Political RPF: SERIOUS BUSINESS.

How can you not laugh at someone reading an Obama/Rahm fic, seeing a reference to dreadlocks, and then screaming "THIS IS GOING IN THE ARTICLE"? Also, did you know Rahm Emanuel made a conscious choice to stay true to his Jewish heritage by marrying a Jew? TRUFAX, white people only voted for Barack Obama because they thought he was a white guy with a tan. Back awaaaay from the liberal guilt.

Let's summarize.

Writing fanfiction of actual people: OKAY.

Writing fanfiction of actual people where you portray them with a sexuality contrary to their publicly expressed one: OKAY.*

Writing fanfiction of actual people where they're the "wrong" race: NOT OKAY.

Writing fanfiction of actual people where you portray them with a sexuality contrary to their publicly expressed one with someone of a non-minorty race: NOT EXACTLY OKAY.

Writing fanfiction about politicians where an international crisis is just an excuse to get them together for hot, hot s3xx0rs: NOT OKAY.

Writing fanfiction where a black guy has dreadlocks: NOT OKAY.

Who left the door to her cell unlocked?

* Though there was a wank a while back about someone writing canonically gay characters as straight. Every argument on the side of the offended parties boiled down to "but gay people are a minority".

Because what's a bunch of political fanfic without some race-baiting thrown in?

Also, it's incredibly hard to resist the urge to go in there and comment "Barack Obama is BLACK?! Holy shit, why didn't he ever bring it up?! Next you're gonna tell me that John Kerry was in fucking Vietnam!"

That's just...stupid.

I can't really count the ways in which that is stupid.
