(Anonymous) 2015-04-08 12:13 pm (UTC)(link)What is hypocritical about it? Guess what? Not all fanfics are the same. Some, for example, have Kirk and Spock meeting after Tarsus and then falling in love after that. It's a point of divergence.
You seem to be under the impression that most Kirk/Spock fan fiction just takes Uhura our and sticks Kirk into her place. Some does, yeah. And they're OVERWHELMINGLY bad. But a lot of it DOESN'T and instead there's unique scenarios where they get together. Or writers try to make sense of the lunacy that is the reboot films.
And like I said -- Spuhura fans are free to do this too. Just because the canon relationship is poorly written does not prevent Spuhura fans from writing GREAT fan fictions. The same as Spirk fans.
I also see that you haven't even tried to answer my points. You've used personal attack after personal attack after personal attack. Guess what? Even if I was Hitler and I shipped Spock/Sarek, that wouldn't make my points about the writing any less true.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-08 12:55 pm (UTC)(link)An ad hominem is an attack on a person's character instead of their argument.
Say Stalin says "Don't invade Russia in winter."
Attacking Stalin's character doesn't make that statement any less true. Stalin was murderous dictator, but he's still right that you shouldn't invade Russia in winter.
Same with accusing him of bias -- Stalin is the leader of Russia so OF COURSE he doesn't want anyone to attack them at all. But, again, that doesn't make his statement less true.
I used an extreme example because I was worried you wouldn't get the point if I used something a tad more subtle.
