Wait, they had to delete a Finn/Poe fic because it wasn't happy fluff?! Because it featured a kink trope that wasn't vanilla enough?! That's messed up.
I'm pretty sure the people screaming the loudest about racism and how not shipping fluffy Stormpilot makes you a terrible person are the same people who shrieked about how it wasn't racist to desexualise Sam Wilson and claim he's 'just too good for anyone' in their headcanon posts about Stucky. Now they're finally shipping something other than two white dudes, they're going overboard to prove they totally weren't being racist before, honest you guys!!1! And their overcompensation is so fucking loud it's becoming the fandom baseline for dealing with Stormpilot, which sucks. They don't actually care about race in fandom, it's just about proving their own fandom credentials, and ultimately they're damaging any discussion that actually does focus on race issues.
