#i tagged taekook just for you anon think i'll keep doing it

[reflections-in-a-critical-eye]

Once upon a time, when Tumblr was more popular among fandom spaces, fandoms would usually work out their own tagging systems. Like ship name for positive posts about a ship and anti + ship or some mocking version of the ship name as the tag name for negative posts about the ship. It was mostly etiquette driven. You stay in your lane and I'll stay in mine and if you don't, then don't complain when you get a barrage of messages and dm's of people critiquing you. In a similar way as long as you'd properly tagged it, your negative post was less likely to get someone starting shit under it. Of course loads of people would still go into tags they didn't like and rile themselves up, but overall I think this was a good system.

This system sort of got lost esp for newer fandoms once Tumblr got more dead and people went to twitter. Also tumblr reworked their search system so you could tag something properly but it would end up in the search because you used the ship name so the whole thing became useless for the most part. Part 6367 of Tumblr making itself obsolete.

To be completely honest, we still ended up with a fair bit of shipwars even with this system but at least things were more deliberate. You don't go into your ship tag and see a bunch of things you don't want to or get posts you don't like recommended by the algorithm. You had to consciously make the decision that you wanted to go fight with some randos over ships!

Considering that "normal" folks wouldn't log into this platform daily just to be miserable, staying in our own lane is indeed the sensible thing to do and not at all difficult. And for those of us who have been here for many years, we can understand the need for some basic etiquette, something that doesn't really apply to twitter and that behavior becomes very obvious here and fast. And I don't want to pressume this about everyone, but I know with what posts of mine I would be looking for trouble or not. There's nothing innocent/ignorant about it. But with the lack of labels for opposite stances or criticism or whatever, not tagging those posts and at least keeping them strictly on my blog seems like a good temporary solution. Regardless of number of followers, at least I didn't blast it in the tags for engagement and to create discord, yk?

Maybe it's my bad memory and it's indeed all a bit of a blur, but when I think of the jikook tag back in 2020 when I started reading the posts there, I don't remember being anything like it is today. It was fun and interesting to read theories or people posting about something new that took place, instead of talking trash or tagging each anon ask that was either from a taekooker or anti-shipper (basically spam).

there's a pattern with jungkook that i've noticed is that he doesn't like getting forced to do shit. and if he's not enjoying something that he used to anymore, he'll just stop doing it. and many times tkkrs were to blame imo.

when jk started doing his gcf films it used to be enjoyable to film + edit his footage and he generally did it as a hobby for fun. but after namjoon told him to make one with tae to get more views (as if he does them for numbers) and how the company made it an ot7 strategy to promote bts content, jungkook quit doing them altogether because they weren't as honest anymore.

then on instagram jk used it first as something fun, he was playing Q&A with army on his insta stories and replied to comments saying "stop holding jimin i'm jealous of you" and "jimin is mine" by saying "are you jealous? keep being jealous i'll keep holding on to jiminie. blublublublu 😝" and "he's mine!" respectively. tkkrs started mass spamming him with the same thing about taehyung until he replied with "he's mine." (there was a difference in tone) then he stopped doing Q&A altogether. and then he deleted his insta feed and tried to make it look more polished and professional and gradually stopped using the app at all. until tae came and made him do the joint insta live this year, after which jungkook deleted his insta once and for all.

then on weverse, jk keeps watching jimin content, singing jimin's songs, and tkkrs just had to spam him about tae multiple times in a row ("where's taehyung?", "when are you going to live with taehyung?", "taehyung said he wants to do a karaoke live with you", "did you listen to tae's album yet", "play winter bear"), and he stopped doing lives when they most needed him to.

now he's on TikTok, liking and commenting on videos he chooses to interact with, tkkrs are spam tagging him under taekook sex fan art and tae's dance challenge with NJ because he commented under jimin's, watch him stop using tiktok soon and inevitably delete the account completely and stick to an anonymous one.

so in short, jungkook's pattern is: doing things he enjoys -> shippers/company ruins it for him -> he makes his personal joy a business (eg: changing his creative @'s to more professional ones) -> inevitably gets sick of it and deletes account/quits hobby.

Hi anon!

I'm kinda sensing you are a Jkkr, since you make it seem like Jk only gets sick of things when it comes to comments about Tae.

I think what the main problem is, is that people are starting to make it a contest. And to Jk there is no contest between Jimin and Tae. Tae is his partner (imo) and Jimin is his friend. When fandom (shippers) start to pull for signs or hints, it is no longer enjoyable to Jk, because he does not want to share that much of himself. I know Jkkrs make the whole GCF’s as a reflection of Jk’s feelings.. but it’s not actually that deep imo. He shares his love for his members, but only superficially. Jk’s q&a was also just banter and superficial stuff. He likes banter, he likes being funny, he likes having fun with army. He does not like when people pry into his personal life. And that is what shippers (all shippers) do in his lives and now on his Tiktok.

Jkkrs are just as bad as Tkkrs in his comments. I would argue that a lot of non-shippers are just as bad in his comments as well.

i swear to god y’all jikookers spend more time talking about taekook than your ship, are you a jikook or anti-taekook blog? both sides have toxic people, just focus on jikook, they have more than enough moments to discuss. or at least please stop tagging your posts with taekook, not everyone is interested in your petty fights

And yet here you are, anon. What's wrong? Grownup logic chafing your asscheeks?

I tell you what. You keep your kids OUT OF MY GODDAMNED INBOX WITH THEIR DEATH THREATS AND BULLSHIT and I won't feel the need to point out their rabid stupidity in public. OKAY?

Let's see how effective you are at controlling the insane and the insipid. Because I block about twenty-three of you before lunch on any given day BUT YOUR ASS CAN STILL SEE ME AND FUCK MY INBOX WITH A RAKE DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW MANY ASKS I THROW AWAY IT'S LITERALLY A WHOLE DIAGNOSIS AT THIS POINT YOU PONTIFICATING PENISPULLER JUST STOP ALREADY DAMN

wow that was capitalist of me

BE MORE LIKE JIMIN I DARE YOU Meanwhile, you own a magic go-away button that you can use to make sure you never have to see the results of what happens when you feed your gremlins after midnight and let them loose on the internet.

To my Tkkr Anon 🥰

1. I think you forgot when I mentioned last time that @kanmom51 sends me these things. Lmao she said she was going to block you, but I'll answer 🥰 you not tagging me, doesn't mean I won't see it 😂

2. What part of my post was debunking or explaining away taekook moments? 😂 Am... am I not allowed to find them cute and talk about them anymore??? I was gushing over the way they clearly bond over and watch tons of memes and silly videos together. To the point where it's become their thing. Isn't... Isn't that what you guys are all saying too? You are just adding "omg husbands flirting" on it as well. I didn't even say it WASNT romantic, I just said didn't say that it was either. Talking in memes COULD be flirting, but it doesn't mean they are flirting either. Lmao I see it as something super cute, but I don't see it as flirting or Romantic. You CLEARLY disagree though and that is fine. I'm not here to change minds 😂 You aren't even the target audience for my posts, yet here you are anyway!!

3. If this was jikook, my post probably would have been EXACTLY the same as it was for taekook, but I'd have less meme material to work with since they don't meme at each other as much as taekook do 😂 I'd have the vminkook ones, the ONE dubsmash they did as 3J, and the Private Mingguk/Mingguk YouTube channel one (all of which I also included in the memes post for tkk as ones JK participated in too.) But that post still wouldn't have been for you either because I'm a JIKOOK BLOG lol

4. I don't think I've ever made a post about how jikook recreate het couples. Maybe I've done a romance movie reference post. Can't remember. But those are based off movies they've said they find Romantic or when they've literally subbed out their names for the character names. Meaning they've made it very clear they are recreating those characters. Lol Romeo and Juliet and Titantic for example. That's on THEM though, not me. They made that connection, not me. And automatically putting them into the role of husband and wife simply because of the meme they recreated were from a husband and wife YouTube channel is very heteronormative of you. Tae was being cute, you have no confirmation that he was trying to roleplay as JKs wife. (Although I do have proof of both vmin and jikook roleplaying as boyfriend/girlfriend together!) Lmao can't you just coo over Tae being cute for JK? I know that I CAN. The amount of people who found their Instagram "flirting" cute should be everyone.

5. "Don't forget to add I love tkk" lmao why do you want us to not like them? Like do you REALLY think we are all just like you and boo on other ships to validate our own? Wouldn't you APPRECIATE blogs that also appreciate your ship even if they disagree about what the nature of their relationship is? I really don't get this logic. Please feel free to explain to me why you don't want us loving them as friends just because we don't think they are boyfriends? Stop trying to push all your toxic narratives about how shipping works onto everyone else please. It's not how I do things here.

Anyways, I'm honestly just enjoying these messages everytime I get them. How many tkkrs do I have on here or is it just you everytime?? I feel like my posts are causing tkkr chaos with the way you guys keep feeling to need to reply to them, but to OTHER people too. Lmao

Me, watching the chaos unfold 😂

And finally anon, please. You don't have to be anon. Clearly you don't know that today seems to be taekook day over on my blog. You could have sent me an ask and been like "ahhh taekook so cute flirting on Instagram" and I would have been like "I KNOW THEY ARE SO CUTE" And we could have shared cute photos. So sad, what a missed connection we could have had 😭 alas

Anyways, taekook boyfriends anon. You are so right. Instagram confirms it. Love that for them! Soooo romantic those two together 😍 they recreate het memes and are so in love. Can they do October 3rd next? That would just totally confirm to me they are in love with each other. People who watch mean girls together are the only people who are meant to be together forever 😭😭😍😍 I can confirm, I've watched it with my husband and we are meant to be 🥰

Does this count as me throwing a tantrum over them talking about me again? Lol probably. 😂 Thanks for the laugh anon. I wonder if I'll see you in my inbox whenever I turn anons back on?
