The other option being that we understand it perfectly well and we think that it's ridiculous*. Your ship not being canon is not racism, nor does it resemble racism in any way shape or form, and someone judging you on the internet for liking an offensive comic is not Islamophobia, nor does it resemble Islamophobia in any way shape or form. Not to mention that miezen is also wrong about the type of faulty logic happening. For her comparison to work, people would have to be saying, "Some Hetalia fans are horrible, therefore all Hetalia fans are horrible." What people were actually saying was "Hetalia fans like an icky comic, therefore Hetalia fans are icky." In other words, her use of an actual social issue doesn't do anything for her argument, but it sure does do a good job of making it look like Hetalia fans are victims of some injustice. Well, it would if anybody were actually buying it.


*It will be a beautiful day when the response to "This is nonsensical" isn't "You don't understand!" I understand. I understand that it's nonsensical.
