Klance was far more toxic, but okay.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
+1 (I shipped both at the time)

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
As a fan of neither pairing, by the end, I couldn't tell a klancer from a shieth for how batshit the two sides were.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Amen to that.

Everything I've seen and heard indicates to me that both Klance and Sheith shippers were insanely terrible and bad, and it's pointless to say which was better or worse. They both sucked.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
The difference is whatever sheithers did was usually in reaction to klancers initiating shit. You've got a behemoth ship full of antis going against the less popular proship, to argue both sides are equivocal is delusional.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
You've heard correctly. Klance shippers sucked for a longer period of time, but sheith shippers swooped in and really put up a fight to take the "most awful fandom" award.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, it was a classic case of a fandom having two big ships that constantly went after each other and everyone else not into them just trying to fucking live in peace. I don't miss that fandom at all, lol.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Both were bad, but not the same level of bad. Sheith had some shitty fans who ruined the whole fanbase if you want to view it that way, but Klance had ALL shitty fans. There was no decent fanbase to ruin. I am not even exaggerating when I say I only encountered two Klance fans EVER who were decent. Sheith was about 30/70 on the batshit/decent ratio. Sheith's batshit tended to be elitism and entitlement to their ship being canon, while Klance's was that plus doxxing, death threats, sending CSEM to Sheith shippers. This is not a both sides issue, and if it looked like that to you, it's because you only rubbernecked at the fandom without being in the middle of it.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
There were plenty of chill Klance fans, they were just not on the battlefront, what are you on about.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Spoken like a true sheith shipper who thinks their fandom shit didn't stink.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I was on the Klance side because my friend group was and we were all just chilling in the basic bitch rivals-to-lovers/red-blue trope and didn't even know there was a war until a half-naked Sheith poster turned up in our local con's artists alley lmao

I'll be sure to tell my friend who was harassed out of the fandom by shieths that they were 'less toxic' I'm sure that'll make her feel better. By the end of the show both sets of shippers were fucking awful, I'm so glad the show tanked both ships.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
For every case of that, there's a zillion more for Sheiths. Your bias is showing.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, your side was just as fucking bad you just couldn't see it because you'd convinced yourselves you were the 'poor picked on underdogs'. So your bias is showing.

No, no, you've got it all wrong. Sheith fans never did anything wrong, and even if they did, klancers did it first so it doesn't count. Sheith fans were all innocent victims of the evil klancers. Your friend was probably justifiably bullied because she didn't agree that the confetti at Shiro's wedding being red was a clear sign of executive meddling in the originally planned Sheith union.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Real and true, I was there at the wedding, I saw everything

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 06:40 am (UTC)(link)
Not the confetti conspiracy.

This reminds me of the Sheith socks for Voltron campaign to get the studio to release the “real and unedited” version of season 8 lmao.

Voltron fandom was an embarrassing mess beginning to end.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Every time Voltron is mentioned on this comm, it's always the Sheith veterans throwing the first volley to make sure everyone knows THEY were the real victims.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-21 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
This community has, what, 20 regular posters who are all old people and therefore skew towards the more "problematic" ship? Using FS as a metric for anything is silly.

This comment thread is toxic.

*touches the ground* Something terrible happened here.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
+2

shipped both. I didn't have any problems shipping Sheith. The Klance side though...

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Agreed. I had nothing to do with Voltron aside from my OTP also being on Tumblr's Top 20 Ships of the week and yet I still ran into insane Klance shippers and their antics. Did not have the same experience with the other ship.
