Lmao, no, they didn't? Vagueblogging isn't twitter specific. People even vague post here, and it's generally not met well. If anything, it hints at tumblr. But whatever.

It's not entitlement or demanding to say you dislike how someone conducts themselves (but uh if that's how we're defining it...). There's no expectation of change. I definitely have no interest in engaging with them, because clearly how we use socialize is very at odds.

I misremembered because of the direction the conversation took, but being tumblr and not twitter doesn't actually change things. We certainly weren't talking about the fic discussion thread.

No, no one said dislike = entitlement. No one disagreed with people who said they disliked seeing vagueblogging. But saying "having a single coherent thought about an established subject isn't really all that much to ask for" is an expectation that is entitled when people aren't writing for you. There is no expectation that every single tweet or tumblr text post is supposed to have coherent thoughts about established subjects. Calling people names and making assumptions about their intelligence because they want to be able to say "ugh I didn't like this" on their blogs or twitters without explaining themselves to you, a random stranger, is both entitled and over the top.

da

Also, disliking the practice of vagueblogging because of its pettiness, smallmindness, propensity to generate wank, whatever, and judging someone who engages in it excessively =/= being upset that someone expressed an opinion, even a negative one, on their personal social media without "context" or "support" or ~contributing to a conversation that they aren't trying to have or providing constructive criticism or analysis that no one is paying them to provide. "No one expects professional reviews, but..." blahblahblah is a reasonable thing to say if you're talking about, like, Amazon reviews or AO3 comments, but saying that about someone's personal social media is assuming that that social media exists for your edification, which it doesn't.
