Sorry if this post looks a bit odd. This is my first time writing a thread starter on a fandom (and some of it's weirdos) and I rather not make this look like those silly tumblr call out posts and instead make it about the weird shit happening on tumblr (and it's fansites if it's reccomended).
Transformers has been around for about 30 years now, And within these 30 years, the demographics have changed and every fandom has their crazies.
The most popular Transformers related media on tumblr is the IDW comic book series called "More than Meets the Eye", which started in 2012 and is currently ongoing. This comic is more progressive than previous ones because it officially brought in the first "gay" robot couple.
After it was announced, hordes and hordes of SJWs, Transtrenders and others jumped on board the transformers bandwagon, shitting up the general transformers tags (#MTMTE and a fanmade #maccadam tag). Adding in shitty headcanons like "everybody is black and trans uwu", "since they have no gender, all of them are female, fuck you cis men!" and of course, petty Social justice drama like debating about an alien robot's sex and gender, and it's sexuality.
Shitstorms come and go, but a lot of them are on dumb shit. One of these is this month's ongoing shitstorm, was mostly started by the Otherkin side of the fandom, who until last week, I didn't know existed.
Most of these are, of course, special snowflakes who use the URL style like all of our other special snowflakes (like Vade and Spergtrap): "[autistic/neurological disorder/sexuality/gender] then [character name]" URLs, which makes them easy to ignore.
Here's a small list of the common shitposters in the Transformers/MTMTE fandom, but as the drama keeps popping up, it's probably gonna get bigger as I try to find more information to write up, but here are the current lolcows (in my opinion) who started this mess, and are acting lulzy about it compared to the accused 'pedophile' artists.
All of this drama, over sensitive teenagers getting pissed off at a Russian and Japanese artist drawing millions of years old robots in school uniforms.

Autisticsoldier is an otherkin who indentifies as the Soldier from TF2, and an ocean. (how the hell do you identify with an ocean?) She's an attention whore with violent tendencies (read: 'OW THE EDGE' angry posts) and sends death threats to artists because they got their panties in a twist over an image of a robot in a seifuku. Her rage posts remind me of good ol' vadykins when we first saw her, and im not surprised that she was indeed friends with Vade!:

AutisticRodimus is another otherkin who believes that they're two giant robots and that friend interactions on tumblr are triggering. No really.
Sideswype is an edgy 18 year old girl who believes the easiest way to change things and be progressive is to repetitively spam the that offended them like a child [ Link to the public tumblr tag. NSFW content warning, the tag is a mess], and cry about how much it 'hurts'.
bpdbones is an otherkin who believes that they're Ratchet from the MTMTE comic. Following along with Autisticsoldier and Sideswype, they take their kin super seriously guis! they absolutley believe that he is the comic's medic, that they even apologized for his kin's actions in the current comic book series.
The biggest (and by biggest, I mean in popularity) is Skymachine. (powerword: Amara).
Amara, is your typical sjw. She's 18 year old furfag from suburban america who's an art student and to take part in the tumblr oppression Olympics by saying that she's an otherkin of Sideswipe from the new kids show for pity points and even made a 'kin' blog. ( http://sidesxwipe.tumblr.com/ )
Due to her popularity on drawing furry and robot porn, she has an army of asslickers who will praise her 24/7 everytime she makes a whiny post. She also hates, hates criticism on her kinks and art, but finds it alright in trashing others for their weird kinks and vagueblogging about them. (were talking about a furry here who enjoys fat/force feeding furry porn.)
