>>95642531I don't have any social media accounts. However, it's those people that post fucked up things all over social media and other places so that it also comes up in standard google searches.
It has nothing to do with me going and looking for it. These people exist in their own corners, fester, then spread their shit everywhere to the point that whatever media starts getting associated with shit. All I can really do is just what I originally said I do - just keep to myself.
I mean, hell. I like a few things that have generals on /co/, but fuck if you'll ever find me in one, let alone starting one. Those people come here to run their dumpster fire of a circlejerk and lower the overall opinion of things to the general populous. Remember back when Homestuck General got banned because it was responsible for the vast majority of reports to mods? And you know how every general quickly runs out of canon shit to discuss, so they dive headlong into speculation and weird fanart based off of it, then repost it every thread? Or how they start 10-30 threads every time a new episode of their show comes out instead of just sticking to their own general? Best of all is when the show/comic/whatever starts to take a turn for the terrible, but they refuse to acknowledge that anything could be wrong, and attack anyone who dares think otherwise.
There's a reason some end up on /trash/. I really wish they all would.
Yes, there are ways to avoid them even then, like filtering, which I do. I had "homestuck" filtered forever and never had an issue, until the mods banned their general, so they started trying to make covert threads, and it started popping up in the catalog again.
I don't go to twitter, tumblr, facebook, deviantart, yahoo groups, web rings, bulletin boards, mailing lists, smoke circle clubs, or any other means by which fans would congregate aside from /co/. They just end up going where I go and acting like asshats.
