Shameless US fandom is awful, the amount of people who just don't understand how it is to actually live a life like they do in the show. Which means they make a huge deal out of things than in a life similar to that wouldn't be made a deal out of and they ignore the actual real problems they have.

For example one of the characters might or might not be Bipolar and the fandom is so angry at his family for not noticing that something is wrong with him. Ignoring the fact that the only person in the household that can earn enough money lost her job and the issue of how to pay for rent/utilities and food is a lot higher on the list of priorities than anything else. And that is just the top of the iceberg of things that they have to deal with so no there is sadly no time or energy left to notice that one of them might be struggling. Living a life like that means you handle the crisis first, everything else fades into the background and no that does not mean they don't care about their brother, it just means that life sucks and you have to deal the best you can.

I have a lot of feelings about Shameless US fandom, mostly because the life they live on the show is a televised version of my life
