#boycott 911

[alastaircarstairsdefenselawyer]

with 911 lone star filming again, just a reminder that ronen rubinstein used his fan base to raise money for israel and then attacked pro-palestinian fans.

tbh i think a lot of the people saying "well both sides are wrong"/"bt stans are just as toxic" are just not exposed to other perspectives in this fandom. as a buddie fan who's been watching this show since s1, i can safely say that buddie fans have always been toxic. like as fact. to me, to say that bucktommy fans are just as harmful or just as annoying or just as bad as buddies consistently are is just. delusional. indicative of at worst a biased opinion and at best an uninformed one. buddie has been here since s2 and fans have ruthless ever since. bucktommy has been here for 3/4 of a season and for the most part, stay in their lane. i'm sure there are bucktommy fans who suck, like that's just being on the internet, but you have to be blind to ignore how insane buddie fans are and genuinely how much worse they are in comparison.

i don't want to generalize and i think constantly adding that disclaimer is annoying as hell bc obviously i'm not talking about everyone but because buddie has been here for so long and taken up so much mental space of very die-hard, passionate fans, you're going to see much more intensity on that side. after season 5, i had to step away from the fandom and the show because of how frustrating it got. it was annoying to see people swear up and down buddie will be canon by the end of s3-no wait s4-no wait s5-no wait- and ultimately it sucked my enjoyment out of a show i otherwise enjoyed because i got swept up in the Buddie Of It All and forget about why i watch the show to begin with. we've been left to stew in our theories and now we can't tell what canon and what's fanon anymore, and when the show reminds us, the disappointment and frustration kills our hopes.

i was also active in the dan and phil fandom and supernatural fandom, like ik why people think we're annoying and it's because we are. we make everything about the one thing we like, we comment on every post begging for it to become canon, we're violently disappointed when the show doesn't play into our fan theories because we've convinced ourselves buddie is going to happen by the end of the next episode or actually the end of this season or actually maybe the end of the next season. we've torn a part every female love interest, either making them boring or making them unlikeable in our fanon. all that to say is that when people call us annoying, they're telling the truth and when bucktommy fans say buddie fans are toxic, they're coming from a sincere place. i mean we can't even enjoy our own ship because we're so quick to get our hopes up and be let down about something as stupid it becoming canon. who cares if it becomes canon, just like it to like it.

and it makes sense why there's perceived "toxicity" on the bucktommy side. our energy is being matched; the obsession, the passion, the surge in fandom. if you don't like it or even just find it annoying, i suggest you guys look back on your own posts and comments and behaviors towards other people in the fandom and other characters and unbiasedly compare it to the Toxic Bucktommy Shippers you're claiming you hate. if bucktommy fans are obsessive, it's because we've set the stage for that. if bucktommy fans are getting aggro and defensive, it's because buddie fans have been on the opposition and don't know how to turn it off. we've gone from underdog to bully somewhere in the last 6 seasons.

I think we should keep in mind that once there's a ceasefire, everyone's loved ones, all the children, and all the sick and injured won't magically cone back to life and be healed immediately. What Israel is doing is irreversible, and letting them continue with their crimes against humanity is adding on to all these irreversible tragedies. This is not something you can put off for another day, because so many innocent people are being slaughtered by the second.

It's Ceasefire

NOW

[whim-prone-pirate]

and another thing people are discussing this like tommy was a main character with an arc. he was supporting at best even in his own relationship. i'm sorry to say it was not disrespectful to treat a supporting character like a supporting character. he's allowed to have an unceremonious exit. bucktommy existed for buck's story… not tommy's. i am ALL FOR loving and caring for character's who don't really have a story of their own (we're all huge fans of ravi and lucy and lena hello they are/were barely around!!!), i get how fun it is. but so many people are confusing their love for tommy and their headcanons for implication that he was ever supposed to stick around and develop outside of buck. he was never gonna be his own Guy you know.

[laylawatermelon]

As a buddie fan this is hilarious because we know why it's so late for sneak peeks. I choose to stay calm.

[eddiediazenjoyer]

whatever. no athena is not a "mishandled" character she is handled exactly the way that they want to handle her. she is not "at odds" with the rest of the show she is a vessel for a pro-police state message that is at the center of the show whether you like it or not. she is the titular cop in a copaganda show. do not forget this bc she had one singular episode where she realizes that incarcerating people is Bad Sometimes (but not on principle but bc it makes the cop sad :(. ) like. that whole storyline was still rife with copaganda (her being allowed by the Plot to exercise abuse of power by literally locking that guy in a trunk)(the dichotomy that they CONSTANTLY show between Bad Cops and Good Cops)(dennis saying that he won't accept the deal without athena's permission, implying that he Deserves that kind of punishment unless athena frees him from it and that prison absolved him in some way)(even them having the Real Bad Guy that's dichotomized against dennis being a child molester is fucking copaganda like. it's classic. they always remind you that Well we actually need cops and prisons bc then what do we do with people like him??? the really scary guys??? THAT'S COPAGANDA) like. that's the story. this in not undone by her not... what. arresting him on the spot and banning him from taking the deal????? talk about bare minimum. ik it's complicated and like. i like this show too but goddamn the bar is on the floor and it's crazy how easily people fold as soon as the Cops Are Good show has the cop show one moment of complexity regarding prison. guys. it's still the Cops Are Good show by DESIGN. it's not incidental

Today, our home in Gaza was completely demolished. There’s no safe place left for my children to return to. We’re desperate for help to rebuild our lives from nothing. Please, if you can, donate or share our story. We have nowhere else to turn. 🙏

[ranbling]

Some people and their takes really want me to either scream or to write several posts just to counteract them

[ftorres-9]

^^ like OP said. If they don’t give us a genuine answer on if buddie will ever be canon or not and continue to toy with us for publicity and views as they have been, and ESPECIALLY if they don’t write M*risol off the show by the finale, I’m boycotting it. I hope others will join me in that. It’s the only real way we can get them to hear us. I’ll watch the rest of season 7 and remain somewhat hopeful but if by 7x10 we still have no answers and E*y is still on the show, that’s it for me and I’m done.

the way i'm about to leave this whole ass show

The railway line owned by CN connects Montreal to Halifax, where protesters claim goods are shipped to Israel.

Local Longueuil police said that they received a 911 call at about 10:05 a.m. They asked protesters blocking the tracks at the intersection of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Seigneurial boulevards to move. According to police spokesperson Melanie Mercille, after protesters refused to move, the police’s emergency intervention unit broke up the barricade an hour and a half later.

Police say four officers were struck by their own pepper spray and four people, both men and women in their 20s and 30s, are facing charges ranging from obstruction to assault.

[...]

In a press release, a group called the Ad-hoc BDS Direct Action Collective blamed CN Rail for helping transport goods to Israel, which they accuse of genocide in its conflict with Hamas. According to the release, the blockade was meant to “temporarily interrupt trade by shutting down a vital artery and draw attention to Canada’s material support, and inspire further boycott, divestment, and sanctions direct action.”

Good response to the "bubble" anon. There's something people in online fandoms need to realize, we are a very small minority. Forget about the BuckTommy bubble or the Buddie bubble, the online fandom for 9-1-1 is itself a bubble. And it's so small in the scheme of things.

A big post might get a few thousand likes on Tumblr. Put those likes against the ten million US & Canada-based viewers 9-1-1 gets weekly, and the online fandom size looks silly in comparison. Then consider that some of those likes on Tumblr are from people living outside of the US and Canada. And that many of those likes are from people who don't watch the show. Those are people who do not matter when it comes to TPTB when their focus is on the bottom line.

The majority of viewers aren't in a fandom for this show. They're more go-with-the-flow. More importantly, they're more likely to base their opinions on what is actually happening on the show whether they love the story or hate it.

This is all to say, regardless of how they feel about BuckTommy, most non-fandom viewers accept they were a couple. Most non-fandom viewers would never even consider Buck and Eddie as romantic because they don't spend countless hours thinking of all the ways Eddie's secretly not the straight character the show is telling us he is.

Those "journalists" are aiming for online fandom views, not the general audience. And so many of them come from that space. You're not getting pros established in TV journalism writing about Buddie. Even if they secretly shipped them, they know better.

Hi, Nonnie! Thanks!

Yeah, you sum it up pretty perfectly here. Not only us, but also Buddies, are a really small (tiny, even) part of the show's viewership. That's why I laugh whenever I see a Buddie threatening to boycott the show, because they simply do not have that power.

Matter of fact is that, based on what we've seen, BT was generally liked by the GA, enough that we saw some of them go out of their way to express their disappointment post 806. And we also know that Buddie isn't a generally liked ship by them, as they'd prefer for them to stay friends. And, honestly, I think this is one of the things that make them extremely mad, the knowledge that our small ship has resonated with the GA audience in a way their hasn't.

(Also, I want to say that this follows what the writers and showrunners wanted. The GA liking BT romantically but not Buddie makes sense, because only one pair was presented as romantic, and it wasn't Buddie. The audience likes things as they are presented to them. They aren't looking up the magnet theory).

Lastly, yes - the journalists very much come from an online space, and they all know what goes on in the 911 fandom. That's why a lot of them choose to cater to the bigger online presence; the same presence that will bully them if they do not cater to them. At this point, these journalists are very much making their own bed, for as they are promising things (in a way) that I honestly believe even they know won't happen. And when all is said and done and things, inevitably, don't go the way the journalists tease, hell will rain on them. But as I say - they're making their own bed (also known as- if you fuck around, you will find out).

Anyway, my inbox is open for ranting, venting, giving your opinions, and, if you want confessions as well!

Take care <3

I had a dream that 911 introduced a new character—a woman—to the story, and her actress was contracted for regular occurrences over the next two seasons. And she (the character, not the woman who played her) was a literal Alien. Like… grey skin and pale green hair and eyes with galaxies inside them. The makeup they did to her (the actress) meant she looked barely human, but they made sure she had large boobs and long green hair, y’know— so the audience could tell she’s a “girl” or whatever 🙄. And it was clear they were setting her up to be Buck’s new LI, and we knew she was sticking around despite the fact LIs NEVER do because of her contract and people were pissed because “They’d rather pair this man up with an alien woman than a human man?” And Buck even said a line about how Tommy and thinking he liked men was a phase, and he was picking the “right pond.” So, some major LGBTQ+ outlet called to boycott 911 because of it’s “Disappointing support for the idea that being LGBTQ is just a phase and that bisexual individuals, specifically, must choose a side.”

I kinda have to laugh at the “review bomb his new movie” because it’s not really his movie lmao. Is he in it ? Yes. But is it *his*? No lol. He’s got like two scenes? In it ? He’s not a main character or anything. Like review bombing it will only really hurt the other actors who most definitely have nothing to do with 911 and the bt fans obsessions 💀

Also I’m confused. Because they keep screaming how Edie’s not gay because Ryan said heterosexual so…. How is he trying to steal the story ? By their own logic. And I really have to laugh at how much power the bt shippers think Ryan has(while also saying he’s a nobody with no connections at the same time 💀😂) because they say he’s forcing the entire cast to be his friend for good PR, and now he’s going against Tim, Oliver, and Lou to single handedly steal the entire show for his own nefarious purposes. Like does his power know no limits 😂😂 why is he wasting it on the acting world.

Boycotting family feud. Like…ok? I guarantee no one will even notice lmao. A common issue with fandom is they think they are larger than they are in comparison to the GA. Family feud has its own fanbase. And its own GA. Despite how much they try and bluster their way about it, the BT shippers are already an even smaller portion of the fandom then the general fandom of 911 is, Nevermind even compared to another shows. Them boycotting family feud would essentially be like… throwing a sewing needle at a concrete reenforced steel bar brick wall. Inconsequential and pointless.

As for the over all vibes of their plan it still boils down to “Let’s try and cyber bully the poc actor into quitting because he exists in an attempt to get our favorite white man to take his job”

Dude, I have no notes oskaoskaosaos the thing with Ryan's movie, is that from what I've seen he's just a random character, and the pr department of the movie is using the fact that Ryan has a lot of pull with part of the audience, being in a major procedural that's been talked about A LOT lately, so he's a recognizable pretty face to put on interviews and get people to watch the movie because it is a 90 minutes comedy movie. How do you successfully boycott a 90 minutes comedy movie? And Family Feud is it's own mess, like, they have their own audience, the people who will watch the 911 episode are not relevant enough for their numbers for it to matter if people don't watch it. They regular audience will watch it anyway. And if they don't have to worry because Eddie is straight and Ryan said Eddie is heterosexual, then why can't you just leave him alone? Seriously, I think they don't understand how the world works.

[here-for-eddie]

remember to make your 911 watching count, from anywhere in the world

are you a bit worried that a handful of people decided to boycott the show?

do you want to show your support for where the story is going?

you don't have access to American live TV?

Remember, you can still make your rewatch count and contribute to those official views, which is the feedback that the network is the most interested in!

On the ABC website, you can watch new episodes a week after premiere, no log-in required, episodes are available for 4 weeks

And the good news is, it only requires 2 steps!

use a VPN and set your location to the US

go to abc.com and start watching Confessions

you can use any VPN you want, personally I prefer Windscribe (10GB/month free, works on multiple devices, has pc and phone version)

So now it's a perfect time to rewatch:

the hot priest flirt with Eddie and set him on the quest to find joy

the well callback

Madney family news

bt bones

that dance scene

And of course, Americans can do it too!

a discussion ( IMPORTANT )

.

hello, everyone.

i will get to the much more important matter of this first and foremost, and then get into much smaller details after.

if you are not aware, Palestine is suffering a genocide at the hands of Israeli government and military, and Palestine's connection with the outside world has been almost completely cut off after a bombing hit the center that controls all communications.

right now, Palestine is suffering even more bombings. to give you a picture in what has happened to them in detail:

there are now very little reporters and journalists to give word on what is currently happening, and they are getting murdered.

there is no way for the people to call 911 // 101, leaving many to slowly die or not have a chance at coming back.

they have cut off their electricity, water, food, and medical aid. they have left Palestine with nothing.

they have bombed hospitals, and are currently trying to bomb the largest hospital ( with 50,000+ inside ), under the claims ( with no evidence ) that terrorists // the hamas are inside.

since the attacks, over 7000 people ( 2000+ children ) have died, and there are documents of every single one of them. it is said there are even more.

even more is happening, and there are many recordings, articles, photos, etc. of the horrors of this genocide.

children are being buried under rubble in their sleep, they are praying for safety, for help, for protection, spouses are being torn apart, homes older than most of my community are bombed down into nothing. this is not a war. this is genocide.

families are being torn apart. children are becoming orphans. spouses are becoming widows. nothing justifies this, nothing justifies the slaughter of thousands of innocents.

in order to help:

demand a ceasefire ( this will send you to a site that has multiple options on how to help ).

share everything you know about Palestine's suffering. ( a good start is sbeih.jpg )

boycott companies ( the big 3: starbucks, mcdonalds, and disney plus, but please look into more ).

make donations to Palestine. ( there are also fundraisers on all of my instagram accounts )

inform your friends, family, anyone you can of what is happening. do not fall for the propaganda.

it is vital for their survival to do as much as we can to support them, to stand and fight for them. please, do not ignore this. do not look away. do not get used to what is happening. please, please, please do not stop caring for all of Palestine.

free Palestine.

.

i have made the rebranding for this account recently, but before i was aware of this horrifying act of inhumanity. now that i am more knowledgeable of this, it has changed a lot of how i view life.

it doesn't feel appropriate now, to call my take on this show as a story of war, with what i do know. the acts of the horde are very similar, if not exact, to the acts of the government on Palestine.

with this all in mind, how nate has made the original she-ra into what it is "known for" today has me absolutely appalled and disgusted, more than ever before. spop is not a story of love, it is a story of war criminal apologists, and war criminals getting a happy ending, because they were sad. it is a story of glorified propaganda.

it is a love letter to war criminals, no matter how much people want to argue otherwise, no matter what nate's intentions were. it is a disservice to those who have suffered from war, genocide, abuse, military, starvation, abuse of power, amongst many other things.

why am i bringing this up?

to tell you all that my remake will most likely not be out for a long, long time. i do not want to disrespect the stories told by victims, to bring shame to those who do not deserve it, by making the wrong decisions.

the story will definitely not be the next avatar, it will not be the next anything. but i do not want to be careless, or under the pretenses that i "know enough". i want to be a responsible writer, and that means taking responsibility for what i give to my audience.

so, if you've read this, please do not ask me further questions on how my writing for this story is coming along. this will take time, and time is what will be given. you can ask me about various things, of course ( such as what i will do with characters, relationships, etc. ), but i will not speak on what the story will entail or what it will evolve into.

thank you for your support, and stand with Palestine.
