Okay, maybe I'm out of line here, but I thought staranise's original post had a good point. I really don't think indywind should have made a joke about it, but I feel the comparison is still a good one--that the state of poverty among a lot of the First Nations is very similar to women living in poverty in the rural south. And if one's not okay, the other's not okay either. (Which... yeah, indywind shouldn't have made a joke about it. I wouldn't have made a joke about how badly Attawapiskat residents have it.) Like staranise says, it's insulting to use other people's poverty for a meme about middle-class to wealthy white men who swing by for blanket-sex and then leave again? I mean, I don't know due South fandom--I have to imagine that was never the intention. It's really just a shorthand for "isolated place, cuddling for warmth, blanket-sex" but, well, I don't get the sense that the majority of dS fandom really paid attention to what actually happens among aboriginal populations in rural Canada.
