Teens Admit to Trolling Tumblr is an article about the otherkin subculture as it exists on tumblr, written by Nitasha Tiku for the Betabeat blog owned by The New York Observer. In it the activities of the trio of trolls blogging as Prince-Koyangi are described, as well as TheDarkEricDraven. In particular, the article quotes Koyangi's final post in which they state:

Consider the following. You have created a community in which someone can claim to be an autistic pangender asexual demiromantic trans-Asian cat otherkin and not be immediately denounced as a troll. Whether you think these identities are valid or not, you find it plausible that someone would believe they are a Korean cat with autism and appropriate social justice terminology to defend that belief. What does that say about the state of your community? (And that’s not even starting on the people who actually supported us).
