But I really have to say that reading essays where people talk about demands for apologies from ficwriters as though they were a G-d given constitutional right is going to be the first thing I demand everyone to warn me for when they institute the "you have the right to demand warnings for all your personal triggers" rule.
(No, you shouldn't apologise. I just hate it, particularly the way "fic in which X happens" turns into "fic that supports X" in some people's minds. When she said she puts writers who don't respond to this stuff on a list of people she doesn't pay attention to, I wondered if she knew how long some of our lists of people not to pay attention to are.)
