Okay, but what does any of this have to do with RWBY?

I wasn't the one who brought it up.

Seriously, while you're right in that this is a discussion thread for RWBY, just shitting on someone's ship with almost no reasons isn't discussion. Yes, White Rose is a bit problematic because of Weiss' actions towards Ruby at times, but for every "abusive"note And I fail to see anything actually abusive thing Weiss does to Ruby, Weiss does something else to show she cares.
A single abusive thing means that an infinite number of good things would not stop it from being an evil against human rights to ship it.

Weiss is a Tsundere, with emphasis on the Tsun.

And like most examples, her tsundereness does not have the right to be portrayed positively.

Shipping is the path to peace and unity for all peoples.

[up] x7 refusing help from allies just because they do things differently from you despite the fact that your own mode of operation is self destructive is not how one should act. She literally let her soul gem corrupt and literally did nothing to fix the problem. So kyoko may have started the mess , but sayaka kept it going long after it was no longer necessary up until her demise.

I wish I didn't.

This is a discussion forum. I am allowed to have negative opinions.

Yes, but when that negative opinion basically amounts to you saying that anyone who disagrees with you supports abusive relationships, you're probably drawing dangerously close to a line that shouldn't be crossed, and reevaluate how you post.

A single abusive thing means that an infinite number of good things would not stop it from being an evil against human rights to ship it.

Like this. While you're right about good deeds not undoing bad ones, the comparison and hyperbole in this statement is really something you probably should have thought about harder before commenting.

She literally let her soul gem corrupt and literally did nothing to fix the problem. So kyoko may have started the mess , but sayaka kept it going long after it was no longer necessary up until her demise.

Kyouko was never Sayaka's ally. Sayaka was imposing sanctions on Kyouko, which yes is exactly how decent people should act. Caring about it being self-destructive would mean she cared more about herself than about doing the right thing, which is inherently wrong If one is in the right, they literally should not be able to care less if it destroys them. To Sayaka, Kyouko was doing the equivalent of saying, "Every night, I am going to give you a chocolate. After you accept the chocolate, I am going to go out and rape a baby to death." No matter how much you want, no matter how much you need, no matter how much you would die of starvation otherwise, the correct response is to refuse. Had Sayaka accepted, Kyouko would haveseen it as proof that she was right, never have been redeemed and gone on killing other magical girls, causing the witches to overrun the population and destroy the world. Anyone who says that Sayaka should have accepted the Grief Seed is being incredibly short-sighted. Kyouko is not just someone Sayaka disagrees with. She goes out of her way to point out that she thinks Kyouko is worse than the witches, and she has a greater duty to fight and kill Kyouko than to kill witches and if she had a choice between the two, it would be better to kill Kyouko than a witch.

EDIT:

Like this. While you're right about good deeds not undoing bad ones, the comparison and hyperbole in this statement is really something you probably should have thought about harder before commenting.

There is no hyperbole. It is exactly what I believe and I literally blame people supporting such ships on the high incidence of abuse. I consider it effectively Hate Speech.

EDIT:

I mean, it is an abusive relationship, and they support it. It doesn't actually get any clearer.

Honestly, most of RWBY's ships are terrible anyway. The only relationship that was any good was Jaune x Pyrrha, because that one actually resulted in some good character growth for both parties. And the only ship besides Jaune x Pyrrha that actually amounts to more than Ship Tease and Shipping Goggles is Nora x Ren, which is boring because it's basically been the status quo for the characters since their introduction. Even the shenanigans at the end of season four was basically just "okay yeah, we're going to stop pretending they're not a couple", and I'll be surprised if it actually changes much of anything about their interaction with each other or anyone else.

Other than that, I can kinda see Yang x Blake, but you can just as easily see that as Platonic Life-Partners. Ruby x Weiss I don't see at all.

Really from Jupiter, but not an alien.

You really don't get why saying "If you disagree with me, you support abusive relationships, human rights violations, and hate speech" is getting criticism there's probably not an actual reason to discuss this with you.

Edit: That being said, I don't particularly care for most ships in this series, and White Rose has always baffled me for a number of reasons.

[up]Okay, okay, okay.....

Okay. Look. Could you....could you just not?

Iron Man would never call his penis Iron Wand. He would be way more creative with nicknames for it.

I wonder, will Yang end up with Neon? She loses one kitty but gains another!
