Very few people bothered to find out what S1 Izzy / complex Edward enjoyers were interpreting differently than the "Izzy is Kylo Ren / Ed's his victim" crowd that made us like him in the first place, so it figures that now very few people are bothering to understand what a lot of us are criticizing in S2 while the - shockingly - exact same crowd leads the discussion on how it was a beautiful season and Izzy enjoyers are just incapable of decentering their problematic fave.
And it's once again leading to a barrage of posts lecturing us about why the takes they imagine we hold are wrong and supporting the same toxic fandom atmosphere that aimed to harass us all out for a year and a half. Cool. Glad to see no lessons were learned whatsoever.
Only difference is now we actually might leave, on account of you don't generally put up with extended harassment to support a show you don't even think is being written well. 🤷♀️
#it does make sense that the people who liked the aesthetic of S1 and then just wholly made up the underlying story they loved#are jumping to defend a s2 that gives them the look of relationship development - kisses! sex! - but we're criticizing as lacking story lol#like maybe my media literacy is not the problem when you just decide the story is clearly conveying what you want it to 🤷♀️#like i have seen a few izzy enjoyers who also are having fun with it or choosing the most 'benefit of the doubt' reads and good for you all#but i also noticed that S2 has struggled to trend near as much as S1 despite the audience jumping to watch immediately so like.#maybe that says something#our flag means death#ofmd s2#ofmd harassment#this fandom is so fucking toxic#(an insulting post crossing my dash TWICE from two different barely ofmd bloggers during destiel day really ticked me off)#ladyluscinia
