It's SUCH a slight of hand and from someone with a history of fandom bullying. As far as I can tell, by saying writing a "Character X did no wrong!" post is the same as harassing someone for writing that post, it's more or less setting up justifiably targets for bullying all over again. "Well they're just as bad as us!" goes the cry.
No. They aren't. Writing a long post about how no puppies were kicked does not equate to sending anon hate calling someone a paedo, then getting all their friends to black list them, then doxxing them to their work. Which are all popular "fandom police" tactics. One's sloppy logic. The other is harassment.
