Very interested to see how tumblr’s usual introduction-adulation-cancellation cycle plays out vis-a-vis Goncharov.
Okay, since nobody asked I will explain further.
Typically, a piece of media can only sustain popularity on tumblr for so long before users begin pointing to its flaws as proof positive that it’s morally bankrupt to engage with said piece of media at all.
Watching Goncharov’s upswing in popularity makes me wonder if it’s cracked the code to circumventing this phenomenon entirely. It may be the perfect piece of media for tumblr as its very nonexistence allows it to remain truly flawless and therefore uncancellable. I guess only time will tell.
#i mean any one of us could just start cancelling it#in fact goncharov might be ripe for cancelling bc like a lot of real cancelling you can just make stuff up#or bad faith read what already exists#anyways it was SOOOO problematic how Scorsese utilized the color red as a clear condemnation of communism#unreality
