That's a good philosophy. I've seen too many kink memes implode on themselves after the trigger warning police moved in, and then from there people start judging each other based on the prompts.

Kink memes are like, literally the least politically correct thing in existence by their very nature. Why are we trying to change that?

m f t e

I'm sorry, but what kink memes are is a safe place for triggers. They are TOTAL TRIGGER UTOPIA. That's just the nature of the beast. If your triggers are such that your typical kink meme prompts and fills, which are often quite traumatic and wrong which is a big reason why they arouse the people requesting them, are in constant danger of triggering and fucking you up, then you need to find another way to experience them. Trying to change what kink memes are and how they work is NOT THE ANSWER.

-Work together with others to find and make an indexing system that warns for the triggers you particularly need to worry about.

-Wait until kink meme fills are posted to an archive like Ao3, where the tagging and warning system is more elaborate.

-Modify your firefox through scripts and filters to block out certain words, phrases, whatever.

Trying to change the structure of a kink meme, and to have the writers cater to you, is NOT THE ANSWER. Writers should basically be filling kink meme prompts in a state of lustful near-drunkenness, tbh. Worries about offense should be their last priority.

This shit does nothing but cause bickering and festering and endless stupid-ass arguments. It kills creativity and kills kink memes completely dead. I've seen it over and over and over again.

Yeah. And it's not like I don't believe in triggers; I know they exist, several of my family members have them. I just have never seen a fandom comm where they've been implemented in any sort of useful way (since triggers tend to be things like specific tone of voice/wallpaper pattern/a certain piece of music and similar).

I also don't think it's either possible or desirable to make fandom a "safe space" for everyone (especially as a safe space can mean the exact opposite for two different people).

But most of all, it's the moral judgement on people's fantasies that bother me.
