"what kind of fandoms existed before Larry" fandom oldy here! Started consuming fandom when I was 13yo, am now 32 so ...

Larries fancy themselves big thinkers but they're nothing but a degeneration of bandom slash shipping (archaic terms I know lol). Back in the 2000s there was lot of shipping among pop punk band members (MCR, FOB, etc.) and actors too.

When Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes movies came out, shipping RDJ e Jude Law was a whole thing. They milked it for promo, then it quietly died out after the second movie came out and no third one was in sight. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal were briefly shipped after Brokeback Mountain, but that was respectfully put to rest after Ledger's death. I'm sure there're weirdos everywhere, but not to the level I saw in larry. There was no mainstream desrespect or questioning the validity of their real life relationships (Susan Downey, Michelle Williams ...) nor horrid theories about like, Matilda Ledger not being Heath's daughter.

Shippers of Supernatural J2 were a lot more degenerate, but then again, shipping the actual characters (who were BROTHERS) in the show was huge. Then there were the deranged shippers of Cumberbatch and Freeman from BBC Sherlock, that was very insane and disrespectful from what I remember, but I was never part of the fandom. Nowadays you've got some huge idiots cospiracist in Kpop fandom, but never to the Larry levels.

I grew up on Tumblr, I'm very fond of this place, cos' fandom was a huge source of comforts for the questioning ace girl born in a conservative family I was - but the echo chamber structure of this site did a lot of damage to people's critical thinking. It was especially insane in the first half of the 2010s, before mainstream media and the pop culture industry started addressing fandom directly and milking it for money. Things went quieter after than, and my generation too, we've grown up, matured, things have just changed a lot in the way media is consumed.

Larry is nothing special, but I got to say, the levels of delusion ARE insane, considering it's been YEARS since 1D disbanded. All the communities I've talke about? You've got a handful of "believers" left, very isolated, most people just have fond memories of it all. All of them died out slowly after the corrisponded piece of media ended. The lenght of Larry is what makes it so insane to me.

But yeah, Larries are nothing new or special, they can seat their asses down. Down to the bones of it, it's nothing but another RL shipping category on fanficion sites.

Fantastic summary. I forgot about the Cumberbitches, and then there are the Robstens who to this day think that Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are secretly married and have three children together.

Kristen+Robert vs. Taylor+Toe break up

Let's HOPE for the best. 🤞

2017 Kristen Stewart came out as gay! 🏳️‍🌈

This is a blog post from 2009:

👇 👇 READ ON 👇 👇 READ ON 👇 👇

Mr. "I don't talk about my private life" started to talk about his private life the second he had a VERY private life… of course! 😅

What's Taylor's part in all of this? She had a PR relationship with Twilight star Taylor Lautner and...

2012: In the end, Kristen cheated on Robert. (See how obviously they knew the photographer?) Robert wasn't harmed by the split, and people accepted the Robsten break up. Kristen was the bad girl in the story. Everyone loved them together and many would not have let Robsten go otherwise.

2017 Kristen Stewart came out as gay! 🏳️‍🌈

Do you see any connections to Taylor's life? 🤔

Let's HOPE for the best. 🤞

why do people on twitter think that rob wants to like cast a deadly spell onto kstew because she cheated on him over a decade ago? like no, they are cordial and living happily and rob of all people would not thrash on her in the media even if he did harbor feelings about the breakup still

Hey lovely. Do you think when Sam gets a girlfriend she will be attacked by some fans for being his girlfriend?

Oh, you sweet innocent lamb. The sad answer is YES.

Every woman Sam has dated, including his longest girlfriends, Abbie Salt (1 year 2015) and Mackenzie Mauzy (2 years 2016-2018) have been mercilessly attacked and bullied by Extreme Shippers, who still think Sam and Cait should be, or are together. Extreme Shippers' modus operandi has always been the same when a new woman enters Sam's life: leave hate comments on her social media, create fake accounts attacking her on social media, contact her family, friends, employers, ex-boyfriends and harass them, make up lies, pretend to be someone from their past, and then say horrible things about them. It's LITERALLY the same thing every time. It's like they have a blueprint or something...or they share the same demented brain. Extreme Shippers will deny this, but it is well documented on my blog and other blogs, with CONCRETE PROOF, that identifiable Extreme Shippers have engaged in this terrible behavior. Not to mention, it is also illegal to engage in cyber bullying.

Soooo, given that past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior, I'd say it's 100 % guaranteed that if Sam gets into another serious relationship, they will both be harassed by Extreme Shippers. Luckily, Sam's SANE fans support him, and the women he dates. And we have no problem calling out the assholes in this fandom aka Extreme Shippers.

And I don't hold out hope this assholery will change even after Outlander is over. If you look at other fandoms that have shippers, for example the Fifty Shades of Grey and Twilight fandoms, they still have shippers pining over Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson. And Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, when all four of them are in long term relationships not with their costars. And the Damie and Robsten shippers are STILL being jerks even years and years later.

At least the numbers will dwindle once Outlander is over because there won't be anymore Outlander related events to "swoon" over Sam and Cait being in the same room. But, the truly delusional will never give up. Never. Sad, but true.

Thanks for stopping by, Anon!
