Wow. You came into my post, disagreed, assumed things about me that aren't true (that I'm heterosexual) and instead of asking for clarification or wanting to start an actual discussion of the complicated issues involved, you give a snide slam about how I'm not politically pure enough (i.e. I don't think the same things you do), supporting it with a misreading of a related post. And you do it ANONYMOUSLY. If you just want to be holier-than-thou and attack anyone who disagrees with you, go back to tumblr. If you want an actual discussion of complicated issues (such as the intersection of race, sexuality, gender, and how fandom relates to them), learn to discuss things like a rational adult.

You know, over-simplifying a complicated issue, misreading someone's argument in a way deliberately designed to be as nasty as possible, and then attacking them for being immoral is a tactic regularly used by Fox News and its associates. It's a shitty tactic whether it's being used by people on the right or on the left.
