Trigger warning: issues of transphobia and racism are discussed and I get pretty heated in my discussion. Please turn away if you want :)
Alright I’m fucking pissed. As many of you know, in March a couple of blogs called out the POTO fandom for being racist and transphobic while grasping at straws to do so. I’m not saying that don’t have a couple of transphobes and racists here, not saying that at all. But the fact that you were going mainly off of guilt by association or straight up making lies or assumptions off of shit you heard from others just made it into a flying dumpster fuck of a witch hunt. Wow. And the few people who were actually perpetrating their bigotry got off relatively scot free. All you really did was alienate a bunch of innocent fandom goers from a relatively small fandom. Great job!!!!
Hell you went after Madame Faust for a FanFiction that was just edgy at best. Pretty sure they just deleted/deactivated their accounts. The slave trade was a disgusting instance of imperialism but um they weren’t glorifying it? Raoul’s family just happened to take part in it in the FanFiction (best to my knowledge). Never read it personally but that’s what I got from the summary. If I’m wrong I apologize. Even so I didn’t see any so called “glorification.” It’s almost like it happened in history (it did). Huh? Are we trying to censor history now? All you did was act like a bunch of primary school children and attack them for a piece of edgy FANFICTION. Maybe we could of at least gone about it through more productive ways, yeah? Like informing them why it crossed a boundary in a civil and calm manner instead of attacking them and going right for the throat. Idk just a thought. Or the trans fic that Mertans made (sorry if I spelt it wrong). Like what?? Sure they should of included trigger warnings but like they just highlighted the abuse that trans people face and incorporated it into a FanFiction. I didn’t know that the rule was we actually had to fit all the criteria of our characters to post things. Again, edgy but like there’s nothing wrong with that. Or going after people who simply book marked the pieces???????? That was so fucked up. Seriously, if you want to use that anger, how about we go after the actual racists and homophobes on Twitter such as Mr. Pumpkin Head instead.
Also attacking people for having simple opinions on the matter simply was hella fucking weird. It just screamed to me that you wanted to be woke and bring attention to yourself. Or silencing people by calling them racist or transphobic when they clearly weren’t. Or attacking people on the sole basis of their white heritage (even perceived some of the time). What…? Y’all literally just barged into this fandom one day, made a bunch of accusations, then disappeared. And not even that great of ones. Reminded me of the Hamilton FanFiction drama. Sheesh. Also I’m non-binary and gay if that matters. Not a POC (mostly white) so I tried to kept things at the base of my knowledge. Maybe I over stepped but damn I have been bottling this in for too long. Hate on this if you want. Call me names. Make more false accusations. I don’t really care. I’m not returning to this account likely anyways after I’ve said what I needed to. Have fun.
