There are things I get outraged about too, like injustice, management being given even more power over workers in this country, how come greedy and corrupt Americans ruined the planet's economy, but what's the point? I can't change any of that. I avoid news because of the horrible things I'd hear or read otherwise, and I even avoid people after something particularly bad because of their need to discuss it. Damn, once a complete stranger came up to me in a mall toilet to say how awful the bush fires were. It was almost with a weird sort of pleasure, and I just don't get that at all. I just said "Yes," and walked away. I do give money to charities trying to help so I suppose I do make a difference in a tiny way.

I agree: compared to things like that, fans insulting each other or writing stories of various fail really just don't matter that much. Not when I encounter huge amounts of sexism fail on ordinary TV series like NCIS and Burn Notice.
