Anyway hopefully that weeds some of you abuse supporters out, if you somehow managed to hang around this long and not read my bio or pinned tweet but followed me anyway. I will not be discoursing here again

Do antishippers consider themselves conservatives?

Wikipedia quotes are in orange to provide definitions to clarify my point: American conservatives tend to support Christian values, moral absolutism, traditional family values, and American exceptionalism, while opposing abortion, euthanasia, same-sex marriage, and transgender rights.

Further breakdown of points: Christian values include the concept of 'sin' as a moral failing and heavily stigmatize sex for any method other than for heterosexual procreation, and a goal of 'purity from sin' includes the absence of sinful thoughts. It includes censorship of sexual content, especially in films and on television, sexual abstinence outside marriage and abstinence-only sex education to protect children from topics that may harm them.

Traditional family values places a parent (usually the father) as the head of the household, with a submissive wife and obedient children who are seen as property. It encourages families, rather than the government, to take care of children. It is also used to advocate against an enormous list of ideologies, including feminism (which disrupts the masculine center of power) and divorce (which disrupts the traditional family model)

Moral absolutism is an ethical view that some (potentially all) actions are intrinsically right or wrong, regardless of context or consequence. It can also be referred to as black and white thinking.

To quote fan-lore: Anti-shipper is someone who is against the portrayal of certain romantic relationships. Since the mid-2010s, the term is most often used to refer to a fan who believes that it is morally wrong to ship some ships.

In contrast, the general concept of a pro-shipper is that they believe "fiction is not reality" and often see every ship as valid, regardless of the opinions others may have towards the ship. Proshippers and Antishippers most often butt heads regarding (perceived or literal) representations of incest, non-con or dub-con, underage or age gap romances.

Please note that your own individual race, sexuality, religion, etc. do not exclude you from either category. Being LGBTQ and being liberal are two different, though often overlapping, categories.
