I think people were likely irritated before they even opened the thread, just because the word “shippers” was in the title. Just looking at the title alone, it reads like, “CaptainSwan shippers are gross,” not, “CaptainSwan is gross and I think it’s weird to ship them,” which is obviously the point you were trying to make, which is fair enough because you’re entitled to have that opinion of CaptainSwan. I think had the word “shippers” not been in the thread title, people wouldn’t have gotten so riled up. When you think someone is saying YOU personally are gross, then of course that’s gonna immediately put you on the defensive, no matter the situation.
I can’t believe how dedicated the fans are to this show. I mean, for people to get that riled up and try to defend their ‘ship’, then that means that the directors/writers/cast are doing a terrific job. I’ll admit, I’m a decicated CS ‘shipper’ but I’m more than open to the opinions of others who don’t have the same views as me – it makes things interesting, and makes you realise things that you hadn’t noticed before. As long as people are polite and respectful, I see no problem with it.
As for the title, I hadn’t even thought of the title like that before it was mentioned. When I read it, my first thought was that something happened that was bad for CS (then I gave a little sigh of relief).
I guess you can’t blame people for wanting to defend their ‘ship’, but when it turns nasty, I think you have to stop and put your ‘shipping’ mind aside and think about what you’re saying. After all it is just a TV show – no matter how amazing it is. 🙂
