The fandom version of what would not be welcomed by many.

fujoshis are just as bad as moe fans

Nobody is entitled to representation in media. Or to demand anything else from the creators thereof.

agreed

And thus the status quo remains the same in media.

But everybody's entitled to whine ineffectually on the internet, so here we the hell are.

Kinda agree with this; demanding creators produce diversity, if it ever leads to anything, will probably lead to something that's superficial at best. Instead of demanding media representation, people concerned should try supporting media created by who they want representation from and support initiatives that would encourage more [insert label here] creators.

The very existence of Disney fandom is creepy. Twenty-five years ago, Disney started a focused plan to create a brainwashed brand loyalty in generations of children. That first generation is now adults, and Disney fandom is proof that this plan worked perfectly.

Disney is an objectively evil company whose policies make the world a worse place, and if I see one more "Disney princesses (ALWAYS FUCKING PRINCESSES) reimagined as ______ because I'm so spunky and imaginative!" thing, I am going to start just screaming at people.

......... I really, really don't think you can call Disney "objectively evil," no matter how much you dislike it...

this seems hyperbolic, but i definitely agree it bothers me to see how far marketing can take a company especially at children.

tbh, major US tv and movie entertainment is kinda creepy considering that it's pretty much just eight companies.

Nice to see the Tea Party tinhatters have moved on to even more rediculous conspiracy theories after their victory to turn all women into human incubators.

The vitriol for Katrina (both on the show and in the fandom) is making me start to dislike Abbie. She's not in fact the most perfect person ever, and the fact that she's a problem between a married couple just makes me plain uncomfortable.

how is Abbie a problem, though?
Katrina has put enough secrets between her and her husband to be herself the problem it's not like you can blame Abbie for stuff she has nothing to do. If her husband develops a connection with Abbie it wouldn't be the latter's fault either if that becomes a problem for Katrina. He would be the one to blame.

Is she really a "problem" anywhere but in Ichabod/Katrina shippers' eyes? There's obvious tension and potential conflict of interest there, but everyone's trying very sensibly to negotiate it like civilized people, Abbie included.

I actually went online to try to find what you guys are talking about and I couldn't find any Katrina hate or any other kind of hate in the fandom. All I found was someone making nonsense complaints about how Ichabod treats Abbie but that was it.

I think it's possible that Dean Winchester could be bisexual (more siding with liking women than men though). He has knowledge of terminology used in the LGBT community, said things to others that could be taken in a homoerotic context (the only other main character who also does this is Crowley), and has been in homoerotic situations. I could see him coming across an old fling in an episode or mentioning it absentmindedly.

However, I don't see Dean/Castiel as canon. I don't even see the signs pointing towards it. I feel like I'm blind to this canon subtext people keep talking about. Either way, I don't ship it ever since Dean mentioned he thinks of Castiel as a brother.

Yeah, I liked their relationship in season 4-5, and I think there was potential at the time, but with the way things are now no way.

Destiel isn't canon, but "Dean and Cas are soooo gay lol" jokes are (or were, when I stopped watching). Of course the writers aren't any more serious about hooking Dean and Cas up based on gay jokes than they are about hooking Sam and Dean up based on the same damn thing, but that doesn't stop fandom from running with it and gaining momentum with each "lol ghey" crack the writers choose to make.

As someone who has hung out in both the male and female centred side of fandom, I will say the male side of fandom is worse. The fans can be so much more elitist and obnoxious.

yeahhhhh

i mean, i clearly hang out more in female fandom, and there's a reason for that

Men are worse than women, News at fucking 11

Steven Moffat is not the devil SJWs want to believe he is.

But he is a hack.
