Using An Anti-shipper's Logic Against Them

The fact that kids nowadays want ao3 to be censored— guys. Guys. Where is your sense of adventure? When I was 12, and homeschooled, and had unlimited internet access on my second hand laptop, all I felt upon discovering ao3 was unmitigated joy. A whole platform where people can be fucking weird and post toe-curling novel-length diatribes about ANYTHING. How beautiful is that?

And then you, the reader, can just jump in and post your own weird shit? And people might comment just to say “nice job!” Or “where the fuck is the next chapter” on your 20k coffee shop FNAF AU? Bro. Them’s the little things that make the internet worth anything.

Ao3 is so beautiful. I love scrolling past indescribably disturbing descriptions. I love knowing they have a place to be posted. I love knowing that, should I feel the urge to indulge, I can do so with no repercussions.

Mi familia. Mis amigos. Por favor. Take a step back and be grateful that not every facet of creativity has been locked behind an algorithm.

Just saw a tiktok of someone seething and mad that people spread "misinformation" that proshipping is just "don't like don't read".

Went on to say proshippers are all pedophiles and groomers, that justify CSEM.

How are you going to go on a full rant about misinformation and doing research to confirm somethings meaning only to then spread misinformation yourself.

"nobody will like you if you talk about proshipping/problematic stuff IRL" I once had a very loud conversation about proshipping with an IRL friend in a very public place and nobody gave a shit.

However on the internet, people I once called my friends tried to doxx me, accused me of being a pedophile, etcetc

Antis are more chronically online than proshippers ever will be. Just saying.

"ermmm... being a proshipper is illegal!" they say as they show you the law against the possession child sexual abuse material (extra) Literally not all proshippers ship child x adult (or whatever else) since that's a darkship. And to add onto that, telling people to kill themselves or hurt themselves or threatening to rape them, hurt them, kill them, or hoping any of that upon them is a crime. And when you bring up digital footprint, don't you think future jobs, colleges, etc. will pay more attention to threats rather than some ship?

any of yall ever notice that antis cannot look at normal ass nonsexual artwork without immediately sexualizing it?

i remember once i saw something on tiktok. it was artwork of a father kind of spinning around playfully with his toddler/baby daughter. the daughter had blush on her face, you know, for shading and to show that she's alive.

and i remember antis calling it weird, sexual, predatory, etc. and somehow WE are the creeps..?? nuh uh. that is weirdo behavior.

my ass when I accepted that I was proship

everytime someone asks in a dw tiktok comment section if they can ship certain ship a cheesebird loses its wings. yes you can. do whatever you want why are you asking for permission WHAT???. WHAT HAPPENED TO FUN ???

"i'm tired of seeing-" use your filters.

"but there was an icky ship-!" use your filters.

"i don't like that tag-" use your filters.

don't like what you're seeing? use. your. filters.
