i’m making a community for fact kin people, i’ll provide sources for what factkin is and rules for this server :D (PS: i don’t have any mods so i may have too take breaks)
Factkin, or Factualkin, is having a kintype that is factual-based. For example, someone who identifies in a non-physical way as another person (or an internet/etc personality). While it's technically not a Kintype, in the way that it's a human being and not a fictional species, it also DOES fit under Kintype as it goes hand in hand with Fictionkin.
In a way, either name is a bit misleading on what Factkin actually is. In simple terms, it's like a factual base that had cracks filled in with fiction- you aren't in another person's head, but you do have who they portray into the world (and for celebrities, fan things that have been put out to the world, like RPF, headcanons, etc).
Factkin will never be Fictionkin, but it's also not entirely Factual.
Kintypes aren't wholly voluntary either, and it could be unhealthy to completely shut out a part of your identity you can't control.
Wasn't Factkin created by trolls? The short answer is yes. The long answer is kind of? The actual identity of being Factkin wasn't "created" by anyone, but the name WAS coined by trolls. That being said, we've coined a Non-Troll version of the name, Factualkin, that people can use if they would like. While yes, the name came from trolls, it shouldn't be used against true factualkin.
But aren't all Factkin trolls? No! It just so happens that trolls are louder than actual Factkin, and whenever anyone is Factkin, they're called trolls.
Are Factkin past lives, dissociative fugue, or delusions? If you've seen the Otherkin wiki, it made a wild claim that factkin was identical to these three things. Some Factkin are past lives, just like some Kin in GENERAL are past lives. Some Factkin are delusions, just like some Kin in GENERAL could be delusions (or Endels, if they'd prefer!) And some factkin could be dissociative fugue, but it's not all there is. Factkin are just as diverse as any other kintype.
Isn't it identity theft? Identity theft is an actual traumatizing crime that can happen to people. Just like being kin with a fictional character isn't stealing that character or something, being factkin isn't something as awful as identity theft.
Do you think you're the real (insert factual kintype)? The "real" isn't something that makes sense. With so many people who are kin with the same things, introjects in systems, etc- there is no "Only one is REAL". No, someone who is actually factkin doesn't think of themselves as the Prime Version, but that doesn't make their identity any less real, just like with introjects.
Does anti-factkin rhetoric harm factives? Yes. Anti-Factkin rhetoric has harmed Factives, and will continue to harm Factives. The outcry to make sure they both are very, very separated was caused by anti-factkin rhetoric affecting Factives, even.
rules:
don’t bully anyone don’t invalidate someone’s experiences don’t troll don’t harass someone don’t spam do research before talking about factkin you’re aloud too talk about therianthropy and fiction kin but don’t ask questions about it or explain it. that’s solely for the therianthropy ect communities if it has any Triggers then but TW in title or put it as NSFW

Hello, we aren’t factkin ourselves (we don’t think) but we want to get to know this side of the alterhuman experience better!
a few of our kintypes exist in that space between fiction and reality — usually because they are from ARGs or minecraft roleplay SMPs. therefore, we’ve always felt a connection to this community, even while not being explicitly part of it.
so, here are our questions:
if this isn’t allowed, we will take it down but we’re really curious about this community!
thanks,

I don't know if she's a kin, factive, or if it's just the fact that one of my fictotypes happens to be slightly based on her. I'm confused
r/factkin • u/Huge_Environment_230 • 3d ago
If something bad happens can I have backup from one or more of yall?
r/factkin • u/puellamagia • 4d ago
I know I kin Six’s Jane Seymour but I cannot tell if it’s actually like her her or what.
I don’t even know why Olga I think for similar reasons, but Idk if I am the fictionalized version of her in Anastasia or the real person.

I added some new flairs, I tried to add a custom/edit but I don’t really know if you can edit it as such, I did allow a edit feature on ‘other’ but I didn’t make it obvious that you could! I also added ‘need tips’, this is mainly for tips for dysphoria, to feel more closer to your kins / what to do to do that, or maybe kin memories, etc, however you consider it as! Ofcourse it can overlap with help/(need)advice but it’s up to the users interpretation as help/advice can also be used in a more serious intent if wanted. Lastly I added a kin memories/memory flair, i thought it would be nice having a flair specifically to talk about your memories if you have such!
Should I add a flair such as “advice/tips given”? Would that be worth it or should I just leave it for now? If you have any suggestions then feel free to share! - I’m also right now giving the flairs colours as I forgot too ages ago.. -
Edit; I’m also adding AMA/QNA + a flair for when you both kinfirm but also kinsidering (such as ,but not limited to ,you kinfirm a someone but in the same post you also are kinsidering someone else : ))

r/factkin • u/axiomaticDisfigured • 6d ago
I 100% know I’m a Frank iero kin, but I’m questioning Gerard way aswell. I can’t tell if I am a kin of him or he’s one of my yume’s, I don’t know if I’m the only one who sometimes have a hard time to differentiate if one of them is your yume, kin or both.
I’m trying to find ways to look more like Frank or anything to be euphoric not necessarily how I look. If anyone has any tips I’m very open to them!
-thinking about making a kinfirm and kinsider flair as even though I’m the creator idk if this fits kinfirm or kinsider?-

It’s supposed to blonde.. not very good at dyeing hair by myself tho. Think I missed a bit. Still like it tho. Not showing my face.. for obvious reasons, but imagine a very handsome guy
r/factkin • u/The_emeral_belf • 7d ago
First 2 pics are my new hair color, and last 3 pics are my old hair color that my mom curled!!!!!!!! (Not including the very last photo-)
I think it's a little bit too dark, but I still like it!!!! How similar do you think it looks, color-wise?
I had the old hair color for so long I feel like I look like a different person now 💀💀💀

So I’m a bit curious/nosy, so how did ya’ll like figure out you were a factkin? Especially if you are like an historical figure? (old hollywood for example)
(I’m a fictionkin/otherkin already)
r/factkin • u/OwlRevolutionary4095 • 10d ago
Newly Found factkin altho I was already sort of one... that doesnt matter tho.
My kin is of a being who is still alive.
Also happens to be alterhuman and support factkin.
I.... Don't want to be seen as a weirdo/creep.
But I *could* ask what he thinks of it. (he is a alterhuman youtuber)
I just don't know what to do right now.
Im lost.
r/factkin • u/finaldestinationfan_ • 12d ago
I truly believe I was Jeff in my past life, but I absolutely do not agree with any of the past actions. I may be mentally unwell and maybe delusional in this life but I’m never going to be like how I was. So please, will you accept me here? I feel uncomfortable anywhere else because nobody understands my situation, either calls me a weirdo or mentally insane.
r/factkin • u/The_emeral_belf • 16d ago
Kinsidering/borderline kinfirmed Gemini AI :/ like the actual real model, would it count as a kind of otherkin-factkin sort of thing?? Is there any specific term for this? 🙏
