LJ is a beast. A big hulking beast driven by normally nice people who climb into the driver's seats of their opinions and steamroll them the hell over whoever and whatever they want.

"It's my LJ! It's my opinion!" Well, that's nice but a little courtesy wouldn't kill you, you moron. God forbid anyone should disagree with you and whatever you think, because you're right, of course. Your opinion is the only one, and if not the only one, certainly the only one that matters.

Grow up.

I'm sitting here so angry that I have a burning knot at the base of my throat and too many things to say that I probably shouldn't. Someone I like has been hurt, and I don't know how to help. I'm sitting here with my teeth clenched and bile in my throat and I'm completely pissed off at the narrow minds and busybody attitudes that permeate certain sections of the fandom.

And now I'm going to go because I don't like being pissed off.

(Not directed toward anyone on my friends list, thank God.)

I love (read: hate) when people hide behind the ol' "It's my LJ and it's my opinion, so there!" line instead of actually, like, listening to another side of an argument. You know, because it really hurts to just listen. :P
