Couldn't the same thing be said to the people complaining in the first place? Is complaining not cranky or toxic behavior? If fandom isn't giving you what you want, maybe get off the internet and try a new hobby?

I feel like it depends on the scale, personally, since as anon above said, I'm sure there's been something all of us wish there was more of at one point or another.

Saying in your own blog or twitter, or whatever, "I do wish there was more x or y." is different to me than crashing into z/q fandom spaces all, "WHY ARE YOU NOT CREATING CONTENT ABOUT X AND Y!!"

Sure, phrasing and context matter. OP's example was "there's no fic for my pairing/ship/fandom," so that's the phrasing I'm referring to as complaining.

If you're complaining that there's literally nothing for you in fandom... but you're telling other people they're cranky and need to get off the internet... um, well I'm just wondering how much self-awareness you have, I guess?

one is aggression aimed at a person, one is aggression (if it can be called that) aimed at nothing. it's not the same thing

+100000

How are people not grasping the distinction?

...no? Someone who's complaining about lack of fic isn't directing any toxicity towards another person. Someone who's telling someone else to shut up IS directing toxicity at another person. How on earth is this not obvious?
