#i'd tag her name but unfortunately tumblr doesn't like showing posts on the tag if they're tagged with it???

Hey guys, new RWBY season drops in like two days, so I just wanted to make a post because every time we get a new season, we also get A. An increase in people posting RWBY criticism. B. An increase in people complaining about seeing RWBY criticism. And C. An increase in people asking what RWDE is. So I thought I'd give some advice on how to avoid criticism (if you want to) and posting criticism (if you want to.)

This is one of the only times I'm using the main RWBY tag, I usually try to avoid it since I'm a RWBY critic. I'm using it now in an honest effort to help, please no one send me hate anons. :)

What is RWDE? RWDE is a tag used for any and all criticism of RWBY. The fact that it's a play on the word 'rude' doesn't actually mean the criticism must be mean spirited. Most people who post in the rwde tag were ordered to by other rwby fans who demanded we use the tag as a filterable (and not use the main rwby tag either,) so we didn't really choose the name, and use it as a courtesy to other fans. RWDE is used for anything from complaints saying the whole show is a wreck to the tiniest nitpick. Like any tag, people who use 'RWDE' range in opinions, there's no 'rwde hivemind,' I myself have been in fights with other RWDE posters in the past.

What to do if you don't want to see RWBY criticism? Filter out the 'rwde' tag, as well as 'anti rwby' and 'rwby criticism.' This is pretty simple. Just go to your settings, scroll down to the 'content you see' section, go to filtered tags and click the little edit icon, you'll get the option to add a tag to filter. If you do this, then Tumblr will hide posts tagged with 'rwde' from you, and you'll have to make an active choice to seek it out. If there are certain characters you'd like to avoid seeing criticism of, rwde posters frequently use anti character tags as well. I personally have 'anti Blake Belladonna' filtered out because I don't like to see too many posts complaining about her. Another trick is looking up rwby with a hashtag # at the front like #rwby, which I've heard helps avoid the 'this post mentions rwby and therefore appears when you search 'rwby' even if it isn't tagged' feature (which I know is a headache to deal with.) Also please don't avoid blocking out of some belief that it makes you a coward or a bad person, the block function is for everyone's benefit, and if you continuously see someone posting things that annoy you or are just taking up space or you just don't really wanna see, blocking them is a good way to get them out of your life without any fighting.

What to do if you want to criticize or critique RWBY? First off, criticizing RWBY at all in any way is something that does come with a risk. This fandom can be really toxic towards critics and defensive of the show to the point where even minor objective nitpicks will be called hysterical fits of rage. It's unfortunate, but if you want to post criticism, it's best to be aware of what you're getting into. I suggest using the rwde tag when you criticize despite the venom against it, because that's the most well known criticism tag and is the one most likely to have been filtered out by people that don't like seeing criticism. Not using the rwde tag might result in you getting people in your comments or ask box angry at you for the fact that they saw your posts. If you want to critique without being associated with 'rwde' and don't want to use that tag there's only so much you can do (popular RWBYtubers have been labeled rwde just for criticizing RT,) but you can use tags like 'crtq' and 'rwby criticism' and 'rwby critique' that might get less of a venomous response. Also I would again suggest that you be free with the block button.

If you heard something about how horrible rwde and rwby critics are... Please actually look into actual rwde posters and read actual rwde posts (in their entirety, not just screencapped parts of posts) before you believe anything from other people. Just because someone says 'rwde posters think X, Y, Z' doesn't mean it's true, and again there's a wide range of opinions you'll see from rwde posters. I'm not saying you have to like us or seek us out or anything (again, you've got the filter and block option and I suggest people who don't like criticism do so and we'll leave each other alone,) but don't buy into the 'htdm' stuff without even looking to see what's true and what isn't please and thank you!

Anyway, whether you're looking forward to the new RWBY season or dreading it, good luck on Saturday!

So, I'm going to preface this by saying that I'm a big fan of Amanda, but, you know, my two cents: I think its fine if her personality kind of grates at you a bit or you don't think her sense of humor meshes with yours. I'm sorry you were getting death threats, that shouldn't happen. You're right in the sense that you're allowed to feel that way and people getting mad at you for that doesn't do much.

That said I think if you're not looking to try to explain yourself/justify your distaste, you'd probably benefit from more explicitly tagging and curating the audience for your commentary. Like I dont think posting this in the "amanda lehan canto" tag on tumblr will get you the circle of people you want it to get to. I would strongly recommend, at least per tumblr culture, tagging it something like "anti amanda lehan canto" or something else, or at least taking her tag out. I dont know about the equivalent tagging culture on reddit. But in general if you go into a space with a lot of neutral to positive sentiment and drop a VERY strongly negative opinion, its jarring and can be off putting even if people might not disagree with specifics of the opinion. "smosh discourse" or "smosh negativity" might serve you better? idk.

(Also on a more general note, something that's helped me when I was frustrated with an online personality, beyind just disengaging, was just. Actively trying not to read their behaviours as intentional or malicious. When i was irritated by someone, looking at their behaviours (when not avoiding then entirely) through the lens of "ugh look at them doing x or y because of z" would always actively make me more angry or frustrated, be almost purely speculative, and seep into things that were probably actually innocuous, and with no benefit. Going "they're doing x" but actively avoiding speculating that it was for an intentional reason helped a ton with bringing "they're doing x and it fills me with rage" down to "they're doing x which is not to my taste but oh well". Like. You're allowed to be irritated and not mesh well with some online personalities you see, but I'd REALLY advise against assigning intention/malice towards these things that frustrate you.)

(I guess I could elaborate on why i think the pop culture thing is occasionally played up for the bit but is largely genuine- people exist online in DRASTICALLY different ways- but i dont know how much that actually matters to you, lol.)

On your first point, yeah I forgot the “anti” part of the tag. I’ll fix it, though it will still show up in her take since her name is in it.

And Reddit doesn’t have tags so I can’t really curate anything there, unfortunately.

And when I do see her in a video, I do try to not see malice in her actions, and I usually don’t, but it’s still too much for me. Like just her presence annoys me. I can’t help it, but even her just standing around bothers me. Like yeah I get that everyone else finds Sarah Christ to be the pinnacle of comedy, but I don’t get the jokes so I don’t find her funny. I get that she’s supposed to be funny, but I don’t see it. I don’t mind that others enjoy it, though. I mind that they’re gatekeeping feelings.

But thank you for hearing me out and being civil. Smosh Reddit is not as wholesome as they want to be (I literally have about 3 different people right now attacking my username on Reddit for commenting that I don’t find the “Amanda doesn’t know the internet” bit funny).

they're back on their "Darren doesn't get any sleep" bullshit again, so I'd like to remind everyone how the tinhats were all reblogging this quote a few weeks ago to the complain about Darren not working enough. but hey, it doesn't fit the narrative anymore so they're back to ignoring it. valentinahart * tumblr * com / post / 186291829708 / valentinahart-how-are-you-finding-the-time-to-do

They clearly need reminding as they were devastated his career was dead a few weeks ago. I grabbed a few more comments- all of these are from July 14 to now. Basically- According to Abby-ATA- he is not doing anything relevant, his career is dead, nobody is buying tickets to see him (at his very well attended shows), Royalties is a shit show of epic proportions because it is like 10 mins of content and nobody wants to watch so why waste the 4 days of work to make that series. Ccers -including Abby- are hoping Royalties “fails”: 

July 14th 

How are you finding the time to do theater, writing and acting?Darren:

-Well, I’m late to a lot of things, that’s for sure. Wink. I’m sort of a masochist. I’m a glutton for punishment. I like being occupied. Artistic people always keep ourselves occupied all the time. That’s how I work and function and unfortunately that is how I create although it could be very stressful. Literally when I wasn’t shooting (“Glee”) I was in my trailer finishing the score for my show. I was like this in college. I was the guy who over-extended himself way too much. Probably flaked out more than he needed to. I got a lot done, but also let a lot of people down. It was tough. I’ve always been interested in so many things that it takes a toll eventually. I’m always sick. I don’t get enough sleep. But I just love it. I talk to my friends, “Yeah, so you’re saying you’re sick all the time, you’re late and you’re working on too many things. It sounds like nothing’s changed, man.. It’s like nothing has changed except you’re making money instead of getting Cs and Ds.” You spend a lot of time in your car in L.A so I take calls in the car, I’m always writing. I write on my hands as well. Always creating. Always writing. Always talking as well.

If Starkid shows are not sold out, does that mean D is not bringing them in like he use to? He is the MAIN draw! I can remember when just the mention of his name meant instant sell-out. Kind of sad if this is the case. Are people tired of all the hoopla and overdose of marriage?

Hard to know anon, but D is not doing anything career wise right now that wakes him widely relevant (again no real work in months and months beyond his one song with SA  and I am sorry, the TB commercial does not count) and SK’s appeal is limited to a small group.

Sadly if the only project D will has is royality I think will has too much free time for M...

Way way too much. Way too much. That’s why I have to believe in him and remember how much he’s fought and pray he’s got a plan. Because as I’ve been reminded, as distressful as it is for me, he’s the one living it.

Good. Please let them film and be done with it.

What scares me is that it seems to be not just that the Team is NOT trying, but also that NO ONE seems interested in pursuing him. This is the man that won all those awards for ACS. This is the man who sings his heart out every chance he gets. And yet there seems to be no one beating down his door. Why not? It can't be M because they could ban her from the set. And there are other managers that don't have the best reputation, so what the hell is going on??

Excellent question which is why I have to believe it is deliberate. Nothing else makes sense nonnie.

I really enjoyed not seeing D for several days in a row and I hope he got the rest he needed to regroup and refresh before the shitshow that will inevitably be this weekend.

I wish for M/eredith a day where her guests remember she is the bride.
