Well, I think the discussion has merit at its core. But on the other hand, some of those who spoke out were attacked to the point where people were getting personal about their IRL lives, etc, among lots of other mindfuckery crap.

So I can kind of see where the OP is coming from. I think it's important that people express their views because that's what blogging is for and they shouldn't stop due to a few idiots who can't carry on a civil conversation. But at the same time, the fallout from Racefail '09 is pretty insane and it does feel tiring in a way.

[vivalana.livejournal.com]

There's been a lot of fallout, but some of said fallout have been very constructive. Media criticism is always good. It sucks when people are attacked personally.

I understand how tiring it gets for some people. But something so systemic as prejudice, racism, and white privilege is not something we can turn off, so neither should the discussion of it be. In a way, discussion is easier for others to ignore. Flip the channel or read a new LJ. Could one do the same for our world?

[continuum.livejournal.com]

Definitely not saying people should stop writing about it, considering if people don't post about it, where else are they gonna be heard as effectively? Like you said, scrolling past is easy. I've found all of the discussion really interesting, fallout aside.

I guess I just meant to say that I don't think the sentiment of the secret was as STFU YOU'RE ONLY ALLOWED TO WRITE WHAT I WANT as some people here (not you) seem to feel it was, though perhaps it could've been better worded. Or possibly I'm giving the poster too much benefit of the doubt.

Or possibly I'm giving the poster too much benefit of the doubt.

I think you might be. Seriously, I tend to skip secrets I disagree with, but with that secret, my hackles were raised. High. First of all, there is no single "point" with what's going on here. And if there was, it wouldn't be something so redundant as "racism = bad, but rather, the point is that racism is still alive and well in an industry who has many prominent figures who refuse to acknowledge this. Not only that, but who use their powers to try to silence the fans who do.

The "Can everyone STFU about this and go right some porn already?" was just the cherry bomb on the crap cake.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:
