im sorry what now

Gotta say I’m pretty disappointed with how some people handled that kl@nce shipper in the sheith tag. You told them to go choke, insulted their writing, sent them romantic sheith fic knowing it made them uncomfortable, sent them nsfw headcanons while accusing them of being a minor (they aren’t luckily), and called them pretty horrible names.

This is NOT how we should conduct ourselves and I don’t know how many times it needs to be said that we as a fandom shouldn’t stoop to klanti/anti levels of harassment or harassment of any kind. I understand being frustrated by their obviously misinformed views but that person clearly needs mental help in some way. Ignoring them and blocking them is the best way to deal with these kinds of people because then we won’t see their bullshit in the tags anymore.

I’m sure there’re new people in the fandom who weren’t here to see the gross behavior directed towards sheith/shaladin shippers but no one is superior in fandom. We are all here to have fun and contribute the content we work hard on so other people can enjoy it too. People like that klanti are irrelevant and, while they did force themselves into our space purposefully involving themselves in something that supposedly triggered them, are not worth a second of our time and I highly encourage you all to ignore them. Ignore and block is something we should all repeat over and over again to remind ourselves that being involved in that kind of negative behavior is not beneficial in the long run or fun.

You know what is fun though? Reblogging and commenting on other people’s headcanons! Reblogging art and fic! Posting your own art and fic! Making AUs! Do things that make you smile and feel good.

Remember not to lose sight of what fandom is really about and as someone who has been in fandom for 15+ years I can say surrounding yourself with positivity is going to result in the best fandom experience.

kids shouldn’t have to use 3 different blockers, tumblr’s blacklist and mass blocking functions just to avoid seeing content of characters their age being raped

Fujoshis: reblog this if you care about male sexual abuse victims umu

Also fujoshis: make guys, especially gay guys getting harassed or sexually abused into a they’re gay xd joke

This isn’t about anything you reblogged/posted in particular but can I just say I absolutely hate the “parents should be responsible for what their kids see online” argument? like, excuse me, but not everyone has such mindful/caring/or even tech-savvy parents ok? goodness, it’s not that hard to be careful with what you post and say online in KID occupying spaces. -someone who grew up in the aforementioned scenarios

Mhm.

Like, in an ideal world all parents would be good and responsible and caring parents that are mindful of the content their children consume and help them steer clear of the bad stuff - but even in such a world (which we don’t!! live in now!!), that would in no way absolve anyone of the responsibility to like not be freaks around kids/in spaces where kids can access it.

It’s… geeze, it’s not that hard. I don’t know why people act like it is.
