Hate that I have to brace myself whenever I want to venture into the tag. Logically I know that a wall of silence + just blocking is absolutely the only correct response, because the fact that they've explicitly put their hate into the ship tag is all the reason not to feed the trolls, and I do do that,
It's just. So frequent and sustained.
I see one, I block one, yet I feel like I've been blocking at least one hostile intruder into the tag every week at a minimum? Rinse and repeat since late 2023.
And these remarks always manage to hit a bizarre note of sanctimonious insult that exposes a hilariously deep insecurity that other people dare to prefer something else.
I'm so. Tired. Even though I never respond and block them immediately, I've still been forced to see it, and I'm sick of putting up with this when simply trying to seek out a thing that brings me joy.
Saw a comment today about private QRTs on their hatepost and they were like oooo they're biiig mad in private—I don't know how to tell you this but it's your own people QRTing it in agreement. Those private QRTs are your supporters. The people on this side block and ignore, block and ignore, nobody would follow you and give you further attention, and nobody is discussing you in big mad mode because it's literally banned in our server, it's so taboo people don't even acknowledge the existence of the consistent hate directed our way or the single invariable shared characteristic of the haters, it's so prohibited to refer to it that we have to feel sad by ourselves instead of relying on fellow fans.
