“Gwynriels also use E/riel commissions without asking or to hate.”
No. We don’t. And when anyone does something like that, we call them out and report them. Because unlike you, we don’t have a parasocial relationship with fictional ships. We actually recognize that shipping characters isn’t some moral or ethical stance it’s just preference.
So when someone acts out of line, we don’t defend them just because they’re a “fellow Gwynriel.” We hold them accountable. And honestly, if someone had done that, you would’ve already plastered screenshots all over like you do by stealing art. Don’t pretend you wouldn’t that’s literally your whole shtick.
So no, we don’t do what you do.
"We are allowed to talk about whatever art I saw on my blog."
Sure. You are allowed to talk about it. Nobody’s stopping you. Is it distasteful, cringy, and pathetic. Yes. But yes you absolutely have the right to talk. And judging by your content, you seem very comfortable marinating in that pathetic energy.
The problem isn’t your opinion. The problem is that you’re stealing artworks from multiple artists just to mock, belittle, and trash them. That’s not “criticism,” that’s art theft, plain and simple. If you want to whine about a ship, do it with your own screenshots and your own effort. Stop taking from artists who actually put time, talent, and love into their work.
Think of it this way if some incel preteen wants to post his weird, embarrassing incel nonsense, fine. That’s his little echo chamber, and his audience is there for it. But the second he starts stealing other people’s creations to fuel his hate-posting, it crosses the line. He’ll get called out. Just like you are now.
“We were just supporting our claims that you stole OUR moment.”
First of all, get a life. Second, that’s still stealing. You can’t justify theft by saying you were “proving a point.”
And third who told you that you own a “moment” where someone asks about someone else’s hobbies? Like, do you seriously think only your ship can have that? By that logic, if my fiancé asks about my hobbies, I’m apparently “stealing an E/riel moment”? The entitlement is insane.
You stole art. You acted immature. You embarrassed yourself trying to justify it. And you gave the rest of us secondhand embarrassment in the process.
“We don’t have to be happy or appreciate the artist for drawing E/riel.”
No one’s asking you to. You don’t have to like it, you don’t have to say a single kind thing about it. But what you don’t get to do is steal it, post it without permission, and mock it. That’s harassment. That’s bullying. That’s theft. And that’s where you crossed the line. Multiple times
You don’t have to “appreciate” art that doesn’t fit your preferences. But you sure as hell don’t get to weaponize someone’s work to feed your hate-blogging addiction.
“We didn’t say anything, we just said E/riels shouldn’t commission her.”
That is saying something. That’s called targeted harassment. You’re encouraging people not to support an artist based on the ships they draw and then acting like your hands are clean. Be serious.
And imagine if the situation was reversed if we said, “Don’t commission her because she drew your ship.” You’d all lose your minds. You’d flood dashboards crying “harassment” and “anti behavior.” But when you do it, it’s suddenly okay? The hypocrisy is exhausting.
“All our artworks have comments where people say things like ‘I’m an Elucien shipper, not E/riel etc etc.’”
And? Congratulations, so do we. that’s the internet. Every platform Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok has people with different opinions under the same post. You’re not special. We get those comments too.
But here’s the difference: we don’t steal other people’s art to feed our hate posts. We scroll. We move on. You don’t.
So maybe stop pretending you’re fighting for “fandom ethics” when you are the toxicity you claim to hate.
You don’t get to steal art, harass artists.
