Jul. 10th, 2024 01:12 pmI don't really go to Neil Gaiman as a fandom, never have. It sounds I-told-you-so-ish to say that his smarmy demeanor and cutest-guy-at-the-geek-thing vibe put me off. Well, even if we spot some, we never spot 'em all. This one doesn't hurt me personally, but that's just the luck of the draw. The next one very well might.
But there's not been enough noise, imo, in SFF spaces about the sexual assault allegations that are coming out against him. Unfortunate that it's been leveraged in the anti-trans wars, but Gaiman did some really fucked-up stuff, damn. manipulative crap that fucks you up deep. taking advantage of fawn responses, creating crazy-making circumstances.
Gnarly-ass rapist.
I believe his victims and don't respect his bullshit responses.
