Comments

[philstar22]

Oh, there were general comments. I was talking about the LJ comment page in general. They changed the setup of how one comments, and it didn't work for this community.

I like the fewer secrets too. Although I don't like the whole "people who feel strongly about social justice issues are social justice warriors who don't actually really care" stuff that has a lot of tone-argument parts to it. There at least seemed to be a more even split on LJ, but it seems like some of the stronger social justice people left.

Oh! Sorry, dealing with migraine right now. Yeah, I remember the comments change, and the removing of subject lines, which was really important for the community what with spoilers and trigger warnings and all.

I'm not so fond of that either, caring a lot about social justice issues, but I find that when I post about issues, people tend to agree. It seems to be the extremists that people are upset about (and I can understand there; I have seem some stuff that has made me go o.O like the whole black Mozart thing that people were actually bullying people for not believing, on Tumblr, or the Tumblr poster who insisted Jasmine was a transgender princess and told people who said they liked her headcanon but that her claim that Disney intended her to be trans and we all needed to recognize her as such and anyone who didn't was transphobic -- and I must say, I am one of the people who saw that post and thought it was an AWESOME headcanon -- I'm talking about those types, not people who are genuinely passionate, which I count myself part of).

What annoys me is that it has become a thing to complain about SJWs and some people throw the baby out with the bathwater. Not all people who care about social issues are like that. Sigh.

Some of the more extreme people on LJ, I can't say I miss. There were some who were really awesome, and I miss them, but man, there were some that were just... out there, and I honestly wonder if they were trolling.

Ew. Migraine's are not fun.

I'm procrastinating on writing a paper that is due at 5 about a topic I don't really care about.

Yes, the extremists are annoying (though I'd argue that the extremists on the other side are worse), but the community has decided that everyone who is passionate is an extremist and that the extremists represent a majority. Which is frustrating. And there are the people who don't want social justice to get in the way of their enjoyment of something and use the SJW label to try to silence people who want to talk about the problems in something (I don't get what's so hard to understand about the idea of "I like this in spite of _________")
