Same, anon. I really hate being mean even in games where I think it'd be exciting to play a villain. I literally have to restart the game from my last save if I even accidentally am mean to someone.

OP here, just wanted to add: when do I see a streamer or YouTuber consistently stick to "hey girls and boys" or "hey everyone" or even "hey assholes" or something else non-stereotyping, my respect for them goes up a tiny bit. Takes literally half a second.

That's a nice feeling. I feel great when I dicover that I still like a fic that I enjoyed when I was a teen. The vast majority of them are too simple or/and cliche. Many books I liked in the past are so antifeminist I can't help but facepalm.

I'm going to see what it's about, the cover looks great.

To be fair, I think that specific example is a product of how the Civil War movie was set up, in that the sides were pretty explicitly Tony vs Steve-on-behalf-of-Bucky. The movie itself set the ship up in opposition to the character, more so than it being a general shippers vs the world thing. You can kinda see that because it doesn't really work in reverse. If I say I like Tony and don't like Steve, it's not as likely people are going to accuse me of being, what, a rabid Tony/Rhodey fan? Tony doesn't really have a balancing ship on his side. (I have seen Tony/Stephen Strange used as a balancing ship after the fact, as in Steve has Bucky so Tony acquires Strange, but it wasn't a thing when the movie came out I don't think). So I think that one is kinda specific to the set-up of the movies.

Which is not to say that it's not a thing that paranoid shipping and characters being primarily associated with single ships can lead to bashing and paranoia. I have seen that in other fandoms. I just think this isn't necessarily a pure example.

Mark McKinney is an absolute delight. Great secret. Unfortunately, I had heard his real voice before watching Superstore, so I got sort of the opposite effect.

Ha ha, I was listening to some NPR podcast (Wait Wait, I think) and someone there made the same remark.
