Re: Stupid things to get mad over

[(Anonymous)]

I've seen people complaining about getting into arguments when they post negative shit in a tag and I'm like "...what did you expect to happen?" It's that whole "wanting to criticize without being criticized" desire that annoys me. You want to wank on tumblr, go right ahead and talk shit in the general tag, it's your right and privilege. You want to speak into the void with peace, don't tag it where random strangers with too much time on their hands can find it.

I don't mind discussion. But I don't understand why people accuse me of trolling if I write a critical post about a movie or a character and then tag it with the name of that movie or character.

That's what the post is about. Why then shouldn't I use the tag?

I don't have a problem with going through people's responses to my posts (I FREAKING LOVE the back and forth exchange) but when I post something critical of a character's treatment or a movie, it'd be nice to be able to have a discourse rather than being accused of being a hater or a bigot or a troll and told to get the fuck off the tag and stop spreading hate.

I just think that reaction is a bit…much.

But here's the thing -- you should be allowed to criticize something without PERSONALLY being criticized in turn. Saying "I don't like this character or scene or plot line" is just you giving your opinion/analysis of a piece of fiction. I have no problem if someone wants to reply with "I disagree for X,Y, and Z reason."

But I don't at all understand why I should have to put up with people personally attacking me -- calling me a troll or a mindless hater -- when all I'm doing is stating my opinion. I'm not saying my opinion is objective fact or that you have to agree with me. Just that it's how I've interpreted the piece of media.

I do absolutely think that people have the right to criticize a work without expecting to be criticized in turn. Criticizing a PERSON for their opinion is called an ad hominem attack.

That doesn't mean I expect my opinion to go UNCHALLENGED, however. On the contrary, I welcome it. I welcome the chance for someone to change my mind or to offer a new perspective. I've actually fallen in love with some characters that I used to hate by discussing them with knowledgeable and open-minded fans.
