A little rant about darkshippers

People should stop giving fucks about what other people ship. Why bash someone for liking incest / any darkships? As long as they’re not trying to get you into it or actively doing it in real life, who cares? Yeah, it’s weird (coming from a darkshipper), but why waste your words complaining about them? Maybe go outside and touch some grass. Grab some flowers and make a nice bouquet for someone. Contribute to the world instead of sitting in your room making others feel like shit for liking what they like.

Ehh i kinda have mixed feelings

like i'm against shipping weird pedo stuff, zoophile stuff and the like. sure there were some deranged people back then who were into that sort of stuff back then, but now that the internet hosts all SORTS of shit like that, I feel like more and more people can just easily fall into weird pipelines going to more and more extreme stuff until they actually commit a crime.

but as for why I said I had "mixed feelings"
i've genuinely for the longest time never understood why incest is seen as weird (specifically sibling x sibling)
like as long as there's no crazy age gaps, or manipulation involved. is there really that much problem besides birth defects and ig weird looks from people? There's boundaries for a reason, if siblings truly love each other, respect each other's boundaries, and don't have a weird power dynamic, is there really much difference than any other normal relationship?

Maybe i got a different take but lowkey i think darkshippers should touch grass. I mean i get kinks and fetishes thats different. incest, big age gaps/pedo shit, or even abusive or zoophilic things should not and never be something that is normalized. There is a reason why people dont like darkshipping, because its morally wrong. Just cuz its fictional doesnt change the fact that these dynamics are an issue in society as it is, normalizing it will only make people be worse.

These are still not a choice though! Just like you can't control having or not having a kink or a fetish, you can't control having or not having a paraphilia. It's way better for people with these darker attractions with fiction than doing anything irl imo /neu /info

Additionally, the "goal" of darkshipping isn't the normalisation of these dynamics, just like someone reading the big H man's book doesn't mean they want to normalise his ideas, even if they find it interesting to read.

Im not saying that ur bad cuz u cant control it. Im saying its bad that u post it online attempting to normalize these things. To me, thats how it comes off as a VICTIM to these things. I think u just need help i dont rlly know what to say

by Erin; ; Report

YES EXACTLY ERIN thats what these people dont get! im 100% kink positive but theres a time and place! talking about how hot you find incest or a pedophilic ship or whatever on a website full of children or just the general population for that matter is not that time, it is not that place! keep it to bdsm and kink centered forums/groups/clubs! what about that is so hard to understand, and why do "darkshippers" always play victim when normal ass people dont want to have to see that stuff in their day-to-day? christ

You're right op! In the end, whether we like it or not, censoring this Will lead to more. Fandom history has proven that gay ships WILL get dumped in the "bad" category and get deleted as well. Fanfiction.net was a prime example of that. Plus, taboo fiction helps some victims cope. (my credentials? I study psychology and have taken an interest in how fiction affects people).

Can you imagine banning H man's book? No, because it's needed to not repeat that. Same thing. If we start on some topics, we'll end up scraping historic records because they "contain dark topics". It's a slippery slope.

I am terribly sorry you got such mean comments that refuse to see things differently and would rather fight for the right of pixels and words than the rights of people. I hope you're okay and have a good day <3

Also, the fact I literally got blocked from saying that man's name.. Yikes. Yes he is bad, but if we can't talk about it (in a broader sense, like imagine if every place was like this?) we can't remember, and if we can't remember we can't prevent it from happening again.

because incest is nasty and traumatizing and you can keep that shit to yourself if you get off on it. like im not gonna harass anyone about it because that's stupid but if you seriously have to say "who cares if i not only jerk off to incest but talk about it publicly where victims can see it?" you have to be dense. theres a reason its taboo and why sensible people arent open about it lol

Maybe you could just block them instead of harassing people over fiction?
If people like you spent as much energy battling these things in real life (incest, pedophilia, etc) as you do in fiction, there'd be a lot less real life incidents.

by Kai The Foley; ; Report

did you read my full reply where i literally said i dont harass people? or did you just react without thinking because you saw an opinion you disagree with off the bat?

by ♡ jovi 🐹; ; Report

Oh I did read it! But just saying "I don't harass people" doesn't men you actually don't, and considering how you worded things, I'm not inclined to believe that statement.
Don't take offend if I stop responding, but tbh I have better things to put my energy into than these types of conversations. I just commented the first time because I felt it was a pity that the only comment on this post was from someone completely missing the point.

by Kai The Foley; ; Report

so your reading comprehension skills are in the negatives. got it

by ♡ jovi 🐹; ; Report

... Like THAT isn't harrassment lol

by Kai The Foley; ; Report

it isnt? im just saying clearly you cant read if you think my comment was that dumb

by ♡ jovi 🐹; ; Report

like go ahead and report my comment for harassment and see where it gets you. because that was NOT harassment, bud. methinks youre just a little sensitive

by ♡ jovi 🐹; ; Report

Idgaf anymore, i think they mad cuz u called them out

by Erin; ; Report

1. Insulting people's skills just because they disagree with you is just ableist, so...
2. I came here to try to educate and bring another perspective, but I see you aren't open to actual discussion and just want to dogpile on people, so I stopped putting effort in trying to make myself understood.
Have the day you deserve /g
