Someone just replied to my Hemsworth-critical post saying “you know Loki’s gonna die right?” I think they were trying to hurt my feelings because my icon makes it obvious that I’m a Loki fan foremost (or maybe they just assumed I must be because I “hate Thor,” except I don’t, just the “new and [definitely not] improved Thor”), but it’s just so beside the point that it’s baffling. It’s like responding to any insult or criticism with “oh yeah, your mom’s fat.”
Tumblr: where you make a post expressing an unpopular opinion about a movie and then people start attacking you personally because they’re incapable of arguing the case on the merits.
Btw, I’m not going to stop arguing for my unpopular views; people who don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground don’t deserve to be successfully intimidating. I’m just going to start using the block button more liberally… but only on people who resort to personal attacks. I’m fine with reasoned disagreement.
