dont you think it's weird that every kid you've ever met has a gripe or two or three with their parents? that that's just a a joke, an inconsequential fact of life? don't you think it's unfair that people who treat children like real human beings are the outlier? don't you think it's odd that the thought that people don't deserve respect until they turn 18 is such a common point of view? don't you think it's odd that so many children these days and forever are raising themselves? don't you feel like it's unfair that children are given the responsibilities of growing up and having to do tasks and errands for the family that brought them into this world without any of the freedoms? that the first gift they get upon growing up and that oh-so-sweet "freedom" they were promised for 19 years is typically a mountain of debt? don't you see the pattern over the past hundred years that children are shoved out of any safe space they have, out of parks and roads, out of diners, out of malls, out of the internet? they're trapped in an unsafe world and almost never taught what to do by their parents until their parents are frustrated that they don't know what to do? don't you ever feel like every other parent is abusing their children? so many minors you know despise their parents? everything children, especially young ones say is treated as a joke and nothing more? don't you hate the saying "children should be seen and not heard?' don't you hate that children are time and time again hurt & betrayed by parents, by teachers, by adults, by the entire system, and just expected to take it every time? don't you hate that they're seen as property, as extensions of a parent, as a burden to a father and a weapon against a mother? don't you see adults who both hold their age and their maturity over children's heads and tell them that adulthood is actually miserable, that they're jealous of 'irresponsible' children, that this torture is the best they're ever gonna get? don't you know that so many people hate and hated what were supposed to be the 'best years of your life'? in a society that punishes any outcast and rewards cruel hierarchies, it's every man for himself and you're either abused into being a perfect child and neglected or abused for not being perfect and hounded. don't you know how frustrating it is, to be pushed aside and voice spoken over even where you're the target and the blame and the laughingstock, being told "you don't know better" when you want a freedom but being told "you should have known better" when you make a mistake because you are a child?

don't you feel bad?

"fiction does not actively harm real people and so you should explore it however you like. harmlessly exploring topics that would be much more sensitive in real life is valid and you should not face harassment over it."

and then immediately

"proshippers & profic this isn't for you, get off my page - I think you're disgusting and invalid."

is a phenomenon that really needs to be studied. there are a lot of people that have bastardized the fandom terms pro- and anti- to be "incest and major/minor fetishization ew!!!" vs "good and pure morally correct shipping! the default state to be in a fandom!" and not "i do not care how people other than me explore fiction" vs "i care how people other than me explore fiction".
