Emerson of Mugglenet And His Harmonian Slaves
From Fandom wank wiki
by ahiru
In a wank spawning some of the most popular icons on Fandom Wank, a Harmonian named Panther claims to understand how slaves felt, having been called "delusional" by Emerson.
In what seems to be classic irony, three and a half months later, the icons are misinterpreted by some members of Harry Potter fandom, particularly a certain Msscribe, who believe that the use of them indicates Fandom Wank is racist.

Quotes
- "Ya know, come to think of it, people like Emerson were probably the kinda people that started slavery. I mean, think about it, they thought the slaves were animals, just because they had different colored skin. Emerson thinks we're stupid and delusional for having different beliefs. Get the similarities here, people? Now, I'm not black, but boy, do I feel for the black people. If I lived in the 1800's, I wouldn't keep slaves, and if someone has a difference of opinion than me now, that's fine, believe what you want." -- Panther
- "...a different analogy would probably have been better. Maybe the religious persecution during Mary Tudor's reign, or the Salem Witch Hunt/Trials, the religous crusades, the wars in Bosnia etc." -- Anndee Granger
- "I used to be friendly with her and I was friendly enough with camillabloom that we used to have each other's mailing addresses. Then that fucking BOOK came out and they turned into monsters, I don't get it at all.
But that's just my opinion." -- Ataniell, on NarcissaM and Camilla
- "I saw that icon a long time ago. I shook my head, chalked it up as Yet Another Reason Why Overprivileged Emo Whitefolks Have Too Damn Much Time On Their Hands, and went on about my business." -- Ebony/AngieJ
