I... what? I pretty clearly care about the ways fiction impacts reality? I just also disagree with real people being harassed because someone else disagrees with their taste in fiction?

if you're going to act like 'antis have harassed people' is a controversial statement with no evidence to support it, then I'm gonna go ahead and assume you're engaging in bad faith

If you're going to use the term "antis" without defining it and without recognizing that it has been assigned to those who do not harass by ppl who have no argument but for the ad hominem, I'm going to assume the same.

what's your claim, here: that people with the same beliefs as antis minus the decision to actively harass others ought to be exempt from having their logic critiqued unless "not all antis" is specifically stipulated?

my claim is simply that when you use the term, knowing that it has been applied to people who don't harass, who have legitimate critiques of fandom, that you're throwing them into the same grinder. and you know it. and apparently you don't care.

you can "critique their logic" all day. but critique *their* logic. not the logic of some rando who you decided speaks for them

what rando, pray? I'm talking about self-described antis. you're the one who's come in, ignored the entire content of what I've written, and decided to say 'but actually some people get called antis who aren't,' as though that changes my point about fantasy vs reality.

it does change your point. bc if your point was limited to "self proclamed antis" no one would care bc lbr there aren't many of those. but your aim is broader than that. isn't it?

if it's not - please do specify that the only people you're talking about are those that are self-proclaimed antis and if anyone wants to apply this to others they're wrong and you denounce any such extrapolation.

there are people who say "I'm not an anti" but whose beliefs and actions align exactly with everything antis do and say, just as there are TERFs who claim not to be TERFs. a lack of self-identification with a term doesn't mean the term is inapplicable 100% of the time
