one thing that really pisses me off is when fandom-brained people say that fanfiction is simultaneously not only a magical transformative punk (?) work of art but also a non-threatening feminist hobby that should never be criticized ever.

if fanfiction is an art form it is therefore open to criticism, and if it's a hobby i will not take it seriously. continuing to exist in this self-created limbo of being the most progressive art form and also just a silly little hobby is stupid and helps nobody.

#my post #mine #also: existing in this liminal space brushes a lot of fandom biases (mainly racism and fetishization of poc + queer men) under the rug #because ohhhhh it's just a cute hobby it's just a fun thing to do with your time #how dare you say the handmaid's tale reylo au is disgustingly misogynist not to mention misses All the themes of the original work #the person who wrote that was just a smol creative bean #or the constant fetishization of any character who doesn't have skin color FFFFFF #you know what i mean. the random language slips. constantly masculinizing them. calling their boyfriends “papi”. etc.#remember how fans treated suletta from gundam witch even though she was obviously more feminine than miorine?#and then the fujoshi shit. i'm not even gonna get into that one but suffice to say it makes me madder than god
