The idea that fictionkin are somehow ‘violating copyright law’ has been making me laugh for nearly a decade.
Seriously, i made a bunch of *livejournal* icons with the joke on them.
I had no idea people have been making that lame accusation for so long lmao
anti-kin have got no chillThey really need new material. I’ve been parrying the same arguments since 2006. Its like man, do you really believe that? Is that really your best argument? Copyright infringement?
What the fuck is fictionkin though?
I want someone from the community to explain the concept to me before I call utter bullshit on it. You know, so no one can accuse me of strawmanning or of operating under a False Definition or smth.
Fictionkin are people who have the spiritual (or sometimes psychological) belief that their soul/existence originated in another world/universe that resembles a particular human fiction.
From my website, http://fictionkin.net/
What are fictionkin?
Fictionkin; (noun): A person who discovers that they have in some way inherited the soul/spirit/complete mentality of a fictional character, and the identity of that character is in some way mixed with their current human/earthly identity.
But how do you know?
Fictionkin have experiences and feelings that set them apart from the rest of the world, often even at a very young age. We experience homesickness, strange memories, physical dysphoria, phantom limbs, and many other things that set us apart from other humans.
What’s it like?
Being fictionkin is a lot like having been five. The personality you had when you were five influences who you are now. You still have some of the same hopes and dreams you have when you were five. You have your five year old self’s memories. Your five year old self is forever a part of you- maybe even a part of you that still comes forward sometimes. But its not everything you are.
How can that be possible?
Under multiverse theory it is impossible, literally impossible to think of an occurrence that has not, will not, and is not happening. The multiverse is simply too big. Everything has existed, exists, and always will exist.
