#common sense i fear

trying to get over my need to clarify myself to everyone who misunderstands me and just let it go

esp with the recent plagiarism stuff some, people just spread the most bad faith interpretation (not sure if on purpose or just actually confused?)of what i was saying and people will ofc read it and believe it

but theres only so many times i can clarify this stuff and my full thoughts are out there if people want to read so i got to let it go atp 😀

dont project a fully realized nuanced opinion onto a 3 sentence meme post

man arcane fandom is insane rn, why did i just read a whole comment thread of someone saying liking caitlyn is morally wrong. liking a morally not great character doesnt determine your morality at all?? supporting their actions maybe but liking them and having discussions reasoning why they do what they do is better than 'bad person end of story'

I still remember how the fandom treated Hen and Karen as a characters during the whole "Hen cheats on Karen" situation. But all of a sudden when Eddie does the exact same things extremists be babying him like he was the one who got cheated on. Common sense guys, common sense.

If You're Anti-Proship then you are pro-harassment. That's literally it. No debate to be had. Proshipping means you are Anti-Harassment. Everyone was a proshipper a few years ago, it just didn't have a name yet. New fandom culture is all about making everything a "safe space" and when you have an opinion that's outside of the norm they dogpile you and suddenly their safe space isn't so safe??

If you want to have a safe space for EVERYONE then you can't be anti-proship because that doesn't make sense.

'#dead dove do not eat" is my favorite tag because the amount of people that simply do not read the tag but read the rest of them then complain that the story contained all the tags previously mentioned to the dead dove tag gives me the same feeling as people who leave one star reviews on recipes after they didn't follow the recipe at all, and are like "well I swapped literally everything out and it didn't turn out like the recipe, 1 star)

And I live for that kind of lack of common sense.

proships? on a proship website? it’s more common than you think!

seeing antis on ao3 is so funny because babe what are you doing on the proship site complaining about seeing proship shit on there

[gigigazelleloves]

Wait sorry did that last anon just imply that a man would never cheat on a woman if he was sexually attracted to her???

Oh honey no...

Yeah basically. In that theory I guess Jay-Z, Dave Grohl, Kevin Hart, and Adam Levine are all gay men according to their not well thought through logic.

“why do i see proship stuff on social media ALL THE TIME 😡😡” idk probably because you keep interacting with proship accounts + their posts and algorithms feed you the stuff you interact with?? and you refuse to block people for some reason? just a thought

“You are a misanthrope? YOU MUST HATE ME!! I HATE YOU TOO!!”

Misanthropy: Misanthropy is the general hatred, dislike, or distrust of the human species, human behavior, or human nature. A misanthrope or misanthropist is someone who holds such views or feelings.

I won't hate you if you are not an ass. Most misanthropists won't actually. There is not only one sort of misanthropy, there are multiple. I personally have a dislike and distrust towards humanity.

(Also, what's up with the alterhuman community changing the definition? <- a non-human folk)

hopping up on my special interest soap box to say: i think we as a fandom should discuss the satire in danganronpa V3 more.

idk if it is just me but i have always viewed this game as a satire, if only just because of the ending. it exagerrates the formula set up by the previous games to criticize the current state of media and media consumption. i know a lot of people in the fandom don't like V3, and i think that is by design. it is ridiculous, it is over the top, the ending is a punch to the face, but it's all on purpose. you're supposed to be uncomfortable because it is a satire. (of course you don't have to like the game, i just think it is intentionally like that)

the whole theme of fiction vs reality is put in there intentionally to make fun of the fandomization of danganronpa, as well as to poke at game studios and companies that put out media in general. tsumugi, in my interpretation, is representative of danganronpa fans (hence why she's the ultimate cosplayer). she is the mastermind. you aren't supposed to like her. her insistence on the idea that "fiction doesn't affect reality" is a direct criticism of that exact idea in real life fandom. the idea that this is the "53rd" danganronpa is directly making fun of other pieces of media "jumping the shark" because fans insist upon it. this is not to say you can't like tsumugi, i think you absolutely can, i just think her character represents some key ideas relating to the satire of the game.

this is why everything in the game is SO over the top. kirumi being the prime minister, korekiyo both having DID AND being a serial killer in a reference to the first game, EVERYONE'S over the top backstories (gonta and keebo come to mind), it's all acting as an exaggeration of common tropes (albeit highly problematic in several areas, not trying to excuse those aspects by any means).

and then there's kaede. they set her up as a strong female protagonist, only to kill her chapter 1 to be replaced by a male protag. on paper this is very misogynistic, but in the context of satire it is an exaggeration of the danganronpa formula. of course we couldn't have a female protag in a main line game, of course it would have to be a man. shuichi having a secret ahoge only adds to this; it's making fun of the trope. the best part is that i truly do love both of these characters, and their role in the satire doesn't diminish the excellent writing that went into them and the story.

this entirely shapes how i view this game. it manages to tell an incredibly compelling story with very complex characters while making fun of itself at the same time (as a good satire should). i know a lot of people have said they feel like the writers of v3 must have hated danganronpa, and while i see exactly what they mean i don't think that's necessarily true. i think it was an intentional choice as a work of satire.

i can see an intense love behind the writing of this game. the characters are rich and the story is compelling. the ending just serves to send home the point they wanted to make. i think it adds a really beautiful perspective to the danganronpa series as a whole.

i feel like people don't understand that rhysand didn't stop elain and azriel from kissing because he doesn't want them together, but because he knows azriel would easily defeat lucien in the case the autumn court boy invokes the blood duel.

[androgynouscomputerthing]

sorry but i will be bitter

please stop putting headcanons and ship art and such into the canon jiang cheng tag. its genuinely making it difficult to actually find good posts and discussions about his character.

and no, somebody saying that fanon jc is wildly different from canon jc is not being an anti, its just pointing out the obvious

i think that — and according to some people i am going to sound like an anti — the fanon jc stans need to cool it. you’re not “reclaiming the tag” you’re annoying. this tag was made to not disrupt Fanon discussion. it is here to depict and discuss Canon jiang cheng.

recognising that other people don’t hold the same opinion as you is a part of maturing
