It's finally happened: they've lost their minds!

Senator McCarthy lives! He does his witch-hunt nowadays under the name of fandom_scruples. Really, that is an actual black list of people who write NC-17 rated fan fiction (mostly in the Harry Potter fandom) and don't adequately hide their texts from the curious public - at least according to the exacting standards of said rabid vigilante. Some people don't have enough problems of their own if they've got time to dream up such an utter idiocy and then go and research it so thoroughly and dedicatedly. And that self-styled Moral Majority of one even calls for boycotting some perfectly mainstream convention, because some blacklisted writers are helping with the organisation. Madness. Sheer madness. What kind of cow-headed dimwit from Texas Oberammergau could think of such an inane hate campaign??

In other news: those who tend to cry "Copyright violation!" first and loudest never hesitate to violate the copyright of some unknown and unimportant Frenchman, as my friend Stephan the japanologist found out and posted to his LJ. Go read that; it's also a garish monument of hypocrisy on Fox's part.

The links to the Futurama page on japanologist's post don't work (or rather, redirect you to a picture of some rather off-putting hairy fellows snuggling); you'll have to go straight to to http://www.gotfuturama.com and find the start theme mp3 by hand if you want to cross-check - I did, and I am convinced. It really is the very same musical idea...

*blinks* Good lord! Censorship of reading material bugs me, it really does, and that list.... *shakes head* It's pretty simple really, if you don't like it, don't read it and don't go looking for it so you can then complain about it once you've found it, read it, and been offended by it. *grumbles* People!

And that tight-minded bigot has put in a special portion of tender loving care to research many, many LJ users for the list, too. They don't like it, but they spend an awful lot of time with it to acquire a thorough picture of what they abhor - what is wrong with this picture??
Really, some people do have strange hobbies. I feel like posting something really strong and smutty right away to tread on their toes (even the cow-heads in Texas Oberammergau don't have hooves any more, do they?

Sorry, test
