One of the things I'm kind of appalled about (aside from the obvious, anyway) is the almost automatic assumption that discussion = arguing = wank = bad, therefore whoever is dissenting is wanky and therefore wrong! Because if you're not immediately holding hands and agreeing with this atrocity of a petition you're stirring things up and causing trouble for the rest of the Nice People In The Fandom. Or something. I don't even know, I tend to stay the hell away from fandoms.
