John Scalzi addresses a problem with someone who waves around his name in a socially unacceptable fashion.
As has been detailed recently, there’s a Racist Sexist Homophobic Dipshit out there on the InterWeebs who likes to use my name to whip up his gibbering followers, who then often come over here to troll the comments. Whether I ignore him or not doesn’t matter, so fine. I might as well get something productive out of it.
Here’s what I’m going to do: From now until the end of 2013 (and backdating to January 1st) when the Racist Sexist Homophobic Dipshit in question posts an entry on his site in which he uses my name (or one of his adorable nicknames for me), I’m going to put $5 into a pot. At the end of the year, I’m going to tally it up. All the money, up to $1,000, will be donated equally to the following organizations:
* RAINN
* Emily’s List
* Human Rights Campaign
* NAACP
Lovely. And people have already pledged another $26K to the cause. Almost makes me want to encourage the RSHD to keep up the unintended good work.
