( No Title )
This is a picture called: Otherkin
i really wanted to draw this in order to show people that “supporting” Species dysphoria (Otherkin) in people can end up really bad. This is especially a critique directed to Tumblr Users.
This illustration belongs to me.
WOW.
You have absolutely no idea how being otherkin works, and if you think this is actually helping anyone than you need to get your fucking brain checked out.
We don’t encourage people to act like their kintypes. We all know we’re fucking humans beings. We identify as nonhuman on a non-physical level. NON-PHYSICAL. Get that through your thick skull.
Do you have literally any source of anyone ever committing suicide because people on Tumblr told them to act more like their kintype? Do you have any sources whatsoever of anyone who’s actually done what you’ve written about in your shitty little poem? Do you have any fucking clue what being otherkin means? Clearly you don’t, if you thought something like this would change anyone’s mind whatsoever!
Your concern trolling is duly noted and extremely unappreciated. If you really wanted to help us “cure” ourselves then maybe consider deleting this awful fucking post and rethinking your entire approach to our community.
I’m not going to sass you here. I’m not playing around. This is not okay. This is super fucked up, and you’re really not making a good impression on me or any other otherkin by posting this in the first place.
Delete this post and think about what the fuck you’re actually trying to say here, and think about who you’re really trying to reach with posts like this.
It’s not otherkin.
I won’t delete critique. Please inform yourself about species dysphoria. It’s a mental illness. It can’t be cured but praising it can make stuff a lot worse.
Where are your sources? Do you have any sources on species dysphoria causing anyone to kill themselves?
Your “critique” is a thinly-veiled attempt at making our community look like a bunch of suicidal idiots. Maybe if you actually bothered to learn about our beliefs and our community you mind would change.
Personally, I just want you to fuck off and pretend you’d never heard of us in the first place, since it’s clear you don’t want to better your already shitty behavior.
@youredoingkinwrong You guy’s are supporting dangerous activetys by praising mentally ill people for their illness. Maybe you take off your pink glasses and take a look at reality. You can look up the illness on goggle if you really wanted to know about this illness. Not every critique is positive. I have a right to express my opinion. If you misunderstand this it’s your problem.
How in the sweet name of the Force is anyone supporting this in the otherkin community? Are you seriously that fucking blind that you can’t even understand the difference between “I was a bird in a past life and sometimes like to whistle to connect with that life” and “I’m literally a bird and jumping out of the window will finally reunite me with the body I deserve” ??
Let me tell you something, you dense fucking idiot.
We’re all human. We all live human lives, in human bodies, with human relationships and human worries and human everything. We, on a physical level, are completely human. No one’s debating this. We all know this.
Species dysphoria is not looked upon as something someone should embrace. Species dysphoria is bad. If someone expresses wishing to kill themselves over such a thing, we react and tell that person to look for help. Suffering alone will not help anyone.
I could look up this illness on google. But it’s unrelated to being otherkin, especially since not all otherkin have species dysphoria in the first place. Oh, and you’re the one making the claim that we all have it and everyone who has it is going to kill themselves because they don’t know any better, those poor mentally ill souls : ( – so it’s up to you to prove it to me.
Go on, I’m fucking waiting.
You have a right to express your opinion. You have a right to spread horribly idiotic misinformation. You have a right to draw art of a horrible thing and then you also have the right to tell us otherkin that we’re mentally ill and need to seek help for something not all of us even have. Yeah, you have that right.
But I have the right to tell you that you’re a fucking moron who’s doing something incredibly fucked up.
There is a difference between free speech and verbal abuse/harassment. So calling me a “fucking moron” is not an opinion it’s an insult. You didn’t get any point of my artpiece. I am not generalizing otherkin. I am critisizing your community for praising mentally ill people for their illness. Not every otherkin is mentally ill but some are. I know you are really angry right now and i understand your anger but the world isn’t just fun and games. The truth sometimes hurts even if the tumblr community is good at sugarcoating everything negative.
Actually, me thinking that you are a fucking moron is an opinion, one that you chose to let hurt your feelings. I’m not the one writing about something I don’t know anything about, kiddo.
You are generalizing our community. You are saying we celebrate mental illness for their illness. That is literally what your post says. My world isn’t fun and games, certainly, and I don’t consider my spiritual beliefs to be ‘fun and games’, you ignorant piece of shit.
This is not “the truth”. This is “you not liking spiritual and/or psychological beliefs that are different from your own and making art about it and trying to pass it off as some kind of shitty commentary on how crazy those weird otherkin are”.
You don’t understand my anger. You are saying that you to do try and pacify me so I won’t keep calling you a fucking moron. Well guess what? It didn’t work, and you’re still a fucking moron.
Please calm down. You make a fool out of yourself now. I can sense how pissed you are. You completly misunderstood what i ment in my drawing. This is getting nowhere. Also insulting people is a clear sign of being out of arguments. It’s pathetic.
No, I don’t think I will calm down. Clearly I’m not the one making a fool out of myself, since I can still manage to tell you why your work is shit from an objective standpoint and still be mad about it.
How could I have misunderstood anything in your drawing? It’s clear what you mean. “Otherkin are crazy, they celebrate mental illness and encourage people to kill themselves”. That’s what you mean. That’s what your art says.
I am insulting you while arguing with you. It’s not that difficult. Really, if that’s the only thing you can think off to try and get me off of your back then maybe you should have thought twice about posting something like this in the first place, huh?
You’re clearly too stupid to even try to understand where I’m coming from. You clearly don’t want to see that your art is fucking harmful. Since you’re an idiot, and I really try not to lose my temper on this blog too often, I’m cutting this conversation off here unless you can figure out some other dumb excuse to justify your disgusting claim that otherkin celebrate and enjoy suicidal fucking tendencies.
Get fucked.
Have a nice day.
