@MajorEnglishEsq @xe_they What in the history of AO3 leads you to think that a blanket keyword ban would be the first line solution to a racism problem? Who has proposed such a solution without being inundated with pushback re: all of the problems and system gaming it induces?

Also, please do not take it personally if over the next few months i occasionally upload to AO3. This could be for a variety of reasons. It could be an old fic a beta was sitting on. It could be old bits and pieces edited together. Just know I never meant to let anyone down.

Alright, time for @SPN_Masquerade claims. I don't think everything I wrote this round will make it onto my ao3 (I had a rough couple of weeks leading up and during the masquerade and I went deep down the rabbit hole this time), but everything I do claim will be in this thread.

“racism happens in real life so we should fix that before we do anything on ao3” is, once again, showing the hand that fandom had once tried to conceal: that the “our” in archive of our own is not, in fact, all-inclusive. https://t.co/8sCfvpzcnu

“racism is the issue of the day” as if we haven’t been fighting for YEARS. to posit the ongoing fights for ao3 to do LITERALLY ANYTHING to stop racist violence as a trendy gotcha to be exploited by bad actors is to dismiss the WORK & AGENCY of BIPOC fans. https://t.co/mHcncr3ang

you know what really angers me about this kind of take is how little imagination there is in a community that is about creativity & transformation like, why is it that when you hear “AO3 needs to fix its racism problem”, your thoughts go to so-called censorship? really, why?

@nadirmonkey I have, to my ongoing regret, seen things on AO3 (under original work, more fool me for accidentally clicking a tag) where even the summaries were actually traumatic to read and I think the person who wrote it should be investigated by police. But AO3 is not the problem there.
