Being anti-ship or anti-fiction is just inherently and sometimes blatantly anti-kink.
“Romanticising/sexualising abuse”, “using my trauma as a fetish tool”, and literally any variation of “you use trauma as a kink so you think it’s great” has been said against BD/SM, CNC, etc, since forever. This has been disproven or otherwise explained as to why that sentiment is wrong. Same applies to fiction.
Not to mention that understanding someone may have a fantasy, kink, fetish, whatever, doesn’t necessarily mean that they actually want it to happen in real life. Take for example, someone with a detransition kink. They may own a blog dedicated to it, get off of it, and write about it extensively, still doesn’t mean that they actually want to detrans and that they aren’t happy with their transition.
Also 90% of what anti-shippers are complaining about are just kinks or fetishes. CNC, fauxcest, power dynamics, teacher/student, the list goes on.
That fic that “endorsed” abuse was probably just a story between two fictional characters in a fictional scenario that had a power dynamic, sadism, and rough sex. That “nasty” fic was probably just someone’s way of enjoying their abduction and CNC kink or fetish in an outlet.
