I know this ridiculous discourse happens in the runup to every Pride, but is it just me or is it worse than usual this year?

it started earlier than before this year and seems to be much worse. i’m honestly wondering if there’s not TERFiness happening behind the no kink at pride shit since they’re all about Protecting The Babies.

I've been sort of scanning through the profiles of folks who are particularly loudly anti and trying to see like...where this might be originating and it's...unclear? but looks/feels very TERF infused fandomy

this is very deep into internet lore, but a few years ago, TERFs spent a lot of time on tumblr with a campaign against the term “queer” as an umbrella term, so shit like that is absolutely within their ability.

I just saw a screencap of a kink-at-pride-makes-the-cishets-think-we're-filthy-degenerates type saying "excuse me, I _am_ 'queer'", with the scare quotes, so I think that part hasn't gone away at all.

it’s honestly scary. i’m less involved in tumblr than I used to be which is why I don’t see it as much (I rarely see ~discourse~ over there).

there's also definitely something else going on? like the terves are part of it but something else is in there that I can't quite pin down

fandom antis were _very quickly_ making the leap from "you like a ship in which I think one of the characters is abusive" to "you're an abuser", and I'm seeing some no-kink-at-pridesters go very quickly from "you think seeing leather won't harm kids" to "you're a pedo".
