Did you happen to miss that a lot of actual bigots, no question about it, are still in fan fic rants? They're not getting chased off unless they do something incredibly stupid like PMing the mods or deleting, and then they get banned.

Meanwhile, a bunch of the people getting dogpiled out of the community (leaving by choice because it's too hostile) have Asperger's or ESL and the reason they got dogpiled out is because of saying, "I'm sorry, I won't use that word any more" in a way that wasn't written exactly according to fan fic rant's community standards.

Fan fic rants is very discriminatory towards Asperger's and ESL.

When the community standards are so high that people who get viewed as oversensitive SJ warriors on 99% of the rest of the internet get viewed as bigots on fan fic rants, something is wrong.

It's also wrong that these community standards aren't written anywhere, but newbies are supposed to simply absorb them by watching lots of dogpiles and sorting through the mod tags before ever commenting for the first time (but that isn't written down anywhere either).

If it really was about getting rid of the bigots I'd be with it. It's not about that, and don't fool yourself that it is. It's about making people from every disadvantaged group feel that they, themselves, are the bigots unless they modify their words to these incredibly high standards.

Because these standards are higher than most feminist blogs, activist websites and the like, they catch people by surprise.

When people are surprised that "stupid" and "lame" and "crazy" and "politically correct" are all considered slurs, they are told they should not have been surprised because this is what is expected of all non-bigoted people, and explaining politely to newcomers instead of dogpiling is too hard and makes things all about the bigot's hurt feelings instead of the slurred group's hurt feelings.

This happens even when newbies say they are sorry and agree never to use those words again.

Because of this set-up with the nearly-secret community standards that are way higher than expected and most attempts to apologize are seen as renewed attacks, the community is guaranteed to face constant ongoing crises and require lots of defense from resident SJ warriors.

Members are socially rewarded for dogpiling, dogpiling is used as entertainment, and there is a lot of back-patting about running off all the bigots even when some obvious bigots are still around and some rather innocuous people who apologized profusely were run off.

Fan fic rants is very discriminatory towards Asperger's

You do realize that one of the most vocal SJ warriors on [livejournal.com profile] fanficrants has Asperger Syndrome? So your argument about ffr being discriminating towards people with AS doesn't hold any weight.

DA

Mind identifying yourself then?

(Anonymous) 2011-11-27 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not me. They offhandedly mentioned it somewhere once. That's how I know.

(Anonymous) 2011-11-27 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, my mistake.

Any community that requires very precise wordings and rejects any apologies not worded exactly that way is discriminating against Asperger's, just like any building with a bunch of steps and no wheelchair ramp is discriminating against anyone who happens to be in a wheelchair.

That's like saying the architect for the building who struck off the wheelchair ramp from the building plans weren't being discriminatory because she's in a wheelchair. Nope, don't matter. If your making it harder for your own kind, don't matter where that hardness comes from. Any origin of hardness hurts just the same. Putting burdens on people who don't want more.

Besides, everyone who gioes there knows there are still plenty of bigots there. Doesn't matter what categories people is in. They can be very discriminatory all the same.

lol self-diagnosed over the internet isn't legit, nonnie. Theo isn't autistic, he's just fat.

(Anonymous) 2011-12-03 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
1) The person in question isn't self-diagnosed. Also self-diagnosed =/= automatically not legit.

2) It's not Theo.

3) You know squat, because Theo is underweight.

4) You're a prick.

He should eat a sandwich, not midol.
