You know, I had completely forgotten this until I read this post, but the Sock Puppeteer who tried to ruin Rat Patrol fandom was virulently anti-slash. It wasn't all that uncommon for people to dislike slash back then (late 90's/early oughty-oughts), and we also didn't talk about it in spaces that weren't age-restricted, so it didn't occur to me to mention it in the sock puppet account that I posted a while back. But it's an interesting parallel with the phenomenon described here. It wasn't just that she wasn't interested or didn't like it; IIRC, she and all her socks believed that it shouldn't exist at all.
