Tags are open to ALL ships. I will not stand for policing what bloggers can/cannot post.
SPN fandom is so cool because we are composed of different ships and communities. J2 is related to the actors, and in no way are us tinhatters harming anyone by posting under the actor tags. Like everyone one else, we are sharing our own thoughts, beliefs, and passions about the actors under their rightful tags.
For anyone to tell a blogger or person that they CANNOT use a tag is wrong. The pattern Iām seeing is that people are policing speech and freedom to expression simply because they donāt like what we have to say. Donāt do that.
You donāt have to like me or my content. Donāt follow me. Donāt look at my stuff. Itās not hard to scroll past me and my stuff. Iām not harming you. Iām not engaging with you.
The tags are open for everyone and anyone to engage with the community.
So Letās all enjoy our ships and get along! Letās be kind to one anotherš
For real yesterday I was wondering maybe I should try to post some tinhat content on Twitter. Yeah, I hate the biggest part of the people there but I know Tumblr audience is not that big and maybe we will reach more tinhatters if we stop hiding here. I was like meditating on the risks of being exposed to so much hate and fandom in general and this morning I see this... Fuck... I dont know this fandom is never going to change we are like a hierarchical pyramid in which there are certain strata that we are condemned to remain below the others and not have the right to anything in general...
Not just tinhatters, wincesties dont tell me that you dont feel like if there was a consensus that we have less rights than destiel shippers? For example...
Even it feels like if the antis have more damn rights than the tinhatters...
Tags are open for all ships! You donāt have to like destiel, wincest, or J2 but that should never give a person the right to tear that down for someone else. Everyone is allowed to like whatever ship they want/post about it.
Iām a tinhatter, but Iām totally okay with destiel or any other ships using actor tags if they like! Iām open to all ships and am always curious to learn more about someone elseās thoughts and views on different ships. I think that people who have to āblockā shippers or bloggers is just a sign of closed mindedness as well.
You may tag your posts a certain way, but policing the way another person does is wrong.
There is NOTHING WRONG with posting ship stuff beneath actor tags. If you donāt like it, itās literally so easy just to keep scrolling.
Since the discourse came up repeatedly in different ways and regarding different tags lately, let me say this:
I tag explicit J2 tinhat content as J2 tinhat and nothing else. I tag J2 shenanigans that could be seen tinhatty or not as J2 and J2 tinhat.
Alas, I tag explicit wincest as #wincest and wincest fic or wincest art or whatever applies but nothing else.
I do not tag general, non-explicit brother content as wincest. Especially not gifs from the show. And I appreciate everyone who doesn't either. Because otherwise people who have wincest blocked will never see most of the Sam and Dean posts. (My post for canon brotherly love, btw.)
For years and years people have complained about hellers spamming the supernatural tag with destiel. Let's not do the same. Not only to not be annoying, but also to keep canon content visible for everyone.
Also, PLEASE, if you are not the creator of some fanwork, don't add a ship tag with your reblog that wasn't put there originally (when it's not explicit). That post is then forevermore hidden for people who have that tag blocked. You're literally diminishing the creators exposure.
Lastly, with rpf shipping, it's just as disrespectful to put tinhat content under an actors name as it is to put hate under an actors name, IMHO. Both to that actor and other fans.
I agree with your take about posting about j2 under the actor /spn tags. Iāll be sure to do the same for cockles and destiel. Also if thereās any Jared padalecki hate, that shouldnāt be under the anti tag. As itās about Jared, whether good or bad, it should be under the normal tag. Cheers. :)
(Iām answering both of these at the same time because I sort of want to put this discussion to rest)
Anons, I completely respect your right to your opinions and beliefs. Iām not here to convince you or change your minds. Iām not here to force you to align with me. Iām not here to fight you either. Thatās the last thing I want to do.
I want to put this to rest, on my blog at least, because my stance has not changed.
Supernatural is made up of so many ship-fandoms. There are so many smaller communities within the SPN fandom that are about shipping characters/actors. It is my strong belief that all of these ship-communities have a right to tags.
Part of what makes ābeing apart of a fandomā so fun is that all of us get to be apart of smaller communities where interests and passion align. For me, that is the tinhatter community.
It seems to clear to me that what a lot of anons are conveying to me through these statements are that they donāt agree with J2 tinhatter content. Thatās totally fine. It is not my job to convince you or force you to believe in the things I do. I respect everyoneās right to ship whoever they want and to be able to tag those posts there without hate.
There are some ships in the SPN fandom that arenāt my cup of tea. However, I will NEVER tell them that they canāt post under actor tags. I will never police them or tell them they are wrong. I have no right to do so, and I respect those communities. I respect their right to enjoy those ships together.
You donāt have to agree with my content. Nor do you have to believe in whatever Iām saying. Itās not my job to mother you. However, tinhatters r just as much apart of the SPN fandom as any other ship. We should be able to enjoy the tags as any other ship or theory blogger.
If you look under Jensen and Jaredās tags, anyone and everyone posts their theories and takes there. Everyone posts ship posts, etcā¦ that is their right.
During this time, I wanted to also address the anon that got a little aggressive with the āitās okay for me to post anti-Jared since itās about the actorā.
It is my hope that everyone on here knows what human decency is. It is my hope that there arenāt people going online to rip apart an actor. I mean, i really do hope there arenāt people out there who actually āanonymouslyā write horrible things about actors because they suddenly have courage sitting behind their computer screens.
But again, i am not your mother and I will not mother you on why it is disgusting to cyber bully other human beings.
My point is, what makes SPN community beautiful is that all of us like the wonderful show and have found communities/content that we are also passionate about.
My blog on tinhatter content has never posted anything to harm J2. I DO NOT Believe in posting hate or harm on my blog. If anything, I came to be a blogger because I love and respect the actors so much. As I have stated in my posts before, all of the things I post are OPINION-BASED! Which means you donāt have to agree or like it if you donāt want too.
Me, a tinhatter, posting my take on an interaction or event between J2 under their tags doesnāt harm anyone. In fact, I blend right in since there are so many others with different theories about J2 or the individual actors.
I understand that not everyone will agree with what I have to say. I respect that, but my blog will continue to post J2 content. Iām not forcing you to believe. All you have to do is scroll past my posts, but tinhatters should be just as welcome to any of the tags as any other ship or theory blogger.
We are a community with different ideas and different minds. That is what makes us unique and beautiful. Please respect other people, their ships, and their beliefs.
please stop posting all the tint J2 theories in the actors tags. can you pleas use the #J2 and #J2tinhat tags, not supernatural are the actors tags. thank you
With all the love in my heart, I must decline.
J2 means Jared and Jensen, which means the most logical thing to do is post my thoughts ON THE ACTORS under their tags.
Why would I post things ABOUT THE ACTORS under anything else? If anything, why wouldn't I use the tags?
I think it would be weird if I posted something about Jensen and Jared under #ChrisEvans.
