I need some help with a moral dilemma!

A person I follow reblogged a post about how you should respect other's kinks, ships and such things, which I agreed with, but immediately I thought "what about proshipping and pedo stuff?". And in the post the op brought up the "What about ____?" and wrote that if you thought that something horrible couldn't possibly be included in this, it was! They also said the of you didn't like something you should block the tag and not interact with it, which I also agree with.

I went down to the comments and saw how the op (not the reblogger) defended pedo ships and I got really uncomfortable, I wondered if the reblogger also agreed with that.

I personally interact with some yandere content cus I think it's interesting to read and fantasies about but I'd never accept it or like it if it happened to me. In that way I could somewhat understand where the op came from, but pedo ships? Really? I can't in anyway defend it, even when fictional if it isn't shown in a negative light.

I personally am against it because I've heard and seen how people have become desensitized to proshipping to the point that they think it's okay to act out those things irl, I've fallen into that category myself when I was younger, unlimited access to the internet yk. You could say the same thing about yandere but I fell like pedo and incest ships are so morally wrong that you just can't write about it like that.

Can someone give me their opinion on this? Did I misunderstand the point? Should I unfollow the reblogger?

Pls help!

//little side post while i get replies done in the middle of doing Arkham Origins, but

something i think i never really realized i loved so much about Riddler and the dynamic he brings is just how much his obsession to prove himself better brings about his downfall. there are many things that can be said about Edward Nygma, but he is ABSOLUTELY one hundred percent as smart as he claims to be. He is an absolute genius and that's not even up for debate.

the horrible part is that Eddie cannot perceive a world where there is anything beyond intellect - he is the biggest believer in brains over brawn, without realizing what that entails. he takes it to an extreme, because all his life he has felt belittled, especially by his father. being a genius isn't good enough. he has to be the best. and you know what? so does Bruce.

Bruce doesn't ever truly try to tell Eddie that what he's doing is stupid, or that he's good enough and that he respects him, because that may just be too easy. Bruce has an addiction to his work, and even if he will never admit it, I firmly believe there's a large part of Bruce that LOVES Eddie's riddles and games. For Bruce, they really ARE the "amusing diversion" that Eddie claims they are.

The biggest difference, however, is that while Bruce indulges in his pride, he has worked hard to hone not only his mind but his body as well. he doesn't suffer the same need to participate in these intellectual contests as Eddie does, though he does enjoy them. It's the difference between knowing when to stop, versus having it define your life.

Another tragedy is Edward's need. It's a psychological compulsion to KNOW, not just to be better. One of the questions he asks most is "how did you do it". And then his obsession over the "how", over how somebody could possibly outsmart him, drives him mad.

he will scream out that none of this was how he planned. he will insist that the batman cheated, that there's no way he could have done it. he will sob and screech to the high heavens and to everyone in arkham, asking how the bat could have possibly escaped his traps.

and he keeps going. because he has nothing else.

ultimately eddie is one of the most tragic figures in my honest opinion. also, most of my knowledge of him admittedly comes from the arkham games, the animated series (specifically "Riddler's Reform), and Matt Reeve's The Batman, so i apologize to my beloved eddie specialists ( @riddlethat and @brokentoys ) if this comes off as weird.

idk i just. really like him as a character.

jim gordon from gotham 2014 is the only character I’ve ever wanted to study like a bug because he’s genuinely such an unconventional main character. the writers were posed with the question “what kind of person would survive decades on a corrupt police force in the most dangerous city in the world?” and were left with; the man has no social skills and will openly insult anyone in proximity. sarcastic and mean but still manages to b charming. deserves to be punches in the face at least once a day. tells the mayor to kiss his ass. will piss off every person in the police force, every major crime boss, and every person in govt and is Shocked whenever the consequences of his own actions come back to bite him. believes in following the rules and yet follows no rules except his own. has no regard for his own safety. when told he’s on a suicide mission his response was, in an annoyed voice “so what?” he almost died every single episode but he survives from a mix of stubbornness and sheer luck. “sex is great and all but have you ever solved a crime”. goes on a date and brings case files. might be more unhinged than the rogues. a 13 year old billionaire who builds bombs w his butler in his spare time thinks he’s neat. hurts him to smile. is sometimes in a silly goofy mood and will take his tie off. the answer is he shouldn’t have survived decades on a corrupt police force in a dangerous city (BUT my hc is psychic told him the exact day he was going to die so he knows he can survive everything else)

I know I'm not that well known and I rarely post but as it soon is pride mouth I wanted to share a recent discovery I had with my gender. I am genderfluid and will from now on go by any and all pronouns. I haven't told anyone this yet so why not share it with Tumblr?!
