what a weird thing to be concerned about

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
Someone help me with the fandom. Because I'm nosy like that.

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
If this is not an alias reference then I'm not interested in this secret because Marshall owned that show!

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
My first thought was alias!

In terms of fandom, the only thing I can think of is:

1) a fandom that "sporked" fan fiction

2) the funny portmanteau couple name for Kirk/Spock (Spork!)…so maybe Star Trek TOS?

Besides that, I got nothin'

[personal profile] solticisekf 2015-01-21 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I was thinking about 2) but it doesn't fit.
Spike from Buffy? No idea. Maybe the relation is very 'somewhat' as the OP put it.

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
How does it not fit? Spock plus Kirk = Spork.

I realize people typically use "Spirk" but I've always considered that a failure of fandom when "Spork" is so much funnier.

nope, it's an anime. a spork actually shows up in the anime, lol.

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Same here.

As much as I love certain fandom, I don't want it to get popular again because I know SJWs would love to complain about some things of the canon and it'll probably restart the bashing against certain characters but now ussing SJ as an excuse. DNW

Image: a blue spork.

Text: As saddened as I am that my primary fandom - the only one that I really participated in beyond simply watching and discussing - is dead, I’m thankful before it died before rabid fandom SJWs* got ahold to it.

I rewatched the show a few weeks ago and all I could think of was what they would touch upon to whine about.

*By random fandom SJWs I mean those who misuse social justice solely to berate people who don’t ship what they do or like parts of the show they don’t.


**Spork semi-related to fandom

I will say, having been in LOTR back when the original movies came out and being in Hobbit now, that the fandom experiences are different, and I do miss the LOTR days.

I don't think it's an inconsequential thing to think about.

As if these SJW will knock on your door, send you spam mail and make you add their Tumblrs on your list. They are not literally everywhere. They can be blocked.

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
...They did get someone fired, and they have spread misinformation that lead to an innocent family getting hate messages- and those are just two of the incidents that I can think up off the top of my head.

I mean, I get what you're saying, but I feel like you're vastly underestimating how bad shit can go down, especially with websites like tumblr that make spreading information easy, and correcting misinformation hard.

[personal profile] solticisekf 2015-01-21 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not that involved in Tumblr or Facebook, even. Might be it. )

DA. Some others include a WOC accused of "blackface." She got a lot of hate for being "racist" and a lot of people boycotted her store.

http://jhenne-bean.tumblr.com/post/99074696827/wendycorduroy-nikespookers-attention-this

They tried to boycott Five Nights at Freddy's creator for being pro-life when he hadn't taken any such stance
http://fifth-dimensional.tumblr.com/post/95432020682/lazymoth-i-dont-normally-comment-on-this-kind

One person tried to get a boycott of Lush bath bombs based on the false premise of them being misogynistic and torturing a woman (she was a paid performer who wanted to raise awareness about animal testing). http://twofishies.tumblr.com/post/107556904991/before-buying-bath-bombs

These things happen all the time, and those are some of the bigger ones.
In one of my fandoms, someone tried to put up one of those "hey, watch out for ___ they're abusive" with no proof simply based on grudgewanking. There's also a longstanding history of the SJWs in fandom being anti-semetic, homophobic, racist and downright transphobic.

There is a trend of tumblr feminists being homophobic towards gay men. Here's one with one of them calling them slurs. http://poppypicklesticks.tumblr.com/post/107850932644/poorbrat-poppypicklesticks-voidbabe

and another: http://aviholic.tumblr.com/post/108397662637/rheabutter-beyonslayed-princeofthots

There was also a post (I don't have it handy, it grossed me out too much) which called out feminists for slagging Harvey Milk for not being progressive enough. That's right, gay rights activist from an earlier decade who got KILLED FOR HIS SEXUALITY was just another evil one of the "white gays."

You wanna hate life? Check the transmisandry tag on tumblr where feminists try and bully tans men into dysphoria and suicide because they're 'shitlord oppressors' or something.

I'm not against equality or a MRA or anything, but touting this as progressive is fucked up.

No, it makes perfect sense. You can't even let them get close, because if they bite you, you'll turn into one. Because SJWs are clearly actually werewolves.

nowadays whenever i watch something older, like 2000 or earlier, i have to wonder how it would be received today and i'm so glad that that's not the case

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm, I'll add my fandom guess. Dragonball Z? It's dead, as far as I know, and Vegeta wore a blue jumpsuit and had spork-like hair.

(Anonymous) 2015-01-21 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, but it's an anime, one of the main characters has a suit that shade blue, and a spork shows up in it.

So even though SJW's didn't invade your fandom, you still made it all about SJW's when you watched it again? That's a shame, like they still won in the end :/

If you were nice to a boy, loved a boy, and the boy use up your money, doesn't care for you, remove you from a life you know, and cheats on you so that you no longer married the man you thought you did-

Amy's spent her love and youth on a man who is, essentially, using her up. The world is fundamentally unfair in that situation; even, biology's unfair. There's no recourse. Lost years cannot be gotten back. Her husband broke faith with her, not law. There will be no punishment for him while for her, even "leaving" cannot restore what he took. Let's see: male divorcees vs female divorcees...the winner's obvious.

The work is feminist because it is a violent fantasy that stil draws upon a lot of issues unique to women in society. Amy's not a random act of mad violence; she subverts "femininity" as a source of purposeful and directed strength. She's an anti-hero.
