Strawpages are fun in theory, but giving people the ability to send literally anything anonymously without consequence can lead to horrible lies and threats being spread like this. I encourage people, especially those who are minors, to reevaluate having them open for safety
@kensunny It’s fine to hate Jade, but as a project director with a voice in the community, you should be more aware of how resharing things like that carelessly can have an impact on the ppl who are already hurting the most from Jade’s actions. Please try to be more mindful going forward
@Mackmyworld Kai’s actions read to me as someone who has been hurt for his identity by cis men like Brandon before, so I can understand why he got tunnel vision. Their upset and calling out the behaviour is valid, but I believe he was rather brash and impulsive in how they went about it
People need to stop minimizing the very valid hurt many trans individuals felt because of Brandon’s comments by saying this situation is nothing. He isn’t apologizing to absolve himself of all guilt, but rather to take accountability maturely and learn going forward.
I’d like to address the events that happened yesterday and regarding a statement of mine that was revealed by Kai. Firstly, I want to make this extremely clear. I am not transphobic. I have no hate in my heart for anyone, and I’m truly sorry.

@Daggu13 Please kindly read the rest of what I said if at all possible my friend❤️ this was not directed at Brandon but the people who are responding to the post

It’s okay to choose not to forgive him either, everyone is well within their right to that. You are so valid for being uncomfortable and remaining that way regardless. But it is unfair to minimize and ignore genuine effort being made to change and grow too
The situation ISNT nothing. He hurt people. But to me it shows maturity to acknowledge and promise to be more mindful going forward. You arent helping him by saying “u didnt do anything wrong” Its ok 2 mess up, what matters is if you take it as a learning opportunity, which he is
@Brandon_Belc Thank you for taking accountability for your hurtful comments, please take this as a learning experience. I look forward to seeing you grow from this as a creator to be more aware and conscious❤️
@yutasoraburger Ppl shouldn’t be minimizing this, Brandon messed up which he admits to and the take away shouldn’t be “everyone is being dramatic! U did nothing wrong!” Because that isn’t productive to anyone but especially Brandon who’s clearly trying to take accountability and learn from this
