Congrats on finding an alternative to the pervasive negativity that seems to be ubiquitous these days.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah like, why would people ever be negative?

[(Anonymous)]

Been considering picking up on my studies again for the same reason.

My favourite tweet on the subject:

"I’ve heard white incel types talk about diversity in games and and then put Japan on a Pedestal like people in Japan aren’t expressing frustrations about lacks of diversity in media. I was a teacher and parents in Japan HATE most pop media because it’s sexist and gross."

Like as a reason to learn Japanese or do you actually agree with it?

[(Anonymous)]

This doesnt have much, if anything, to do with the subject though. OP is clearly talking about the fandom and the atmosphere in fannish circles.

[(Anonymous)]

you know, i think "trying to find like minded fans of a thing i like" is a good reason to learn and practice a language, no matter how wrong your perception of japanese wokeness may be*


(*i have no idea if it is wrong, i can't judge)

[(Anonymous)]

I feel like I must have blocked all those types because fandom really isn't that way for me anymore? This comm still makes me roll my eyes, which is weird because you wouldn't think people would be so performatively woke on anon, like what's the point? And yet.

[(Anonymous)]

lmao

you would think this would make a person consider that people *aren't* being performative and actually believe what they're saying but I guess not

[(Anonymous)]

Honestly, it's the most fun to be sanctimonious anon because you don't have to keep up the charade.

[(Anonymous)]

One or a select few anons here are entirely convinced that this place is the most vile and disgusting fandom space ever, with all -isms firmly in place. And some say "ugh, it's far too faux-woke".
It's so funny.

[(Anonymous)]

Hey I'm op from a couple of days ago and I think you're referencing me. In regards to that, my main complaint in regards to that secret is not what you said, but that there's at least one troll who uses racism/sexism/antisemitism, and that there's at least one person who really just wants to argue angrily to make themselves feel better. They may or may not be the same person. And that surprisingly enough my Tumblr experience is better than my F!S experience. That was what my secret was about.

[(Anonymous)]

I have seen the odd comment about this in GC as well so if those weren't made by you, I guess there are some more anons.

[(Anonymous)]

not everything is about you, y'know.

[(Anonymous)]

Great image for this secret!

[(Anonymous)]

I love that you found a happy place for you in fandom again!
Honestly, I almost tried this with French once, before I quickly realized that Quebec French and France French are two completely different things, and I didn't recall either well enough anymore to actually interact with anyone anyways;; Learning a language isn't easy...

(I'm surprised that angry anon who thinks Japanese fandom is entirely evil for breaking shit once upon a time isn't here to rain on OP's parade.)
