can i ask what your grief is with the decharts? pure curiosity, i've been out of the loop for a while
to be honest with you, i’ve been out of the loop as well and i think that’s a form of self-care, loves xx however, that’s also the thing...even if you are not “in the know”, there really hasn’t been much that has changed (that i have seen).
the main grievance i have with bryan (and the two as a whole because they’re basically one entity at this point) is his/their overwhelming dominant presence within the fandom. he fostered the incredibly harmful behavior to shift the focus of a game that’s basically slavery simulator who had a black man at the helm of the revolution to be recognized as human to focus on the cute white cop. you cannot go down the dbh tag or be in the fandom without seeing a lot of content about connor and hank (and to add, because of that whole “i’m only going to focus on the white character” racist behavior, there has also been a staggering amount of content for gavin reed and rk900...but that’s another lecture). bryan doesn’t seem to acknowledge markus, a black man, and kara, a woman, as if they’re not important so it tells the (it’s mainly his at this point) fandom that hey, let’s forget about markus and kara and just shift our focus on connor. bryan has more than likely seen this go down and did NOTHING about it. he enables that white savior/white-centric narrative. that man has only fueled that culture of dbh being like a connor-only event and has never corrected anybody. that is the most dangerous thing the man (and her) have ever done. those two and their fandom have even made it to the point where quantic dream has seen the response of them and have used connor as a marketing tool. the game is being presented as the story of a white cop, one who is a literal slave catcher, who will either aid in the revolution for android autonomy or stay a machine. the actual story (though terrible) is being reduced to connor (even if the gameplay hasn’t changed) and it’s just...awful. how does continue to profit off a game that isn’t his? a game about history that isn’t theirs to profit off of? such BULLSHIT gosh they’re so annoying...the illusion of a quirky white couple who seem relatable feels like a front (i am NOT criticizing their marriage, i am criticizing their online presence as a couple). they may very much actually be like that and go off, hens but..their internet personas seem so manufactured.
he hasn’t shown any sort of sign of stopping and it’s SO pathetic. love, it’s been nearly two years and you are still milking this shit? you got merch that is nothing BUT about the game? a shitty game made by a shitty racist and perverted white french guy? like sorry to this man but i do not know him, hens xx not to stroke his mf ego but he is a brilliant actor but he is wasting such talent and skill to become a hollow husk of a man. there is no genuine emotion to him anymore, he feels so fake and commercialized...like i hope y’all know he doesn’t care about his fans, neither of them do. they only care about your money, your views, they only care that you are fueling their bank account. they put up a front, henny, oh i know they do because there is absolutely no way anyone is actually like that. and as for his wife, she’s complicit to this whole thing and hasn’t spoken up about anything as well. she uses her side character as some like revolutionary, white feminism, #girlboss, gay rights icon or whatever...that activism is super baseline that it basically means nothing. it’s one thing to be like “oh, i support this!” but it’s another to actually analyze your own behaviors, biases that one carries, and go and unlearn ignorance and educate yourselves on things you may not know much about. they’re both like that...it’s just so mf annoying like go on, girlies! give us nothing!
