I....I have absolutely no words. Like I can't even process this shit. I am fucking so god damn baffled. Like is this just antis being hypocrites? Something I've noticed is that in fictional settings, a character being completely iredeemable and ignoring someone's consent is completely okay...unless sex is involved. The second a character is a pedophile or rapist, then anyone who likes said character is completely disgusting and fucked up and gross. But a character is a stalker? Well that's fine because "90% of stalkers are uwu shy baby boys that need protection".

antis: media depicting illegal and/or reprehensible things shouldn’t be created, consumed, or readily available to the public. people who interact positively with these kinds of media either already want to/already do these things in reality, or the media itself will make them want to.

also antis (but it’s not the same, don’t get it twisted, this is the good kind of illegal and reprehensible):

I found an interesting thread on twitter about how fandom puts the well- being of fictional characters above that of actual abuse victims and I wanted to share it cause some of y'all really need to read

I think we should bring this shit back for a lot of the minors on the internet nowadays tbh. Not even being condescending either, I legitimately feel that internet safety hasn’t been being taught like it’s supposed to be. I’ve seen way too many bad things happen to young people because they simply weren’t aware of basic internet safety protocols. I know a lot of us may think it’s just common sense, but we were still taught these things.

Think about back when you were 13. We all thought we were smart as hell when we were young teens! But looking back, we know we made stupid choices because THOUGHT we knew right at the time (we didn’t). The only reason we knew about internet safety is because abuse we were taught at a fairly early age. We knew better (for the most part) because we were taught it! We need to bring internet safety back.

"Tell your mum you're proship then, your family must hate you !!"

My mum knows, she doesn't care. I've told her about my ships for years. She thinks the whole discourse and people harrasing others over fiction is stupid cause it's not real.

My dad doesn't even care and he barely understands shipping as a concept. He just sees it all as my silly little fictions.

Even my nanna who's in her 80s gets my rants about certain ships and is cool with it.

My friends who aren't as online as me usually only have jests and joke I'm going to get cancelled cause I post on tiktok. We make fun of my comments from antis together.

Like seriously, no one is invested in this irl. Even I, as someone who enjoyes talking about this discourse and fandom in general, understand that the moment I turn off my laptop it's no longer relevant.

Do antis deserve an olympic gold medal in reaching, or do they purposefully miss the point of everything we say just so they can keep arguing?

We say: Fiction is not reality OR Fiction does not reflect/affect reality on a 1:1 basis

They hear: Fiction has never, can never, and will never have any effect on reality

We say: Censorship is dangerous because it never stops with the "icky" subjects and is quickly used to target and silence queer people

They hear: Pedophilia is akin to being gay and should be part of the lgbt community

We say: Pedophilia isn't bad because it's gross, it's bad because it's causing harm to a real life human being

They hear: Pedophilia isn't bad OR Pedophilia isn't gross

We say: Let people ship what they want

They hear: I love abusing children and/or I want to fuck my brother

"Since you ship incest, you must want to fuck your siblings/parents/ cousins/etc." "Since you ship adult x minor, you must want to fuck kids!"

No I don't! Hope this helps!

If people would understand that fictional characters are not real and can’t consent and are simply objects for us to play with, things would be so much better for everyone.

So mentioning the age of consent when we’re talking about fictional ships is just dumb.
