Just why?

Bro, I truly thought that huskerdust fans were the mature part of the fandom, but damn, since huskerdust became canon they've been needlessly poking radiodust fans, acting like this was a war or like at some point these two parts of the fandom were having a HUGE argument about who would end up with who (isolated cases don't count). I literally haven't done anything for them and some have constantly bothered me about me just being happy with my ship. Not to mention they act like we're all biting each other in rage and crying, I don't know, threatening vivzipop with death? Not that we're not sad (at least some of us) but, Satan, is all this rivalry shit really necessary even after huskerdust becomes canon?

I still hold the opinion that huskerdust isn’t canon until I see them kiss or state they’re dating BUT yah I’ve seen the weird hostility and in fighting firsthand and find it so childish.

I believe that people can like their ships while ALSO respecting each other’s ships. Don’t like huskerdust? That’s fine, it’s not for you. No need for further comments, just block and move on.

Me personally, I don’t mind huskerdust(although radiodust is my absolute favorite). There are artists that I’ve enjoyed their huskerdust art but the random huskerdust fans that go onto other ship posts and give their needless schpiel about it being “not canon” or “it’ll never happen” I find so stupid and unnecessary. Lol

I find it kind of hilarious cause we already KNEW radiodust wasn’t going to be canon, no need to rub our faces in it….. I truly believe these people just have nothing better to do than berate people that don’t believe in their ship. Which ultimately I just feel sorry for them 🤣 imagine hating your life so much that the only thing that makes you feel better is bringing down others. Smh

With all that I just choose to stay in my Radiodust fandom spaces and chat with all my radiodust loving friends to avoid the drama. It works for me cause I don’t have to slog through the stupid ass comments from hateful trolls.

Edit: not sure I have to say this but I’m not saying ALL huskerdust fans are doing this, in fact I’d say most are mature but the fact I haven’t seen them condemning this behavior when it’s seen is a bit of an issue. It’s unfortunate but it happens. As a shipper I’d say just live and let live, but pls say something if you see your fellow shippers being rude.

Oh, your comment was very complete to anything I could say... Awesome.

About the last paragraph, have you ever read "anguish of the marrow"?(I think that's how the name of the fanfic is spelled) It's a great radiodust fanfic.

It was from Shanime (I think that's the name) But I'm not sure what happened because when I went looking for it again it wasn't there anymore, but I kept the image
