I've been reading through your post type: rant tag and then following all of your links back to sources and reading those. I knew a lot of this stuff was happening I guess on tumblr but I don't really read text posts over there or interact with people, so I didn't realize how widespread some of this behavior is. I stepped away from 99% of fandom meta and discussion when I faded from LJ, so I really thought some of this stuff was outlier behavior. I should've known better.

Anyway, your tag has been very educational.
