im usually a really positive account but i really need to blow off some steam rn, sorry. so now i will be listing off things that annoy me to death in this fandom. sorry guys, just skip this post if you're not interested.
1) Double Standards
Jesus Fucking Christ, both of the characters did the same thing and yet you call the other worse for that thing. Both characters did the same thing and yet you call the other better for doing the same thing. Stop it. I am so incredibly annoyed.
2) The Polarization
This isn't a C!Dream apologist vs C!Sam apologist, nor is it a C!Tubbo apologist vs C!Techno apologist. Not everything has to be a war all the time. Calm tf down. You can be an apologist for many characters even if they are enemies in the lore.
3) Black and White Mentality/Morality
Some of you genuinely do not fucking know what morally gray means. ALL of the characters are morally gray. They do good shit, they do bad shit. They believe in good shit, believe in bad shit. Why are y'all treating morally gray as if it meant "good" or something? Some shades are lighter than others, sure, but bro. Come on. Morally gray is morally gray. I can't with y'all.
Not only that but when someone critiques your fave, you immediately jump to thinking they're calling that character evil. Like, bitch, no. This fandom will be the death of me istg.
4) No Proper Fandom Etiquette
JESUS CHRIST JUST VAGUEPOST INSTEAD OF REBLOGGING IT'S NOT THAT HARD. If you're on twt then subtweet instead of qrting them. Stop going into people's askboxes/curiouscats/dms and say stuff you know they won't appreciate.
I won't even get started how some of y'all treat c!dream introjects like shit. Hating a character? Absolutely fine. Calling a REAL PERSON horrible things and sending them borderline death threats? Not fine. Not fine at all.
5) The superiority complex of some of y'all mfs
This one is rare for other people to encounter, but I've had many interactions like these. You do not have moral highground. You do not have any highground. I don't have any highground either. We're all gay nerds on the same flat field trying to enjoy characters. Stop it. Get some help.
------ end ------
This is more of a rant which I don't think my followers were expecting,, so sorry about that. I'm just tired. I'll try to post more analysis posts soon but man does school hit hard.
Note that if this is the first dsmp fandom post you've seen, not all of them are like I've mentioned above. It's just my personal experience which doesn't really say much on the actual reality of it.
I wanna end this off with a positive note but that just seems really fake after all the shit I said. So, uh, I'll end it with a neutral note ig. Goodbye, have an okay day!
