Tw: sui bait

Newly introjected fictive culture is coming from a source where you’re not a good person and now one of the other members in the system hates your guts and when you said there wasn’t anything anyone could do about the fact you’re here, they tell you that you could kill yourself 😔💔

sorry if this is too triggering /gen

Just received the funniest fucking suicide bait of all time. Like ah yes, I've been told to kill myself because I'm trans, because I'm gay, because I said trans women are real, because I said I hate terfs, because I said people shouldn't be called pedophiles because they say hi to children at conventions, and *checks notes* because I said I like the beatles. Cool?

Fuck you anonymous shithead

Seeing as you are directly referring my posts in your comments, you must be stalking my tumblr, so:

You’re incredibly fucked up and twisted actually, telling me to hang myself and that you want me dead and think that I don’t deserve to live because I like a ship that was canon in a TV show.

What the ever loving fuck is wrong with you.

You people are such whiny little freaks that really can’t live with the fact that in one Elseworld in the fucking multiverse had him marry a different woman. ONE! Fucking Christ. How small’s your brain. Other people are out there handling the fact that their faves have generally multiple love interests in canon. You have to deal with the fact that in one live action show, that you could just... not watch... and never think about again... he marries a different woman, and you completely lose your ability to act like normal human beings toward others.

Go read your precious comic books and shut the fuck up.

Your ship is canon in the comics, just go and read them. Literally, read them. Reread them. Read other comics where they’re canon. Then read fanfiction about them.

Learn how to filter your AO3 searches so you don’t have to see fics about the ships you don’t like. Stop actively seeking them out. Because this fic is nearly a year old, but you keep commenting on it.

Stop telling strangers on the internet to kill themselves because they like a ship you don’t like. Holy shit how can you possibly ever think that’s an okay thing to do, you messed up freak.

Over a ship. A ship that was canon in a show that ended years ago. In a properly tagged fic that you could have avoided if you just fucking filtered your search.

I need you to think about your actions again. You told someone to kill themselves over a fictional ship. You said you want them dead for liking a fictional ship. I need you to consider the reality of that statement.

What are you going to do if you send this kind of thing to someone who is genuinely in a fragile state of mind, who is genuinely suicidal already.

Someone who was so close already and being bombarded by one hateful message after the other from you will be the last push they need.

What are you going to do if you telling someone to kill themselves over a dumb ship war is actually going to result in them doing that?

I just read a "funny" post saying Peter Parker, Peter who has struggled with anxiety, depression and lost SO MANY loved one, would suicide bait people on the internet and... I am so glad I'm no longer active in that fandom. These gen z Twitter kids clearly know NOTHING about this character beyond the fact than Tom Holland is hot.

Summary of The Cat of The Year poll atrocities of 2023/2024

I'm sure that most people on this side of tumblr have seen the Jellie vs. Nefarious Anglerfish poll going around with like 60k votes at this point, and I'd really like clear up some of what happened since I was around for the whole thing.

Url blocked out for op's privacy. They have already left but don't look for it if you haven't seen it/don't harrass them if you already have.

1. The previous round (preparation)

I discovered the poll in its previous round, needless to say she beat Jort's ass severely. This was around the 3rd of january, meaning that this round finished before jellie's passing with only about 7k votes. Op did add their own piece of propaganda from their main:

...which was FINE. (except for stuff we'll see later) Of course running a poll while biased isn't ideal but I for one didn't even know they were the op until much later. I also added my own piece in a separate thread, and they didn't interact with it at all. There was no drama.

2. The Finale

Jellie unfortunately passed away right before the starting of this poll, which was the catalyst for what happened next. Op did exactly as last time and added a slightly more mean spirited encouragement to vote for the other contestant. This is the point where I believe that i fucked up personally.

I added this thinkpiece accusing op of associating all mcyters with Dream (who we all hate for the record) despite them not alluding to him at all. This is because tumblr has a history of disimissing all mcyters as... everything that dream was been accused of. Op did allude to not caring for mcyt. but they didn't say what i accused them of. This is important to point out because this reblog of mine is still being spread. Jellie was in the lead at the time, but not by the time i woke up next morning.

I won't be including anyone else's additions because I don't want to put blame on any specific person. Just felt like clearing up mine.

3. The Fuckening

Some time later op made this post to their personal blog:

which is insanely shitty because, as other people have pointed out, the "lame ass youtube cat" didn't die to inconvinience op or ruin their fun, and people would have probably voted for her anyway because jelly is universally beloved in the mcyt community. This isn't anti democratic. This post was added to the poll with a caption saying op should not be running this poll, and it took off. Op later went on to say that this was a joke:

This apology was not taken well by people, (including me) because "you were not meant to see it" isn't an apology and they still very much made fun of someone's pet dying. Safe to say this did not make the drama stop and only added fuel to the flame. I believe this was the point where the conversation of mcyt fans being unjustly sent hate to was reignited.

We should discuss that! it's a real thing that happens often and is equal to childish bullying. However, in this case, OP was the only one getting sent hate to my knowledge. The notes were mostly saturated by mcyt fans, and even now i can only find one or two hateful stance towards us under the whole 20k notes post.

4. Conclusions

Op posted a second apology to the catoftheyear blog to try and calm people down (i believe this is comprehensive and a lot better than the previous one) The blog was deactivated shortly after, so i only have my phone screenshots of it that i also added to the poll itself at some point:

(Edit) Here's proof that op did not write the justification they got criticised for, from the notes of the original poll:

This apology didn't get seen, or get accepted by enough people, so op made this statement on their personal:

Needless to say I am deeply dissapointed (and guilty) that it's come to this. Yes, op said tasteless things that made us all angry, but telling a human being to commit suicide is worse than being insensitive about a stranger's pet dying. Even after I posted about the blog being decatived i had someone come into my notes to wish that "they never find happiness" i mean wtf. This isn't like shipping where we can do whatever without the content creator's input. this is fucking harrowing and i can't imagine how i'd feel if this was done in my/my pet's name especially after losing them as recently as a week ago.

I hope no one from hermitcraft who is on here (let alone scar holy shit) learns about this like they did with previous lighthearted tournaments. If you truly respect the creators you claim to be a fan of as people, you do not tell people to kill themselves over them. And finally, let Jellie fucking rest, guys. she had a long, good life. I hope op can come back and also avoids behaving like this if they ever wish to do so. I'm angrier at mcytblr, though.

Dear not so Anonymous Shithead...

Go kill yourself you weird, sick piece of shit.

Oh hold on you’re not even on anon so I can crosscheck what stories you read, I love doing that because 95% of hate on queer fics has the weirdest fucking straight kinks and--

--there it is! To absolutely nobody’s surprise!

Not someone with Harry Potter crossover harem fics and mother/son Naruto incest fics being up on a mighty high horse trying to suicide bait over a consensual queer fic I’m 😂 😂 😂

Stg you couldn’t even make that shit up anymore, anti logic is just through the roof huh. How is it always the ones with severe straight harem kinks that go around acting offended at queer poly ships existing. It is. Such a mystery. /s

Like, I’m not kinkshaming either harem fics or incest here; it’s just a hell of a hypocritical thing to do and get offended over other people’s fictional porn when you are banking on those, huh. And digging out a seven years old fic on FFNet, on top of that. Just stay in your lane, dude, it ain’t that hard. You read your porn, you let others enjoy their porn, without suicide baiting the authors for not writing your fetishes, mh?

[transmascissues]

next time someone tries to tell me people don’t demonize and act violently toward trans men and transmascs, i’m just going to make them read this reply i got to a positivity post that was specifically about trans manhood and transmasculinity. this is basically just every negative thing people say no one says about us rolled into one message that’s aimed directly at us.

and as if this isn’t enough on its own, their whole blog is full of this disgusting shit. it seems to be dedicated to it, actually. (fair warning, don’t look at the next two screenshots if you don’t want to see even more genuinely awful transphobia.)

you can say what you want about how they’re probably just a troll or baiting or doing this for attention but the fact remains that, regardless of their true intentions, these are real things that a real person is saying about trans men&mascs, publicly and proudly and to our faces because they want it to do damage.

i’ve dealt with people like this before, on a much closer level. when i was a teenager, i had a grown woman come into my dms just to send me very graphic and detailed instructions on how to kill myself. literally entire paragraphs with all of the steps she wanted me to take. before i blocked her, i told her she was lucky she sent it to me and not someone more vulnerable, because otherwise she might have real blood on her hands. she just sent the whole thing again.

we can argue all day about infantilization versus demonization, erasure versus hypervisibility, what counts as violence, what words we use to talk about our oppression, and so on. but the reality is, whether you believe people want us dead or not, they clearly do, and a lot of them really aren’t making any effort to hide it. at this point, if you can’t see it, it’s because you don’t care about our lives enough to look at the reality that’s right in front of your face.

before you do anything else, block this person. don’t engage with them directly, don’t give them the satisfaction of the attention they might be fishing for, just block them. but don’t forget that they exist either, especially if you’re not a trans man or transmasc yourself. don’t just block them and move on and forget that there are real people out there who will say these things about us, who genuinely enjoy the thought that their actions might have deadly consequences.

because these are the people you empower to come out of hiding and start being blatant about their hatred when you insist that no one wants us dead, when you openly mock us and demonize us and try to cast us out from the community that we were supposed to share. when even our own people decide we’re an acceptable target, these bigots throw a fucking party because you’ve just told them they can get away with murder as long as it’s our blood on their hands. this particular blog was started recently, and i guarantee it’s not a coincidence that they started it in the midst of a rise in online anti-transmasculinity.

it really is telling, how much hate a positivity post has incited. y’all can’t stand when we talk about the bad things that happen to us, but you hate our happiness even more.
