I think it's really funny. Kirby made a tweet about how he doesn't ship Rickorty anymore; he says it's not only because he's a self-shipper but also because he didn't like how the community acted when he tried to say Roger drew “rape art” of him. I saw the art and noticed that Morty didn't look anything like him, like he just tries to make everything about himself. He just got pissed because nobody took his word over Roger’s and outcast Roger from the fandom like he wanted. Which is why he now says that the Rickorty community is “toxic.” I also like that in the tweet he basically implies that deep down he was trying to be understanding of people who ship Rickorty, and like he thought people were freaks for shipping it. (Look, I understand people can be uncomfortable with incest, and I respect people not wanting to see the ship going around.) But this motherfucker literally says, “The fact that the Rickorty community, we're so gung ho about their ship this year that they were blinded when I tried to tell them someone was drawing art of representation of an OC to look like a Morty based on me and raping me because I was no longer their friend?” like the dude is trying to make it seem like this was ship discourse when it WASN'T. The truth is, people saw through his shit and didn't want him in the community anymore. I'm glad he's not there anymore, and he can stay the fuck away from that side. Sorry that this is so long. I just got really pissed because every time something bad that he causes in a fandom happens, he then declares it's “toxic” when the only person who made it toxic is him.

Lolwut? xD Yeah, I asked Roger about that and he told me it was just a Morty that he made. I think he even used the idea after that to make his older Morty (I hope I'm not confusing morty artists now).
It seems more likely that people just saw the bullshit Kirby was spewing and shunned him for that. Roger is still being shunned cuz of that slip-up with the Carl account (which is beyond idiotic still).
He can say everything he wants about me but "holding a grudge", he still takes the cake on that one.
