Oh sweetheart, your response caused me to burst into tears. You have allies beyond measure. Even those afraid to speak aloud speak with their votes. There has never been any measure of any law that has been offered to any government within any area I live in that I did not strongly vote against nor actively campaign against. While I might not have felt safe living out loud and proud, I never let my regard for social acceptance affect my vote - and I am in the crazy majority. I promise you that.
You have every right to expect better of fandom. EVERY right.
I am grateful you posted what you did. I feel very blessed to call myself your fan/friend.
A person can be smart. *People* are stupid. Blessed be - the "persons" are now standing up and speaking for the people. We are growing and we are learning.
*squishes you fiercely* I will always support you.
