Ahh @parasect my friend! You clearly haven’t seen my post discussing how calling pro-shippers pedophiles is just a strawman argument!
See, I’ll explain it to you: my post was pointing out the hypocrisy of anti-shippers. It showed a selection of works in media which broke the ridiculous rules you fellows claim to live by, and said that if you really believed that “problematic” fiction, even properly labelled as such, was truly something that shouldn’t exist, you would be campaigning for these works to be banned.
And what was your witty response to my argument? “Shut up, pedophile”.
Now, let’s not go into the fact that pedophiles should all go to a hell I don’t believe in, and how fucking disgusting it is that you claim to be crusading against pedophiles when all you’re doing is attacking people who *squints at paper* don’t believe in the censorship of fiction.
The “shut up you’re a pedophile” argument allows for two things. First, you get to start off the conversation with a strawman argument. You get to say “ha! Checkmate” without touching a board. You get to lord over with your supposed moral superiority, and you scare other, less informed observers into taking your side. Because no one sides with a pedophile.
Then the argument turns into the argument you want it to be because instead of talking about the logical argument I made, I now have to say I’m not a pedophile, and you get to dig in. “Of course you’re a pedophile – you support kiddie porn!” You spit back – another straw man argument, because now I have to explain that while I don’t like under-age fic, it is not in fact, kiddie porn.
What does that have to do with my original post? What does that have to do with your hypocritical crusade against mostly-female or queer fic writers creating fic you don’t like? What has this got to do with anything?
Because no matter how good and righteous it makes you feel to call me one, I am not a pedophile. It’s a simple fact. I have been openly and vocally against paedophilia multiple times on this blog.
You’re a disgusting, hypocritical, self-serving, morally righteous, internet pig. You don’t actually give a shit about the real world impact of fiction because otherwise you would be campaigning to get censorship laws changed, you would be campaigning to ban the works of fiction I mentioned. You just have a knee jerk reaction to things you dislike on the internet, and instead of just avoiding it, you decide that you, the morally superior conservative-minded “liberal” need to clap back and bully others for your own pleasure.
If you’re still confused, look up the alt-right handbook playlist on YouTube. You’ll find some scary similarities between your tactics and those of the alt-right.
bitch WHERE. they fucking STALKED THEM and threatened contacting their
fucking PARENTS (god knows what kind of parents they might have???) and
get them expelled from school?? this couldve lead to them being brutally
beaten or forced into isolation by their parents. just FYI abusive people like you exist and nobody is safe from them. contacting someones family is NEVER okay unless you know them personally and have their consent.
shut the fuck up, you
dont give a rats ass about anyones safety, least of all minors
That is totally fair and a very good instinct of yours.
Parasect is a user that comes into the random posts of proshippers, often post about fanworks rather than discourse, and makes violent and hostile threats against them.
I will dig up some receipts for you (they are upsetting) or if anyone reading would like to chime in please do.
Aww thank you so much!! That’s always so nice to hear! 😀
When you start a proship focused blog:
Follow proship accounts that you like. (If you want to you can follow people we reblog from or check the #proship tag).
Decide if you want to tackle discourse on your blog, or if you just want to vibe with proshippers and share fan content.
If you want to avoid discourse, I recommend preemptively blocking every anti you can find. Start with @/parasect. In fact block parasect even if you’re going to do discourse.
Follow proship tags like #proship #comship “#anti censorship” etc.
Don’t be afraid to reblog posts with your own additions, send asks off anon, comment on posts, and tag your own relevant posts as proship. The portion community welcomes and thrives on genuinely interacting with each other.
Buuut… Not everyone gets along. If there’s a proship blog that runs you the wrong way or you don’t want to see posts from, don’t be afraid to block them!
