#like people venting about how people say slurs (while censoring them): no tw

[proshipconfessions]

Confession from me. I find it annoying when people post harassment from antis in our main tags with no tw. Like you are literally just forcing anyone in the tags to see how much people hate us, and in a lot of contexts, actively platforming the harassment and showing it to more of us.

“Wow, this is so crazy that they would say this…” isn’t an interesting enough caption to enthrall me into looking at someone’s essay about how they wish that we all would die. (Although to be honest, practically no caption is. At least give it a trigger warning to give me the opportunity to opt out of seeing it. I’m trying my best to curate my online experience, so work with me.)

I got a confession talking about this in a somewhat similar way a while ago and agreed with it super strongly, but there’s something extra that I wanna say because I just saw a bunch of it.

I don’t want to be called slurs. Stop posting antis calling us slurs just uncensored, not under the cut, no trigger warning. Like as someone who’s a minority and has been repeatedly harassed with slurs irl for being a minority, completely unrelated to this discourse, why would I want to see more fucking people calling me them? I look in the proship tags to try to find more interesting posts from people who have good takes. I don’t look in the proship tags to have to stand face to face with harassment that is being handpicked and shown to me by other proshippers.
