Honestly, I’m just gonna post this because I’m pretty sick of seeing the “FICTION AFFECTS REALITY INDEFINITELY” mentality crawling around. We had this moral panic with horror movies and video games... with women being allowed to read literature in the 17th century. Honestly, this is just the same shit, the EXACT same shit we’ve seen again and again and again and none of these anti people are self aware to realize that in the slightest. Not one of them has been able to prove that Harry Potter erotica or Sheith or whatever the hell the Undertale fandom is doing will perpetuate sexual abuse against children or normalize abusive relationships. And I mean hell, at LEAST with other widespread panic storms it was church officials and politicians going after movie studios and renowned authors and video game companies. THIS TIME it’s just some obnoxious, naive teens taking “baby’s first social justice movement” and some really immature shitty 18-23 year old “adults” who think their misinformed college campus brand psychology and personal feelings are enough to dictate all social norms TO A VERY SMALL POPULATION OF THE WHOLE WORLD: PEOPLE WHO HAVE TIME TO WRITE AND READ FANFICTION OR DRAW ART. Man if you really think a couple hundred thousand views on some fanfic from AO3 is enough to bring about societal moral decay, you... Man, (and I hate saying this patronizing dumb cliche but it fits here) go outside? 

Oh and if you’re trying to decipher the relevance of that video to this post: basically stop blaming people who create unconventional content for the actions of people who may or may not be inspired by or imitating such things because SHOCKER: A SURPRISING MAJORITY OF THE POPULATION CAN TELL FICTION APART FROM REALITY. 

you’ll be okay and you aren't a gross or terrible person for having feelings that you might have or might not have repressed since you've had them but please don’t forget to find educational resources and support outside of fiction and fandom. 

If you’re a minor and you think it’s okay to go out of your way to interact with marked NSFW spaces and the adults that occupy them or that it’s fine to have inappropriate contact with adults online or off, 

it isn't. You need to realize that no amount of feeling lonely or ignored or curious or like you’re invincible and the on exception to the rule of that not being okay is just teen bullshit that everyone goes through and will grow out of. Stop acting like you’re grown just because you can bypass childblocks and realize you’re putting yourself in danger by expecting the internet to babysit you.

(likewise)

If you’re an adult and you make problematic content about fictional characters or scenarios or dabble in unconventional kink zones with other like-minded legal consenting adult partners, be it as a hobby, as a job, to process trauma, or just for the love of being a weird ass freaky boi, 

you’re a cool dude and you deserve respect instead of being lambasted as a horrible person for doing someone that harms no one and disgusts a niche few.

If you’re an adult and you purposefully allows and condones minors in NSFW spaces, openly engage with them on NSFW matters publicly or privately, makes inappropriate comments/content about/of living people (minors or otherwise), use fandom spaces to prey on younger fans, or are one of/support and condone the actions of those horrible people who actually DO make fandom and online communities unsafe (i.e. a nazi who prods 14 year olds for nudes and draws porn of child actors like Shadman), 

then you should get off my post and fuck off forever because you’re the sole reason crusades against the evils of fandom across all platforms even exists and you need more than a couple iron wool brushes forcefully shoved up your ass.
