I honestly find it creepy when people like this pop up with eloquent, well-written defenses of antis that seem sensible & likely to win over "normal" people who don& #39;t know the context.

Because these people DO know the context. They know what they& #39;re defending. https://twitter.com/rorschachisgay/status/1252608517124562945">https://twitter.com/rorschach...
They are framing years of vicious harassment, paranoid moral-panic campaigns over fiction that obscure actual instances of abuse, & the vigorous promotion of deeply reactionary and harmful ideas about psychology and sexuality as "constructive criticism," & they must realize it.
This isn& #39;t a discussion ABOUT good-faith criticism & the complexities of how to write & present your own truths compassionately. It& #39;s a discussion about mobbing & harassment over everything from problematic fiction that could have used more nuanced discussion to random fanfic.
And in the end it& #39;s a discussion about how broad censorship based on moral disgust is inevitably weaponized against everyone on the margins.

Stop claiming it& #39;s about "criticism." This was never about criticism.
People are getting into this QRT which is cool but I& #39;m kinda wishing I& #39;d used a screenshot instead. Don& #39;t harass this person, it& #39;s not worth it, I& #39;ll screenshot next time
