So, if my recent posts are anything to go by, I suffered a bit of a relapse, and for that, I apologize. What I won’t apologize for is something I call Anarcho-Weaverism. See, I believe in restorative/rehabilitative justice, not just in fictional media, but in life as well, but the real life stuff is for another time in another space. I’m for going to lie to ANY of you people, She-Ra SAVED me. But she also poisoned me. This is the main reason I created Kazari, because at this point, I truly believe that nobody is beyond redemption! I believe Shadow Weaver and Catra BOTH deserved better, real ACTUAL redemptions. You people think I hate Catra. You think I hate She-Ra, I don’t hate She-Ra, I LOVE SHE-RA, and I love Catra too. If I hated She-Ra, I’d be in the Avatar Fandom, or Voltron, or Sonic, or my comfort show, KIPO, much happier. Y’all would be rid of the evil Maxx Phoenix. I recognize when things suck, and I want things to be BETTER, not just for me, but for EVERYBODY. I WANT EVERYONE TO ENJOY THIS! I WANT EVERYONE LIKE WHAT THEY SEE! I am an aspiring writer, so the Kazari series is a no brainer. I’m stuck in this godforsaken fandom until I complete the first story, so in the meantime, I’m gonna do what I can, and what I KNOW will make this fandom better! Anarcho-Weaverism is about standing standing up for what you believe in, and it’s about standing up for those who are being persecuted, like Captain Konami and Joye Everette, just to name a few! (Sidenote- You should really watch her My Salt on Shadow Weaver’s Arc playlist, she is the best of us) My friend, Luna, who you may remember from her work on Mermay, referred to me as the “Fandom Bad Boy”, and while that has a nice ring to it, it’s more accurate to call me the Fandom’s Renegade. Hell, you could say Anarcho-Weaverism is my own Great Rebellion. In this life, I wanna be the voice of the voiceless, no matter how small that may be. I don’t wanna see Shadow Weaver and Hordak stans being bullied online, I don’t wanna see people being baselessly accused of being abuse apologists (you know who you are!) I don’t wanna see the fandom for a show I like, being CONSISTENTLY intellectually outclassed by LILY ORCHARD (Yeah, I am aware of the skeletons in Lily’s closet, but she is ABSOLUTLY RIGHT to call Catradora “Gay Reylo or Gaylo”, because I know for a FACT that you wouldn’t be drooling over Catradora if it were a heterosexual ship! Congratulations Nate Stevenson, in all of your nonexistent wisdom, you somehow managed to make a worse love-story then Twilight and 50 Shades COMBINED)! I sure as hell don’t wanna see fanfics about Shadow Weaver being a sexual predator. I want this fandom to be better! So much better! And if I have to be that agent of change, so be it. Anyways, I’ll see y’all in a couple months. I finally complete Chapter 5 on A03 and Wattpad and if you wanna fight me, my Discord handle is MaxxPhoenix#2745.

There is no ill intend here. But as a trans person, I can attest to how important it is not to deadname. Ideally, this Sub should shut down entirely.

Can someone tell me why Shadow Weaver doesn't get a redemption arc and Catra does? Catra literally did everything Shads did and worst! So why? It makes no sense.

You know what really grinds my gears? It's these She-Ra fics where the Shadow Weaver is flanderized into being a complete monster. Yeah, I get it, she was canonically an asshole, but seriously, some of these are way over the top. Hell, one time, I came across a fic in which Shadow Weaver does unspeakable things to Adora. Luckily I decided not to read it since I like my sanity intact. The point is, can we please be more measured with our depictions of Shadow Weaver. We all know she's not a monster, just someone who did bad things and has a lot of inner demons
