Yeah, there have been plenty of comments in Fandom Wank that insist that Yuletide is pagan (here (http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/1114158.html?thread=163537454#t163537454) for example), happily ignoring how the entire ficathon goes live.. on Christmas. I think I even saw a Finn claim that our Christmas is more pagan than Christian, never mind the fact that it's considered a Christian holiday..
I been comparing reactions to this debate to those of daily_deviant-debate in my mind and it's astounding how unsympathetic people have been during this, and I'm sorry about that. You, ladykat and kita didn't deserve to be attacked like that and it makes me angry that there hasn't been more outrage over what happened. Way too much crap has passed as acceptable during this, but not everybody thinks that's okay in any way.
People are free to hijack my journal any time, so I didn't mind at all. I hope things will finally start getting better for everybody who got hurt during this.
