Miss me with the “bucktommy fans infantilize buck” bullshit because that nonsense existed long before s7 aired. I have thousands of buddie fics bookmarked and I can honestly say that I’ve read a good majority of what’s on ao3. That means I’ve come across Those lawsuit fics (you know what I’m talking about) and all of the fics that manage to center buck as the victim of many scenarios that had nothing to do with him. Let’s not forget the collection of buddie fics that had the most vile racist shit in the aftermath of 5x04 and the ones that have eddie abusing buck for no reason other than to make him some uwu victim.
And just to be very clear, the infantilization of buck took center stage when a bunch of people decided to clutch their pearls over the dinner scene in 7x10 when this man has a history of stealing municipal vehicles to fuck and having semi-public sex on the regular. No one started screaming/crying/throwing up when he very much admitted to his own sister that he uses cock rings, but the second tommy’s name entered the chat a lot of y’all lost all common sense.
Even in the last damn episode people were lashing out at tommy AND eddie for not babying buck to their satisfaction. The majority of that wasn’t coming from the bucktommy side of the fandom, folks. Are there a few bucktommy shippers that do/say/write awful shit? Yeah. But unless you as a buddie shipper are willing to take responsibility for every single rancid take in the buddie tag both here and on ao3, I’d suggest that you stop trying to lay generalizations on the entire bucktommy fandom and expecting us to do what you won’t.
