Migrants to IJ, 2007

I'm cutting LJers some slack, because I think many folks are in denial. The idea of moving to a new platform terrifies them; they fear losing their community.

These are the folks calling for us to police ourselves [because if we just stopped writing that naughty porn, none of this would have happened!] and urging us to "support" LJ instead of knocking it.

Eventually, I hope, they will realize that we are fandom, and Six Apart is merely a business. At the moment, they aren't seeing that.

As I've said elsewhere [boringly, with much repetition :D], fandom has moved many, many times, and it can move again.

InsaneJournal ho!
