Hello friend. I have ocd and my intrusive thoughts are incestual. Thanks to this fucking hellsite, I thought just having these thoughts made me doomed to be an abuser if I didn’t make a constant and active effort to stop them. I recently was told by my mother, who is not involved in fandom, that every human being has thoughts they don’t agree with and not everyone is a paramount of perfect morality inside their head. My point is, antis made me think I was a monster and they can suck my dick

shipping-isnt-morality:

god, I’m so sorry. Your mom is right, and I’m glad she supports you. We support you, too.

I wish wider fandom felt more safe for you, and I really hope you can find a community that is good for you.

shipping-isnt-morality:

“Abusers will see this content as support for their abuse!”

Also seen phrased as “even if you aren’t an abuser yourself, you’re contributing to the culture that normalizes it!”

Let’s unpack this, because it’s one of the more common anti arguments.

I have a feeling that this comes from the popular “rape jokes are bad because any rapists in the audience think you’re on their side” mentality. I have issues even with that, but if that argument is true, it still doesn’t correlate to shipping.

1. The size, context, and composition of the audience matter. Fandom is disproportionately vulnerable groups in our society, meaning that already, the vast majority of people both creating and consuming this content are more likely to be victims than perpetrators. The exact opposite is true for most mainstream comedy.

2. The social influence of fandom is minuscule compared to the influence of a single comedian. More people watch Comedy Central every day than have read the top 10 most popular avengers fanfics of all time. And it’s not just minuscule in terms of audience scale; media’s ability to influence us is directly tied to its quality.

3. Labeling fic as appropriately keeps it from validating abusers. The reason for this is pretty simple: abusers do not call themselves abusers. They’ll avoid that term at all costs, even after they’ve been convicted. Rape culture will not call itself rape culture. By acknowledging that this content is something to be warned for, by calling a spade a spade, any validation comes at the expense of admitting that they’re an abuser.

4. Shipping does not inherently minimize something the way that jokes do. Humor relies on a topic not being take too seriously; shipping, and fiction in general, is perfectly capable of taking on serious topics without minimizing them. And tying back to the previous point – explicit acknowledgement of the issues, or even implicit acknowledgement of the issues, nullify the biases any kind of media create. If you START OFF with, “What is depicted here is abuse”, it literally stops the process of normalization in its tracks.

5. No media, no matter how widespread, has the power to make people behave in antisocial ways except a few rare people who already had issues with that kind of behavior. Sure, movies inspired people to buy a certain kind of pet or visit a previously unknown location; those are all pro-social behaviors. Rashes of rapes, assaults, murders, domestic abuse cases in the wake of media portrayals – regardless of tone – are unheard of. Because social condemnation is stronger than fiction.

TL;DR A marginalized group writing a warned for story on an appropriate platform with a small audience cannot contribute to normalization. At all. Stop attacking fandom creators.

anyways why do you support pedophilia and abuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everyone here is so gross

shipping-isnt-morality:

oh god I’m done I’m fucking. I’m done I’m sick and I’m exhausted and I’m done

Nobody here supports real life pedophilia and abuse.

Antis support bullying creators for depicting it in fiction in ways they don’t approve of. They harbor bullies because they would have no power otherwise.

What are you – I assume an anti – missing in your life that you need so badly to feel righteous about the fiction you consume? Why do you need to feel you have power over people? Antis openly admit that they go after smaller creators because they know that smaller creators will “listen” to them – except that what they’re doing is intimidation and bullying, so what they really mean is that smaller creators are afraid of them.

And you know what? It worked. It fucking worked. Small creators are terrified. Multiple artists have been driven into depression and suicide attempts by harassment that came from antis. Creators who never hurt anyone had their careers ruined over false accusations of pedophilia over a cartoon drawing. Someone got fed needles. Three artists that I know of at conventions have had their merch and displays damaged by people calling them pedophiles or abuse apologists or whatthefuckever because of the completely safe for work art they were displaying.

You’re bullies. You’re fucking bullies and you need to feel powerful so you gang up on fandom creators, who are almost all already marginalized young people, so that you can feel like you’re doing something. But you’re not. You’re fucking not. You can tear down all the queer artists you want, it won’t make a single goddamn bit of difference. YOU ARE NOT HELPING ANYONE.

You’re not. Helping. Anyone.

But you did it, I guess. Artists are scared. People are scared. Small, queer creators are more scared to release content now than they were 5 years ago, because their own community will almost certainly tear them apart like wild dogs.

Great job. Do you feel powerful now?

The funamusea fandom need to see @shipping-isnt-morality blog riGHT NOW.

gelatinadepina:

Sometimes I really wonder what you all, supposed “criticism” blogs, are thinking when doing your “critics” (that at this point just looks like a bunch of you all copying and pasting the same stuff again – some of you didn’t even look at funamusea updates and don’t even know what are they talking- in what looks to be a competition over who is the most salty of you all -Like, yeah We all know what you’re talking, dsp style, dsp repeating stuff, say something new-) And that’s how it all started.

I can’t even believe that I have to tell you all that Dsp is a foreign artist, and sure that doesn’t mean they’re free of criticism but guess what, with being foreign comes something curious you all seem to forgot:

Dsp level at english is poor to pity level.

Dsp doesn’t understand a single thing you’re writing and won’t bother to even try between their constant time at either in a hospital, drawing watgbs manga, living life or watching Godzilla and crying about it.

You all can write your critics all you want, but there’s no point in making them if the artist doesn’t even know about it, about what you see they can improve in their drawing or their content (If that’s what you want that’s it, improvement)

Now, even, in the remote possibility that Dsp was able to understand what you’re writing, then comes another point:

We are in a platform that Dsp doesn’t care about.

Given their story with Tumblr, Dsp most probably have the site blocked, they can’t see your posts, can’t see your opinion or even have the chance to care about it because they don’t even know it exist in the first place.

…If you really wanted a change, you can always mail them in japanese.

But no, you’re writing it in english, in a platform they don’t even look to. And it makes your criticism loss it’s purpose. Now is just a complaint worth coming from a 5 years old spoiled brat about a thing no one around in the tag can control.

And even if you’re venting, the main tag is not your vent blog, be polite with the others, people is searching the tag to share with other fans about the things they still like, not see your 456 complaints and crying.

And now, I have to recognize you all guys, for real. Because you have stayed here even though you hate everything Dsp makes, exposing yourself regularly to a thing that makes you sick and/or bored to the point you have to make a list and scream it to this dying fandom. (Some of you even for more than 5 years holy Jesus, truly hate shrines)…Instead of like…you know…

…Leaving?

You can always stop consuming the content (If you are so done with it like you claim), get away, look for something else that fills your standards and brings you joy.

But You’re still here, a truly devote to Dsp. Ironic that at the end of the day, you’re the most loyal fans of us all.

What kind of life (or lack of one) you have for real. I wish I had that free time to be worrying about what Dsp draws or don’t draw or decide to do or not in their free time.

That or you some kind of fan, one that bring themselves pain by constantly exposing willing to content they hate. Or just a hater that hides under the “criticism blog” shield to don’t show your true colors.

Do yourself a favor and leave, because you constantly exposing to something you hate certainly is not healthy (for those of you who claim about toxicity in the content).

You’re tired of Dsp stuff, and ironically people is also tired of you.

THIS.

xbluebanshee:

I really hate the Funamusea’s fandom here in Tumblr xD EVERYTIME you search the tag there’s people crying or needing to repeat constantly how much they hate X character or X ships and how sick we are for liking it.

Lmao let people be, is ok to have your own tastes but stop trying to make others feel bad.

Believe me, people who likes Satanivlis, Robco and similars, we KNOW that’s abusive, really, is easy to see, but there’s a lot of people who likes abusive/toxic FICTIONAL relationship 😉 zero relation with real life tastes, grow up.
