> It was alleged on certain BlueSky accounts (some now retracted) that I knowingly and willfully associate with individuals with harmful ideologies or racist and transphobic ideologies and, to such extent, facilitate them by knowingly taking their business. Over a day it grew into increasingly wild claims of buddying-up to them. These are flimsy, unsubstantiated sets of malicious lies. Contrary to narrative pushed by pitiable rumor-mongers I don't "accept commissions from known Nazi Furs" or "Decide to no longer take their business". That's what you call weasel-wording; It's bad faith language for a poisoned narrative to pass around with intent to fester. It's simple. It's provocative. It's what the shittiest of politicians and detestable talk radio wordsmiths use to manipulate you.> tl;dr Some bucket of severed foreskins tried to scam me out of $400 bucks by posing as an artist who held a YCH I won, impersonating them in contacting me on Telegram. I sleuthed them out and denied their effort. This is a frustratingly, increasingly common occurrence and we should all stay aware of the tactics phishers and scammers use, and to not trust something that feels authentic. Artists: Learn to love invoicing and using a means of payment that can be compensated for to engender trust with your clients. Commissioners: Don't be afraid to question us if you're concerned about our authenticity. We should be worthy of your trust as well as your money. Both: Communicate in approved channels and accounts. Trust but Verify
