Mulpan uploaded his completion of Save As by PAHC to YouTube, with the title "Ge? o%me?tr!y d^as$h", and a video description indicating that he believed the level to be an average modern glitch effect level. However, what he may not have been aware of was the context of the level. As many of you know, Save As is meant to be a visual and auditory representation of the effects of Alzheimer's Disease, created with the purpose of raising awareness of the ailment. It features a custom song requested by PAHC himself, and gradually more confusing effects as the level progresses. A lot of thought and effort was put into the level, and most people in the community are aware of why it exists. However, it would seem that Mulpan was not. One side of the community believes Mulpan was disregarding the context and purpose of the level, or that even if he didn't know, he shouldn't have insulted the level in the first place. They believe that it was made very clear why the level exists, through Nexus and Juniper's videos, and the level's description. The other side believes Mulpan is innocent, claiming that ignorance of the level's message is reasonable justification for his remark. If he knows nothing about the level other than it uses glitchy effects, then how was he supposed to know that is was meant to raise awareness for a disease? You cannot expect someone to read the description of other completion videos and the level itself. Because of this drama, Mulpan has decided to take a break from GD for (at least) the next few days. Do you believe Mulpan was ignoring the level's message and deserves the hate? Or do you believe he isn't at fault for what was shown in his video?

He needs to reexamine his ableist worldview with a view as to correcting his view to align with the common academic wisdom with regards to intersectionality and neurotypical privilige and reanalyze the neurotypiconormativity of his statements and the general aura given off by the ableist ignorance related to the neurotypical privilige systemically present within capitalism while thanking the labor of disabled and mentally ill activists who have been the backbone of this movement with regards to deconstructing and dismantling the oppression of mentally disabled and ill folks because we need to keep the same energy for alzh*imers-positive folks who have long been shunned and oppressed from society when it comes to treatment both in the medical and human sense of folks living with alzh*imers and also reexamine the intersection of alzh*imers with additional axes of oppression such as race and gender with regards to the specific oppressions faced by folks belonging to more than one oppressed group because their oppression is not merely the sum of their constituent oppressed groups and how these oppressions can intensify each other because the systems of oppressions create intersections of folks whose voices are too often silenced and go unheard and also engage in some introspection as with regards to his own neurotypical privilige and how his actions affect the system of oppressions which all too often hurts folks marginalized in multiple ways the most especially with regards to trans folks with alzh*imers and how that can affect the systems going forward and engage in some self-educations regarding knowledges and wisdoms published in feminisms, antiracisms and resources published online while continuously thanking marginalized folks for their labor because their activism too often goes unnoticed and unheard and dismissed through micro- and macro-aggressions which are not only an attack on the individual but also an attack on all marginalized folks and check his privilige with regards to the normalization of marginalization through micro- and macro-aggressions.

I really don't see the situation as a big deal. I only see it as just a misinterpretation of art. And regardless of the topic that the level is trying to address, it IS a glitchy level, and I feel that Ge?o%me?tr!y d^as$h is a description of it that makes sense. An apology wouldn't hurt, but I don't want to hate someone just because their view of a piece of art was missing the point.
