Question answered! Thanks OP you fucking idiot!
I am actually a bit sad that the answer turned out to be "mainstream media good" and "fanwork bad" though. :(
Was hoping for a more interesting definition of problematic beyond "things I like are fine, and things I don't like are not fine!" I guess I was being too optimistic about OP having sense.
i recommend being a fan of 1 problematic piece of media at least once in your life
#wincest...that's supernatural right?#Is that the ones with the twins?#I can't remember#either way question answered whoop!#but also sad it was so simple in the end#I feel like OP is probably reacting like Spongebob in that pic on the calmest rollercoaster ever. XDDD Very apt#actually why is it always the weirdly controlling ones that think people should watch something problematic?#They demand that people follow their orders in the notes...but they also demand people watch things that might be uncomfortable for them#but then they also think people who go around demanding things from others should not be on the internet#so...OP is basically doing the exact same thing as that hypothetical 32 year old Julia themselves...#but it's okay when they're doing it I guess?#“Do what I say but when others do this then I hate them!” situation? XD#fandom is as contradictory as ever lol#incest mention tw#paedophilia mention tw#abuse mention tw#I get what they mean about sounding like a wannabe villain though#OP definitely sounds like one...I wonder if their name is Julia. O_O#For those who might still be confused: OP is basically complaining about people not behaving the way they personally want them to#One of their complaint is that other people complain too much about other people not behaving the way they personally want them to#Yes it's very ironic#No I don't think they realise the irony so be gentle with them y'all!#no I dunno if OP is proship or anti or whatever other labels people are using these days don't ask me ^^;;;#And yes I'm very confused by the random insult they tacked on at the end too since they were just answering my question prior to that#still I work under the principle that if someone sends me an insult then I must return the flavour even if their hostility is very random#P.S. Yes OP is insisting that TV shows with incest and abused etc is okay but fanworks with incest and abuse etc is not okay#I don't think they've realised their hypocrisy in that either...#No I do not agree with OP they're very narrowminded

I think it's even more basic than that, you don't have to have any respect for someone to use the right pronouns - if these people genuinely believed that "Bad People" (as stupid as that concept actually is) should be misgendered, why don't they misgender a cisgender "Bad Person", why is Hitler a he, but a trans guy who's committed a much lesser crime is a she? because what you just cannot avoid when you realise that is how it means either that it couldn't be possible for a trans person to be "Bad" and thus they aren't really trans, or that you don't really think anyone is trans it simply is something you say out of politeness, or you think that insulting somebody you don't like by weaponising bigotry is just perfectly okay once they've pissed you off enough, you're not as against bigotry as you claim to be if the target sucks enough, an actual principled stance against bigotry is a smokescreen. that's really what it boils down to - what do you actually believe? when everything gets messy and you drop your beliefs at the slightest shove from complexity, you don't really believe them. it's not the "baseline human respect", it's understandable that when you are pissed off enough you forget how to feel that- it's the hypocrisy. you're not seeing "this guy is a criminal", but rather "this trans is deserving of whatever I can weaponise", and treating them very differently to how you'd treat somebody you saw as a guy, and it implies some level of inconsistent views of even "Good Transes".
hey full offense but the ‘use the right pronouns even if the person is horrible!’ statements arent made to coddle horrible ppl, its saying ‘dont view correct pronouns as a fucking privilege that can be taken away once people decide you’ve fucked up enough’, misgendering someone on purpose is transphobic no matter what bc it equates transphobia as a ‘punishment’ for bad people, pronouns are a part of baseline human respect, its that simple
