What she says: I hate antis
What she really means: I don’t mind people disliking a ship for their own reason but the anti-shipping movement is driven by hate and bandwagon bullying to police what people are “allowed” to enjoy. They use fundamentally abusive and manipulative tactics on real people in the name of protecting survivors from speculative things in fiction. Antis want to act morally superior over ship wars and claim that to ship something problematic you must be a survivor. By doing this antis force survivors who may be uncomfortable with coming out with their status to out themselves and then hold them to impossible standards. Except when it does come to survivors who ship anti-deemed problematic things we are attacked, harassed, and then pushed under the bus anyway. Antis trivialize terms such as abuse, rape, and pedophilia by using them so often and out of place against a group made up of many survivors and minors– the people they claim to be protecting. They have bullied and suicide baited artists and other content creators they dislike in the name of “policing the bad ships uwu.” All antis are at fault for this, even if an anti claims not to send hate themselves they are still influencing this bad behavior because they are part of this hate group. The entire anti-shipper movement is a toxic cesspool that makes me feel sick.
“let people do what they want! Let people ship kids with their parents/ adults, rape victims/ abuse victims with their abusers/rapists! Let people sexualize the fuck outta kids!! Who the fuck cares if it’s damaging at all?! As long as they’re happy that’s all that matters!!! :D :D :D”
Fuck you and fuck whomever fucking thinks any of that is okay. Also a lot of antis are fucking abuse survivors themselves. Using other survivors as a fucking shield makes you pieces of shit.
I mean I didn’t say any of that anywhere, this reply is super aggressive and exactly what I mean with the post lol
I’m a survivor too and I don’t appreciate you also using me as a shield to justify harassing people. I don’t support sexualizing minors or shipping kids with their parents??? That’s gross and a red herring. My point is that I prioritize real people over fictional characters, it’s good to be critical of the media you consume, but anti culture is like a mob that only makes things worse.
I’m not using you as a shield. I’m literally pointing out that antis are survivors as well.
This post literally reads like you’re cool with people who do that. Then go all ‘it fiction! It never affects reality or anything!! :D :D :D’.
I’m aware of that
My post doesn’t say anything about fiction affecting reality, it’s literally talking about the behavior of antis which does affect reality. Don’t lump me in with other things you’ve seen, lol. It’s a complicated topic, not a black or white viewpoint where everyone thinks the same.
