Okay so she-ra fandom drama: there was a super popular anti who deleted her blog and has stopped interacting with the fandom because she made a couple posts about how catra/dora was “abusive and incest” and a bunch of other popular antis who did ship catra/dora unfollowed her and started vagueing about her on their blogs. The anti who deleted then put an “apology” on her art blog and almost half of it was her whining about how she was “betrayed” by her mutuals. (1/2)
Anon send me screenshots of the apology and… wow… it does indeed lack self awareness
It’s… very long and is a lot to take in.
Um. Okay. Don’t even know where to start with this.
So a few things.
1.
“it doesn’t have to be that way for everyone else. I see that now. … my personal reasons are okay for not wanting to ship it, but it’s not reason to try and force it on everyone else”
later
“I’ll still be sus about people shipping it though”
Oh bless your heart, you were so close to getting the point
2.
Not related to the She-ra ship but
“Keith
just treats Lance like shit constantly.”
I mean I know it’s nothing new
that antis think Keith treats Lance poorly when anyone with eyes who
watches the show knows that it’s the opposite, but reading this cracked
me tf up lmaoooo

“maybe that’s an interpretation and we can all coexist and your discomfort is valid but it’s not everyone’s”
Obviously you clowns can comprehend this when it comes to Catradora. Why can’t y’all do the same to other ships like Sheith and Thorki??
See being an anti sounds exhausting, I’m too tired to deal with this middle school drama shit over fandoms and having different opinions.
Like… I feel bad for these kids (assuming they are kids) because obviously this stuff upsets them and their “friends” turn on them over the pettiest crap and that sucks. But it’s also kinda funny lol. Usually funny… depends on other factors, sometimes it’s just sad and depressing.
You can send screenshots if you want yeah! I’ll censor usernames though
“it wasn’t convenient for anyone to think that way anymore because
when I became a target everyone else became afraid of becoming one too”
And that, my friends, is the anti community in a nutshell. Yet antis still stay and deny that they’re all toxic.
This is not so much directed at op of the apology, but at the antis they’re apologizing too. They’re ALL having zero self awareness. You know damn well antis read this and were like “we forgive you for making a mistake, don’t do it again” and the single braincell they all share didn’t pick up on the irony of it all.

I almost feel bad for OP. They apologized for… being an anti. If instead of Cathradora, they had made a post calling Sheith or Eremika incest, they would’ve been praised by antis. But they made the mistake of thinking most antis actually CARED about morals and that this wasn’t a ship war disguised as activism.
It’s also just sad because they’re being treated the way antis treat other shippers - Shaladin
shippers, Bakudeku shippers, Thorki shippers, etc - yet they’re probably still going to
be an anti after all this. I can’t
