#let the comship be a comship

Azutara makes me feral because of the sheer amount of (unexplored) toxic yuri potential it has.

how it feels to enter what seems like a really cool fandom only to find it overflowing with puritans and antis:

[darci-tbh]

everytime I see antis call themselves punk I lose hope in the internet again

I don't know how to say this but policing people's right to create and consume any fiction they want AND advocating for the corporal punishment of "thought criminals" cannot and will not ever be punk. shut up

[charlizie]

“Freaks DNI!” what do you mean by that. because some people consider gay and trans people to be freaks. some people consider pocs and other minorities to be freaks. what do you mean by freaks dni

[vampyreribbon]

antis: protect victims!

also antis: oh you're a proshipper and a victim? okay. i hope it happens to you again lol <3

???????????????

[kynibyou]

the inherent tension between you and that one character who’s almost a romantic f/o— that invaded your mind but just… isn’t quite there yet… maybe there’s a crush or some feelings, but who knows when or if it’ll happen?

[sweet-ladys-things]

Antis: "How is writing about murder/gore and pedophilia/incest the same!? Drawing gore is way different!!"

They're both crimes.

That's how they're the same.

They both will send you to jail irl. Both murder and pedophilia will send you to jail. That's how they're the same.

That's why writing/drawing murder and torture is in the same boat as pedophilia. They're just two different forms of horror. If drawing torture doesn't mean you want to actually torture someone then drawing incest doesn't mean you actually want to have sex with your siblings.

Because they are the same.

Made this, can’t wait to piss off a few people 😍😍😍

Now featuring the whole ass image because I noticed that people took out the first stage for some reason and because art so nice ima make all of y’all see it

Idk if any of y’all have also been through this before but it’s an oddly common occurrence with antis I have been noticing

Btw don’t take this post seriously, it’s just a little goofy thing I made to kill some time

💢 Antis I swear to fucking god do not interact

If antis are going to start calling anime fanfiction “pedo propaganda”, then I cannot stress enough how important it is to actually learn what real propaganda looks like.

Great example: if your in the US, turn on any service that gives you ads. Sure this works in other countries too though! YouTube, Hulu, or anything else, doesn’t really matter. There’s a pattern I want y’all to look for, it’s the depiction of the upper class. It might look like upper middle class, but that is not where the upper middle class is really at right now considering everyone is constantly struggling financially. In every advertisement I’ve seen, every commercial that try’s to make you buy their product or sign up for something, it’s always depictions of “nice” upper class people. Never the lower class. The actors are always attractive for their age range, their homes are always spotless, and they can afford to live. It depicts the life that most everyday Americans want, and it’s just at the price of buying something. This is the most prominent form of propaganda, and it’s everywhere. Capitalism at the stage it’s at now, in the point of our society where we’re at now, is spreading propaganda in every corner so that we can buy things to be poorer. It’s propaganda because it’s spreading the idea that most Americans belong to the upper class, when most people are lower to lower middle class where the economy is at currently. Even the upper middle class isn’t doing all that great.

If antis are going to complain about propaganda, they need to learn what it looks like. Because it’s not in the form of a stupid fanfic some 14 year old wrote. It’s not in the form of lolisho. It’s not even in the form of a giant flyer on the side of a building that says “racism is good actually!” because that’s way too obvious to convince the general public!Propaganda doesn’t even need to be about spreading something bad either. Ever wonder why queer topics are so big in the US current government right now? Why the Democratic Party really pushes for equality for minorities (not just queer people). It’s bc they are using our own kindness as a way to convince us that “hey the government is your friend actually! Look how much we love you people who belong to minorities!”. They are using a GOOD message against us to gain our trust, never trust the government! They always have alternative motives behind EVERYTHING. That’s propaganda!

“You are not immune to propaganda” exists for a reason, and it means that it hides in every corner of your everyday life. It means that it’s designed to be unnoticeable by the average person. Learn what propaganda looks like, learn how to avoid listening to it the best you can.

HEY KIDS DON'T FUCKING DO THIS

This account just followed me and I am SHOCKED. This is not okay. A minor should NOT be in a "sus and horny" Discord server, and DEFINITELY SHOULD NOT RUN ONE

Report this server if you can. This is dangerous and irresponsible. We cannot let a space like this exist in our community. WE CANNOT LET MINORS INTO NSFW SPACES.

*Do not send hateful messages to OOP. They're doing something horribly wrong, but please remember they are a minor.*

[ivan-braginski-2001]

I hate to sound chronically online but genuinely why do antis only go after eastern creators on the very rare occasion they go after a larger artist?? Like it's such a strange phenomenon where they'll say that Hetalia is racist or MHA promotes pedophilia or that Beastars is for zoophiles or how SpyXFamily is lolicon bait

But those SAME FUCKING PEOPLE are SouthPark fans, or Star Wars fans, or into FNaF, or they're slasher fans. Like genuinely.

Why is edgy content ONLY okay when a western artist does it?? Like I'm not trying to be rude or call people racist but I genuinely just do not understand.

what my 65yo father has to say about antis:

let me preface this by saying, i literally wish i had what just happened on video to go viral on TikTok. i was shook by this conversation down to my bones; and if you could see my father - a loud old Italian man with dramatic hand gestures - say what he had to say, i think this shit would blow up. but as i was obviously not filming him while we were eating, i will have to relay to you the story with my words.

so i'm sitting eating dinner at the coffee table with my father while watching TV, as Americans often do instead of eating at the dinner table, and since the news was on he started telling me this story that had been recently mentioned on TV once again from maybe ten years ago (it was in 2014, you can read about it here) where these two 12-year-old girls killed one of their friends as a sacrifice to the Slender Man. yeah, real thing. fucked up.

and so my father told me about how they interviewed one of the killer's mothers, and when questioned about where her daughter's motive could've come from, she said something along the lines of: you know, when i was a kid, i was into Stephen King and horror - and so when my kid was into that kind of stuff, i didn’t think it was a big deal.

so, of course, my response was "yeah, being into that stuff isn’t a big deal at all - it's normal - but being a sociopath and murdering someone is not normal; it's fucked up. but there's nothing wrong with being into horror stories - they're just stories meant to entertain - it doesn't make you a murderer to enjoy Halloween - but it would if you put on a Michael Myers mask and went out and stabbed people." and, of course, like any sane person, my father agreed with me.

then, continuing this line of conversation, i started talking about the concept of how "fiction isn’t reality," and how a frightening amount of people don't understand that; and i literally started telling him about antis - people on the internet who attack and harass others over "problematic" or "inappropriate" fictional interests.

i used well-known pop culture examples like: if you're into Game of Thrones and like Jaime and Cersei together or wanted Jon and Daenerys to end up together (i didn't think he would process the term "shipping," but clearly by the end of this conversation i think i was wrong), that people (antis) will say things like "you should die," and that you "support inc*st in real life," and that "you're disgusting."

i also used the examples of "toxic relationships" in pop culture, like the Joker and Harley Quinn, or Kylo Ren and Rey, and how if you’re into those kinds of fictional relationships that people (antis) will say that you "support toxic relationships," and that you are "glorifying abuse," and that it all "must be what you really want and believe is right or good."

and my fucking 65-year-old father literally goes: "I don’t understand. It’s a TV show. Don't they know it’s fake?"

queue my jaw dropping to the fucking ground because i'm like. YES. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT PRO-SHIPPERS ARE TRYING TO SAY AND THESE PEOPLE DON'T GET IT.

he was flabbergasted, my pals. the shock in his eyes was incredible to behold.

and, oh boy, that isn't even the best part, guys.

my father then says, "Don’t tell me it’s like that with anime too?"

and i said, "it's worse with anime."

and i fucking swear to you - no joke, on my life and baby Jesus' cradle - again my 65-year-old father looks at me and says, “It’s a fucken cartoon."

... ... ...

... i can't ...

i can't end this post better than that.

[arsynnotarson]

this has been in my mind for while

once you create a media online, publicly, specifically with your own characters, they arent your characters anymore. you cant dictate what happens to them.

yes you created them and control canon, but fandom is notorious for being... fandom. you cant tame fandom. they will forever do what they want, because thats what makes it fun.

you can say that people shouldnt ship a child and their father, but dont expect them to follow it. yes, creators can have boundaries on what they dont want to see personally, but they shouldnt control the fans.

if they're well-versed enough in the internet to create content for an audience, they should know when and who to block.

[vampyreribbon]

were any of you guys ever antis? i used to be "an anti" back in the day, though it was more of a coverup and me protecting myself from harassment kind of thing, if i'm being honest.

when i was labelling myself as an anti i was still very much reading yaoi and fics involving taboo shit. it's really kind of sad that some of us have to PRETEND to be antis in order to not get harassed.

[cadengravity]

Media: have canon profic/proship/comship stuff

Antis: PROSHITTER STAY AWAY FOR THIS MEDIA, THIS IS FOR US
