sorry to my followers who are long time 911 fans and/or multishippers but... to me, the buddie fandom is the most toxic one i have seen, personally. and honestly... didn't anyone see this coming? the crowd who cries about queerbaiting when there was none, talks shit about other canon LIs and the actresses who played those roles, and harasses cast and crew on social media - and before season 7/bucktommy happened - demanding their fanon ship becomes canon? like. you can't be surprised. yeah, now they've turned against queer fans who are enjoying a canon queer relationship, because it's Not Buddie (therefore it's bad and wrong!) but this has been a long time in the making. sorry.

i just don't fucking understand how one ship can brainwash people to turning against their own community. and ok, straight people being openly homophobic, what else is new.. but fellow queers? over a fictional show with made-up people.

i'm not trying to call out anyone and this is not a vague post. this is based on my observations as a fan who started watching in april. feel free to tell me if i'm totally wrong about anything i said.

#send post #buddie is going in the way of harry potter #where you see it on someone's blog and your first instinct is ''is this person transphobic/homophobic?''#not trying to draw a false equivalence #it's a gut thing #and this ship is something i casually enjoyed but day by day i can't stomach it anymore.#because it's no longer just a ship to me. it's like the poster child for everything that's wrong with fandom today.#and yeah I'm still holding supernatural accountable #but this specific echo chamber really didn't do y'all any favours #anyway.#fandom criticism #just take a minute. think about it.
