Or maybe you've got a chip on your shoulder, to think that people doing their own thing and enjoying themselves is cramping your personal style.

[(Anonymous)]

salty for being called out on your smug superiority complex about your preferred ship(s), aintcha

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah. So what I'm getting from you is that you're very insecure. I hope things get better for you soon.

[(Anonymous)]

salty confirmed

[(Anonymous)]

DA not nearly as insecure as you appear to be.

[(Anonymous)]

I mean. You come across as the kind of person who sees someone picking up rubbish off the street and declares They're Only Doing It For Brownie Points.

Sometimes people do a thing because they want to. They're not trying to make you look bad - they don't care about you at all. Having Feelings about it isn't doing you any favours in the long run.

[(Anonymous)]

It's usually apparent by how people act about it though. It's one thing seeing someone picking trash off the street and another doing it while loudly complaining about the morals of anyone who doesn't do it as well.

[(Anonymous)]

And anon I was replying to is saying that *everyone* who picks up trash off the street is like that.

That's kind of a problem for anon, yeah?

[(Anonymous)]

No ayrt didn't. They wrote that you get this moral superiority with other types of ships as well, not that everyone does it.

[(Anonymous)]

"You get that moral superiority element with loads of pairing types though - ace, trans, aro, ot3, any pairing where neither of them are white. I think it's just that people are obnoxious as fuck."

I'm not seeing any kind of, 'but many people who like these things are just writing what they like and are probably pretty nice,' vibe in the statement I was replying to.

Comment OP defines anybody and everybody who likes these things as wanting 'moral superiority' and being 'obnoxious as fuck'. The very existence of these things annoys OP, and in the absence of a Woke reason to disdain them they're going for an ad hominem, 'oh those people are just stuck up'.

And I think that's pretty shitty of them.

[(Anonymous)]

No they don't. They only say that this happens with all sorts of ships -which it does - not that everyone who ships these things does it. There are people who treat certain types of ship as activism and think they're morally superior because of that. They ARE fucking obnoxious. Ayrt never said everyone does it, nor did they say you can only ship certain things out of a misplaced sense of moral superiority. Only that some people do.

You're arguing in very bad faith and I think that's shitty of you.

[(Anonymous)]

I literally quoted what they wrote, sweetpea.

Fuck off.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah I read it, sugar, and nowhere does what they wrote say that everyone who ships these things does that. Stop being so intentionally obtuse and read what's actually being written, not what your dense little brain insists on interpreting into it.

[(Anonymous)]

See you, Anon I am currently replying to, seem like the sort of person who looks for the best in people. That's pretty neat.

But I'm not angry with you.

I'm angry with a person who uses phrases like, "being called out on your smug superiority complex about your preferred ship(s), aintcha"

There is no best to look for in them.

I apologise - to you - for calling you 'sweetpea', because condescending language was not helpful. But you are defending someone who is a complete shithead. I respect your kindness. But you are wrong.

And I will bid you good night, and a tomorrow without internet discourse.

[(Anonymous)]

DA> What a condescending, self-righteous ASS you are. You are not only wrong about the OP but this high horse "I'm so superior, I will forgive however the poor peons as long as I approve of them" stuff makes you appear generally foolish as well.

[(Anonymous)]

Someone really, really can't admit they're just wrong, so they move the goal posts. We see you.

[(Anonymous)]

No they don't and you come across as extremely defensive for some reason (mirror, mirror?). Reach any further and you'll fall over.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, shush.

Comment OP

[(Anonymous)]

🤨

[(Anonymous)]

NAYRT

Have you really not ever encountered polyamory maximalists? Either in shipping or in non-shipping discourse?

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT

No? I might just have been lucky in fandoms, that happens.

I never seem to run into the 'F/F must be very soft and sweet or it's Setting A Bad Example' crowd that people talk about either. Which. I assume they're not fibbing or exaggerating, but I've never encountered it.

AYRT

[(Anonymous)]

If you've never experienced the shipping-is-activism crowd in any of your fandoms then you're very lucky!
