Re: No sarcasm.
I think this is both true and obvious.
Look. There has been bad behavior on all sides, and I have no interest in being an apologist, particularly as I have been only tangentially involved in most of it myself.
I am as tired of the anti-Zutara icons as I am of anything else. I believe the purpose of shipping communities should be to share fanwork and celebrate a common interest, not to mock and tear down other parts of fandom. There is a reason I don't allow that kind of thing on my own community. There is a reason I spend most of my time in slash fandom. There is a reason I don't participate in capslock communities more than once or twice a year, and a reason why I almost always regret it when I do.
I am as familiar with
But to be completely honest, visiting the two central communities even for a few minutes sets me right back to where I was two years ago, infuriated that a small but influential core of mean-spirited people have so thoroughly set the tone for that part of fandom, such that no one inside it even seems to notice anymore.
I was a Zuko/Katara shipper when I came into fandom. (http://ali-wildgoose.livejournal.com/281675.html) There are reasons why I'm not one anymore. Many have to do with the show. Just as many of them don't.
