ayrt

Yeah, you're probably right.

I think probably the issue is confusion between that sense of 'warning' and trigger warnings, really - I think that's definitely what happened for me. People see warnings nowadays, they're accustomed to thinking of it in those terms - they're accustomed to warning meaning "I want to talk about this thing but I know that it's deeply traumatic for some people." So those two senses of the word get conflated and you get a big ol' thing going on.

Warnings are for stuff that is generally offensive, so warning for homo and trans people would be acceptable in fic written during the 1950s, but not any more. Conversely warning for racism would be a dumb thing to do in a 1930s written fic, because everyone went out and kicked a nigger on the way home from work (Warning preceding sentence contained racism), but really needs warned for now (except in Florida, where stalking and shooting a nigger is still legally endorsed). It is a moving target.

Trigger warnings are just stupid in general though and have diluted the value of tags and real warnings.

I think you may be a troll.

What, opinions you do not like are just "troll" now? When did you get to be the arbiter of opinions?

It's your behavior/wording, not your opinion.

Oh right, now you are the police of... You know, I don't exactly know what type of policing you are doing, but let me congratulate you on a good job of gentle trolling yourself. I bet you are a wiz at flyfishing.

When you first came here, announcing that you wanted to create a new troll persona. Don't expect people to take you seriously after that.

not "may be", definitely is

and there's not really any point in you trying to prove it to them, they know it, we all know it.

I was going to remind you that the usage of warning in different fandom spaces makes all this a semantic issue, but after those lasts words? I have to agree with the other anon.

Trigger warnings don't work. If a person is so sensitive that the words in the fic trigger them, then the words in the warning also do. They also make it harder for the triggeree to make a proper recovery if they keep getting sheltered.
