It reminds me of the way a lot of people's internet environmentalism is basically shaming disabled people for needing to use disposable plastics. They've been told repeatedly that straws are a minor part of the ocean plastics problem, but I suspect part of the reason they don't listen is that shaming someone online about the stuff they do is always easier than dealing with the huge structural problems that are keeping us all awake at night re: the environment. It's just more satisfying to tell someone off and get a quick hit of "I've done my bit!" than engage in the much more uncertain, frightening work of trying to persuade governments, which often feel remote, to shift huge corporations, which feel even more remote. The sheer wall of anti-women, anti-LGBTQ sentiment in the world at large is exhausting to even contemplate - but that one person in fandom doing a thing one disapproves of... they're reachable.
