We’re not a huge fan of it, but we wouldn’t unfollow somebody over it, or blame them for it.

A death threat message is targeted violence against the person it’s sent to. I can’t blame someone for responding violently against a direct, personal attack.

What we can’t stand is generalized violent messages toward people who haven’t personally done anything to you specifically.

It’s one thing to respond to a threat, it’s another thing entirely to fire shots into a crowd.

While I can excuse revenge fantasies and wanting to harm people who harmed you is very common, I think that proshipper is taking it too far with using anti tags out of spite and offering to dehumanizing antis. They aren’t under any obligation to be nice to antis, but this is being on the same level as them. Antis are very effective and cruel and with people like that, you need to avoid them, not start anything with them. Definitely NOT forgiveness, but antis aren’t worth engaging with.

I gotta agree.

If we agree that antis shouldn’t be making “jokes” about violence against proshippers, then there’s no way in hell we can be okay with jokes about violence against antis without being massive fucking hypocrites.
