[proshippers-against-censorship]

i just saw someone writing a whole ass paragraph in a youtube comment section accusing another person of being a potential animal abuser bc they said they have a crush on Bandit from Bluey.

these people must be so insufferable irl, i can't even imagine.

Jesus fuckin Christ.

Antis always say "Why is it always proshippers with the worst art" but nah why is it always the most aggressive antis with the most genuinely hideous art I've ever seen

I would like to point out the no art is truly hideous, but the actions of the artist can make it hideous.

found an anti who ranted to another anti about how disgusting "lolita" is and

well

isn't that the entire point of the story???? That Humbert is a bad and disgusting person??? Or do they think it romanticizes pedophilia?

I daresay that most antis who speak of Lolita have no knowledge about what Lolita is about. I reckon few of them have so much as picked up the story, even less have read it, even less have taken the time to analyze and understand it. And thus, they miss the point.

really hate that 'i'm not a proshipper or antishipper, i'm an adult who thinks incest is bad' stance, because right there in that phrase is the person acting as if real and fictional/roleplay incest are the same thing to be put on the same level (which then in turn waters down the meaning) à la antis.

*sigh*

As a victim of CSEM, I’d like to confirm that even when it’s placed in the clearnet and reported early it takes forever for them to find out and do something about it. Let’s not clog their systems with fictional characters when real children are being hurt.

Preach.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

I actually hate when antis use the slenderman stabbing as an example.

"Well! Erm! See! They thought he was real! Fiction DOES effect reality!!!"

Like.

Ah yes. A tragedy sparked by the early-on-set schizophrenia of 12-year-old girls who genuinely believed that their hallucinations were the real slenderman and that he was gonna kill them both unless he be appeased.

I'm not saying the two were justified at all, but like. Ffs. This isn't some Gotcha Card. Its a fucking tragedy no matter what way you talk about it.

There's talking about it from the victims side, absolutely devastating and heartbreaking.

Then there's talking about it from the other two's side, as someone who gets hallucinations NOW, I cant fucking imagine getting them at the age of 12. That's fucking sad.

Gonna say it b4 some anti says it in an accusatory way.

I genuinely, with my full heart, feel bad for everyone in the Slenderman Stabbing Situation, yes, including the two girls who stabbed their friend.

I'm happy the girls are all getting help tho.

I just wished antis would stop using the mental crisis of two 12-year-olds as a gotcha-card because it just comes off as tacky and borderline disrespectful.

- anon bc ppl scare me when it comes to my thoughts on it -

So glad you brought this up, actually. Typically folks point out that most folks aren't schizophrenic preteens, but folks also fail to remember that this event was real and horrible.

I'm a CSEM survivor and also proship, not only am i bothered by the whole "antis label anything they dont like CP", i'm also bothered by how even though they seem to be OBSESSED with labeling things like that, they do it while using silly (and imo borderline disrespectful) terms for it. Cheese Pizza? Kiddie Porn? Child Corn? If you are not prepared to use the term CHILD. SEXUAL. EXPLOITATION MATERIAL. then maybe you shouldn't talk about it that often and be willing to go on wars on the internet over what is considered CSEM or not.

God i hate antis.

If you have to censor a word to say it, you shouldn't have anything to do with that word in the first place, because you clearly aren't mature enough to handle it the way it should be handled.

hi. former anti here. recently changed my ways and accept proshipping now. what can i expect from being a proshipper?

Well. If you do publicly label yourself as a proshipper, you can expect death threats from antis.

Past that, though, anticipate a peaceful life of simply blocking what disgusts you and moving on with your day, rather than stressing about what others write, draw, or interact with.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

anti shippers are the pro lifers of fandom space

Loud and annoying? Check.

Cares more about control than actual kids? Check.

Nailed it, anon.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

I'm tired of being asked "isn't (insert character) a minor?". For fucks sake, it's a fictional character.

🙃

[proshippers-against-censorship]

i don’t feel comfortable with most dark ship content, i don’t like discussing it, some of it is triggering for me - but i’m a proshipper because i think it’s fucking weird for anyone to think that my personal squicks and boundaries should decide what other people do in their own spaces. proshippers have been way better about respecting my triggers and warning for things than antishippers have, and proshippers have never harassed me or shown me things to trigger me intentionally, unlike antishippers!

Iconic.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

sick of new-wave underage proshippers thinking they HAVE to enjoy all forms of "problematic media" to be considered proship. i myself am proship, however, cant stand loli/shota. makes me uncomfortable, triggers me, hence why i dont interact with it. im sick of seeing kids literally forcing themselves to interact with all aspects of dark fiction just because theyre proship. its okay to have discomforts. its okay to have limts, as long as you accept not everyone feels the way that you do. idk if this makes sense. im tired. glad to see the proship community thriving anyway.

Say it louder.

Scream it.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

Proshippers over at bluesky have created a bunch of list of people with variations of "proship dni" for people to mass block, it legit scared antis so much that they tried the same tactic when Japanese artists on twitter got exposed to how shitty a lot of antis are: removing their "proship dni" to dodge the block list

Oh heavens.

"These people I explicitly state on my pfp that I don't want to interact with made lists so others could block me so they don't interact with me! Oh heavens, oh no! What if I want to interact with THEM? INJUSTICE!"

[proshippers-against-censorship]

a loud "lolicons are pedophiles" person retweeting a "furry ISN'T zoophilia" post is peak comedy tbh (just witnessed that in the wild) the double standard is terrifying

Oh my god.

Hypocrisy. Hypocrisy everywhere.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

i am employed AND proship because I value creativity, fun, and anti-bullying still even though i'm an adult. Being employed doesn't mean you have to be uncaring about anything in this world lol

Hell yeah.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

People: I want more realistic media that portrays things appropriately without fetishizing them!!

Media: portrays a realistic rape scene or suicidal scene or depression scene

people: no not like that

Yuppppp
