Thing is I don't see the twist, exactly. Marielle's message (or what I understood, at least) is that they think Larian didn't mean to punish anyone but was instead trying to make sexy content for the SM audience and hired someone that specialised in that. I don't really see the difference...?
In the old post of Marielle's that's what's being said, yes, but now you're implying inspirations by that content as for the reason we have these animations now. Marielle never said that.

And I posted that as an example of you derailing the thread with discussions about how others' ideas are wrong and steering it towards "Ascended Astarion is an abuser".
People are feeling very upset right now, and it feels like you're baiting them to start discussions.
