This post is in response to a harmful Star Wars fan website called StarDestroyer.Net that is devoted to smear campaigning against Star Trek. Michael Wong is the creator of StarDestroyer.Net and his goal is to make Star Trek look very bad to the general public. He accuses Star Trek of promoting racism, communism, and oppression and his website is totally responsible for the coining of the word "Trektard" as in an "English to Trektard Dictionary". ImperialWiki is the Wiki for StarDestroyer.Net.
So let's image a hypothetical Star Wars fan site called SandoAquaMonster.Net (a Star Wars marine mammal) which is a smear campaign against James Cameron's Avatar. A fictional character named Wayne Tussy Aqualiak sets up this site named after his very favorite animal and his goal is to give Avatar a very bad reputation in the eyes of the general public. Aqualiak hates Avatar with a purple passion because that film overtook Star Wars in the box office. The guy is homosexual and he accuses Avatar of promoting homophobia and communism. I am not at all homophobic, my Sirius Breast Man character is gay. Then he has a SandoAquaWiki for his SAM.net and coined the word "Avatard" as an anti-Avatar epithet. This hypothetical site is more about destroying all respect for Avatar than it is about saying how a Sando Aqua Monster lives. I hope that by reading this imaginary scenario, you will see what such a pernicious website like StarDestroyer.Net is all about, smear campaigning and alienation.
