Anyway, one of my few fandom discourse beliefs is that everyone should delete any variation of "to say [XYZ] is a complete lie" or to act like someone is purposefully bending the truth about canon events. As someone with the absolute worst memory, I can guarantee that They Probably Just Forgot or misinterpreted something. It's a lot easier comparatively to find a specific quote than to read an entire novel or other medium when talking about a character or event. It's not that serious, and there's no great way to react to someone essentially calling you a liar

#I made this post about web novels tbh but it occurs in more fandoms #like. it seems like sometimes ppl want you to know everything about a story even if you have to reread it multiple times #or you're not a true fan and/or are deserving of unproportional criticism (ex: acting like someone's terrible for a harmless mistake)#idk I'm also bad with criticism but sometimes it seems like y'all are taking the worst faith interpretations without realizing it?#my posts #edit: tho tbh I think this is more of a pet peeve of mine
