♒ Thoughts on the fandom you’re currently rping in?
ONE LONG LOUD SCREECH OF LAUGHTER
ok like to be Fair, the majority of the fandom has gotten their heads screwed on properly over the years (keep in mind im talking abt the xm//cu fandom specifically rather than the General M//arvel or General xm//en fandom u kno); it used to be a COMPLETE shitshow
that being said,,, there’s still an overwhelming group of people,,, who get on my tits like no one else does,,, the ableist che//rik shippers,,,
theyre the ones who produce all the fandom content where magda, raven, emma, angel, moira, any other single man within a similar age range that could possibly be shipped with either of the mcs are conspicuously absent, evil or abusive. the ones who flood the Entire Fanfic List with che//rik fics where charles either never lost his legs or regained them Permanently; the fix-it fanfic writers who fix cuba but not the fact that darwin was murdered, get more upset about alex’s death compared to the death of the entire poc cast from first class. who insist on raven being a lesbian when she’s canonically either bisexual or pansexual (though, my personal hc leans more towards bisexuality) or a child or write huge rants about how erik/raven is UNETHICAL to ship when it was teased for do//fp because he Manipulated her and it’s just Gross or citing age gaps when raven canonically looks young because of her mutation which slows her ageing and is in fact not too far off age-wise from charles and erik all in the name of false progressiveness to hide the fact that they hate that there’s women who are shippable with charles and erik – that they hate women. who do the same for comic canon magda – villainizing her for leaving erik after erik essentially razed vinnitysa to the ground, insisting she was abusive for leaving him – and ranting about movie canon magda and anya being whitewashed and that’s why they hated it when they said nothing about “peter” from dofp and happily Headcanon���d away that he’d be like charles and erik’s son and said nothing about the whitewashing of kitty. like lmao ya’ll are TRANSPARENT AS FUCK and i cant believe i still have to write in this climate and that certain elements of the fandom havent changed since 2012.
there’s so much more that pisses me off but u know this is a Good Chunk of it. if u don’t believe me, just go through any of the movie confessions blogs and watch the horror unfold within like 30 seconds (:
