Someone on our Discord server took a screenshot of one of Desdendelle's posts out of context to put on /r/badphilosophy (which, for those of you who aren't aware, is not a place for discussion, but for internet mockery). If the link gets deleted for whatever reason, here is a screenshot for posterity's sake:

Either someone is going to very great lengths to make this look like it's a post by palin, or this is by palin. Either way, there is a PPCer who felt it would be appropriate to take a screenshot of a message from a PPCer and post it in the intent of letting other people mock them, and I wish to bring this to the community's attention. -

Most subreddita require names and usernames to be edited out. Though tbh badphilosophy doesnt really care about doxxing/brigading. I tried ti fing their rules, but i can't make sense of the subreddit.

I didn't write this. I was kinda assuming a highly unlikely coincidence, but this user seems to be copying some of the things I've publicly said before ( https://www.reddit.com/r/asktransgender/comments/4uuh86/whatwasyourdeniallike/d5tckzd/ ). Which is... Incredibly creepy.
I don't think that's a PPCer, though. I did take that screenshot, with the French timestamp, to talk about it in a forum thread which was a place for constructive discussion (And thread derails. Lots of thread derails.). That would explain how this person knows my real name, which I mentioned once on the PPC Discord but use often on that other forum, and how they knew I was nonbinary 7 months ago, when the post I linked there was made (I was out on that forum, but not ostensibly on the PPC). I know some people there hold a grudge against me, but I've been assuming identity theft would be taking things way too far for them. I'm still pretty sure it is, so I'm gonna check with some of them.
Either way, this is creepy as [Language!]. -
Could we get a link to that forum post? by

(Reverse image search isn't finding it, but it's rather unreliable, especially with recently posted content.)

The "bad content" isn't exactly indicative, it got named that way because there were already more specific threads in the same vein (like the Tumblr.txt thread) and that one was intended as more general. It does sound like a making-fun-of-people thread but it's actually not really, if you look at the rest of it, you'll find lots of constructive discussion, because that forum's subculture kinda encourages speaking up if you disagree with something. There's one that spans a bunch of pages on that thread (and eventually lead to lots of drama when other people got involved including myself, but oh well). -

You do realize that not every Boarder wants to make an account on a forum they're not interested in just for this issue, right? If you could post some screenshots that would be appreciated, partially because I want to assume good faith and that it is indeed an impostor.
Besides, your own posting of the screenshot in the other forum wasn't very nice, IMHO. I mean, if you wanted a constructive opinion on his post (which I'm going to assume you posted without asking for his permission, didn't you?), you should've just copied the text, or at least have censored his screenname.
I'm sorry if I sound harsh, but this is a pretty serious situation right now. -
You're right, sorry. by

So, here's the screenshot:
I was in a bad mood for unrelated reasons, and I didn't think of censoring his name or, well, actually giving arguments as to why I was disagreeing with him on that. That was a terrible thing to do and I'm sorry for that. I'm gonna delete that forum post now. -
A minor observation (attn: emythos) by

Looking over that screenshot, I noticed that an "emythos" liked the post captured there. The name jumped out at me because, two days ago, a person named "emythos" joined the Discord. Since they joined the channel, they haven't said anything or otherwise participated, even though several people @-mentioned them to say hello or welcome them to the PPC.
Someone we don't know lurking silently in chat made me (and the other mods) a bit uneasy, so I went and queried the archives to refresh my memory. I found that emythos posted on the Board in December of 2015 (plus the end of that November) and at no other times. That is, they introduced themselves, hung around for a month, and then apparently left the community until Wednesday.
So, in these unusual circumstances, emythos, if you're reading this, welcome back the the PPC! -

Hello yes I am a live person who is not, like, spying on you guys or anything. I just am a super awkward human being and am bad at socializing. Hello. I posted here before, felt awkward, and stopped. That'll probably happen again, I'm bad at keeping up with forums and stuff.

The post you linked to is from your own account and not this second user, correct? Or no?

I actually don't have a Reddit account anymore, my former one was /u/domirossi.
