There is no censorship, there is the Force

Zho, she/her Proshipping and Jedi positivity blog

[proship-jedi]

Pinned Post!

Hello galaxy! Call me Zho, and this is my blog for proshipping reblogs and original posts, as well as jedi positivity! 

Before you tell me to kill myself, here’s some info that antis won’t read!

-censorship is never the answer, and Ao3′s approach for what they allow should be the standard -ship and let ship, no matter what. Yes, even whatever you’re thinking of right now -I use the block button liberally, as should you -exclusionists are no better than antishippers, in my eyes. You are not welcome in this radical inclusionist space -I am in the United States, so if I ever discuss legality, this is what I mean -I am a harm reductionist. If something is not causing harm, there is no reason to persecute it -real people over imaginary characters, every single time

I’m an adult, and I use she/her pronouns!

May the Force be with you

~Zho

Gotta tell you guys something wild in the Chinese fan sphere

So some fanartist drew a “sexy” (read: booby) version of a (cartoon) character who is traditionally very non-sexualised. Fans of the character got mad about it because it’s kind of groundbreaking how that character is written and portrayed and this art totally ignores the entire point of the character. They demanded the art be deleted. In response to that other people said, well what the fanartist did may be distateful but they have every right to draw what they’re into. The two sides fight for days and each starts a harassment campaign and even report their “opponents’” accounts.

So far so typical. But things eventually come to a head and they decide that this will be settled by votes - not through a poll. Through donations to a children’s education charity via each side’s portal. Whoever can get the highest amount of donation wins.

And that is how this charity received over 1 million in donations in three days lol. Oh btw the “freedom of expression” side won by a landslide (960k to 40k)

[tlbodine]

From now on this is how all petty fandom disputes should be settled.

always funny to remember darth vader is anakin skywalker. the adrenaline junkie chucklefuck who used to dive head first out of speeders and built a pod racer in his yard when he was like six is now upper-middle management for the evil empire. half of his appearances in the original trilogy are Meetings. vader spends like 80% of his time dealing with bureaucratic bullshit. status updates. team meetings. holo-Zooms. budget rundowns. anakin betrayed the jedi and caused the fall of the republic and his punishment is being CC'd on every email forever. and you know what. he would hate that. the punishment fits the criminal

[cheesenames]

he's so funny

[paulinagilart]

palpatine, giggling to himself: sheevs you sly dog you’ve done it again

[howdidthisevenhappenanyway]

I think every night palps has an hour where he seals himself up in a soundproof room and thinks of all the games he played that day, and laughs and laughs and kicks his feet

There’s an episode of Sesame Street (on Netflix! you can watch it easily!) where Elmo attends a toy-swap, where you offer up old toys you don’t play with anymore and receive someone else’s toys that are new to you. Cute!

But Elmo, after cheerfully surrendering his old toys, sees that the children who swapped toys with him are playing with his toys “wrong”! They’re imagining entirely different make believe scenarios! They’re pretending the football is a dinosaur egg instead of a rocket ship! Aaahhhhh!!!! And this is so distressing to poor Elmo that he does the unthinkable: He does swapsies-backsies and takes all his toys back!

This being Sesame Street, he learns that you can’t control how other people play pretend, but you can join in if you want to! And if you don’t want to, that’s ok, you can just play pretend your own way by yourself or with someone else who wants to play that way too. You can still be friends with people who play pretend differently than you (and aren’t being mean/harmful/etc, do not bad-faith-read this 🤨).

Anyway this is a post about fandom.

"Toxic yaoi" "cannibalism as eroticism" "be gay do crimes" internet users when the morally questionable fictional relationship involves incest:

[asexualmaul]

Obi-Wan: I’d take a blaster bolt for you ❤️

Cody: You’re probably the reason someone is shooting at us in the first place

[waldeinsamkeit-feeling]

[assiraphales]

the irony in how much obi wan hated politicians only for his number one most hated in the senate to be a sith lord...... and he can’t even go “I told u so” to anyone bc anakins on the dark side and all the jedi are dead

[assiraphales]

obi wan, standing in front of the force ghosts: you’re probably wondering why I’ve gathered you all here today

obi wan, dragging out a chalkboard with a compilation of all the times he said not to trust politicians, direct quotes along the lines of “maybe palpatine should not be allowed council with my underage padawan”, and a big picture of darth sidious in the middle: let’s get started

reading problematic fanfiction but shaking my head so random tumblr user who thinks thought crimes are real knows I don't condone it in real life

[willgrahamscock]

ignore my boaner 👍

[willgrahamscock]

fictional characters can't consent because they aren't real.. but YOU can consent to reading heavy themes, and you can withdraw consent by clicking the back button and stopping any time, it is your choice to read stories that include or exclude consent 👍

[willgrahamscock]

I love when puritans are so far up their ass they circle back to being more perverted than the original concept

[willgrahamscock]

Thought crimes of course aren’t real but uh. We know those aren’t just thoughts anymore once you’ve posted them publicly, yeah?

Then they’re just crimes.

sure, fictional crimes since nothing happened and no one was hurt. should we put the fictional handcuffs on? "sorry, you wrote about murder which is illegal, go spend 20 years in mind jail"

[lustcannibalism]

y'all make so much more fuss about shit in fanfiction than crimes in real life

baby Ahsoka called Maul an ugly jabroni - the sequel (x) “Lord Maul, are your horns hurt? Lord Maul, why are you red? Lord Maul, why are you always growling? Lord Maul, can you teach me how to growl?”  this could go on for ages but I couldn’t fit all of her stupid questions and Maul half arse reply in one pic.
