"EVERYBODY, STOP HAVING FUN WITHOUT MY APPROVAL RIGHT NOW!"

(Anonymous) 2015-11-08 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Well, no. Not liking something isn't the same thing as insisting that everyone else stop doing what you dislike. For example, I hate licorice and freely admit to hating licorice. But if you or anyone else wants to eat it, I'm fine with that. You can have my share!

On the other hand, I find it annoying when people conflate a differing opinion with censorship.

Do you feel the need to shout your hatred of licorice from the rooftops while calling those who like it "slutty fake candy fans?" Because there's a difference between "I do not like this thing" and "people who like this thing I do not like are the cancer that's killing fandom."

nayrt - How is posting a secret to FS "shouting hatred from the rooftops"? This is a community where people post their secrets and opinions about fandom. Also note: nowhere does the secret imply that the fans dressing up like Harley are fake fans. Those are your words, not the OP's.

"people who like this thing I do not like are the cancer that's killing fandom."

Those words and/or that sentiment does not appear anywhere in the secret. OP expressed a personal dislike of how often people dress up like Harley Quinn and thinks it betrays a lack of originality. That's hardly over the top hate, like you are implying.

"FFS, fandom"

Yes, it does.
