ATTENTION HOMESTUCK FANDOM!
Some drama has been ongoing with my girlfriend, some serious drama that I’m only finding out is much worse than I thought and I really need to get the word out.
Putting this under a read more.
oh my fucking god…
Jesus fucking christ.
What the fuck is it about the Homestuck fandom that draws some of the shittiest people to it? What the actual fuck? I enjoy Homestuck and all, but FUCKING HELL, WHAT IS WRONG WITH SOME PEOPLE? IT IS NEVER OKAY TO TREAT SOMEONE LIKE THIS. Not to mention the racist attacks from Homestuck fans toward people I follow! And what causes this behavior? Seriously? Is it that you are all fucking spoiled, white PRETEENS, power-drunk on anonymity? Is is because the fandom is so huge that there are so many shitbags? Am I unaware of other fandoms that have ever been this numerous and this shitty? I don't know. IT SEEMS AWFULLY FISHY TO ME. Now, no, not every person who likes Homestuck is a shitty person. Liking it does not make you bad. HOWEVER, THERE SEEMS TO BE A REAL PROBLEM HERE THAT NEEDS ADDRESSING. And if anyone in this fandom sees shit like this happening, please do something about it!
Look-- If someone does not like something you like, LEAVE THEM ALONE. If someone says something you like is problematic (racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, etc), IT PROBABLY IS. MOST THINGS ARE. You can like something for its good qualities AND realize that it has problems! It is important to recognize it when it does! Respect other people's right to not like something because of those problems, and again, LEAVE THEM ALONE. Harassing someone, assaulting them, and making death threats because they don't agree with you about a fucking STORY? Again, I ask, WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?
I hope the OP and all the people being targeted find some peace and relief from this crap. I hope they take care of themselves. I wish them nothing but good things. No one deserves to be treated this way, and certainly not over something so absurd!
I don't even know what... I don't even.
