yup, like Americans can talk

I do understand frustration I prefer fics keeping cultural/linguistic theme of the canon too. And I miss like 90% of this since I am not from English speaking country. But wow wow way to be hypocritical

Not the confetti conspiracy.

This reminds me of the Sheith socks for Voltron campaign to get the studio to release the “real and unedited” version of season 8 lmao.

Voltron fandom was an embarrassing mess beginning to end.

They make a big deal about their ships being dark and fucked-up because that's what the ships' antis harass them about, and it's better to try and own it than deny it. They wouldn't have to go around declaring that their ship is fucked-up and you can die mad about it if there weren't so many people hellbent on dying mad about it in the first place.

This place: Both sides were equally bad!

Sheith shippers and neutral/nonshippers who were in the Voltron fandom: No, Klance shippers were definitely worse. Here is a long list of examples. Yes, I am angry because thinking about it does make me angry because what they did was infuriating.

Everyone else: Well since you're so butthurt I've decided Sheith shippers were obviously worse.

All the comments on this secret reminding me why I hated the VLD fandom so much Lmao. A whole ass trash fire.

*touches the ground* Something terrible happened here.

I would watch the hell out of that.

One Piece is the big one for me. Found family is basically one of the corner stones of the story. There are many different variations of the theme as well, but just the obvious one for the main characters is already pretty much one of my favourite variations of found family dynamics.

What's your interpretation of found family, if you don't mind me asking?

That sounds frustrating and I know that I'm missing the point, but also... What was that about the porn?

Because most Thai BL I've been recced was of the sort where the show beat around the bush waaaay too long and then the dudes kiss once and then there's more nonsense for way too long until they kiss again and the shoe ends. I might be more forgiving if there was at least something hot to look at WHILE the nonsense is going on.

Not offensive, just surprising when we didn't know it was a thing.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
DA but my goodness you're deadset on your narrative, aren't you?

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
Except for the examples people gave of Sheith shippers also being vile, wherein they were called liars. But sure.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 09:29 am (UTC)(link)
I have a kneejerk hatred of Klance the ship because some -SOME!!!!- of it's loudest shippers allehefly gave birth to the current anti thing going on .

Yeah, this is where I am as well, having never been in the Voltron fandom. As far as I can tell the most vocal parts of both ship camps were shitty, but I do resent the side more that normalized the whole thing of finding any little excuse to call rival ships dangerous and degenerate.

[for the secret maker --Fandom: Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood]

I would be into King Bradley if he didn't remind me so damn much of Tom Selleck.

I mean he's a fit, agile, sharp, good looking older man...I can only dream up the fic...too bad I just keep seeing Tom Selleck a la Blue Bloods/life insurance commercials whenever I hear and see him!

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 10:36 am (UTC)(link)
So wait, you admit that Sheith fans harassed fans of a different show because they found dirt on a staff member, and somehow this is still Klance fans' fault?

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 10:38 am (UTC)(link)
Completely fair

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
Neutral/nonshippers in this thread also gave examples of Shieth folks being shitty lmao

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 10:40 am (UTC)(link)
Plenty of comments here are saying any accusation toward the righteous Shieth side are biased lies. Meanwhile no one has actually said the Klance side was *innocent*, just that it was a two-sided war.

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
More like this place: yeah both sides sucked

Shieth shippers: NO ONLY THE KLANCE FANS SUCKED AND IF YOU DISAGREE YOU'RE A LIAR AND AN ANTI!!

Everyone else: ....yeah so both sides sucked

Shieth shippers: ANTI!!!

thank you for making my secret!

okay well if they did it's not evident from their writing

OP

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 11:20 am (UTC)(link)
look she's got the degree ok. she's at least read and interpreted the myths through available scholarship

OP

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 11:30 am (UTC)(link)
i said "progressive" for a reason. i'm not talking about people who just want to riff on the myths, i'm talking about the people who think that their stories are restoring female autonomy or something, like they've never read a greek tragedy before and can't understand the context of the summaries they've encountered.

OP

(Anonymous) 2023-06-22 11:45 am (UTC)(link)
is Amethyst Marie trying to pretend she's revealing a perspective the greeks or romans cruelly oppressed or is she just having a bit of fun? if it's the latter, im not talking about her.

Almost every god does something shitty at one point, and it all ties back to what they’ve learned from Zeus and the twisted rules he enforces.
if you're getting this from modern authors, this is what i mean. no one who has read any greek mythic writing thinks zeus is handing down shit or is even really enforcing shit. the most "i'm in charge" he gets is the iliad. stop pretending that a fertility god promoted to prominence after the end of cretan dominance is a really doing the paterfamilias thing. cosmic archetypes are beyond good and evil for obvious reasons.
