Shipper hate. It's like racism, in a way!

A comment I just saw in fandom_secrets (bolding is mine):

I have to admit, I'm glad that it seems the super-teeny-boppers are leaving (because honestly, that's the only thing I consider an absolute sign of a fairweather fan--leaving when the hawtness is gone), if only because maybe, in a few years, people who actually liked the Doctor/Rose ship will no longer be so vilified.

...

Hey, America elected a black President! I can dream that one day Classic!Who fans will no longer hate more for loving my ship unapologetically!

WHAT.

You did NOT just go there.


WTF. WTF.



Also, what the HELL, Ripway?! You bastards, I have not been online ALL GODDAMN DAY, I have NOT exceeded my fucking bandwidth! I'm looking straight at my damn account summary: I've used 19% of my available bandwidth, and I'm only using a third of my storage space, so STOP doing this to me. JESUS.

Wtfff. And what's this about all Ten/Rose haters being Classic Who fans? I've met enough people who love the Ten/Rose ship and started watching the show back in the eighties or even seventies. On the other hand, I've also met enough New Who fans who dislike Ten/Rose.

Her argument: not only completely out of line and idiotic, but also spouting assumptive generalizations. You're the reason people are wary of Ten/Rose shippers, hun.
