If You Can Watch Game Of Thrones And Know Murder, Incest And Rape Are Wrong And Not Become A Murderer,

If you can watch Game of Thrones and know murder, incest and rape are wrong and not become a murderer, sister-fucker or rapist, then you understand proshipping.

If you can watch true crime TV and not actively support the criminals they portray, you understand proshipping.

If you can create gory art and not be aroused by it and understand its an aesthetic or story-telling piece, you understand proshipping. Even if you are aroused by it, but you don't have the urge to go out and gut someone, you understand proshipping.

It is, genuinely, that simple. Creative perspective does not equate to or directly reflect moral perspective or intent.

If you can go to the movies or sit at home on Netflix or read books or consume quite literally anything that depicts topics you would revolt against in a fandom capacity, I'm sorry, but you understand and even partake in one of the core values of proshipping.

The creation and consumption of something are not individually exempt from the notion of it being morally 'correct' to do so. You cannot condemn the creation of something in a fandom capacity then continue to consume it in a 'reality' capacity.

They are the same.

Hey, PSA:

On your phone, go to Settings> Security and Privacy> Privacy> Other Privacy Settings> Ads> Delete Advertising ID

Then go back to Other Privacy Settings> Google location history> Turn off Location History &/or Turn-on Auto-Delete (you can set a time period of how long to keep it)

Then, staying on Other Privacy Settings, go to ’+ See all activity controls’> Web & App activity> Turn off (you can also turn-on Auto-Delete for here too) Then Scroll down to Personalized ads> My Ad Center> Turn Off Personalized Ads.

Google has no business knowing/storing everything you do online, and knowing/storing where you go everyday. Turn it off.

These instructions are for an Android phone, IOS might be different. If you have IOS or another operating system feel free to add on with your own map to where they’ve buried these settings in your phone to help others.

Daily reminder that 'they're hot' and 'they'd be hot together' are perfectly valid, complete reasons to ship two characters and you do not need a checklist of stipulations and statements in order to justify why you're shipping two characters.

It literally doesn't matter who they are or what relationship they have. You can like them just because you find them attractive. Just like 'no' is a full sentence, 'they're hot' is a full sentence. That's the beauty of fiction; by its own nature it doesn't have to subscribe to the intricacies of reality.

This is a PSA that you cannot promote blocking people or announce whenever you block someone because they're ~wrong~ then turn around and mock or harass people because, shocker, they blocked you.

If you're an anti, you can't go after proshippers for blocking you and curating their own space the way you do.

If you're into a certain character or ship, you can't mock the people who aren't who block you so they don't have to see your content and so you can't see theirs to attack it.

Its pathetic. Its hypocritical. Its just a blatant announcement of the fact that you think you have the inherent right to target people and engage with someone against their wishes based on your personal views. If someone did that to you you'd be the first to cry foul and start a witch hunt.

Let. People. Curate. Their. Own. Online. Spaces.

With or without you.

Blocking and the right to block and not see content or engage with someone goes both ways.

Introduction

Hello, and welcome to my slice of the internet where I've chosen to spend my downtime arguing the intricacies of reality, fiction and humanity.

My name is Sephiroth. I can be referred to as he, she or they, and I am over the age of 18. I have been active in fandom spaces for over a decade.

The aim of this blog is not to incite arguments, witch hunts or bullying, and to the best of my capability I will mitigate these where possible, although I absolutely Do Not subscribe to the notion of 'don't name and shame.' The purpose of this blog is to hopefully facilitate a more greyscale and critical-thought view on how reality, fiction and fandom spaces are intertwined, connect, affect each other and influence each other.

The blog and its posts also hope to facilitate collected, open-minded discussions between opposing or conflicting views. As one such example, 'antis' and 'proshippers.' The ultimate goal is allow education, open-minded discussions about fandom, fiction and reality to become a standard commonplace as opposed to targeted harassment, uneducated misinformation, threats, ect.
