I’ve seen what people consider to be her “bullying” too and a lot of the time it is her responding to people negatively. That’s it.
But because she has a platform there are always going to be people who say that if she responds to people then she is “opening up those people to abuse” because she has followers who might be a to them.
But what that says is that a woman who is being bullied should do so in silence, she shouldn’t respond because she has a platform, she should suffer so that others don’t have to deal with negativity.
It’s ridiculous. I’m not involved in this fandom wankery but I’ve seen these same situations play out over and over again over the past few years with her. It seems like people feel entitled to her and they expect her to respond in a very specific way.
I’ve rarely seen as much tone policing go on, it’s incredible. She gets berated for not being nice enough to anon hate who don’t think her work is real, or good because it’s too real. She gets unsolicited advice and it reprimanded if she is negative about it.
Telling a woman to moderate her emotional responses to traumatic events? Ground breaking.
