Open note to K_Z mods.

Thank you, [livejournal.com profile] katara_zuko, for deleting that link to the fandom hate meme. The last thing the ATLA fandom in general needs is more hate, especially recently.




(Also have never been so glad that [livejournal.com profile] zutarotica is still a locked community.)

Meh, I watch the community [livejournal.com profile] simsecret and while there are hate secrets, there is also the love as well. I am grateful, however, that the mods there are no longer posting secrets with hate speech in them (one of the recent weekly posts there had used a derogatory term for transgendered people and it was clear the asshole who posted it was a troll doing it to get people riled up as it was).

It does get petty, especially as some people were at one point going after this one Sim story writer because she was putting slash as a "warning" for her stories (doing it obviously, because there are people who aren't into it) and the people were making a big deal of it and accusing her of "catering to homophobes", which was so not her intent and I was one of her defenders.

Her Simming journal is now on my f-list, and I got a few more friends as well in the whole deal.
