Subject: What message board have you been reading?
In reply to: Christian Soldier (in more ways than one) 's message, "The evils of NoES, D&D, and other criminal based fandoms." on Thu, Apr 22 2004, 23:19:30

When did we discriminate against furries and otherkin? I have no idea. The only thing I can think of is that one time a lot of people on LJ got together and made fun of a furry guy who thought all women should die, that men could get pregnant, and that the anus is self-cleansing (unlike to vagina, according to his logic.)

>Sadly, most of these fandoms attract mentally disturbed people who have trouble distinguishing between fantasy and reality. If someone thinks a vile character like Jason or Freddy are cool or interesting because they kill, than why can’t we make the assumption that the unstable might engage in the same behavior the characters indulge in to seek pleasure?

Monkey see, monkey do theory.

I like Hannibal Lecter. I adore the movie 'Silence of the Lambs.' Does this mean I go around eating and killin people? No. I like it because it's an awesome movie that gets under my skin every time I watch it.

This theory is the same they used to blame the source of the Columbine High School shootings. Blame video games, bad parents, TV, movies, Marylin Manson, anything until we can find the cause. Blame something that sound smore plausible than just, "Hey, maybe the kids were fucking nutso."

Like another person said, you can't judge unstable people.

My mother never watched TV. She read books, but she dispised television. She grew in a nice family that was poor. No computer or video games, at this time of course. But my mother was also a schizophrenic who believed that the government was listening in on her phone conversations, that her husband was trying to poison her children, who hated her very own children because we were nothing but a terrible burden to her. Had we lived with her any longer, she may have killed us or twisted us mentally beyond what you could believe. And to this day, both my sister and I feel the repercussions of that woman.

Now, you can't blame the media or "fandoms." You what her problem was? She was crazy. She had hormonal imbalances and was delusional. promblems only medicine could correct.

>To me, this is a serious issue and very relevant to GAFF.

How exactly is this relevent to us? We're the people digging up the nasty porn fics to make fun of.

>Walk with the light and not with the darkness.

Or just bring a fucking flashlight.

With love,

Rubyfire.
