Something that bugs me is when antis say "you aren't oppressed!!!" to someone who's proship.
I'd say 99% of those who are proship are in fandom... And a good majority of those in fandom are queer, disabled, a POC, etc etc.
There are also different types of oppression: political oppression, social oppression, financial oppression, and so on.
The Merriam Webster definition of oppression is:
"unjust or cruel exercise of authority or power"
This does define what most of the fandom kinksters experience, no?
The statement "you aren't oppressed" towards one who is proship and in one or many minorities also sounds like "your trauma doesn't matter because you're x!"
Antis have a history of telling CSA victims that their trauma doesn't matter because they don't "cope pretty."
Antis also say this statement and also literally do try to oppress us. I've seen petitions on change org made to "make 'proshipping' illegal." Ignoring the fact they use proshipping as a verb, this is an attempt at political oppression... right?
And antis will get upset when we "act oppressed" and tell use we're not oppressed... And then oppress us when we don't "act oppressed!"
But, "Oh, think of the children!.."
YES, DO THINK OF THE CHILDREN! Think about how WRONG it is to send DEATH THREATS to a CHILD... AND WATCH YOUR KIDS ONLINE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD...
No puritan deserves a child. Children deserve to be able to safely explore their identity. If you have genuine fears that a child is unsafe, DON'T MAKE THEM FEEL EXTRA UNSAFE...
I do not condone nor encourage those who are younger than 18 to be in 18+ spaces, but I don't think minors in those spaces deserve to be killed for it...
Puritans, please, find a hobby. Child abuse isn't a hobby... Abuse isn't "doing the right thing" and you "maiming pedos" is a lie. In fact, harassing children ENABLES predators. I assume all antis are in fact predators...
Think of this post as a big "fuck you" to all T.R.A.S.H. puritans... 😊👍
