Here's my take on the matter, I think if you look at any of my posts regarding Fang in a vacuum, they could look bad and be painted as such, because I was reading him as not mafia and took opportunities to go after other players, transparently.
But I think specifically if you ISO me honestly and look at the cumulative amount of interaction between us you really have to force a narrative of "distancing". I was holding water for the guy since he first got suspected in the first couple pages. In spite of that, I did vote him multiple times because the burden of his lies was just too great for me to overlook.
But I think if I were distancing I would look a lot different. At no point did I do that little dance and a jig a scum partner does where they type up a post epicly owning their partner before casting them to the shadow realm. I didn't even *try* to make myself look good when I did vote for him, something I'd obviously do if I was bussing.
This is preemptive since Ratchet actually hasn't posted his "case", but I think that's because he doesn't have one.
