In SV news, idly reading a random journal, I think I found myself obliquely accused of being a Nazi sympathizer for my Lex posts. It could have been another post mentioned in their comments...but it sounded a lot like they were referencing our prattle about 33.1 and why it maybe is justified as Third Reich-esque propaganda. I'd be more disturbed by the comparison if we weren't talking about a totally fictional scenario. (If it was my post they were talking about, the person was polite enough not to flame me; they didn't even reference me by name. Such a well-mannered fandom!)
*sigh* That's probably my fault. I was discussing my own views on Lex's motives in "Progeny," and naturally I had the Lex-theory you and gnine came up with as the basis for much of it, since I now take that theory as gospel. When I was challenged, I would ordinarily have credited you and gnine, and pointed the person to your lj and stories, but the level of hostility in the challenge made me rethink that, since I didn't want to be responsible for someone blowing onto your lj and ranting wildly all over the place. (Possibly you'd merely find that amusing, but I didn't know, so I tried to err on the side of caution.) Thus I deliberately did not mention you or gnine, for which I apologize. *hangs head* I generally seem to get these things wrong, but it's never on purpose. *goes back to reading your post*
