i'll try to say this in the kindest way possible but what if we don't post bucktommy critical or bucktommy negative posts that people originally censored/kept out of the bucktommy tag by screenshotting them and putting them in the tag? people are allowed to hate a ship. idk what to tell you but they're allowed to have their opinions even if their reasoning seems stupid to you or it very obviously comes with bad faith arguments. as long as they're being decent enough to not cross the line and do keep it in their own tags/blogs, you don't have to be fighting them in our tags. if you so want to, sure do it on your blog, in your dms, in your discord servers. but i'm tired of seeing the blogs i know i have blocked for their silly takes because we keep circulating what they're posting in our own tags. seeing a collage of the stupid, negative, downright homophobic comments curated from all sorts platforms in the bucktommy tag, in fact, feels no different in practice than seeing the antis post in the bucktommy tag, especially when you don't add the useful tags like "discourse" or "fandom criticism" to your posts.
just my own two cents, hell maybe it just bothers me idk, then keep doing it i guess.
#maybe i should stay out of the tag#and this is a very genuine post bc i havent actively been in a tumblr fandom in about 7-8 years and i dont remember if this was the norm#i already have moots who like to get critical about what other ppl are sharing and thats all fine and dandy#and i dont wanna come across as if im trying to police anyone but keeping those stuff to your blog/followers who will want to engage with#the discourse seems more productive?#it just inherently doesnt feel any different when i see an anti bucktommy post by an anti in the tag vs a bucktommy reposting it#here have a kinder version#i knew i had this in my drafts bc ive been feeling irritated about this for weeks#911#bucktommy#discourse
