, and certain bad times ahead"

Bruh... what? It was literally just one confused newbie making a post that threw shade on the flight and its dom leadership, and one anon spark's somewhat poorly worded response to set the record straight. In what world does this justify statements such as: anon saying dom organizers are friendly only serves to hide the fact that the flight is actually a toxic cesspool not unlike an abusive household, the public being quiet about Lightning means there's shit being stirred and covered up constantly and not that there's simply not too much happening, all sparks are about to be viewed as "problematic, corrupt, suspect, drama-causers" (?), people already almost universally dislike lightning in general (??), everyone on FR is prejudiced against certain flights even if they don't admit it (???)

This reads like a paranoid person and I'm saying this with concern, not to be mean.

That one person in the comments who is totally not the op of the DR post admitting they have severe paranoia and it's just, dude. I have excessive paranoia problems and the number one thing will NEVER do is publicly post rumors about shit even if I'm paranoid about that specific thing. It's one thing for me to think it irrationally but it's another thing ENTIRELY for me to say that shit in a public setting. Like I've had paranoia that a user on FR was repeatedly buying my dragons and spite exalting them before I saw it was them (newsflash, it wasnt lol i was selling them as fodder their flight was pushing that week) but I wouldn't publicly accuse them of that??? Because that's just involving others in my paranoia and that's not ok.

I feel like they're not the OP, but instead A in the comments is. When they do come in to rant its the exact same writing style as the post- B just seems like someone with the same point of view. Both seem paranoid (in the literal sense of the word) but I dont think B is OP.

I thought the same thing but OP claims to be in lightning while A says they're in ice. Their rant is just as wild as the original post though. I can't get over how lightning not conquesting and their mother beating them with a frying pan somehow ended up in the same train of thought for them. What the actual fuck.

C just ripped them apart lol

"I’ve said my piece already and I’m too fucking tired to pick apart accusations again so yeah. Give us these damn screenshots and something more than anecdotal evidence about the so called abusive nature of my online family and we’ll be much more able to talk with you than when we’re getting shouted down and having our point of view denied to make us doubt the nature of lightning Dom. Evidence is King [profile] a and I’m sure you must have some for all this accusing."

There will never be screenshots, I bet lol
