"Squicked" won't garner enough sympathy to claim the moral high ground, though.

I once reblogged some purist's "so triggered" post just to ask "so you're saying that just accidentally reading a bottom!Dean fanfic gave you flashbacks?" Which was an asshole thing to do, but I was done with Tumblr at that point anyway, so it was worth it just to sit back and watch the hate roll into my asks and LAUGH MY ASS OFF.

Exactly. If you can claim to be triggered, you can kick up a fuss that something should be taken down and that the person who posted it is bad and should feel bad.

Saying you were squicked will, at best, get someone to add a warning they had previously omitted, but otherwise people will just shrug and say "Well, it should have been clear from the title of my post..." or "Why are you reading a fic labeled "mature" then?"

It wasn't an asshole thing, it was an AWESOME thing. People should be bringing up this distinction more often.

And it's still baffling to me that people get so MILITANT about ships. I mean, as long as fandom and fanfic has been around at this point, you would think people would be used to the idea that other people aren't going to be 100% down with their pairing/kink all the time, and are going to want to read or write something different? I mean, why can't the Top!Deans and Bottom!Deans, or the Toplocks and the TopWatsons just peacefully co-exist in the world without trying to come up with some sort of manufactured moral panic about how the other ship or kick is problematic or ZOMGeval!!!!??? This is why we still can't have nice things.
