Mikayla Raines, an autistic woman known for making heartwarming videos of rescue foxes enjoyed by millions of people around the globe, has taken her own life at the age of 29 — a murder by a thousand cuts perpetrated through online abuse. She is survived by her husband Ethan and daughter Freya, who will continue to operate the Save a Fox rescue in her absence.
I empathize with and wish the best to them and the rescue, and to the rest of Mikayla Raines’ friends and family, and may Raines herself rest in peace. Despite not watching Save a Fox regularly in years, I have to say that the videos warmed my heart in some tough times, so it’s a huge bummer to see that someone who spread so much brightness in the world has been killed in such a horrible way. Between Mikayla Raines and Jonathan Joss, it really seems like this month has had several good people’s lives taken by the world’s ugliness.
Down with that ugliness! Destroy it, completely! Long live Great Humanity!
I remember seeing that, wasn’t it in the uk or something? It feels like by this stage anymore if you’re not a leftist you have no soul.
Kindness isn’t rewarded in the west unless it’s directed at the most vile people, giving them a pass for being vile people.
Kindness is actively punished. People here are trained to see kindness as something to beat put of others
