JayF--l?

It's always mordantly funny to eavesdrop on people justifying their own behaviour--hell, that'd be most of the Internet, wouldn't it? So here's some more, to the tune of "Yeah sure, he's got colon cancer and he's on heavy chemotherapy...but screw him, he's just a straight white male who writes SFF, so my urge to school him definitely takes precedence. Non-defaulters unite against cancer privilege!" http://ithiliana.livejournal.com/1318751.html

Um--"empathy"? Wozzat? Oh, that thing which doesn't apply to non-chromatics anymore...got it, thanks.

Stay classy/classic, ladies!

P.S.: This is tiny, but I also love how she constantly refers to him by his LJ handle (jaylake), instead of popping it out into his actual fucking NAME. Which, you know, it is. Because adding two capitals and a space would be bending to the hegemonic tyranny, or some such shit.

The Other Thing I'm Sort of Vaguely Interested By

...is the way that F--lfolk have recently all become very up-in-your face about the supposed moral nastiness of wanting to freeze and/or delete threads which turn into massive hatefests, mainly because to do so is discriminating against them for taking the time and energy to berate you and/or your guests on what was originally intended to be your space. 'Cause that's just not playing fair! And better yet, it'll make it very difficult for them to quote said F--l in sufficient detail, when they want to turn it into various fandom/fanculture-related academic papers.

Yes, that's right: People are out there right now potentially building academic careers on other people's misery. But, ya know, the people who get F--l inflicted on them are in the main Just White Folk, so they deserve it. Paaaartay!

But don't worry: Anything you try to get rid of can easily be Waybacked and screen-capped to a fare-thee-well, so you won't ever get away with your nefarious plans to spoil their fun. And don't you dare try to protect yourself in any other way, either. Don't you know this is God's justice personified, a thousand years of karma delivered via the Internet? Oh, you didn't know that?

Stupid fucking white people.
