No, I think that they're saying there's a small group of awful, awful people who would use 'But it's canon' to mess with the 'Ship and let ship' philosophy the rest of us het, slash, poly, ace, and experimental shippers use to get along with each other. While waving the You're Oppressing Me flag every time they're asked to not be awful.

To be clear: they're saying that those people exist, and that they're specifically slash shippers, and that the Overwatch team's creative decisions should be determined by their existence.

...are you saying those people don't exist? Because I've seen them right here on F!S.

And the OP didn't say "should be." They said "I hope."

I think that many different kinds of awful people exist. It's the other links in the chain of logic that I'm skeptical of.

And the OP didn't say "should be." They said "I hope."

That seems like a distinction without a difference to me? Like, I'm honestly not sure what you're trying to point to here.

JFC, they expressed a hope. They're not saying it SHOULD be this way.

I said it in the other reply above, but I don't see a huge difference between those things? Apparently that's not common, though, so maybe I'm misunderstanding.

If you don't get the difference between "I wish" and "you should," I don't really know what to tell you.

I mean, obviously they're not actually dictating terms to the creative team. But both of those things seem to me to mean something like "I think it would be better if they did this" or "I want them to do this" or something.

OP here.
I'm not sure how to clarify here. I was just stating a personal preference that I don't mean to force on anybody or even demand from Blizzard.

"they're saying that those people exist, and that they're specifically slash shippers"

TBF, They are not wrong. The most brutal fandom policing I have seen is when someone decide to ship a gay character in a het romance. Cuz..you know, making a character fuck a dog is cool, but a pretend het romance is literally killing gay kids.
