(Anonymous) 2018-07-14 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)Where'd you get that idea?
Why do you just know you'd disagree with any examples the OP had?
Maybe I wouldn't. Anything's possible. But in my experience with people who talk like OP does, they almost always have a lot of definitions and ideas that I disagree with. The idea that there's a "cycle of outrage that provides their source of leisure time", for instance, very often is used of people who are making very reasonable criticisms of bad things. The idea of "self-flagellating" and "taking in bigoted rhetoric and spitting it back out under the guise of progress" - almost anything could be meant by those ideas, and I see no reason to think that OP's idea of "bigoted rhetoric" is one that I would agree with.
Nothing about OP said is actually wrong, but their language is so vague and imprecise that it could really mean almost anything. And in practice, my experience is that saying things like this is usually used as a criticism of paying any kind of attention at all to social justice.

(Anonymous) 2018-07-14 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)Everything I've heard about their discord servers shows them as remorseless bullies and doxxers. Or incredibly predatory, creepy people wanting to basically gaslight and manipulate young fans while calling them-selves fandom mom while they show the minors nsfw/porn for the purpose of telling them why its bad and using them as human sheilds for "think of the children" emotional manipulation and aversion of responsibility.
I have little sympathy towards the bullies who have driven people to and to near suicide and ended a life over what was supposed to be fun. Was it worth it?

(Anonymous) 2018-07-14 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)A few years ago I recall instances of teens declaring that the internet is for children/teens and adults are invading it. And antis have been those creepy fandom mom types while decrying other adult fandom members as "gross" and "creepy.

That said I've found that a lot of antis are young and impressionable peeps that tend to parrot whatever they hear is right and wrong. Can't really blame them since we've all been through that phase where you thought not being like "the other perverts on the internet" made you cool somehow and they will eventually (hopefully) grow up from it. Adults should know better, though.
The ones I can definitely never forgive are the type who actively bully and harass others. I've seen it happen to the point of watching an 18 yo girl calling another 18 yo girl's work to tell them she was a "pedophile" just because she liked lolita fashion and actively reblogged it. Or the infamous Zamii incident. Those people make 4chan look pristine in comparison.
