Haven't spotted it posted separately anywhere, but here's the timestamp from Starfury's live video yesterday, where Sean shared a montage of bits from #RDC7:

So this is how @starfuryevents.bsky.social
decided to respond to me sharing my email in the RDC Facebook group.

I have left the group and will not be attending any future RDC events, which is a serious shame, but I will not be spoken to like this.

Good afternoon, 

In order to explain my concerns, I would first like to introduce myself. My name is Felix Fern, I am a transgender activist who has collaborated with groups such as Stonewall and Mermaids, I've been cited as an expert in my field in many mainstream media outlets, written for some myself, appeared in several television interviews over topics regarding transgender rights in the UK, and have been celebrated by outlets such as Cosmopolitan for my work. 

I am also a fannibal. I attended Red Dragon Con 7 this year, and I had a truly wonderful time. Of course, one of the main highlights of that experience was the guests. 

Although I have not yet booked my ticket for Red Dragon Con 8, I was incredibly excited to learn the current lineup of guests, and last night that excitement turned to dread as I learned what one of the guests, Scott Thompson, posted on social media. It has left me feeling uncomfortable with purchasing a ticket for the event. 

(There is a screenshot of a tweet made by Scott Thompson that reads, "I stand with Graham Linehan. @Glinner")

This is Scott Thompson posting support for Graham Linehan, a comedy writer who has, in recent years, completely tarnished his reputation due to a disturbing hate campaign against transgender individuals and their rights, and earlier this month, he was arrested for posting hateful social media posts inciting violence towards trans women. 

I have personally been a victim of harassment and defamation from Linehan, whom I even had to report to the police when his actions made me feel unsafe due to our living in the same city. I have also collaborated with other victims of his, such as actor David Paisley, who had to take Linehan to court for describing him as a "paedophile" for being an ally to the trans community. 

I won't go into details on Linehan's extremely extensive track record of hateful actions because that information is widely known and readily available, and Scott Thompson is not responsible for Linehan's actions.

He is, however, responsible for his own.

The Hannibal fan community is incredibly diverse, as well as having a notably high population of queer people, and that includes a huge amount of transgender fans and trans-friendly allies. There have been several essays and even two versions of a book published on the themes of transition and change in Hannibal that appeal to the trans community. As such, I presently do not feel safe or welcome attending Red Dragon Con 8 as a marginalised person, knowing that one of the guests vocally supports hatred and discrimination towards my community, hatred that I have personally been a victim of. I am concerned for all of the trans attendees, many of whom are also younger than myself and more vulnerable, many of whom will be attending alone. 

Unless Scott Thompson is willing to publish a public retraction and apology and make it clear that he is not a threat to the trans community, I do not believe that he should be welcome as a guest at Red Dragon Con 8. It pains me to say that, as Jimmy is one of my favourite characters in the show and I was so excited about him being a guest, I am incredibly saddened to be sending this email. 

I look forward to hearing from you regarding this matter. 

Kind regards, 

Felix F Fern

Today I have emailed Starfury / Sean Harry regarding my concern over a recent social media post made by Red Dragon Con 8 guest, Scott Thompson.

I would urge any other concerned folks to also contact Starfury.

I loved RDC7 this year. It was full of fun and silliness. I want to thank all the guests for being there. It was a great pleasure to see see Hugh and Jeremy again while meeting the other guests. And I loved seeing my Fannibal friends.

In addition to the Fannibal friends I met at the con, London was also an opportunity to see my Euro hockey friends again!! Our last time together was the Global Series in Stockholm. I've made such wonderful friends all over the world, I often have my faith in humanity restored through them 💕 #RDC7

I also finally met @nunar.bsky.social !!! She is a dear friend, and I love her art. She was commissioned to draw the boys from my #HockeyFiction WIP and she did SUCH a tremendous job! Love her and so very glad to finally meet her! #RDC7

I met @wisesnail.bsky.social for the very first time!!! I'm such a fan of her art, having purchased numerous postcards and calendars over the years. So amazing to finally meet the talented artist! #RDC7

There was no artist alley or exhibit hall at #RDC7 and it's too bad cuz we had money to spend! A pop-up appeared two doors down from our hotel room and I gladly gave them money for these authentic badges!! They were selling art as well, from a friend who did not come to the con. I bought one piece:

This was the "poster" I had everyone sign. It's a clipping from the Emmy consideration magazine released when Hannibal was on TV... I collected it KNOWING it would look gorgeous with siggys!! Jeremy Davies wanted to sign in red, so I let him. Did not expect Hugh to take up all the space! #RDC7

Ofc, my main dish Hugh Dancy! I bought two siggys, I wanted one for the poster everyone signed, and one on my Candide playbill. Saw his incredible performance out in Cincy and I got his siggy there, but somehow it disappeared! I have my suspicions. This time, I got it with a personalization! #RDC7

My first time experiencing the absolute fireball of energy that is Ricky Whittle. OH MY GOSH THIS GUY. He was an ice breaker for many of us who were to shy to speak, going around giving hugs to everyone. I loved his positive energy and decided to buy a photo just to be able to get his siggy #RDC7

Ok, some #RDC7 show and tell! (Since I'm thoroughly annoyed with work haha)

This is the photo I had autographed by Demore Barnes. He's a total sweetheart. I tweeted with him frequently during the rewatches yrs ago on Twt, he even followed me back!🥰 Love this man. Told him that Tobias' story really

I took photos of some of my #RDC7 loot over the weekend. Might share some stories and such later today, depending on how busy work is. I miss Fannibals.

I found it funny and endearing how, everyone who met me at #RDC7 couldn't quite place who I was or if they followed me, UNTIL @tigerprawn.bsky.social said, "she posts a lot about hockey..." and then suddenly, lightbulbs lit and everyone was like, "OH YEAH!"

LOL yes, I am that hockey Hannibal freak!

I do feel that in honour of Jeremy Davies' amazing #rdc7 jacket every fannibal should move on from the bird app over to bluesky but that's just me🤷‍♂️

So grateful for getting to talk with this man about loss, even more grateful for every fannibal that came up to me & shared their loss, too💕

There's a lot of impressions left from #rdc7 but the one that strikes me most, now, is what an honour it has been to be amongst such passionate, kind, extraordinary human beings. My life is brighter thanks to all of you💕

There were a lot of moots at #RDC7 and I'm sorry I wasn't even aware of who was going...nor was I openly telling ppl that I was going. It's my fault, you can blame me. I just didn't know what to expect, and I let myself be my introverted wallflower self bc I was overwhelmed! Next time, I'll know ❤️

Here's my #RDC7 haul!! Not as impressive as some I've seen, but I'm personally loving how much Hugh/Will is present 😍😍😍

My roommate for the #RDC7 con was my German friend who is a fellow Fannibal (Hannibal fan) but who I've successfully turned into an ice hockey fan. Hockey-Hannibal friends are the bestest!!

Photo of three piles of fanmade NBC Hannibal stickers- one of Will Graham in a backless sweater next to words saying "Hello Doctor Lecter", one of Will Graham with a drippy red lollipop over words saying "BAD DOG", and one of Will Graham nude and holding a tropical drink in front of words saying "Sun's Out Buns Out"

A few fannibals had previously mentioned wanting stickers but not being able to attend #RDC7- is that still the case?? I have a few extras I can sell for cost of shipping/handling and I’ll set up a kofi or something for it, if there’s any interest

Spent one day of the #RDC7 con in actual London trying to "see the city" in my disabled state. Spine did not like this, but I got some photos! This is one of my favorites.
