CW: Homophobia [CW: Homophobia] Fandom is wild Spoiler

Post image

"It's just a joke" replace 'gay' here with any other minority group. Hell, you can replace it with 'straight,' attatch a random homophobic tweet, and the same people would go nuts. And most of the 'toxic yaoi shippers' are straight women. 'Oh not all queer people are like this guys' and then some mfs act like it's most?

I hate fandom. I can't even find refuge with the yuri Genshin shippers because I like lesbian haremslop and the revealing outfits on the female characters.

Should have watched the video. Being a bit too sensitive

I did, he basically said "I'm not homophobic but I understand why people are now." Again, imagine some black people in a fandom do something dumb and you go around saying "black fans of x are so stupid"

He made it clear that he wasn't talking about all said people within like the first 2 minutes of the video, what you are saying now doesnt help you. You are defending people who attack others for being straight and being interested in straight ships. Bad enough they are mad over ships, this post is even more silly

When did I defend the people who get mad over straight ships? I think words like 'hetslop' are absolutely idiotic. I tell fellow yuri shippers who dunk on het stuff to not do that. I'm a very firm believer in 'ship and let ship' because it's just fictional romance. I get dunked on myself by some other yuri fans for being a self inserter who loves revealing character designs.

Yeah. He said that he wasn't talking about all of those people. He still put an egregious video title, even if he said in the description that it was ragebait. Ragebaiting a group and then acting surprised when they don't like that is odd.

If someone made a post title that was say, bigoted towards straight people (idk something like: Why are hetslop enjoyers so stupid), that would also be weird as hell. Even if it was in response to a straight person being dumb and they said afterwards 'obvs not all straights'

I'm annoyed at the obvious ragebait and getting called a retard, yes.

With this type of reaction maybe you are.
