You’re basically an anti-anti at this point.

.... is this supposed to be an insult?

I don't want any kinds of moral boundaries on fanfic because they always depend on the person who sets them. But hey, it's cool if you do and if you think only "confirmed non-creeps" are allowed to make nominations now. That's not worrying at all.

You’re insane.

Just make your own Atrocities Exchange if you're so worried about this kind of shit not being allowed in Yuletide. No one will stop you.

Look man, I kind of understand where you're coming from with the slippery slope thing, but the slope can slip the other way too. You can still defend people's ability to write controversial stuff in YT, without defending literal Nazi sympathizers who want sympathetic fic about actual historical WWII Nazis.

Out of all the "controversial" stuff in fandom, this is such a distant outlier. It's so distant you can't even *see* underage sex and incest ships from where ars_belli is standing. We're not losing anything by drawing a line in the sand that is so far away from anything worth defending.

DA

The fact that they admit to wanking about the Horror exchange says it all. I also think that banning RPF for that was dumb but if that wad the perk the mod wanted in exchange for their running it then more power to ‘em. But I didn’t sign up for the exchange. I don’t think its a canary in the exchange coal mine any more than this person making a Yay, Nazis! Fest would have me worried other exchanges would let Nazi RPF in. Exchanges are run by people for free, and people have opinions, just like any politician might.

This person has Mod Opinions that are strong enough to warrant them Being An Actual Mod because their need to wank anywhere they hear a dog whistle means they want other people to cow to them, but they’re too lazy to actually do that and so they bitch at what other people with Mod Opinions do.
