Re: Fandom Venting

I thought it was pretty clear??? It doesn't say racism explicitly, but... but someone says they're upset about hockey's takes on Kaepernick, there's no need to generalize that? Maybe you are sheltered, maybe it's that fandom is usually more preoccupied with general "social justice" in a "your fave is problematic!" way that makes it seem natural to want to lump these issues together in conversation and to counter one way in which someone's ""bad"" with another way in which they're ""good."" Idk.

(But also, in retrospect, maybe it was clearer to me because I think I know what tweets OP was specifically referring to re: women players, which, if you didn't know about, also makes it more vague.)
