Fans of a show that once helped us + now doesn’t hear us. Goal: thoughtful dialogue that addresses issues inc. fan intention, representation + mutual respect.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

You ask “What is your one main thing?” But that’s just it: we’re diverse in many ways, yet because we all have ONE thing in common, we’ve been grouped into ONE thing & shut out together.

We each have a silenced perspective, and together we are asking to be heard. #SVUSilencedMe

@SVU_OC @KennaHi49037445 @jslehman11 There is great value in being willing to listen and learn, much more value than trolling this page with inaccurate information that led you to false accusations. I don't know why you're so set on not hearing, but I'll leave you alone in your decided ignorance from here on out.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

If you feel silenced, unheard, misrepresented or not represented at all, share that. Our social blackout tonight is about raising awareness and opening a dialogue with show leadership, not attacking any individual. Feel free to tag this account as an explanation. #SVUSilencedMe

@torijoy09 @MzBrandN3wM0n3y @AttiaDS This is not about Isabel. Many people misunderstood her article. I don't believe she intended for people to take up a call against fans. She never claimed she herself was bullied. She wrote that comments about Kathy (which she came across in a trending topic) caused her pain...

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@KennaHi49037445 @SVU_OC @jslehman11 You're both incorrect about the basic facts regardless of how I've tweeted them repeatedly. Re-read Isabel's article & take note of what she does & does NOT accuse fans of. Tamara also made it clear that hate about Angela was not directed at her. Your accusations are false.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@ImOnlyHereForEO Let me be less PR than my normal tone on here and say UM WHAT???? We are literally all obsessed with Danielle AND Bell, and there have been exactly ZERO tweets coming at Danielle, let alone about things related to her character.

Truth is welcome here; lies are not.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@v23474 @isabelgillies She does not deserve it and she did not receive it and she did not claim that she was attacked. Please take a moment to re-read her article and our response to these misunderstandings. https://t.co/OrJ4oMHtvY

@svu_only @MissErinRenee @Deanna_13 @SDotVA @LadyHighGarden We have higher hopes.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@MissErinRenee @svu_only @Deanna_13 @SDotVA @LadyHighGarden Listen harder if you’d like to know, which by the way, it doesn’t seem like you do. It seems like you care a lot about making sure we know that you don’t care. We care. We’re allowed to care. We’re allowed to ask for change.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@MissErinRenee @Deanna_13 @SDotVA @LadyHighGarden There’s a difference between what’s within their rights & what’s right. This isn’t about what fans expect of TV; it’s about SVU, which aims to be a voice for its fans. It is losing touch with our voices because it does not hear us. We love it enough to keep trying. #SVUSilencedMe

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@ImOnlyHereForEO My main is @wildmind_eo, and you are welcome to critique me. I am one of a few who run this account, and we made decisions about how to approach this with ~200 people voting together on our message and plan.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

Here is a perspective of mine:

I am a bisexual woman, and I have asked for more representation in the SVU writers’ room.

What are yours? #SVUSilencedMe

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@MissErinRenee @Deanna_13 @SDotVA @LadyHighGarden We no longer feel that SVU appropriately represents & supports its fan base, which includes a vast array of survivors, which the show claims to be for. We’re not represented & treated well, & we are not heard when we try to speak about it. We each come with our own unheard words.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@MissErinRenee @torijoy09 @MzBrandN3wM0n3y @AttiaDS The viciousness was about a character not about or directed at a human, and we are not making a stance about the intended meaning of her article, as it’s not the issue. The resulting toxic behavior by WolfEnt employees is one of the issues we’re addressing.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

This is not an attack.
This is a request for dialogue.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@torijoy09 @alrightabigail I’ve responded to many of your comments on the posts, and I will eventually get to the rest, but you have a lot of accusations and questions in various places, so why don’t you send us a message where we can have a clear conversation.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@MzBrandN3wM0n3y @torijoy09 @AttiaDS In fairness, I do not think the intended for every one to misread her article and assume that fans attacked her personally, but unfortunately that is what happened, though it is not why we are here. Merely the tip of an iceberg.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@torijoy09 @MzBrandN3wM0n3y @AttiaDS I agree that our views on characters are not that serious. That's not why we're here. And I agree it's not about me; it's about us — the survivors this show claims to speak for. If not us, then who may care? SVU has made the world a better place, but it is not above reproach.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@torijoy09 @MzBrandN3wM0n3y @AttiaDS She gets to have her feelings and pose her questions. One of our related issues resulted in the responses to her — in the incorrect assumptions made by many, much like the ones that you also made and the resulting hate that was poured out because of that thoughtlessness.

[#SVUSilencedMe 🤐 @SVUSilencedMe]

@torijoy09 @MzBrandN3wM0n3y @AttiaDS Whether we agree with her or not, she was talking about a deeper issue of whether fans SHOULD speak about characters in the way we do. She recognized that we speak about Kathy as though she has no connection to Isabel but challenges whether that's problematic.
