I think every fandom should just stop doing ship wars. Why is it hard to just agree to disagree, and talk about other things???

Why would anyone come @ you for a harmless ship??? Even if you don’t ship it or you’re uncomfortable with it, there’s no reason to tell others to die or threaten them. Live and let live. I avoid liph//yo, y//hyo and a//hyo like the plague because I have very personal reasons I feel uncomfortable to the point of being sick with them, but there’s no need for me or any other aiyuu shipper to yell at those who do ship it.

If you don’t want to associate with people who ship your squick ships, that’s fine, you can still be respectful. You don’t have to be friends with everyone in the fandom, but you do have to be respectful. We are taught “if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say anything at all” as toddlers. Why is it a hard concept to grasp?

And I’m going to speak directly to the aiyuu shippers that I’ve seen on tiktok and twitter. Obviously not all of them, but you fucking know who you are.

STOP being rude to other shippers. The aiyuu fandom was amazing a couple years ago but lately there has been a small influx of toxic shippers. You’re the reason why people are growing uncomfortable in this fandom. I don’t give a rats ass if I piss people off with this post, I’m not going to apologize for saying you’re literally fucking this fandom over with your toxicity.

I have other reasons why I dislike liph//yo and the other two ships for the ot3, on top of my personal reasons. But I’m not going to come @ other shippers for having different opinions. If I befriend one or some, then I’ll simply ask them to abstain from talking about that particular ship, and likewise, if they don’t like/ship aiyuu, then I’ll abstain from talking about that. We can literally talk about other ships and other fandoms.

This goes for other shippers too, it’s not just aiyuu shippers (there’s just been an influx of them recently). For quite a long time, there’s been a lot of y//hyo shippers who are pretty awful too. Before herotaru dropped, one shipper said something along the lines of, “when y//hyo becomes canon, aiyuu shippers are going to look so fucking stupid”. And people who say aiyuu shippers are dumb because aiyuu is “just fanservice” also need to just shut up too.

It’s all fiction. It’s not that deep. 

Just be happy if your ship becomes canon, and if it doesn’t, who cares? Sure, I love canon in a lot of things, but in another fandom I’m in, 2/3 of my ships are not canon.

Just leave other shippers alone and vibe in your bubbles. It’s not rocket science.
