I'm not sure if it's call it being like Shatner's address. It sounds like a fan who is upset with the people who end up dragging down the various fandoms they participate in; even if she also works professionally in it, it seems to be more from the view of a fan.
Unfortunately, it's a kind of "damned if you do, damned if you don't". As long as fandoms remain on the fringe, they will attract fringe people, including the loli's, the shota's and the more extreme furries. But if it becomes popular, then we end up with wannabe's who are only in it for because they can be different like all their friends.
