I love garmau in a tragic way
#she will never love him like he loves her and he needs to stop seeing her as the lord who saved him#a single guiding star in the sky#parasocial relationship behaviour#he sees her as a beacon#i love garroth having an unhealthy attachment to aphmau because he feels guilty for how good she makes him feel and how she saved him on#multiple occasions so he worships her#and sees her as an angel#she just loves him as a friend#i love angst okay?#garroth mcd#mcd#minecraft diaries#garroth ro'meave#mcd rewrite#garmau

truly the 911 fandom as a collective has to do so much better with interactions with the cast/crew/production/any REAL human who works on the show.
I don’t know it’s a certain age group, people who expect all celebrities to be influencers who are overly forthcoming with their personal selves, or just plain ol entitlement but lately I’ve seen (especially on twitter) some truly abhorrent behavior.
idc what you ship or don’t ship, we as the audience or not owed or entitled to a single damn thing. we are not owed certain storylines, we are not owed certain information or behavior from the cast.
the parasocial relationships many young people on social media seem to have developed breed such a dehumanizing and disrespectful discourse within fandom spaces and i’m sick of it.
actors are simply just people doing a job for pretty much the same reasons any of us have a career. what they happen to do for work does not automatically give anyone the right to speculation and/or direct prying into their personal life. (that’s weird)
i could go on and on about this and I welcome discourse about it but essentially i am so disappointed and embarrassed by a portion of this fandom that it pretty much ruins a lot of the fandom content I try to consume.

god i would HATE to have fans like this
now there are many VALID reasons to criticise taylor swift, but this is so fucking stupid. imagine having YOUR OWN FANS shaming you for your partying with your friends on your birthday in new york city (where you LIVE) because they think you should be catering to your man at every living moment.
also, asking when she’s going to have a baby with travis when they’ve only known each other for 3-4 months??
ever since she started dating that football player there’s been a SIGNIFICANT portion of her fanbase that wants taylor to get married and have travis’s babies as soon as possible. and they even talk about her retiring or taking a LONG break from music + touring just so she can pop out travis’s babies.
i would honestly want to KMS if i was a celebrity and my fans wanted me to leave my career to be a NFL housewife + baby maker.

Parasocial Relationship
Of course you'd love to meet the one
Whose face you have memorized,
But what can the little fan do
When the smile doesn't meet their eyes?
The lips, the nose, the hair--
You know it all very well..!
But that person does not know you
And they are so human it's hell.

With the news coming out on Wilbur Soot, a lot of people need to learn - or relearn - the signs of abuse before it gets to physical abuse.
A lot of people also need to remember that they have a parasocial relationship with these influencers and that none of us will ever know the whole story.
#wilbur soot#throwing in my little opinion of everyone needs a refresh on what abuse is#and then learn how this was abusive and how that makes him abusive#and how classic abusers are charming and likeable and sociable and manipulative#with repeated behaviours#and notice the patterns with it#and also just not have parasocial relationships with people you don't know because they will ultimately disappoint you#it's why people say never meet your idols#a lot of this fanbase are still kids so it's important we all know what to look out for in terms of abuse - especially emotional abuse#minecraft youtubers#abuse#abuse victims#physical abuse#textbook abuser#parasocial relationships#influencers

People, Parasocial Relationships, And ChatGPT
I wrote an incredibly long article about how people are developing relationships with Chatbots and how this isn't as out of character as we think human nature can be.
Trigger Warnings: Discussions of Bullying, Deviant from the norm human sexual behavior, Brief Mentions of DV and assault, as well as discussions of death and Grief.
I published it on Medium and I hope you all like it. It looks into the early 2000s, how they framed different forms of parasocial relationships, and how subjects like parasocial relationships with objects are understudied in a time when we all have access to objects that can talk back to us.
I am also editing the audio recording I made of this article to publish in an audio format in the near future.

minghao telling fans to just print the photocards themselves and he’ll take more selfies for them 😭😭😭 he is so real and i love that for him
#as a new kpopper i don’t understand the hype around pcs. honestly i think it’s a bit weird to be carrying their faces everywhere#also the parasocial relationship is crazyyy to be doing all that#anyway it’s so funny because pre-my kpopper phase i would’ve told everyone who wanted a specific pc to just print it#and they’d look at me all appalled like it’s a crime i even brought it up#ANYWAY glad to know the8 approves of this behaviour :D#he may be anti-delulu (which i think is a great thing btw) but he also encourages amazing financial decisions#i’m glad that he knows that buying merch is not feasible for everyone and provided a solution (albeit how indifferent he came across)#seventeen#minghao#ann

actually u know what im deleting that reblog bc i don't want to be mean sorry hgklfghkfh i assume the response to my post was meant in good faith HOWEVER i will make a separate post about the whole misa/light situation later bc i genuinely think this is a situation that has experienced some fanon drift due to three specific panels being so frequently divorced from context
#PLEASE stop telling me im excusing misa's abusive behaviour though T__T#the two main ships i post about are between u know a man who literally killed his boyfriend-the-torturer#and a guy who killed like three different people bc his parasocial relationship was just that strong#please please consider misa & light in this context they're not great but i'm not convinced that they are the biggest problem here

Me before a stream: streaming is a job. You can absolutely form parasocial relationships with streamers. They don't know you exist. Don't fall into this trap.
My monkey brain during a stream: hngh streamer friend shaped
Me after a stream: JAY WHAT THE FUCK
#having a bit of a thing#over the actual boundaries of parasocial relationships#is it weird that i want to buy an s23 bc i saw an ad with jhope on it DESPITE NOT BEING ARMY#its definitley weird when you start bullying people online over someone who doesnt know you exist#its vaguely weird to assume that you know everything about someone based on the persona they present to the public#probably kind of weird to want to try their favourite food just bc its their favourite food#crisising over here#like where are the boundaries between normal human behaviour and 'oh i have formed an unhealthy attachment to this man'#like its pretty normal to see some dude moaning over his food and be like huh i want to try that#but forcing yourself to enjoy a meal just bc someone else likes it is kinda weird but not as weird as stalking#i dont fucking know#where does it turn from oh this stream is background noise to oh i sent a hate anon to someone who criticised my bias#i dont know i really dont know *insert nie huaisang gif*#speaking of nhs when does it go from oh these two idols are cute together to these two idols have been married for 10 years and are hiding#it from us#when does a fan go from i enjoy their work to obsessed stalker outside their hotel roo.#and does it help what jackson wang does#where he makes himself like... touchable and approachable and less like a god than other idols???#or does that make the parasocialism worse somehow#can you tell ive been reading too much hannigram lately

Ive noticed that too…. Tbh im not sure exactly why it is bc i havent been a mbb long enough to know exactly when they started to oversuxualize and porject onto him so intensely but if i had to guess it would be since 2019-ish when he started to go from round-faced babie to chiseled hot guy. Overall i think ck is a pretty popular member (not sure if i can say The Most popular but he’s definitely up there) and i think its partially because he speaks English fluently and since they’ve started to promote and expand to a wider western audience this new wave of fans just picked him up bc he was more convenient to stan. Plus we can’t deny that he IS pretty charming and he does enable a lot of this delulu/projections with the way he interacts with fans (whether i agree with it or not is not really the point here but i think we know where i stand). Also over the time ive been into kpop ive observed that the more quiet and mysterious members are usually the more popular ones, and i was pretty surprised by that bc thats almost never the case for me kskdkdk
I really like to hear a ck stan’s pov on this. Also this is obv not the case with all of them but most of the ‘solo stans’ ive seen on this fandom have been ck stans. U know like fans who only care abt their own bias and maybe their wrecker.
Oh I wholeheartedly agree with you that he is indeed a pretty charming man.... he knows how to use his guiles to beguile... but even then, I've noticed that in the past, what two years maybe three since Love Killa (and Wonho's departure) actually, that there's a rise of a new kind of - like you said - solo Kyun stans. And like, the way they go about just talking about him kind of unsettles me a bit. Maybe I'm old, maybe it's because I come from a rock/metal background... who knows... But just like my sister noted (she too is a Monbebe and a Kyunbebe), these new stans don't even care about his music - they're mostly there for his looks .
I don't know, I guess I've seen one too many videos on the tiktok hypersexualising him... and it really has me wondering when it became a thing. But also, it's not just him, it's all the members but he just gets the brunt of it.
And yes, I too, would love to hear what Kyun-stans have to say about this/their perspective.
#On a side note#i feel like its very hard to be a solo stan with MX#like how can you not like ALL of them???#they're so unique in their dumbassery and bimbo behaviour that it's kinda hard to be a solo stan#oh and i am not even going to touch on the parasocial relationships and delulu behaviour lest I spiral into a psychology-fueled rant#conclusion: it feels like they're trying to force us to hypersexualise him/adopt their view of him#niki.asks#monsta x

People love to complain about parasocial relationships, but next time, before you complain, ask yourself, “Would the thing that’s bothering me be acceptable in other forms of relationships?”
#9/10 times I see people complaining about#parasocial relationships#it’s about behaviours and attitudes that would not be acceptable in other types of relationships!!

rb'ing OP's tags because important.
"the man we idolised turned out to be a bad person, but it's okay, this other man hasn't fucked up yet so we can just idolise him twice as hard!"
Do you people not see the problem
#did you see all the white women thirst blogging about keir starmer?#i wanted to blow up the earth#white liberals making progressivism into celebrity worship and celebrity worship into progressivism is just#they all want a saviour and a hero to take away the need for personal accountability and the work of self-interrogation#i just know that it's the 'fiction isn't reality!!' and anti-purity politics white queers on here doing this#like fuck ship discourse and antis but the whole point of framing ethical media engagement into a this zero sum game about censorship#has always been a thin veneer for white racists to escape accountability and ethical and self-reflective engagement with media#that's also the point about making this behaviour into a white western-centric culture war between generational cohorts#white people and neoliberal identity politickers are driven by the need to deproblematize their personal moral landscape#establish innocence and distance themselves from complicity#instead of getting justice for impacted communities and victims and addressing structural inequality#it has fuck all to do with age and everything to do with protecting privilege and moral superiority over marginalized people#anti neil gaiman#white liberals#parasocial relationships#identity politics

OK quick reminder to everyone about polite Internet behaviour;
- do not tag celebrities in NSFW or scam posts.
- do not speak to celebrities as if they are your personal friends.
- do not DM/tag offensive or "call out" discourse to celebrities.
- do not stalk or abuse ANYONE.
