you have got to stop equating someones morals to what fiction they like and i especially mean when someone likes a media with a shitty creator. someone liking a show does not automatically mean they have the exact same morals and beliefs that the shows creator does. it is one thing to actively support a creator (by interacting with them directly or giving them money) but it is something entirely different to just watch a show that happens to be made by a bad person. if you can recognize that someone reading a book with dark themes doesn’t mean they support crimes or bad things happening in real life then you need to be able to hold those same beliefs about people who like media that was made by a bad person.

antis screaming "PDF!!!!" at every proshipper is the equivalent of boomers in the 80s screaming "SATAN WORSHIPER" at everyone

i understand that it's unreasonable to expect a band on world tour to play in every country in the world but i do think they should only be allowed to call it a world tour if they play in every continent. we need to make it embarrassing to say world tour and then not even step foot in africa

There's nothing wrong with sysmates presenting symptoms of a disorder or a disability that other sysmates don't present. These experiences are real and valid. It's okay for a sysmate to have symptoms of a disorder or a disability that the rest of sysmates don't have.
