things that DO make this website “toxic”:
- adults holding young minors to the exact same standards as them
- staff ignoring literal nazis and pedophiles
- the popular idea on here that mildly (quote unquote) “problematic” statements always hold the exact same weight regardless of whether they were made 5 minutes ago or 5 years ago
- terfs

things that DON’T make this website “toxic”:
- calling white people “mayonnaise”
- kids still figuring out their respective mental states
- people constantly finding out new terms for whatever gender they want to identify by
- people identifying as otherkin and not even hurting anyone else by doing that

The otherkin one is a bit iffy though. Like, if someone claims to be otherkin of a character you made as a coping mechanism then guilt tripping you for being mad that they are hijacking your coping character, then that is toxic.

okay, but that’s GUILT TRIPPING being toxic, not otherkinity being toxic?? that’s like saying stopsigns are dangerous because a murderer used one to chop somebody’s head off. the murderer is the dangerous part, not the stop sign. otherkinity isn’t toxic. period.

Even claiming to be the character someone else made to cope with something is toxic though since yo’re taking their pain and exploiting it. Like, if a schizophrenic makes a character based off of their hallucinations and you claim to be that character IRL, you’re a dick. And no, this isn’t some random scenario, this is something I’ve seen actually happen.

hi! are you schizophrenic? cause i am! you don’t get a say in that!
hi! are you otherkin? cause i am! you don’t get a say in that either!
hi! do you have proof or links or receipts? cause i haven’t seen em!
you’re reaching. so far. sooo far. ask somebody to pass you the fucking pasta reaching across the table like this is rude.

@silver-tongues-blog also, you using the suffering of schizophrenics to try and prove your argument (that isn’t even about schizophrenia) is exploitation so go fuck yaself

And you’re overgeneralizing my statement. I said that claiming to be otherkin of someones coping character is toxic but you misconstrue that to encompass the entirety of otherkin.

Claiming to be otherkin of someones coping character IS toxic.

and you’re trying to use a specific made up example to demonize otherkin and make them seem toxic
yeah, claiming the identity of someone’s coping character is toxic
that isn’t otherkinity, that isn’t otherkin being toxic, that doesn’t make otherkin toxic
your argument is toxic though! nice how you’re ignoring the fact that you did the exact thing you said you were against: exploiting the pain of mentally ill people for your own benefit

I’m not demonizing otherkin. I’m “demonizing” those who claim to be kin with someones coping character. you’re the one who is generalizing my statement.

So you’re saying that if someone has a character they use to cope with mental illness or trauma and someone claims kin with it, the creator isn’t allowed to do anyhting?

1: okay, don’t say otherkin are toxic then. they aren’t. say that people who exploit people’s coping mechanisms are toxic. that’s like saying water is bad because people have drowned in it. water isn’t bad, murder is bad. otherkin aren’t fucking toxic. OTHERKIN AREN’T FUCKING TOXIC. OTHERKIN. AREN’T. FUCKING. TOXIC.

2: where the fuck did i say that? where the fuck did i say that it’s okay for someone to claim kin with a coping character? find that. find it. i’ve been saying that people SHOULDN’T do that this entire fucking time, and that people actually DON’T do it cause they’re decent fucking people. you still have yet to supply an example of someone claiming kin with a coping character against their wishes. most otherkin ARE OTHERKIN for fucking COPING REASONS!! shocker! stop making shit up oh my god

1) Otherkin arn’t toxic, the ones who claim to be someone elses coping character are

2) you’re getting mad at me for saying that people who claim to be someones coping character are toxic so I assumed you think that’s permissible.

i’m not! getting mad at you! for saying people who claim to be a coping character! are toxic! I WAS! AGREEING WITH YOU! THAT CLAIMING TO BE A COPING CHARACTER! IS TOXIC!

i was getting MAD AT YOU for using the made up example of somebody doing a shitty thing (such as claiming the identity of a coping character) and trying to apply the example that never happened to an entire group of people who would never do that

“the otherkin one is iffy” you said
otherkin are toxic is what you meant. that is what that meant. august said otherkin weren’t toxic and you disagreed with them. period.

otherkin! AREN’T TOXIC! people who claim the identity of coping characters ARE TOXIC! but guess what? PEOPLE WHO CLAIM THE IDENTITY OF COPING CHARACTERS
A R E N ’ T
O T H E R K I N

I wasn’t using it to condemn an entire group. I never said that all otherkin are bad. I said just the ones who claim to be someone elses coping character are.

Did… Did you not even read any of this?
