maverickz3r0: articuno shrouded in mist (freeze you solid)

[personal profile] maverickz3r0 2013-03-26 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll go out on a (not at all precarious) limb here and say they don't see it as really 'real.' It's the same as people who fawn over fictional serial killers and villains. Except to those of us who actually do realize it's real, it's about a billion times more creepy because the people the actual dictators killed and had killed were, actually, real, people.

If this is true, in other words, it doesn't surprise me but it does sadden me.

Have you not seen the huge fandom for serial killers? James Eagon Holmes has plenty of fan girls. I would not surprised to find self-insert hurt-comfort fic about him.

(There's also a pretty big fandom for serial killers that isn't romantically inclined toward them and simply finds them interesting studies, but still.)

(Anonymous) 2013-03-26 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, Caligula may have been a blood-thirsty tyrant, but he provided great opportunities for equines. Stallions found advancement to the consul position easy on those bygone days.

I love history but can't imagine "fangirling" anything in it, not in the same way as fiction fandoms! Closest I even come to that is when I was a kid I was part of a family membership to the York branch of the Richard III Society. And I didn't renew my membership as an adult because although I am sympathetic, I wasn't sure how far I could cope with the "he did no wrong ever" view of some members. Now I think about it, it does seem a bit like an upscale fanclub heh.

But eh, I suppose history "fandom" people are only having fun/not being deadly serious?

History fandom rocks, man. For me it's Edward II/Piers Gavascon all the way, and that IS SO canon, bitches. I'm glad Hugh bloody Despenser got his bits cut off, though, he was a little shitebag.

LOL at this secret after #9.

I think people watch dramatizations or movies like 300 and fangirl/fanboy over the characters, not the actual people who inspired said characters.

This says nothing good about my James Madison crush at all.

I'm curious about what exactly you mean by history fandom, because there are plenty of historical figures who weren't bloodthirsty tyrants. Very few of them stand up very well under current ethical standards, but eh.

This raises an interesting question. Do people who fandom about historical figures do it as RPF or as usual fandomy things based on the movies and historical fiction? Does it matter? Where do you draw the line? Now I'm actually interested in this.

Also, how would one write Caligula smutfic when Hollywood's already done it?

"at least those guys aren't murderers"

I'm just going to casually inform you that there are fandoms for serial killers. They even write fanfic. I had a friend of mine show me some of hers once. We then ceased being friends.
