#but it also DEFININITELY isn't incest

[takaraphoenix]

And the award for the farthest fucking reach for incest goes to: The DuckT@les fandom. Apparently. Seriously, why do I even browse through other fandoms anymore...? It’s just frustrating.

Like, I don’t ship on that show, but I can see why people would want to ship the only girl character with one of the triplets. I mean. They’re literally the only ones around, I guess.

And cue in the antis: Nooo, don’t ship that since she is the “adopted niece” of their uncle.

First of all; he is their uncle’s uncle. That alone is such a far climb along the family tree.

And just because he embraces his servant’s granddaughter and gives her the honorary title of niece does not actually make her his niece. Not even a fucking adoption happened?? She still has her grandmother and is living with her grandmother, who is her legal guardian??

Just... how far do antis have to reach to whack other people with their Moral Superiority Gavel.

Because this is some next-level pathetic bullshit right there.

Just because your grand-uncle decides to call a girl his honorary niece does not in literally any stretch of the definition make the four kids “adopted siblings”. Not even close. Only if either the legal guardian of the triplets, who is not actually their grand-uncle, were to legally adop her, or if her grandma were to legally adopt the triplets - that is how fucking ADOPTION WORKS.

How does tumblr bend over backwards to somehow reach for incest whenever they don’t like a ship? You can just not like a ship! Not every ship you dislike has to be incest for you to dislike it, for fuck’s sake!

Stop. Calling. Every. Thing. That. Makes. You. Uncomfortable. Incest.

IT IS NOT.

Gods. How do idiots not get that into their tiny anti brains. I really don’t get that. Just don’t invent new meaning for words that have an established meaning.

Just because two people are close does not actually turn it into incest. That is literally how relationships start, you know that, right? You know that. Right? You gotta get ~close~ to someone before you get ~together~. And if you start calling every time two characters are close or throw around familial terms with each other “ACTUAL INCEST!!!” when being shipped, then just f you.

Men casually call each other “bro”, that does not actually make them brothers. That is not how that works.

And an old, sentimental man declaring to an excited little girl that she is now his niece does not actually make her his niece and even less so make her suddenly the sister to his nephews.

That’s some seriously impressive brain-acrobatics you did there.

I get that you wouldn’t like any of those ships. But guess what? Instead of playing moral police and inventing new definitions for the terms “incest” and “adoption”, how about you just fucking blacklist the ship tags??
