You know, I can defend myself, certainly, and often have had to, but I don't want to come to fandom constantly ready for battle just because I'm always one of few black female people around and therefore an easy target, so having enraged white fans who enjoy a good fight against bigotry more than I do because it's a temporary novelty to many of them, and who vastly outnumber fans like me, trying to police each other instead, saves me a lot effort. That's even considering any time I might spend dealing with those of them who come at me thinking they know my internalized prejudices better than I do.

And while I won't deny that the prevalence of SJWs has reached a most annoying concentration level in fandom, I don't think they've made anything except having thoughtless fun harder, because A) at least some of the people who are now afraid to voice their opinions thanks to dogpiling had awful shit to say in the first place and I won't cry crystal tears for them learning to think before they type, and B) the troll tactic of using the most inflammatory behavior of the time just to start drama while hiding behind anonymity predates the internet and will probably outlast the heat death of the universe.

So yeah, my feelings.
