i think it's time for fandom to accept that some AUs are simply A Bad Idea. your lilo and stitch au with two white dudes is a bad idea. your portrait of a lady on fire au with men is a bad idea. your encanto au with a white family is a bad idea. culture and gender and race *matter* in many source texts, and erasing or appropriating that in order to see your two favourite white guys hug is, you guessed it, a bad fucking idea.
#how about let's not put those particular guys in that particular situation#fandom racism#fandom misogyny#this isn't even touching on people creating aus based on actual real-world tragedies#like fucking holocaust aus#don't fucking do it!#these are all aus i have personally seen written/discussed btw#wish to god i were strawmanning but alas
