CW: rape, abuse
I haven't seen a thread about this and I'm not sure if it's widely-known. If it is, indeed, common knowledge and being discussed, I apologise. If it's been and gone and I missed it, I apologise - I searched Era before posting this. Anyway, without further preamble...
In short: A. M. Darke experienced consistent, violent, sexist and racist abuse from KoL creator Zack Johnson throughout their marriage, as well as allowing her rapist, community member "Armack" (Randy Mack) into social circles he held a lot of power over. Zack does not contest/deny any of this. Please see the Google Doc linked below for the full details, but be warned, it's not easy reading. - Thanks Oxymoron for help with this summary
The original Twitter thread.
Extensive Google Doc chronicling everything - updated, thanks EarthPainting
Zack's response
The details are very upsetting so I won't reproduce them here. I also won't summarise them at risk of my abbreviation somehow softening the horror of the situation. Please believe victims.
