1. 99% of Destiel posts, or let’s just call it posts about Dean and Cas, that I see on my dash are literally quoting canon from the show. We tag it in the Supernatural tag because it’s in the show and this is canon. It’s also tagged Destiel most of the time for your sensitive tastes to blacklist and for people who like it to see. Simple.
2. Destiel as a fanonship is even quoted in the show. So is Wincest. I blacklist Wincest because I don’t want to see it on my dash, if someone tags Supernatural and Wincest as they’re more than allowed to do, that’s fine and I won’t police them. I blacklist it to avoid it where possible and this mostly works. Blacklist Destiel and Deancas. It’s not hard. About 99% again of Destiel posts I see are tagged as Destiel, even more to the point totally canon ones are often tagged Destiel so that people so sensitive to any kind of Dean and Cas interaction can avoid it even when it’s canon. I mean at this point it’s like getting angry about Han Solo Leia content at the end of the second movie, jeez. It’s there. Deal with it.
3. When the occasional badly or untagged tagged Wincest crosses my dash you know what I do? I scroll by. Because I’m not an entitled asshole.
4. You follow a bunch of major nasty Bronlies who constantly post hate about various cast and family members. Surely that’s way more horrid than a very few badly tagged shipping posts or actual canon from the show you love enough to blog about.
TL;DR: Destiel as a fanon ship is canon on the show so can absolutely be tagged with both Supernatural and Destiel tags. It’s up to you to blacklist what you personally don’t want to see. If there’s an element of canon you don’t like, that’s not the shows fault or the fault of the fans who do like it, or their problem if you have a hissy fit over it.
As well as this posts that are untagged Destiel but show Dean and Cas canon content from the show are more than allowed to do so as that is canon Dean Winchester and Castiel content. It is tagged accordingly with their character and general spn tags.
Move on. Grow up.
Lmao, the OP mispelled “don’t make me look at all of these canon gifsets from the show of them because I don’t like their relationship! I shouldn’t HAVE to blacklist it! Just nobody is allowed to talk about this part of Supernatural in Supernatural fandom!”
Me, a contrary bitch in the tags:
Y’all think Destiel is canon? Have you ever seen the show? What is “canon” about it? Wincest, in a platonic capacity is canon. It’s been canon since day one, and is more canon than Destiel. I have blacklisted Destiel, and go into the Supernatural tag and half of it is tagged as Destiel, which is shouldn’t be. Some Wincest fans might not tag it appropriatley, but theres a lot less of it in the main Supernatural tag, than there is Wincest. Neither ship should be on the main page tag. Just because Dean and Cas interact means its Destiel either, that’s just desperation.
Also those “nasty people” i follow are actually very sweet! They tend to only hate Misha and his crazy antics, and his character, Cas, because they, and I, all think he’s been used up. None of us were crazy about a Wayward spinoff as well.
Yeah, gosh, gif sets of Dean and Cas are just totally CGI and not from the show, fam. We have master level wizards in our pool over here. Some people *do* just use the portmanteau as DeanCas engaging. But if you think someone who spits incorrect generationalist and anti-actor vitriol is just a smolsweetbean, you already have a perception problem to begin with.
I’m not saying they’re CGI, im saying a lot of times, those interactions are taken out of context and made into something they’re not. Dean and Cas are friends. They won’t turn into anything more on the show, because thats not what the show is about. I get that some people don’t agree with the people i called sweet, but they have an opinion, that i happen to agree with, but thats a whole other thing.
I made this post originally because i was tired of seeing tons of gray boxes in the Supernatural tags, with what I blacklisted. I just wanted to see stuff pertaining to Supernatural, without having a certain ship shoved in my face. I also see it in the Sam Winchester tag, which I shouldn’t. (My b for tagging this in the destiel tag as well!). Sorry for voicing an opinion y’all!
“Rahhhhh you can only discuss actual scenes from the show under my approval of correct interpretation, even contrary to oft-times author endorsed discussion context and application because I, random pissy fan on Tumblr, doth declare it’s not what the show is about!” Nah fam. Cry all you want. People can discuss how they interpret the show however they want, with canon content from the show, and reasonable extrapolations of the content, in any big public tag for the show as long as it’s not some rapey bullshit. Take your tears somewhere else.
Lmao this person is actually complaining about blacklisting working and people enjoying a ship on TUMBLR, I can’t even.
Like, aside from this blatant disregard for common decency and politess for a fandom space shared between all of us who like different things, my dude, if it’s just so rampant that you’re seeing it all the time because it’s so popular and people like it so much, plus the canon stuff is canon so doesn’t have to be tagged as the ship for blacklisting, meanwhile whinging that we “make it into something it’s not” while… canon.
Plus the writers literally point out that it’s romantic by saying things like “Destiel isn’t canon?!” and the showrunner and number one writer purposefully and blatantly paralleling their interactions to multiple canon couples on the show, most recently in the last friggin episode…
There might be something to it 😂
Whinging about people enjoying it and tagging it accordingly so you can blacklist and this blacklisting is working is like whinging about people being happy that Sam is embracing being the leader and letting go of his Lucifer guilt or that Dean is letting more of his true self out and admitting he loves Disney movies and putting it in the show’s tag.
There’s a difference between being annoyed with people badly tagging stuff that is triggering or problematic so that it appears on your dash and someone just being butthurt that something positive, by it’s definition about love, loved by many fans and waved at by the writers as being done on purpose … *exists*.
Update with the latest: they’ve now descended into classic bronly bs territory with both “Dean is straight because Jensen said so” and “Megstiel is better than Destiel”. Kudos mate. You’ve nearly hit the bullshit jackpot, I’m just waiting for “it’s just pandering” and “it’s just a joke” to turn up now 😆
Disregarding so much canon, eg. Dean / Crowley subtext, disregarding Dabb himself taking line for line DeanCas for his starcrossed lovers David and Violet, disregarding second in command Bobo using every single trope and line he could from DeanCas history for Claire / Kaia who are confirmed as romantic.
TL;DR their argument is “forget canon, Dean is straight”.
Sure, Jan.
Okay i have to get in on this because, literally
every single destiel post that was in the supernatural tag was either a gifset from the show, that happens to be called supernatural, or a post about the characters in general
But I have, by all means, never seen a post that was about destiel that was tagged supernatural and not destiel. Every post that has the spn tag also has the destiel tag.
Now I can telepathically tell that you’re gonna ask why would they tag it supernatural too destiel is enough isnt it,
1. well, bitch, its a ship from the show. These are characters from that show. We are still fans of Supernatural first. We are a subfandom. Hell, tumblr mashes destiel and spn together in the trending tap all the time. You dont see a johnlock post thats not tagged bbc sherlock. You dont even see a disney movie not tagged disney anymore.
2. There’s people that follow some mixed blogs that dont wanna see supernatural at all and they blacklist the general tag, like decent human beings do, so we help them by tagging our shit accordingly.
We help you too by tagging it destiel on the side but I guess its too much to ask for people to blacklist even tho its an official feature by now. I went out of my way to blacklist wincest and i still see wincest smut every week. Do I complain? Fuck no. So you dont get to do that either.
Tumblr is 17+ but some of you act like you’re typing with a pacifier and your diapers in a twist.
@foodiestiel You are so right! I’ve had a couple Tumblrs before this one that I have deleted because I couldn’t believe how many assholes and negative people I find on here. I am hoping to stay on Tumblr this time. But sometimes the amount of assholes on here is overwhelming.
isnt it just.. you know… sad? you could have fuun. you could be haapy.
but insteaad, you choose to be a grandpa gone toddler waving your cussword shaped rattle to the happy people outside of your house from your rusted cobwebbed window.
i get it youre too stubborn to admit you can clean your window and let the light and sunshine in but you cant keep denying that a rainbow exists because you have never seen one. thats just stupid.
Also dont talk about misha like that ill fight you
“Tumblr is 17+ but some of you act like you’re typing with a pacifier and your diapers in a twist. “
This.
I’m sure it’s not the all of us destiel fans because assholes and extreme fans are everywhere, but I never seen a destiel shipper being disrispectful and nasty or straight up hateful to the point of insulting towards y’all haters.
The Wincest thing
I see it.
I don’t like it.
I. SCROLL. PAST. IT.
Y’all destiel/Misha/ Cass haters are so butthurt I swear .
Also OP:
“Also those “nasty people” i follow are actually very sweet! They tend to only hate Misha and his crazy antics, and his character, Cas, because they, and I, all think he’s been used up. None of us were crazy about a Wayward spinoff as well. “
“Sweet people” paired with “they tend to only hate”
lol are you serious?
Wow i go to work for 5+ hours and y’all are still here! I’ve given up on this nonsense, so have fun debating with each other about how horrible of a person I am or whatever. I straight up don’t have time for this. Thanks for the notes on this post! This one is going straight to the top!!! Night all!
lmao debating
yeah i mean if imaginary internet currency makes you feel better, whatever
we’ll be over here laughing about destiel being the minority but also being the majority of spn posts
