I Hate It When Some Anti's Preech About "listen To Poc Voices" Yet Get Mad And Call The Same Poc's Racial

I hate it when some anti's preech about "listen to poc voices" yet get mad and call the same poc's racial slurs when they do something they deem as "irredeemable". Heck even Xenophobic too when ppl are callingout artists, almost 50% they'll say stuff like "Oh ofc its a _____ "

I don't strictly think that racism is solely an anti pitfall or mindset. I know plenty of people who identify as proship who have the same "listen to X!" battle march until X are no longer in harmony with their thoughts and opinions.

Racism, in my opinion, should never be classed as something that is simply 'fandom.' Racism is down to the individuals. And those individuals are everywhere. Antis just happen to correlate their racism with their other personal beliefs and values.

That said, you can always report racism you see on online platforms. While it may never truly silence those people, its certainly a pleasantly annoying inconvenience to them to experience chat bans or having their accounts removed. Even however temporarily; its one less racist voice in the sandbox.

so THAT'S why i keep seeing stolen artwork/AI generated artwork in character tags when someone's pushing their wattpad fic. jesus christ that explains everything. you're so right.

I highly recommend leaving a comment on the work letting the author (and readers) know the artwork isn't free for creative use and also doing a reverse search to try to track down the original artist.

I've been thinking of creating some comment/message templates for easy copy-pasting to save people the effort of tying it out.

Wattpad is so sly though, to protect itself because it earns money by selling your content it has limited actual reports to copyright owner only, which means you actually have to track down the artist and help them file a report in order to get stolen fanart removed.

I am actually begging some people to just let some spaces exist untouched by real-world issues and horrors.

Like I've lost count of the amount of times peaceful game or fandom servers have been ruined by people stampeding in with political rants, bitching about world issues, demanding internal activism, demanding vent channels so they can whine about their shitty parents, ect.

Like. Respectfully. Not every single space has to be inclusive of and welcoming of outside topics. The real world sucks. We don't needed to be reminded of that absolutely everywhere.

Having been unwillingly exposed to it, it looks like the BTS fandom is single-handedly supporting the AI dudebros claiming its an in-demand market.

um, silly qiestion but is there any other way to reverse search images other than using google lens?

You can use websites like TinEye or DNSChecker, which will scour the internet for any instance of an image being uploaded and provide them in chronological order.

However, with these kinds of websites, please read the usage terms carefully. Some websites that offer services like this are very predatory and will hide in their usage terms that by 'uploading' an image to their site you are granting them permission to use it in varying ways.

Its also not as streamlined or time efficient, but often I've managed to find images by searching relevant key terms of descriptors into Google Images. E.g; "Henry Cavill Pink Fanart."
