@racheljoy356: I’m starting to think a lot of you are against having fun. It’s going to be okay if someone makes an OC to ship with an evil character or gets a tattoo of an infernal contract. I PROMISE you it is not the end of the world. #fandom #hungergames #thehungergames #fanfiction #fanfic

Pisskitty :

Someone recently told me I was using "proshipper dog whistles" because I said that you can't hurt a fictional character because they aren't real

☆nthony :

Romanticising a character ≠ validating the things they did or the irl things they represent. people are just silly

⦉🦴puppy gorou🐾⦊ :

I'm not in the hunger games fandom but i am in the genshin one, i wonder why characters like scaramouche (pre sumeru) and dottore have fans!

OWEN! 💘 :

fiction ≠ reality BUT the way that fiction is written and deals with things can tell us about the author and we should think critically about what we consume. this like, shouldn't even be a hot take imo. but alas!

Spear :

I am not a part of The Hunger Games fandom so I might be missing something but people edit villains all the time???😭

𝑮𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒓𝒃𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝑮𝒊𝒓𝒍 :

i saw someone complaining about fanfics being ooc 💀 like what do u expect

🐺🐾miku4prez🦌🐀 :

Lowkey this started when people started rewriting Disney movies to make the villains actually good guys. Like… can we not just… enjoy evil characters? Without them actually secretly good?

Eeva :

i’m so exhausted with people thinking what personally icks them out = morally reprehensible

zæi :

people not understanding that canon is and always has been just a suggestion 😭 Fandom is an entirely separate entity

Placenty :

or when people say that shipping a married character with someone else is normalizing cheating, like? they're not real, it does not affect the canon universe, why would it matter?

Syarapyak :

Note: Snow has GRANDCHILDREN. So obviously there's some woman who loved Snow? so what's the problem of writing that story as fanfic????

cupid ˚₊·—̳͟͞͞♡ :

there is fandom etiquette, and then there's virtue signaling

Sam :

Thank you for pointing out the “you’re just like the Capitol” thing I’m SICK AND TIRED of engaging in hunger games conversation because of this like let people have fun

Noplace🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇮🇪 :

Fr. It’s just this nowadays 😭

˗ˏˋ lovey ˎˊ˗ :

my hot take is that fandom is never that serious

🍀🎲MYLO_WYLO🎲🍀 :

I'm so sick of it I miss pre 2020 fandom

Josh Sims :

some fandoms I don't like are Draco and Hermione or what if the malfoys raised Harry or what if Bellatrix and voldemort raised Harry

Fabula2.0 :

tiktok always so specific because I'm living this rn 🤣 I just love Donald Sutherland. need more edits

Erin Lavender :

is this a safe place to admit i think most things in fandom aren’t that deep. like yes the stories are but the fandom isn’t if that makes sense e

Nelly (Ronan’s Version) :

its the whole idea of fiction = reality or not. personally I dont subscribe to that idea. yes, fiction and reality can influence each other, but they are opposites. they are not the same. relax. fiction doesnt affect your own personal life. enjoying fiction doesnt mean you condone what happens in fiction. most of us learn to differentiate fantasy from reality as toddlers and little kids- and if you truly cant separate a story from your reality, that's an issue you need to work through. its not on the authors or fans of the content to protect you from a story.

Mayanne :

Yeah it’s a fictional character who cares if there are thirst edits

b :

like why are ppl getting mad at certain ships bc "theyre not canon" AS IF THAT ISNT THE POINT OF SHIPPING

:) :

and I feel like most edits of evil characters in general are actually just edits of the ACTOR because ppl find them attractive physically, not the character's personality
