"All Slash Ships are pretty much Inception"

God damn it people-- granted I am not the biggest slash/yaoi fan anymore, but are we seriously having this discussion still? What year is it? 2018? Yeah, I thought so.

Why does anyone really care what people like/don't like? Oh well, at times Fandom!Secrets can be a real cesspit-- but there are some secrets that are actually pretty brilliant.

This is why I pretty much just try to find blogs and comms that only post official art, screenshots/gifs, and information but they are so incredibly hard to come by.

I think bonnefois hit it dead on with people wanting characters that they can just hollow out completely. But for some reason, people can't accept that other people are projecting on to those characters in different ways and leave it at that. I don't really know how we reached the "I don't agree with it/like it so it shouldn't exist period" point.

But honestly it feels like there's a lot of performance involved. It's to the point where I'm not always sure if people actually care about what they're arguing about or if they just want to latch on to discourse buzzwords to look Woke(TM).

I've projected myself upon a lot of characters, some of them I am definitely not proud of-- but I did see some of the 'I don't agree with it so it doesn't exist' to a smaller extent back in the early 2000's but nowhere near the amount that I am seeing now
