section7mfu | Ignorance Is Not Bliss...

There's a lot of it running rampant in these parts. Ignorance calls people names in an effort to provoke a reaction, and it responds when the name calling cuts too deep. Ignorance rushes into the fray and indulges itself by stirring up more strife until the atmosphere is thick with misunderstanding and suspicion.
There is no excuse for the kind of behavior that has come into question in the past few days. Section VII will never tolerate abusive language or pointedly incendiary comments that target a group or belief system. We're not here to make judgements about what people do in their private lives, we're here to write fiction for a television series we love and embrace. So far we've remained free of the kind of trouble that was served up on that other comm, perhaps because we just stick to writing.
Let's continue on in that spirit of shared interest and enjoyment of the men whose lives embody tolerance and inclusiveness. I want everyone to feel safe, and if anyone ever feels bullied or targeted, please let me know.
I'll reiterate once more what I have said previously: We are a Gen site because we like Gen, not because we're anti something else. Whether we love television or comics, let's remain true to the joy that our stories produce, and leave the negative stuff outside.
Thanks,
Glenna
