NAYRT

I am like... 90% confident that doing this will not have any effect

I am also like 95% confident that negativity doesn't actually sour people towards other pairings and people who say that are mostly justifying ships they'd be into anywawy.

There's a lot of pairings that I don't ship, but the only pairings I actively hate are the ones with a vocal asshole fanbase. How a fandom presents itself does make a difference in how their ship is perceived, at least to me.

Maybe. All I'm saying is that I don't think it affects what people actually ship very much.

Every single NOTP I have is because I saw fans harassing others. Most of these are actually whiteships too. And pretty much people tracked big harassment blowups in Star Wars fandom compared to how many new fics were being added to Ao3 and discovered a big fandom attack against another pairing resulted in a serious dip in the number of new fics being added and could even signal a downward trend.

Negatory, good buddy. There are ships I know I'd be into (or was into) that I've been absolutely soured on because of the asshole "SHIP THIS OR YOU'RE RACIST" fanbase. Stormpilot's a good example, actually. I loved that, until the assholes ruined it for me.

*raises hand* That was FinnRey for me. Half the tag was anti-Reylo shit. It can be hard to be a multishipper in the sequel trilogy fandom.

But Reylo is shitty and incesty.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-06 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
No and no. And wtf does that have to do with FinnRey? Nothing.

Yes and yes. And it does!! Because you would rather ship her enemy who tortured her over the man who is her FRIEND.

(Anonymous) 2017-05-06 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
No, the merits (or lack thereof) of Reylo have nothing to do with FinnRey.

Look, I'm a multishipper; I ship both FinnRey and Reylo. The reason I'm way more involved in the Reylo part of fandom is because that side of the fandom isn't routinely involved in shitting on other ships to prop their ship up. Like you're doing. So thanks for reinforcing my point about FinnRey shippers, I guess.

Doesn't shit on other ships...?

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

GOOD ONE. YEAH RIGHT.

The amount of times I have seen them tear down FinnRey because ~Finn is evul~ for not telling the whole truth about who and where he came from (because he was rightfully terrified of what anyone would do to him when he only wanted to get AWAY from the First Order)and how making Rey his cousin would undermine her character...DESPITE wanting to pair her with her abuser cause ~twu wuv~

I could have bought a house AND a new car with the amount of nickels I'd have gotten from all of that bullshit.

Look, if you like Reylo because it has MASSIVE potential to be fucked up? Fine. But if you are one of those who thinks it's the best and true love and that Kylo deserves her and Finn is teh evul? You can kiss my ass because that is a shitty ass pairing and just destroys both Finn and Rey to get there.

+1000

This was multiple MCU ships for me.
