was easy to let go of harry potter bc it wasn't autism food, i wasnt balls deep into the fandom and the extensive lore, even if i do still remember many facts from the books. meanwhile fnaf i consider to be hands down the biggest special interest of my life, ive been in that fandom since it began, waited for the movie this long, i remember watching lore videos, those hours long sfm movies. and like. on average twice a year I go back to watch markiplier play it bc thats how I got into both. and half the time it kickstarts the hyperfixation once again. My fnaf music playlist is hours long and full of bangers that regularly make it into my spotify wrapped. I can't explain how emotionally attached I am to the silly little robots and the silly little dead guys. They comfort me.

no like seriously, ive seen a few fellow lgbt folks and people in general still be into harry potter and five nights at freddy's like how do y'all do it. Like how is it possible to rationalize being invested into something where the creator is so hateful and bigoted?

ive tried over the past few weeks with FNAF after pirating the fnaf movie and liking it but like, it just feels hollow and wrong for me to do even if im not directly supporting it.

conflicted is the word i'd use so i'd really love to hear from either fnaf fans or harry potter fans on this topic

#and ive never spent a penny on fnaf #played the games back when they were free #haven't read any of the books and thats ok with me #i know whats in them #matpreg im looking at you #and i just try and cut out or ignore the content creators that are problematic #like scott himself #matpat (dont come for me on this)#mandopony #and more #also as far as the scale of loathing goes jk rowling the open transphobe who put a bunch of racist shit into her books is higher up #also also most of the fnaf fans are cool!!!#and the fanmade content we produce is honestly mind boggling #and i feel like a lot of the content is always #cool you made this??#yeah its mine now #yeah #no you can't have it back scott #like look at how many different michael designs people have made and theyre all!!! so cool!!#and so fruity it sooths my queer soul #meanwhile i dont know what goes on with marauders but i can say it scares me #i cant explain why its intimidating #essentially i think enjoying this media is about separating the art from the artist and all that #as i have only interacted with the games #the game lore #and not the books #and as far as game lore goes i dont see anything mind bogglingly problematic??#i dont associate the games with scott as a person #or his political beliefs #meanwhile jk openly put that shit in her books and so i dont want to engage with it anymore
