My rantiness, let me show you it.

ETA: For those of you just clicking in, here's the skinny: this is a rant, so it's not exactly the most coherent thing I've ever written in my life. Yes, it's aggressive and offensive, and perhaps its poor phrasing has clouded some of the things I was trying to get off my chest, so here's the TL;DR version:

1. Warnings are necessary for community posts.
   
2. Definitely warn for rape/consent issues, explicit violence, and child abuse.
   
3. You don't have to warn for other things, but it's not a bad idea.
   
4. You don't have to warn in your personal journal, but I do because I know some of my friends are sensitive to different things.

I think that's an accurate summary of what I was trying to say, at least. I'm sorry if you came across this earlier and were offended by my tone, or my words, or anything that I may have implied. Of course, if you'd rather read the whole motherfucking thing, I left it up here unedited as a testament to my own idiocy. Enjoy it with a grain of salt.

( Rant within. )

Not a poll or anything, but anyone who wants to, please feel free to discuss in the comments. Disagree with me if you want, I won't be hurt or anything. And I wasn't trying to hurt anyone else with this rant; this whole issue has just rubbed me all kinds of the wrong way.
