Getting ready to leave the house. Will be out the door, hopefully in 15.

Making a note to myself to come back here: http://alixtii.livejournal.com/254977.html?thread=1257985#t1257985

I may just create a journal soley for the purpose of identifying and labeling racist idiots in fandom.

Like some sort of scientific genus project.

British Politus Racist Idiotus - Peasant_


A) What I won't do is adapt my method of discourse to comply with the requirements of a model I don't believe in, especially if to do so would actively be harmful according to the model that I do believe in.

B) I'm not sure I entirely agree with that. The most successful changes seem to me to always arise when people work from within the system and use existing power structures, and those often happen best in the least confrontational and challenging fashion.


Cause if Race really is my fandom right now, then I want to plunge two fisted into it with the icon making, slogans and establishing right off the bat who's on the 'other side' of my fandom.

A page full of Hallelujah. Or rather covers of the song.


I'm particularly fond of Rufus Wrainright's and kd lang's.

Race race everywhere.

Although when Yahtzee cries 'wtf? a game for white supremacists??'. You know that game is effed up. Cause he defended The Resident Evil 5 Trailer. (Wait to the end, after the Heavenly Swords stuff - 3:31).

More and more I'm thinking of having a tag 'fandom: race'.

Another journal would just be too complicated. Yes? Maybe just a tag. With a nice link on the side to 'If you're still on livejournal and want to keep your pressure down copy this ban_set list'.

In which case peasant_ would still be in the running to be temporarily the top of the list.
