Unfunny wanky stereotypes

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

hogan's heroes, frex

there were some cool people around on LJ

and then there were the middle-aged housewife fans who banned slash on the community because it wasn't family-friendly enough for their light comedy show about POWs killing nazis (all the fanfic on the comm was already DARKER! AND! EDGIER! than the show) and deleted+banned anyone who was like "hey wait"

oh god I had forgotten that clusterfuck

I was actually fandom friends with some of the people involved until that whole thing, but I'd been gradually reexamining my upbringing & realizing how bigoted and shitty it was and

idk dumb as it sounds watching people get treated like shit for writing slash about Hogan's Heroes was kind of what made me look at my life, look at my choices, and I cut ties and changed my entire outlook on life after that

so I guess some good came of it maybe

no that is definitely some good :) i don't think it matters where your inspiration to change for the better comes from!

if me being banned for getting mad about slash helps you become a better person, then let me be banned a thousand times, and let my butt get super-flustered about slash forever, because it'll be worth it to help someone grow
