tumblr strikes again
before i start, this is a pretty popular tumblr blog so PLEASE don't send any hate if you recognize their post format.
basically, it's a blog dedicated to posting peoples' problems with their fandom, but they've posted multiple submissions like this that are just fakeclaiming people. don't entirely see how this is a fandom problem, but hey, whatever gets your blog attention I guess...
first of all, the otherkin thing. the way we see species in a non-scientific context is very subjective. if you truly believe an otherkin is human, i guess i can't change your mind, but don't just come out and say it especially since many otherkin have species dysphoria. it's just a dick move. if someone intentionally called me (a ghost headmate) "alive" on purpose, they're getting blocked.
second, everyone who has DID is faking but also they're taking away resources? if everyone with DID is faking, who exactly are they taking resources from? regardless, anyone who fakes a mental disorder is struggling in some way. no one healthy wants to pretend to be miserable. people with milder mental illnesses aren't taking away resources from people with more severe mental illness for seeking treatment or just existing.
"just because you have OCs/fictional characters (read: headmates) doesn't make you mentally ill" CORRECT! however, if you do have sentient beings (plural) in your head that does kinda make you a system. not necessarily a disordered one, but a system. either way, most non-disordered systems in my experience are mentally ill in other ways so you're basically fakeclaiming the mental disorders they actually have.
also, i'm assuming by "OCs" they mean brainmades, not OC fictives... so I guess systems that aren't entirely factives don't exist guys ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ guess i'm not real then/s
