SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP

I’M SO SICK AND FUCKING TIRED IF PEOPLE PITTING CANON AND FANON AGAINST EACH OTHER LIKE FUCK YOU

IF YOU DIBT LIKE SOMETHING DONT INTERACT ITS NOT THAT FUCKING HARD

‘OMG WFA this, WFA that,” people enjoy it and you don’t. People can read it and accept it as canon in a different universe, it was my first Batfam comic, and it holds a special place in my heart, personally. People use WFA to introduce people to comics, to introduce people to the Batfam. It’s not meant to be considered main continuity

‘Damian doesn’t consider Dick a father figure’ okay??? So don’t interact with stuff that shows Dick being fatherly towards Damian???

I’m so tired of constantly trying to make sure I haven’t gotten a small detail of someone’s characterisation wrong in TikToks, posts, fics.

This is what’s wrong with fandom etiquette.

People read things and have different interpretations for the same thing, WHICH IS FINE, but don’t go bashing anybody who disagrees with your opinion for it.

None of you people understand that Fanon is an oversimplification of characters, a lot of the time, in order to lure people in to interact with the media without overloading on trying to read DECADES WORTH of source material

Hal was a pedo, ‘but it was retconned’ yeah, it was. Things get retconned, canon changes.

Nothing is real. The sooner you accept that, the better it is for everybody in the fandom.

‘Why isn’t fandom fun anymore :(‘ cause you’re policing headcanon, slightly OOC characterisations, bashing fics, bashing art, no one wants to be a part of toxic fandom spaces, and YOU ARE MAKING THSI FANDOM TOXIC

Anyone commenting ‘oh but WFA did this, WFA did that’ you’re proving my point.

Let people enjoy what they want and don’t get upset because people don’t like your canon.

‘WFA disrespected canon by sidelining the brown kids and girls’ that’s your opinion, okay. That’s the way YOU perceived it. I, genuinely, have no problem with WFA, as a brown girl myself who is an avid batfam fan.

If you’re going to romanticise canon so much, then to you, Grant Morrison’s Talia is still true. Hal’s still a pedo. Bruce is abusive. Idgaf what you want to read or believe about the characters or the plot, in canon and in WFA, because that’s YOUR opinion, not mine.

And also, if the only problem you want to complain about in my original post is WFA, you missed the ENTIRE point of the post.

SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP
