question: does your specific "proshippers dni" mean more of a "dni if you will be talking about «proship» ships" or a "dni if you're an advocate of letting people ship what they ship as long as they tag it properly". I'd say it just feels that your a) extremely thoughtful analysis and willingness to reach out with it and b) degree of acceptance of people who do use things as pure escapism feels contradictory to a blanket "no proshippers" ban. you are of course free to have any boundary you like and if it is indeed option 2 I will not encroach on it further.

I'm gonna try to keep it super straightforward and concise because by now I'm sure everyone knows I yap.

The pro shippers DNI interact disclaimer is just there for me. To make me feel 'safe', you could say. Not in the sense that I think pro-shippers are going to attack me (I don't think most people care, to be honest), but in the sense that I have to have it on every single platform I frequent otherwise I will combust. Don't ask me why /lh. You don't want me to get into it.

Thing is, I don't check. As long as I'm not forced to be exposed to it and the community/culture around it, I actually don't worry too hard about who might be interacting with my stuff most of the time. I know I can't control other people, and shipping discourse really isn't life's biggest problem. I am also fully aware of all the nuances to it. I just react very aggressively to pro-shippers/pro-ship rhetoric (or advocacy as you call it) and just the whole........... space, so I try to disengage all together.

So, in short. It's not a 'ban' it's more like. My emotional support DNI disclaimer lol

#it's why I've been hiding away from fandom communities. for so long. especially genshin because it's so. big. and young #more so young as in the franchise is barely what. not even 5 years old. and the demographic is as well. baby's first fandom type shit #by the way. it's not just ship discourse that I'm like this with. the rules in my head are loud and plentiful and not always appropriate #That is not to say that I don't have actual Thoughts around the topic.

It's not good for me and I'm not here to change people's mind. in the very sense of the word it triggers me #and I will end up behaving in ways. that I don't necessarily want to. I can't be normal about it is the TLDR #if you are a pro shipper or identify yourself with that 'faction' or part of what it says. you can do whatever you want #just don't talk to me about it LOL unless we are friends and there's a space where a meaningful conversation can actually take place #even then. . . . . . . . . . .#anyway. hypotheticals. don't dwell on them too hard #BY THE WAY I don't like anti-shippers either KBNDJHAJHBSJHBSDJHBASJHBDJSHBJHBSJHBJHDFBJHBSJHBAJHBDJHBJHJHBSJHBAJHJHBDFJHBJDHJHBSDKJDNJKSNDK #not to the same extent obviously. but like. the bottom line is. just don't talk to me about ship discourse #ask
