Disappointed in this sub today

Earlier today a user made a pride post sharing their flag for their identity which got heavily downvoted simply because it included a kink flag on it. My vocal support for them was also downvoted, which broke my heart because they were very gracious for it. Off this sub it feels like I always have to justify my existence as a kinky ace so it hurts to see this on the sub. Also, historically kinks have been a big part of many queer people’s identities (Did you know the leather Pride flag was the second earliest Pride flag created only after the original rainbow flag?) so the downvotes we’re definitely unjustified.

I don’t know this user but if I were them I would definitely be disappointed in the reception, especially during Pride month of all times, when support should be paramount.

Edit: If you’re gonna come in here to kinkshame; don’t. It’s unwelcome in this community and frankly pathetic

Edit 2: Y’all… this post is marked NSFW for a reason. If you aren’t 18… don’t comment on this post. I’ve already unknowingly talked to minors on this post about which makes me feel gross and is not only rude to me and my boundaries, but unsafe for you. This should apply for ALL NSFW posts by the way

Edit 3: Just to get it out of the way, yeah I’m kinky. I’m ABDL (diapers) and not ashamed. Coming into my DMs to try and attack me over them or use them as a gotcha! Isn’t gonna work. Diapers or vore, ace kinksters are cool as hell
