What fandom? I'd like to see the drama.

K Project. Thankfully it's mostly died down now (or at least it seems to have, like I said I finally blocked the people causing most of the trouble so at least if they're still at it I can't see it) but if you go back far enough in the tags you can find it.

Thanks. I can understand if they find such pairings squicky or a bit skeevy, tbh. If they're limiting it to their blog, tagging the fandom, and not the tag for the ship, I don't see the harm. But yeah, they should block it after that.

The moment they start attacking others for liking it, however, is the minute I lose any sympathy. Like actually going out of their way and messaging/attacking specific users.

Eh, I hope it doesn't serm like I'm excusing it. Sometimes you just need to vent and I get that.

I'm actually not a particular fan of that kind of art either. If the person who disliked it had kept the post complaining about it confined to their blog and not tagged it with the fandom tag or maybe even made a post like "Hey, person posting that stuff, would you mind tagging it as 'underage' or something so the rest of us could block it?" I'd have no issue -- and for the record, I saw the art that started the mess and there was actually only one picture out the couple posted that was anything like explicit, and the poster did tag the pairing. To be fair, it's a pairing I didn't even know existed before that point but it was still something that people could use to blacklist it (which I did, in fact). My problem is when someone feels the need to publicly and constantly dictate who is "ruining the fandom" or whatever just because their tastes don't align. I know the same person has gone on rants before about other fandom kinks they don't like -- for example, as soon as Abusive Dad character was revealed the fandom, like basically every other fandom since the dawn on time with less-than-perfect parental figures, started having art and talk about possible sexual abuse and this person went off about that too. (I think part of this for me is just a disbelieving "What are you, new?" feeling. It's the same with the anon hate they got, while I can't really support sending people hate anonymously and think it's not very constructive, at the same time I can't help but think "Well what did you expect, when one person posts something you don't like and you go on a rant about how most of the fandom sucks?") The whole thing just gave me the feeling of a few drama queens who somehow decided that they are the arbitrators of what is and is not Ruining Fandom and that bugs me. I don't like people who think they get to dictate how everyone else should enjoy their fandom.
