One hundred trillion billion percent with you. I'm not going to hide and I'm not going to stop doing what I do in fandom... I agree with you so very much, I might be tearing a bit! *hugs*

"And if this is your fandom army, why does it go?"

"We didn't come here to fight for them. The Six Apart English are too many!"

"Daughters Sons of Fandom Scotland! I am Mijan William Wallace."

"Mijan William Wallace is seven feet tall!"

"Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if SHE HE were here, she'd he'd consume Six Apart the English with fireballs from her his eyes, and bolts of lightning from her his arse."

[Fandom Scottish army laughs]

"I AM Mijan William Wallace! And I see a whole army of my slasher girls country men, here, in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?"

"Against that? No, we will run to GJ-IJ-JF, and we will live ( ... )

Your thoughts on fandom at large are so much like my own. ♥ I tend to think of us as the biggest, most awesome dysfunctional family ever. We can bicker and snark amongst ourselves like no other, but when someone threatens us from the outside, we can come together so fast it'll make your head spin.

I am in favor of moving. But when I talk about moving, I'm talking about taking our fannish activity off LJ. I don't expect everyone to delete their journals outright and potentially leave people behind ( ... )

I agree with ou. I think that lj/six apart actly rashly and unwisely but without malice. I think their explanations can safely be filed under asshat. But as i have just read, it seems as though they are taking steps in the right direction to correct some of the mistakes. And the post is actually articulate!

I want to stay on lj. I plan on staying at lj unless a large part of fandom moves. i just don't want a move that will make us lose our sense of community and family. I think we are a family, as you said a dysfunctioanl one, but a family none the less. So I will be here until I have to join you at the curb!
