This is more about the fandom, bc creators can't really controll this at all, so no hate to ANY creators just the fans who do this
But I feel like SOME, A VERY SMALL AMOUNT of fans/viewers take Mane and Flame being the villians(?) as an excuse to be racist just cause those two happrnef to be dark skinned/POC...
Even if they say "it's just characters" some people are just fucking assholes and try to excuse racist behavior/just horrible behavior

Don't Worry about YOUR "Place" in a Fandom...
Okay, I’m still not checking messages nor posting currently, that shall resume on Friday. I just popped in again to share this message because it may be something someone needs to hear ASAP.
—-----
Fandoms: the perfect opportunity to engage with other fans of something, and share your work or see theirs. Heck, they’re even the perfect place to make some new friends and get feedback on improving your abilities, should you be a content creator. However, they can also be the perfect place for discouragement or even, in the more toxic ones, harassment. It’s, unfortunately, the proverbial “double edged sword” that comes with a community of fans for something: you can either find yourself a well-renowned or at least welcomed individual, or you can find yourself overlooked or full-on attacked as one of the “black sheep.”
Sometimes, it can be more of an issue with the fandom itself. Billie Bust Up’s has an issue with policing fan-produced content– to the point where actual kids/minors will get mobbed –and I’ve seen them go as far as accusing “pedophilia” or “homophobia,” on the claims of fighting “proshipping” or “erasure.” Then, we have the infamous Steven Universe incident of a minor feeling inclined to take her own life, as the fanbase decided her “fatphobic” over a fanart piece that drew Rose Quartz “skinnier than she’s supposed to be.” I don’t think I need to say anything else they’ve done to emphasize “issues with the fandom itself,” but be assured that the suicide attempt failed and that user is still alive.
Other times of the “double edged sword,” and I hate to say it, but the “issue” is actually you: it not being a “toxic” fanbase of unreasonable members in these specific cases, but you and your actions being why you find yourself in a disfavorable position. You may behave in a way that no one finds “attractive” nor “appealing,” like if you have a tendency to act out or constantly “sympathy-reel” for attention– yourself or what you make. Believe me, it’ll often be more your behavior than your actual work that’ll earn the ire of more reasonable fandom members: the only time the more reasonable will hate you over pictures or writing, is when you’re actually using your talents to attack others (ex: “hate art”) or if you’re using everyone’s favorite characters for… sinister purposes (ex: actual grooming material).
Even if you don’t make such content, but normal content meant to be enjoyed by fellow fans, you can still feel some manner of grief within your community from it. Sometimes, it can be more direct: the bullies of the fandom finding your work/style “offensive” enough to attack, or the rabid fans of some bigger fandom member claiming “idea stealing” and otherwise. Clearly, they don’t fall under the “reasonable members” umbrella…
Other times, your content can result in your misery more indirectly: the realization that there’s nothing “special” about what you make or offer, especially easier in a smaller fandom of less “competition” (for lack of a better word). Before you start crying that I’m being mean, recall that “special” doesn’t specifically mean “good” nor “enjoyable”: it’s a term referring to uniquity, something that would really grab others’ interest and attention– something they couldn’t come across anywhere else. I mean, why focus on all these gray rocks on the road, when I can look at this shiny, rainbow-painted one? So yeah, your offered content just might not be “special” enough to earn a majority of attention, sorry to say.
What’s that: “Why bother anymore then, if no one else likes me or what I make…?” Umm… Did you forget why you joined a fandom and made content of that franchise in the first place?? It’s because you loved the series it’s based on, right? Why should others determine whether you continue making content or continue consuming whatever the official people behind it make? What’s that: “What’s the point of sharing, if the target audience wouldn’t want anything to do with it or me?”
Look, even if an entire fandom somehow turned against you, blocked you, whatever, you can still post things! No matter how small, you’re bound to still have some fellow fans who would love what you make. What about the people who aren’t part of the fandom? Heck, even people who generally don’t like the franchise in question may like what you, specifically, have done with it! Don’t get a swollen head, now, even if they may like your take on a character in fanfiction better or prefer your artstyle to the actual show’s/game’s/etc’s.
Just… You are in an age where people can finally share whatever they want to make, why are you letting yourself waste the opportunity because people are unreasonably cruel or you’re not some “big name”? Stop worrying about whatever “place” you may have in your fandom, and just create and share! Don’t hold yourself back from making great things, because of something that’s really just superficial in the long run…
#for anyone in a fandom#motivational speech#don't give up#don't fret just create#don't be afraid to share what you make#keep calm and carry on#fandom users#fandom members

#staff is fucking trash#all trust i had in them is gone#i should have known when i got banned after calling people out for treating ao3 volunteers being sent CSAM as fandom discourse#i only got unbanned because i complained on reddit and a staff member got in touch with me about it#he said it was a glitch#yeah right#ten thousand

When you start relating too much to a fictional character it's your god given right to project all your issues + transgenderism on them.
It's good for them. And you. It doesn't have to make sense.
#one piece#vinsmoke reiju#vinsmoke siblings#vinsmoke ichiji#vinsmoke yonji#I love making silly headcanons only for the self indulgence#hope this goes well w tumblr wanpi fandom don't be weird please#(yes the suit and hair being based on Sanji's 'cause that's the only member of the family Reiju respects/admired etc etc)#more reiju content in the future possibly I'm obsessed#me art#talltales

whoever caused Gem to turn off comments under her finale. i hope all of you live in shame
#i dont even watch her but oh my god some people in the fandom really are stupid#lets be honest if a new male member acted the same way she does and was as powerful as she got there wouldnt be this much backlash#its her first season too. good lord. behave or get nuked

hey btw every time you dumb down a superhero in order to make the resident Bat look smarter an angel fucking dies
#This is about Hal Jordan btw#He is a member of a highly skilled highly trained branch of the military#And most fans treat him like he couldn’t figure out how to work a microwave#Do you know how hard it is to fly a plane#This is also about Barry allen#He’s literally a forensic scientist#He’s just as qualified if not more qualified than Batman in some situations#hal jordan#barry allen#dc comics#dc fandom#green lantern#the flash#also#superman#green arrow#aquaman#and any of their affiliates#Superheroes#batman#p-14c

"chilchuck isn't a twink, he's a DILF!" now i get why you're saying that but i feel like you've maybe forgotten what chilchuck tims canonically looks like
i'm sorry but this man is a twink. also DILF isn't a body type it's a status (and technically, an opinion) so he can be both
"but he's middle-aged!" look at him. look with your eyeballs. his age has nothing to do with the fact that he Looks Like That. he's a twink. the sooner you accept this the less angry his fandom will make you
edit bc this post has become the bane of my existence:
FAQ
Q: wtf do you mean he's a dad? he looks like a kid. A: he is 29 years old, and a half-foot. half-foots are dungeon meshi's halflings, or hobbits, or whatever you want to call them.
Q: wait, if he's 29, why the fuck are you calling him middle-aged? A: half-foots have an average lifespan of 50 years. chilchuck was originally drawn with grey hairs (you can see that in the manga fullbody) but the mangaka gave up on that over time. he's middle-aged for his race.
Q: hey, doesn't that look like a little angry face on his boot in the manga drawing? A: yea kinda
#as a proud member of the chilfucker fandom i think we should all accept his canon appearance even if we draw him way different#if you can only love him if he looks like a hobbit do you really love him at all?#by all means draw and think of him however sparks joy for you. but this is who he is in the manga and anime and you need to accept that#i love all chilchucks but i just love him in general. ideal man#chilchuck tims#tox.txt#edits made because the tags on this post are my villain origin story#i have now muted notifs!

A Persuasive Argument - dpxdc
"Great!" Danny says, clapping his hands together to get everyone's attention. The dinner table falls silent as everyone looks towards him. It's a full house today and, honestly, Danny's a little nervous. "I'm sure you're all wondering why I gathered you here today."
"It's dinnertime. In our house." Duke mutters, while doing a very bad job of concealing his yawn. He holds his fork poised over the braised beef, but, just like everyone else, still looks towards Danny before tucking in. It's intriguing enough to wait.
"Yeah, no one misses Alfie's dinner." Dick says, with a brilliant smile that Danny can't help but return.
"Precisely! What better time to talk to you all than when you're all actually here!"
"Wait, I thought you came round to work on our English essays?" Tim asks, blinking owlishly.
"I'm afraid I've lured you here under false pretences, Tim."
"This is where I live."
"I would still really appreciate help on that essay though, I mean, what the hell is Hamlet even about? I just don't get that old time-y language, like 'Hark! A ghost hath killed me!' - absolute rubbish, what does that even mean?"
"The ghost never kills anyone in Hamlet, he's there to tell Hamlet that he was murdered. Have you actually read it?"
"No, but it sounds like you have. Tim, I want this guy to help me with my essay instead. I know for a fact that you haven't read Hamlet, either."
"So? We don't need Jason, I've read the Sparknotes."
"Hi Jason, I'm Danny, pleasure to meet you, summarise Hamlet in three sentences or less."
"Am I auditioning to help you write your essays? I can't believe you’ve gone through your whole school life without reading it, it’s good!"
"Hamlet, along with a number of other classics, was banned in our house because it portrayed ghosts as intelligent and sympathetic beings rather than evil, animalistic beasts. I didn’t even get to see The Muppet's Christmas Carol until last year with Tim! It was surprisingly good, and I hate Christmas because everyone always argued and it sucked. But we're getting off topic. I—"
"No, no, please go back to that, because what the fu—"
"Boys, please." Bruce interrupts, looking to the world as if he wants to hang his head in his hands. "Danny, you were about to say something?"
"Oh, yeah, Mr. Wayne! Thanks!"
"Please, call me Bruce."
"Well, that very succinctly brings me to my point, because I'd actually really like to call you dad."
Nobody says a word. Nobody even blinks, all as shocked as the other, watching open-mouthed as Danny pulls his laptop out from beside his chair. Bruce can definitely feel a headache coming on.
"Before you say anything, I've prepared a 69 slide PowerPoint presentation on why you, Bruce Wayne, should adopt me, Danny Last-Name-Pending. Please save your questions, comments, and verdict until the end, thank you."
#dpxdc#batpham#i forget - can we tag the parent fandoms? w/e#immediately alfred's like: while i do appreciate your initiative may i suggest it wait until after dinner?#and danny - who has barely eaten proper homecooked food ever - takes one bite and then absolutely wolfs down the whole lot#after he's finished he's like 'bear with - I've got to add that to the 'Reasons I Would Like to Live Here' section'#danny's powerpoint has tailored sections for each batfam member with lists of reasons why they'd get along#my au thoughts on this is that the fentons disowned danny when he told them he was phantom#and that this is after the ultimate enemy - wherein which he allied himself with the JL to fight against dan#(which didnt really work at all - BUT he knows some of their identities now INCLUDING batman's)#so one of the main reasons why he'd be a great fit is that he knows their vigilante status anyway so they don’t need to worry about secrets#dick just turns to tim like 'he’s your friend. he learnt this from you.'#tim: 'i didn't tell him our identities!! i would never!!'#dick: 'no i know that. it's the stalker tendancies. it's baby tim all over again'#tim: scandalised gasp#they all eat dinner in silence just super subdued and in shock and sending glances to bruce and danny#duke like: 'so i know I'm the last one in the family but like... this isn't how it normally happens right? did any of you make powerpoints?#tim gets all shifty because he absolutely did make a powerpoint he just never actually showed it to anyone#everyone stares at tim because they all know. it was in one of bab's blackmail files she has on him#damian's slide has danny offering to throw down at any time. 'tim says you like to prove yourself with your skills?#how about a real challenge? if i beat you then you have to vote yes to adopting me!'#damian is in two minds about accepting because... 1) look at him damian could take danny in his sleep! but#2) on the off chance that he does win... damian does not want any more brothers#(he takes the bet and its a suprisingly fun fight - and while he'll never say this... he would vote yes even without the wager)#on one of danny's slides there's a picture of ellie: you'll also get my clone sister! two children for the price of one!!#uhhh.... thats it now - I've been having fun with this haha#spent all day with the 'ive lured you here under false pretences' 'danny i live here' line in my head haha#anyway enjoy!!!!!! this was fun#i wanna make these slides so bad

All this aroace character shipcourse has proven to me that a majority of people that interact in fandom cannot actually interact with characters and media outside of shipping and genuinely I believe you need to learn how to interact with media outside of shipping.
#text#fandom#aro#ace#aroace#aromantic#asexual#this became extremely obvious with Encanto - where the main message of the movie was ignored#and people were so desperate for shipping they started shipping background characters or even the family members....eugh#like at some point you must understand your inability to interact with media outside of a narrow romantic scope is an actual problem#at some point you need to accept you don't ACTUALLY like the media you're interacting with#like genuinely can you say anything else that you like about a piece of media besides the fact you want two characters to kiss?#genuinely i do believe the way some of you interact with things needs to change because it's made fandom spaces literally unbearable#also it has severely limited some of your guy's critical thinking skills#if you want content based around shipping then look at the romance genre it's literally right there for this very reason#shipping just needs to stop dominating fandom discussions and interactions. shipping should not be the main focus of every genre ever ffs#that or y'all need to literally start tagging your shit so that people can actually block it out and find the posts that they want to see

I would have said and done so much more, but I'm too scared because this fandom made me feel like even after watching hundreds of hours of content, I'm still not good enough to even open my mouth about the characters.

"we need more complex female characters" you couldn't even handle her
#ash: hey idk if it’s a good idea to give full access of the most advanced warship we have to a mercenary who shot a suspect in cold blood#and a cop who quit his job because there were too many rules (and also happens to be a member of the military we were recently at war with)#also i think the council will throw us to the wolves to save themselves#like half the fandom: omg space racist???#sorry for discourse posting™ but i saw a terrible post that rocketed me back into 2013#anyway we may have preferences but we love and appreciate both virmire survivors in this house#mass effect#ashley williams
