I was following that saga yesterday, and holy shit I felt bad for the author -- largely because I thought they actually handled the topic in a really graceful and nuanced way? There was one uncomfortable line but the rest of the fic was good, IMO -- and more importantly it wasn't boring. I was so disappointed to see people dogpiling that author because all it's going to do is make people scared to write Poe/Finn fic that isn't "everything is happy 100% of the time", which we already have a million fics of and gets really repetitive and boring.
