Big meltdown in the fandom discord server today about implicit bias, which is a ton of fun to watch as probably the only person in the thread who has experienced explicit bias in fandom spaces. These people are so fucking stupid.
Person who has made it very clear that not one of my opinions would be welcome in the server: "It's so important that everyone feels safe to voice their opinions here uwu"
It's so funny to watch them all explain in their messages that they are [insert 'oppressed' demographic here], lest someone else accuse them of trying to "speak over" someone else
This is why I avoid fandoms like they have some airborn version of AIDS
Careful, I'm pretty sure that would be considered a homophobic microagression and they're going to send you to server sensitivity training
Update: They're still at it
So far no one has managed to cite a single incident of bias that doesn't crumble immediately under the actual facts. The answer each time is some form of "the facts don't matter, what matters is that I made up a story about it and got upset, which is your fault."
At least one person has been booted from the server as of this morning.
Looks like the mods finally figured out this whole thing was just bullying with a progressive veneer. Took them almost two whole days. They also finally figured out that everyone who was upset by the supposed racist microagressions was whiter than me, which is just perfect lmao.
Checked in on this stupid fucking thread and now they're all apologizing for trying to be such good people that they didn't want to call out the shit stirrers for being bullies because ✨Social Justice✨
