The problem again and again comes back to fancops not understanding, and not wanting to understand, that people have experiences that are different from their own. They want everyone to be “normal”, as in “like them.”

Yup. But it’s not about protection. It’s about ship wars. The morality is just a tool to bully people out of making ship content for anything that isn’t their ship.
And how about “if you think it’s illegal, don’t share it with people!”
I think it’s mostly the performative type. They don’t expect bigots to be interacting with their posts. But you know the second a nasty “proshipper” does they’re swinging for the fences.
