Rising from the past - part 2
So, you may ask, what does all that crap from more than 10 years ago have to do with now? Well, it all started with Cassie posting an anti-bullying message last fall. Sinead just popped out of the woodwork with all kinds of accusations about how Cassie was involved with getting her removed from HPFGU and that Cassie had tried, via HPFGU, to get her kicked out of university.
All completely untrue. I have no idea what problem Sinead has with Cassie. I don't think they've ever met and just know each other from the early days of HPFGU, if at all.
Cassie was never a mod on any HPFGU group and though some of us knew her or had met her, she had no influence whatsoever on the running of our groups. She was just a regular group member, same as Sinead.
I met Cassie once, at lunch in NY with a bunch of other HPFGU folks. Just in case you wondered. I loved her fanfic back in the day. Read the first book she published. Didn't care for, didn't read the rest. Just so you know where I stand on that. Not a huge Cassie fan, so also not a rabid Cassie defender. Just don't like seeing bulls**t repeated as gospel truth.
In any event, Sinead is publicly denying ever hacking into anything. Says there was never any proof. Now insists that Cassie is behind everything. I'm sorry, I just can't figure out how her little brain somehow, a decade later, decided Cassie was connected to any of this. Stupid things, too, like saying Cassie provided HPFGU with their own chat transcripts to use against her to her university. Really? It was common knowledge that we archived every transcript.
What's interesting is how gullible people are. She's given no proof whatsoever about anything she posted and people are taking it as gospel. Of course, some people have no lives and nothing better to do than grabbing a cause, however unfounded, and running with it without ever checking to see if there's anything to it.
Has no one ever heard the expression "Don't believe everything you read on the internet"? Good lord, folks, grab a brain, check some facts, stop being mindless sheep and jumping on non-existent bandwagons.
On that note, I'm heading to bed. It's midnight, I'm tired enough to think I'm not making sense at this point, I work a crap shift tomorrow and need some sleep.
Make of it all what you will.
