Assuming she was not mentally ill to the point of being profoundly delusional at the time, there is no excuse for the kind of behavior winterfox engaged in. Zip. Zilch. Zero. NONE.

Supporters
Numerous members of fandom, social justice bloggers, and other SF/F writers have stood by Winterfox since her outing as a backstabber, mainly due to a refusal to read the evidence against her or ignore the ongoing pattern of abuse.

Nick Mamatas, despite his outing of her. See: everything he's posted anywhere on the matter.
Kameron Hurley. See: On Becoming What You Hate, Redux, where she defends the use of alternate personae and performative rage.
K. Tempest Bradford. See: Calling Out, Collecting Receipts, And The Line Between Creepy and Conscientious, which also includes GirlJanitor, blogger at MedievalPOC, appearing in the comments.

"Performative Rage" My. Left. Asscheek.

I now know whose books/works to stop supporting, and when I see them enter any thread I'm reading or talking in, I'll know to dismiss out of hand their contributions because their support of Winterfox and her horrible behavior shows what shit-idiots and hyporcrites they are.

Their opinions and ideas are no longer currency in my realm.
