I am aware that Kurt has turned back around, so some people might think I'm going to pick this story back up again - maybe you're expecting a chapter in which Herobrine sent that pink sheep to try to tell him to turn around and feels relieved and has his faith in this "strange human" restored when Kurt takes the hint - but I'm not. My support for Kurt, and the fact that he makes me sick now, has never had anything to do with which direction he's walking in Minecraft.
I saw (half of) his video in which he turned around, and I heard him saying things like "I'm grateful for all the support and kind words" and "I'm not saying 'Oh, this was a bad idea', I think it was a good idea". The fact that he's turned around with this attitude does not fix things, it makes things worse. Shutting out everyone who felt hurt and betrayed, and only acknowledging the people too new to the channel or too sheep-like to care that they were being abused and extorted, is NOT appreciating your fans - on the contrary, it's downright narcissistic.
Kurt has fallen from grace, and the things he said in the video in which he turned around have only served to prove that fact beyond any doubt. Other people might be too shallow to care about being betrayed and forgive him now that he's turned around and ended this stunt, but I for one care about whether or not someone I support respects my rights as a separate human being with my own life, and Kurt has betrayed us all whether you agree with me or not. THIS STORY IS CLOSED, and that is more final now than ever.
I'm sorry. I know a lot of people love this story - I did, too, when I first started writing it - and many people won't understand where I'm coming from and see me as a whiny bitch who needs to get over herself. I know most people in the world don't use their brains enough to really think everything through and understand that Kurt has become an asshole, and those people who do use their brains that much are so much in the minority that everyone tells them they're the ones being stupid; I expect nothing else in the reviews of this story that I will get now. But even if you don't understand what I'm saying, at least acknowledge that this story has been MY work, MY fan tribute to Kurt, and I'M the one who has to put my time and creative energy into writing this story, and I have the right to say I'm not going to do it anymore.
