I'm sorry increased awareness and sensitivity to certain issues ruined your good time.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it does kind of ruin the good time when some mewling quim comes up with stupid-ass reasons to attack an author in the name of SOSHUL JUSTICE!!!!!

I'm sorry you prefer boring stories with no emotional connection than things that might actually provoke a reaction in the reader for good or ill. Enjoy your tech support manuals.

lol at your unironic use of "mewling quim"

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
actually, that was meant as a joke, I just got done have an argument with my roommate's friend about that.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh good! I prefer jokes to Lokistanning any day!

(Anonymous) 2012-07-17 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, no, I totally get your point. I don't even like him that much, it's just that my roommate, me, and some of our friends went to go see the movie again this afternoon, and my roommate's friend was going on and on about how that one line was like the worst line she'd ever heard in any movie ever. She was going on and on and on about it, and I was just sick of it and decided to fuck with her for the rest of the evening.

The phrase was just on my mind and it was the first "un-PC" thing I could think of.

This was pretty much my feeling. The OP can just CRY MOAR.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-17 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
Saying CRY MOAR is problematic.

Telling people they said something problematic is problematic.

I once saw a girl try to explain why it's not racist to call a black person a nigger, but it IS racist to call her a racist for calling him a nigger.

Calling a black guy a nigger: not racist.

Calling a racist a racist: racist.

I was channeling a similar argument I saw! Re: It's more oppressive to accuse someone of being a racist than it is to be racist towards people.

Yeah I have to stop thinking about that or it will make my brain hurt...

I've seen something similiar where someone said it was racist that white people weren't allowed to use racial slurs against black people when they could use them themselves. Not racist for white people to use racial slurs.

I had written up a whole response that I ended up being too exhausted to post because I didn't want to get further into it, but you managed to mostly distill what I was going to say, so.

I do also want to say, though, OP, that I am genuinely, actually sorry that you've lost your enjoyment of fandom. What I most like about the increased awareness and sensitivity to certain issues is that it's made wading into new fandoms a lot more comfortable for me.

That isn't the problem. The problem is the author cares.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
A+ someone that gets it.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
And I'm sorry that assholes like you ruin fandom for everyone else.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-17 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
it did. that shit needs to get the fuck out of my happy place.

it's to bad that genuine awareness and sensitivity, has been replaced with dogpiling, bullying, and being offended to the point of complete and utter lunacy.

Some of the best fics, and the best writing, is the stuff that makes us think, and feel, be it good or bad emotions.

If everything was PC, tokenism, and 'safe' then fic and writing would be the most bland activity in the world.

I say this as a very gay POC, who is sick of watching fandom fic writers, walk on eggshells.
