Re: I really don't draw a distinction

[feotakahari]

If it counts for anything, I like you. I think you're an intelligent poster who often makes good points. I haven't had your life experiences, but I'm not your opponent in any practical terms.

Re: I really don't draw a distinction

[lady_dragoon]

I appreciate that. But I refuse to stop seeing otherkin/fictionkin as threatening, because dismissing it as "oh well, whatever makes them happy" is exactly how I got sucked in and abused. I learned my lesson and refuse to be complacent when someone is completely dismissing verifiable reality.

That's where I draw the distinction between religion, and shit like this. Religion and faith are by definition unprovable one way or the other. You can't prove deities don't exist any more than people who worship them can prove they do. Thus, it's left up to faith, and nobody's getting hurt unless there is other abuse going on independent of the religion.

I CAN prove that people aren't wolves/panthers/unicorns/gryphons/etc. I CAN prove that the person I'm talking to isn't a character from Homestuck/Undertale/Steven Universe/FF7/etc. People who choose to dismiss verifiable reality in favor of believing their escapist delusion are dangerous to me for the same reason someone following me down the street at night is dangerous; call it Schroedinger's Abuser. They haven't attacked me yet, but I'm not sticking around long enough to find out if they will.
