I was about to talk about this later, but some thigns just boggles the mind

[la_vie_noire]

I have been avoiding talking about the SPN shit because some of the responses this got made me sick to my stomach and I'm still damn busy.

What kind of bubble are some people living into? People. Context. Nuances. Do you know how many people, real people of color, did the Haiti's Earthquake kill early this year? And yet, you still think that the worst thing that could happen is "bringing your agenda into fandom." Instead of, you know, respecting a tragedy and its victims.

Dear fucking God, it's hardly the first time something like this has happened to fandom and yet people affected (marginalized people) have to smile and let the fucking white assholes go on with their kinks on their tragedies without saying anything because otherwise "would be stirring things up." Dehumanization of actual people? Secondary matters to privileged people's kinks.

Fucking privileged assholes. The sociopathy going on in some of these comments is amazing.

For the record, if you say that "showing anger over this is worst than the actual offense" you are a offense to my humanity. No argument.

Off topic - your icon is awesome.

Thank you! I made it myself last year when I watched the movie. It's absolutely free for the take.

You put your finger on it - I've disengaged pretty early on due to offline issues - but yes, it is sociopathy in the pure sense of the word. (I think I butted my head in once and stumbled over the dogfucking = racism WE ALL HAVE KINKS EVERYONE comment and, uh, logged out and had a couple of drinks.)

In conclusion, music: !

"showing anger over this is worst than the actual offense"

Wait...what? No.

I think the anger can stop once the offenses stop coming. Since those don't seem to be slowing down...

*rage*

I really like ephemere's response to that.

The lengths to which people will defend undefendable "kinks" is my least favorite thing about fandom in general. I wouldn't call it sociopathy per se--just plain selfishness and short-sightedness, combined with a strong dose of stupidity.

[surpassingly]

I have had my first comment on how it's just that these people are seeing issues we're missing! And I'm like... WAT. Being meeeeeaaaaaan = worse than dehumanization and dismissal?

I really want to go out for drinks. AT 10 AM.

Well said.
