It's all about how you explain this sort of thing to people. I'm in another fandom where there are misunderstandings or seemingly disrespectful statements from people who just don't know.

The HBO war fandom, so Band of Brothers, The Pacific, Generation Kill - all true stories told by actors, which people don't realise. We've had all sorts of things recently, eg. "omg why did McAvoy's character die? screw you, writers!" and we had to explain nicely that actually, Private James Miller really did die in Holland.

If you get your words and tone right, they take it well and understand, because most of the time they genuinely didn't know it was about real people or that they would be seen as disrespectful. It's only if you get the explanation wrong (even just a slightly-off tone would do it) that you upset people.

I understand what it's like to be so passionate about your subject when you know so much about it and others don't, but it's just a case of finding exactly the right way of putting things so you show people that while they may not have all the knowledge yet, they can learn and that you and others can help, and you're not angry that they didn't know.

Well it's hard to convey that in text and I think I'm saying things nicely and others don't.

Like I said before, if it was just a handful of people misinterpreting your tone through text, I could buy that. But when it's a routine thing, then it's no longer misinterpretation; you really are being an asshole.

Well it's gotten better. I've stopped being so angry and lashing out, some anons have agreed with me.
