Note: For newcomers to the Vade thread who don't have the time to go through hundreds of pages of this shit, I recommend reading over Vade's lolcow.wiki article. A lot has changed since this first post, but the contents of that first post will remain.
Boy, was I still really Tumblr when I started out, huh?

Boy, was I still really Tumblr when I started out, huh?
I'm a little hesitant to post this, just because I've become far more entangled with this person than I would ever like to admit, but fuck it. I'll toss you guys this juicy morsel.
Vade AKA Scoutgender AKA Razkin is a 19 year old otherkin/multiple system on Tumblr who was perhaps most well known for running a blog called TF2fandomisproblematic, which singled out artists and writers in the Team Fortress 2 Tumblr fandom for perceived slights and mistakes, often falling under the categories of being "transphoic" or "ableist." Vade's preferred pronouns are "it/its," and will flip the fuck out if you address it as "they," as they are adamant "it" is not human.
Despite being completely nuts, Vade had, at one point, a scary amount of influence, causing multiple Tumblr users to abandon their blogs by making "call out" posts, listing their crimes (often with zero evidence), and said person being overwhelmed with Anonymous messages to kill themselves. One victim, who was a 14 year old severely mentally ill transgender kid, tried faking their death in order to escape from the scrutiny they received. The kid was found out, and immediately inundated with more messages shaming him and telling him he'd be better off dead.
This influence waned considerably after more people started to speak up about them, but the crazy has never stopped.
Vade went from being a demiboy otherkin identifying as a fennec fox with he/his and fen/fenself or kit/kitself pronouns (never they/them because if you use that, THAT IS MISGENDERING, READ ITS BLOG) to using other made up pronouns like "piece/pieceself" (Vade has become a Professor Layton fan) and "sprout/sprouts," among other things. Vade constantly shifts its personal identity, reacts explosively when people fail to keep up with their pronouns.
Last I checked, Vade was also identifying as a deitykin, or literally being a god. Considering that Vade often got off on shit-stirring within the community, and would proudly proclaim themself to be "King of TF2 fandom" or the "fandom God," it doesn't surprise me in the least. Vade and their crew also recently took to self-diagnosing as autistic, to further smear any critics as being ableist.
Reddit's /r/TumblrInAction board got a hold of them and stirred shit up by hiring a professional griefer to go after one of Vade's critics. At least, this is what we suspect, since said griefer was said to be doing this on behalf of Mrs-Pauling, a friend of Vade's who now goes by tedizself. The target of said griefing fell for it, and later it was revealed that Mrs-Pauling was underage and also probably could not have afforded to pay hundreds of dollars with their parents noticing. Whoever really hired that griefer, nobody knows for sure.
There are two entire Tumblrs pretty much dedicated to documenting the shit that goes on with Vade and their weird little cult of personality TF2shatfest and Scuntgander. Originally TF2shatfest was started simply to laugh at fangirls being weird perverts and targeted someone who I was friends with in particular, but said friend has fallen in with Vade and has completely drank that Kool-Aid.
This person has gone out of their way to terrorize friends of mine and make other people's lives miserable. I had to talk that 14 year old kid escaping from their cult out of harming or possibly killing himself because of some looney on the internet that thinks they're a fox.
They came after me and encouraged people to harass me when I stated publicly that I think otherkin is bullshit and full of cult-like behaviors and abusive, manipulative assholes who prey on mentally ill people. Vade has gone out of their way to prove this opinion correct.
For me, because I am close with a lot of people who have been hurt by this person, they're half lolcow and half source of spitting, inarticulate anger. But I think the forums, being farther away from this mess, might appreciate this milk.
I mean, there is way more than this but I tried to keep it as brief as possible.
TL;DR: SJW thinks they're multiple animals and video game characters in one body, harasses people on the internet, thinks they are a god, nearly causes underage kid to hurt/kill themselves.
Refer to this and this for evidence and more in-depth explanations. These links are a good place to start and screencap.
EDIT: Vade frequently changes their Tumblr URL and checks incoming traffic and IPs to their page. Expect links to break frequently.
