I'm sorry but saying "don't write dark or taboo fiction or at least keep it private because it might trigger someone or someone might get off to it." is exactly like saying "don't talk about the abuse you suffered because it might trigger someone or someone might get off to it."
It is the exact same thing. Telling someone they aren't allowed to talk about their own lived experience because some random stranger might be triggered, made uncomfortable, or even aroused by it is unbelievably fucking disgusting.
Whether someone is writing dark/taboo fiction to cope or not is 100% irrelevant because someone else's trauma is not your business, and you can't know.
You shouldn't tell a victim to never talk about their trauma, so you shouldn't tell people what they can and cannot write about, because at the end of the day, you don't know and it's not your business. Block and mute things/people you don't want to see, and move the fuck on with your life.
so much care put into housing this aging spider. why are my eyes wet

"dni if you engage with irredeemable media! dni to kill a mockingbird stans" ok well CLEARLY you have never read to kill a mockingbird if you think it's irredeemable media and also having a book that was published in 1960 on your dni stan list is kinda ridiculous actually
They discovered a neat hack. It lets them accuse people of a crime so bad that reasonable people are reluctant to try to defend the accused. It also allows them to imagine the most extreme punishments on the accused. Also, the emotional response of revulsion makes you easy to be manipulated by people who want you to focus your energy on whatever you're disgusted by, whether real or not.
It also means they never have to question the morality of their behavior since the "them" they are targeting are so depraved it justifies almost any actions to stop them.
From a post on reddit about why certain people "are obsessed with pedos". I felt this was relevant here.
The original context was in relation to Q anon, but it's the exact same behavior that we see from antishippers.
Look at the pure sadness in Nina's face after her hands crashed and she crushed the bird out of her hand qAq
Me: hey so actually if real victims of incest, rape, grooming, ect tell you its really dehumanising to be told we're no different to literal 2D characters who do not exist, maybe you should listen
Antis: fucking kill yourself you ugly little pedo defender stop jacking off to little kids and wanting to fuck your dad
I've seen a surge of antis calling themselves punk/alt, and I just wanna make this clear:
Book-burning conservatives are not punk, sorry... :/
