For context the person in red (dark red is their sock account) was boasting about mass reporting the artist for art theft on their blog to get them banned from all the sites they’re posting art on so the “I’m not accusing you of art theft” is a lie and they’re trying to keep their trolling civil so it doesn’t get removed

    What possible reason could one have to accuse someone of stealing a third person’s art without proof?

    The troll wants to get the artist banned out of jealousy/spite, hoping the mod takes the bait. Their blog makes their motivations more obvious but the troll is pretending to be a civil “concerned citizen” here particularly on the bright red account.

    Sidenote: how is this “off-site drama”?

    I think the mod just saw how the links were to places like YouTube and other sites and assumed it must be off site drama without realizing Red is a troll.
