I have a story to tell about my experiences with a former friend who is a Changed fan.
So back in late 2021 I met someone on a game programming Discord server as I was sharing the development of a C#-based game engine I was working on at the time. It turns out he was writing his own software for the 3DS (he owned a devkit for one) and was interested in that sort of thing. We became friends and exchanging stuff together. One day I decided to start ranting about Changed and how the developer is a paedophile to him, since at the time, I still considered him a friend. That was until he started to share his Changed shit with me and said "Well the game's fetish-y but at least Puro's cute." I didn't talk to him since but later on in the server we met in I found him posting a lot of Changed gifs. If I had known better this would have never happened. Recently I have discovered that he is friends with Charem and would (and still is) frequently post in his Discord server. I then confronted him about it and he said "I'm not really friends with him anymore after the whole controversy" which is false as he, as of him posting that, recently posted in there.
Sorry for my wall of fuckin' text, just wanted to post it since it's kind of related I guess.
