I wasn’t clear enough about this: JeVa was one of those people who did kind things, but also did BAD things. People are complex. That doesn’t mean they are welcome in our community. You can’t give out enough chips to make up for harassment and making people unsafe. https://twitter.com/dublinpdx/status/1309059554316087296

I do believe in a rehabilitative model. But that model absolutely begins with accountability to your community. Acknowledging what you did, and the harm you caused. JeVa has no interest in doing those things. Until then, we owe his victims safety.

In the meantime, please become familiar with DARVO. Something JeVa has exemplified in every statement: https://dynamic.uoregon.edu/jjf/defineDARVO.html

Also, even more complex: harmful people don’t harm everyone. Or even MOST people. Even when they have the opportunity. It can leave the people around them confused, lost, and even angry. It takes time for them to accept the truth.
