#there's just so much context to every insane destiel moment and then non-watchers see a gif and go 'what even is this'

honestly thanks for the closest thing the destiel shippers have to propaganda bc so far the "propaganda" has been "they're just voting against us? that's not a way to vote!" and "this is the supernatural website!" which is. not convincing, speaking as someone who is truly more neutral to both pairings and... people who are saying the latter has been in spnblr for probably the entirety of its airings but from my experience probably more ppl have grown out of supernatural -- see: how many people had supernatural urls from 2012, 2010, to now

Honestly a big part of it is probably a) we know full well that Destiel polls get flooded with meme votes so like. Joking about the Destiel website is a lot less energy to give for a bunch of people that are mostly joke voting anyway 🤷‍♀️ like the voters' opinions on Destiel are 99% already set so any propaganda effort is something you are doing just for you. Most of spnblr is passing around posts about the poll and our eternal losing state more than the poll itself.

And second... Destiel propaganda is like. Really hard. There's so much fucking context in a 12 year slowburn. The Colette parallels are possibly the most insane ship subtext I've ever seen but trying to put that in propaganda form is either a bunch of bloggers going "they didn't even cast Abel 💀💀💀" or a long post where I'm desperately hoping you haven't moved on / written me off as making shit up from nothing by paragraph 7 because I cannot emphasize enough how much that was actually an insane Destiel thing in the show but also I have to compare dialogue lines from 3 different episodes and the overarching Mark of Cain plot from seasons 9 and 10 to even begin to explain how.

The angel saves a man from hell and then turns on Heaven for him in a single season? Amazing. Now I need you to watch the next roughly 250 episodes so we can talk about Advanced Thanatology and that entire ending scene.
