Ship wars

Jeez, ship wars sure have escalated since I stared in fandom. It used to be specific ship versus specific ship, but now it's like... entire categories of ships are at war with the concept of shipping itself. Or is it the other way around?

Really interesting post about audience and context, thank you for sharing! Complete strangers tracking with higher likelihood of bad faith takes amplified by the lower context makes sense. Actually, that also clarifies why I start sweating whenever I see a post of mine linked on a linkspam from another platform, haha.
