Roachpatrol loves to post halfbaked abuse apologist Thinkpieces but has she ever thought about: shutting the fuck up

i wasn’t aware that anything i’d ever said was trying to dismiss the impact of abuse and the importance of people not being dicks to each other. could you please point me to which posts i made that came off that way, so i could clarify that i do, in fact, think abuse is bad?

Funny that you reblog this post where I was venting frustration and not my more recent one where I actually fairly explicitly talk about what you’ve done and said wrong.

i assure you i wasn’t doing it to make you look bad. this is just the post that showed up in my tracked tag, and i was curious, because this is a new accusation. if you want to link me to your other post i’ll reblog and engage with that one.

I don’t think it’s the most eloquent post I’ve ever made anyways.

But I think if by this point you don’t understand the general arguments people have against you and your support of abuse in fiction and underage nsfw then trying to talk with you is a kinda moot point. I’m stuck on mobile, so I don’t have the ability or energy to come out with a lengthy reply, so I’m going to link a few things:

that is a lot of links to engage with individually. i did read through them, though, and i would like to say what happened to you was terrible and i’m sorry. here’s a couple of responses.

1) i never meant to say ephebophilia wasn’t bad, or that teenage girls should just put up with adult predation and sexualization, or that anyone’s bodies are an excuse for their sexual abuse and assault. i’ve tried to delete the bad posts i made but i’m not sure which ones they are, since people interpret my stuff different ways, and a number have been screencapped or quoted by people interpreting what i said as really bad. once you say something on tumblr, no matter how dumb, it’s forever, it feels like. but i’m sorry.

2) transgaysurvivor’s call-out post is fairly inaccurate though. all my homestuck porn is from years ago (when i was younger and didn’t know it would be considered pedophilia or triggering to csa victims) several of the links either aren’t porn or aren’t underage or are aliens (and one of them isn’t even mine!) and i think my total amount of porn is like seven or eight pictures. also, i haven’t drawn any homestuck porn since being informed that people considered it child pornography, though i have tried to argue that it shouldn’t be considered as such. child porn is not something i ever meant to draw.

3) my blog is marked 18+ and my graphic works were marked NSFW. all my fic on AO3 has thorough content warnings. i think trigger warnings and content restriction is really important to protect people from media they shouldn’t see. but i am very personally opposed to censorship, so i think people should be entitled to make whatever media they want, so long as they tag it properly and make sure anyone who doesn’t want to see it knows not to look. for kids to be exposed to what few porn pictures i made, they would have had to bypass at least one and probably several content warnings. at that point, i consider it their fault they saw something upsetting.

4) most of my friends are survivors of emotional, physical, or sexual abuse, some from childhood. i personally refuse to say whether or not i am a survivor because i have seen many of my friends specifically targeted for harassment and triggering. also i think people shouldn’t get to demand other people expose their trauma like that for public scrutiny, so i’m mad when people do demand that. anyway, i think antis do more harm than good in their overzealous content policing, and they definitely do harm when they encourage group harassment of designated targets.

so when i talk about antis negatively, i’m not saying ‘child porn is great and anyone who doesn’t like it can go fuck themself!’ i’m saying ‘i don’t think the way antis want fandom to be will help more survivors than it hurts.’

5) i hope at least some of this made sense. i’m very tired and sick tonight. i don’t think i’m going to be responding to this thread any further.

6) actually, p.s, i would like to ask you not to call anyone else a fucking freak. that’s a terrible thing to call someone, even if you really dislike them. you could really hurt someone with language like that.
