Fandom is just determined to annoy me this week.

It is entirely possible to respect a person's right to their opinion and not respect a particular opinion. It's also possible to disagree with another person's opinion and still respect the person.

It is nearly impossible to respect a person whose opinion includes the view that anyone who disagrees with their opinion deserves no respect, and furthermore, because their views differ, are morally bankrupt, ethically void, and possibly the root of all evil.

And seriously? People who write (or read) incest are no more likely to be advocating for it in real life than people who write (or read) h/c kidfic are advocating for child abuse.

and a return to the golden and glorious era of piracy on the high seas.

You're in luck on that pirate thing....

I like Plot-Device Pirates, myself, like the ones in Hamlet. Everyone forgets that there are pirates in Hamlet. PIRATES!

Oh, the romance! Oh the drama!

Because really liking POTC must mean I'm rooting for the modern day pirates.

OR that Ray Bradbury was actually advocating book burning when he wrote Farenheit 451.

You know since FICTION = RL OPINION.
