Is this bud rot?

I noticed this dark spot, and I really hope that it's not bud rot. This strain does have some purple coloration (some trichomes are purple, purple stems, etc), but I can't help shake the feeling that it is affected with bud rot. However, there are no fuzzy patches of mold, and the "affected" area has stayed the same area size, so I really don't know what to do.

Looks like maybe bud worm? Seems that nuggs main stem was severed from a bug, or foul play. Inspect it break it off look for black dots of bud worm poop or the worm itself. Hopefully it broke some other way, GL.

You guys were extremely right. Sadly, I didn't see this until now and I cut off the whole top bud and threw it away because I thought it was contaminated with bud rot. I found the little guy in there munching on the stem, and when I cut off the bud (this was tragic as it was the biggest bud [yes, yes, the kola]) I cut it up and found all those black poop dots.

Did I have to dispose of it anyway? Or did I just kill the kola in bad faith?
