h.otd is really the only fandom where you'll have people calling characters "narcissists" for making choices with their bodily autonomy that don't entirely align with what society demands of them

#᯽ ooc. ⊱ ── ❝ 𝘖𝘩 𝘯𝘰 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘔𝘢𝘳𝘪. ❞#the amount of insane shit I have seen today besties #I need to scream in the tags for a minute so look away if you don't wanna see fandom negativity #(not about the rpc but about a particular fandom on a broader scale)#I gotta be careful liking art or anything from this fandom bc one minute I'll like a piece of art about characters from the show #and then suddenly I have the most batshit misogynistic insane bullshit takes I have ever seen in my fyp #this is part of why I side eye the whole team vs team approach because while it can be fun #as long as we are all in collective agreement to be mature and not fucking weird about shit #this fandom as a whole cannot fucking behave when it comes to women and I say that with my full chest #and you will see people justifying misogyny and homophobia and femicide and all kinds of vile things #to woobify their favorite Bad Boys or project onto the person the fandom has decided is suddenly the most tragic lesbian in the world #bc people are obsessed with proving their favs are objectively right somehow (especially when they're NOT)#you don't . . . have to justify every single thing a character does?? to validate the fact that you like them?????#if you don't have the mental maturity to accept that characters in this fandom often do some pretty fucked up things with no justification #you . . . don't need to engage with this fandom. at all.#if you can't admit 'oh this thing my fav did was super fucked. they were wrong for that but I still like them'#this is not the fandom for you #bc you will blink and suddenly you are spewing violent misogyny YOURSELF to defend A FICTIONAL FUCKING CHARACTER #defending r*pe culture. defending misogyny. defending homophobia.#saying women in the story should kiss up to the patriarchy and uphold it because 'it's the right thing to do as a woman'#fuck outta here #also saying 'it's right because that's just how things are in this world' is missing the point entirely #YOU are not a fictional character living in this world. YOU are the reader who is supposed to judge this BY YOUR OWN MORALS #also the amount of people verbally attacking a black actress for speaking out for her character?? defending her character????#to the point where the show had to issue a fucking statement on it????#lot of people suddenly so comfortable being racist pieces of shit all over some fictional white boys #this is why I try not to engage with h.otd side of the fandom (rpc excluded) as a whole #bc the amount of nasty behavior is truly disproportionate #I'll probably delete this soon I just saw someone pull the 'narcissist' card #and saw another person say some racist shit about b.ethany a.ntonia again and I'm pissed about it
