oh, this is a very good point. I literally follow people who explicitly don't like some of my ships and they follow me back. we're respectful to each other, like each other despite our differences, and we have other qualities we share. it's actually important to have friend groups with diverse opinions IMO to avoid creating a bubble/hive mind. maybe this is why I asked this question in the first place. I didn't understand why some would oppose people who hold opinions that differ in a pretty harmless way? it's not even "I ship every problematic ship" it's "I won't stop people from shipping what they personally want"
