And if she leans into the ambiguity just right, she can absolutely rebuild off of it. The internet loves a redemption arc just as much as it loves a takedown. You’re right about her core fans being the foundation — the ones who either don’t care about the drama or think it’s overblown will stick around as long as she keeps feeding them what they came for. That alone is enough to start climbing back. And the “mask off” angle is wild because it’s become such a flexible narrative. To some, she got exposed. To others, she exposed how vicious and hypocritical the community can be. Like you said — not saying that’s true, but it’s a powerful narrative she could lean on without even explicitly saying it. At this point, it’s less about truth and more about which version of the story gains the most traction. And honestly, with how chaotic the space is, she might actually pull it off.
