I block, unfollow and filter liberally, because it is not on other people to cater my online space for me. If I see something I don't like, I remove it from my sight and move on.I take ZERO responsibility for other's online experience as this is my space. Learn to cater your own online space as it's only on you to do so.If you see anything you don't like that I post, just unfollow and/or block. People just looking for an argument or who are rude will be blocked and reported. Comments along the lines of looking for a fight or being rude will be deleted.---I am an Adult - Dec '93If you are not ok with this, and I follow you, please soft block, or block me to keep yourself comfortable.---I am Queer/Asexual and Indigenous(Australian).---Most of this blog will be SFW, but there still might be possible adult content on this blog, which will be tagged. Keep this in mind if you are a minor or do not wish to see such!---For certain sites I try to tag everything that I post with general, wide tags when they are useful. Use any content filter options to stop from seeing what you don't want to see.I do not tolerate hateful comments towards any animal, especially insects, spiders and other "creepy crawlies" and will block on sight. I understand phobias and squicks, but ALL ANIMALS are worthy of respect and life. This goes DOUBLE for anyone that makes comments on people's pets.---I'm not here for internet drama and discourse, don't drag me into it or tell me about it. I have more important things to worry about.---I support systems of all origins, including endogenic.
I also support physically identifying nonhumans and alterhumans, whatever their reason for identifying this way is.---I use the word Queer. If you do not believe in reclaiming slurs or you tag things as "q slur" just block me. I am also kink positive, pro-sex education, pro-sex worker, etc.---Thought crime AND thought heroism does not exist.---I am of the old internet mindset of "if you don't like it, don't look" and "don't go looking for things you know you don't like/you know will upset you."Only person to blame for interacting with things you don't like is yourself. Learn to remove yourself from the situation instead of placing all blame on other people who probably didn't even know you were there, or wanted you there, in the first place.---I'm old and tired, and kids these days would probably label me a "proshipper" as I believe there is way more nuance to this entire thing than simply the black and white mindset that the internet & fandom communities have shifted to over time.I do not condone any taboo or problematic content IRL. But it is not my place, or my right to tell others what they can and cannot do in fiction/fantasy.I do not condone harassment over fictional characters, ships, etc, and if you're one of the people who think that this is ok, or that someone should die because they think differently than you, block me.It's unrealistic to believe that anything created that holds taboo or problematic content means the one who created it condones it IRL. This falls along the same kind of mindset mostly conservative parents spat that "violent video games make people violent", which we all know is not true.
Censoring problematic content will not stop people from creating it. They will just create it where you cannot see it, which in turn could make it harder to find, and harder to stop when actual harm is dealt.Can fictional/fantasy content affect reality?
Sure! I will never say otherwise.
But to believe that it always does is, again, unrealistic, and assuming that most people cannot differentiate between the two. Fiction and fantasy were created for people to be able to entertain ourselves, and to explore topics that we never would, or were impossible, in the real world in the safety of our minds and spaces we created.The actions of those who use fictional content as a reason to do taboo and problematic things in real life is entirely on them, and they need to seek professional help for their paraphilias, or harmful actions.If something...
- happens between two(or more) consenting ADULTS
- makes someone happy
- does not harm themselves or anyone/anything IRL
...then what other people do is none of my business.
