Call me Singularity. I made this account because I’m very displeased with shit. She/they please, here’s my stances:
-Anti radqueer: Most transids aren’t valid if not actively harmful. Harmful paras are not orientations.
-Anti darkship: While I am generally against Darkshipping an adjacent, I do not consider myself to be hostile towards all proshippers equally.
-Kink critical: I think some kinks are harmful, whether do to then negative effects of its social normalization or direct harm caused to those who practice said kinks.
-Sex neutral: I don’t believe sex/sexuality is inherently good or bad. Rather, I believe that sex is morally neutral.
-Anti censorship: The government should never outlaw or ban art in any context, way, shape, or form.
-Religious critical: The concept of religion alone is not bad, but certain religions definitely can and do cause harm.
-Anti-conservative: Conservatism is an ideology that isolates and harms marginalized groups. Many of the “traditions” they seek to conserve are incredibly harmful to anyone who isn’t the ruling class.
-Pro-alterhuman: Even if every aspect of the community is not something I personally understand, alterhumanity is not harmful and is sometimes the best way for people (including myself) to express themselves.
-Anti-harassment: Harassment in anyway, shape, or form is bad. This includes doxxing, threats, and false accusations of being a predator.
I am in my 30s. When I was younger, the term "proship" didn't exist, but that mentality was basically the default on the early internet. Roleplay, art and fanfic spaces were chock FULL of adults and children engaging in the most extreme paraphilic fetish stuff together and nobody bat an eye. I was about 10 when I first got involved in these spaces.
When I was a kid, there was no pushback whatsoever. In fact, there was a lot of the opposite. A lot of "Japan has the right idea about sex! America is just so backwards!" and genuinely defending Japan's age of consent/child porn issues, with real children, TO real children. I spent pretty much all of my childhood, from 10 to 18, engaging with adults grooming me and sexually exploiting me in these spaces. It resulted in offline assault.
I am dumbfounded and disturbed when I watch people my own age defend the same type of people who actively or passively participated in my grooming. They're active predators at best, or just selfish morons at worse, prioritizing their own orgasm over the material reality of what's happening in these spaces. Especially if you start paying attention to the types of people who tend to be "proshippers," "lolicons" and "radqueers."
I don't look for this content, I actually actively do all I can to avoid it because it's very triggering for me. But it still comes up. And almost every single time it does pop up, I check the profile before I block them, and it's a child. Usually under 14. I feel so saddened when I see this every time, because they're undoubtedly living the exact same thing I was living. At the time, I didn't realize how much danger and harm I was doing to myself, because I was a child. I just feel so sad for them.
And then I think at the same time--we have all these kids en masse spitting out pro-paraphilia and pro-paraphilia porn ideology... where are they getting these concepts and talking points? Who are the adults whispering these ideas into their ears? It's in the community spaces they frequent. The adults that claim they have nothing to do with minors, are magically influencing what huge swaths of minors say and consume. Curious, that.
The people I hate the most are the people who blame the parents for this above all else. This is a systemic issue, and spoilers, some kids have abusive/neglectful parents. Does that mean any adult who takes advantage of these children are immune from consequences? The children of the abused and neglected are just fodder for pedophiles and we all have to accept that so grown fucking adults my age can peacefully jerk it to 14 year old anime siblings on AO3?
It's exhausting. I thought we'd be in a better place on this issue by now. I thought with the rise of social justice and feminism, kids wouldn't go what I went through in the early 2000s. I'd say it's WORSE now. I'd say MORE kids are going through it. And we're all pretending like it's not a big deal.
I've noticed that the people who were raised in the early internet days talk about being exposed to sexual and violent content as kids like it's something to brag about. It's very similar to how boomers often talk about the neglect and abuse they would get from their parents and act as if modern generations are somehow weaker for being rightfully repulsed by it.
below is the transcript for the Palace’s main trial.
PALACE
The Borealis Palace is the seedbed of influence. Celebrities, politicians, and even royalty are plentiful to find in the light of the party as well as in the dark of the love rooms. In one end of its heart, riches and wine flow inwards. And in the other end, blood and perverted atrocity spills outward.
Shuttle hallucinations (main trial)
You see visions of crowds of mannequins staring at you, many of which have flamethrowers that torch you. You also see the Kress Twins birthing two different people: a Bride and a Groom. Whom you see together at the altar. You also see the Groom getting caressed by kinky mannequins as well as the Bride injecting herself with a needle. The hallucination ends with intercepting visions of the Bride on fire running at you and shaking you, while the Groom slowly walks towards you and just stands in front of you as he burns.
main trial: DISRUPT THE MARRIAGE
“You are the scorching fire when oxytocin is the breeding grounds of corruption. A marriage of convenience has been arranged to bloat the swine’s pockets and to spread their disease. Tarnish the political union. Immolate the couple’s bodies. And we will let you out.”
Infiltrate the palace: you spawn in the front garden of the Borealis Palace and find a bunch of mannequins celebrating. However, once you get to the front door to the Palace, a ticket taker mannequin stops you and asks for an invitation. “Maybe you can get one from that weird guy in the greenhouse.”
Kill the Target to Gain Access to the Palace: in the greenhouse, there is a mannequin saying “That bitch hurt me too much! Kill them and I’ll get you an invitation.” next to three staticky TVs and a wood chipper. Throughout the front garden are 3 Heavy Signal Scramblers that you must carry over to the wood chipper and throw them in to destroy them and clear up one of the TVs to get a clue on the person the scorned mannequin wants you to destroy. Once you find the right mannequin and throw them into a wood chipper, the scorned mannequin will produce an invitation. The clues are:-
Body (male, female, child)
Location (roses, lavender, etc.)
Symbol (star⭐️, fire,🔥 etc.)
Spread Rumours about the Couple: once the large doors open, you find four Light Signal Scramblers that you must use to convert specific rooms’ celebrations into jealous gossip. You do this by holding down the button on the Light Signal Scrambler while inside of the room, which produces a high pitch hum that enemies can hear and it increases a meter from 0% to 100%.
Kress Twins’ Intro: once all of the rooms are gossiping, regroup in the ballroom where you find a reagent running down a hallway between some fancy stairs before getting blocked by a roller gate. The Kress Twins carve into him as he claws at the gate. After they’re done with him, they yell at you. “This beautiful event is for friends and family only!” “Filthy intruders… like rats in the basement.”
Escort and Dirty the Bride and Groom: after the Kresses walk off, two shuttle gates on opposing sides of the ballroom’s landing open up, splitting reagents into two teams.
In the North wing, you find the Bride (who is very scared and pleading to Easterman for mercy) in a metal frame that has an empty fuse box on it. Find fuses to power her frame and move her along as well as to open gates. The fuse box on her frame has two spots: 1 fuse makes her move slowly, while 2 fuses will make her move more quickly. Once you’ve escorted her to her chambers, she’s injected in the arms with a chemical that slurs her speech and sedates her before she moves into a Murkoff employees only room.
In the South wing, you find the Groom (who has given up and is asking you to just kill him quickly) who, just like the Bride, has a fuse box in his frame that needs to be powered to move him. However, the fuses on the South wing, which come from a dispenser, are unstable and will explode after 10 seconds of use. Once you’ve escorted him to his chambers, he will be doused in gasoline before he moves into a Murkoff employees only room.
Gain Access to the Wedding Venue: after the Bride and Groom are taken care of, the roller gate in the ballroom opens and lets you into the love rooms, where you find a large door with four keypads near it with room signs above them (Paddle Room, Leather Room, etc.). In each of the rooms, there is a staticky TV and a Heavy Signal Scrambler. Take the Heavy Signal Scrambler to the basement (via dumbwaiters as there’s a heavy item gate blocking the basement) and throw them into the shredder to clear up their respective TVs, revealing the number you need to press on the keypad.
Kress Twins’ Second Intro: when the code to the door is correct, it opens up to a wedding ceremony at the end of an aisle that’s blocked off with a row of mannequins on rails. You watch the Bride and Groom move on rails up to the altar and onto a fenced off pyre. When you hit the button, the Kress Twins barge in from the side and step onto the priest’s podium to bark at you “A wedding is a… a sacred Union…!” “‘Til death tears them part…” “Of lovers! You’ll die in a dirge for your transgressions!” before the row of mannequins move aside and the side parts of the wedding venue open up.
Execute the Bride and Groom: there are four mannequins by the Bride and Groom. 2 bridesmaids in kinky outfits and 2 shirtless groomsmen. Replace them with flamethrower mannequins and once all of them are replaced, push down on the pump on the priest’s podium to ignite the pyre that the Bride and Groom are on until they catch fire and burn alive.
( Completely normal voice and tone ) Do you ever think about how the trial victims sometimes call out to the prime asset or mention them in a manner. Do you ever think of how the Judge calls out for Coyle for help, or how Erik pleads to Otto and Arora, or even how the Deviant asks to be prettied for mama. Do you ever think about how they are in so much of a desperate situation they are willing to call out for the murderous watchers who patrol each trial. Do you ever think about how they try and grasp at anything that could save them and free them from the fate they have
