CANCEL CULTURE. y’all gotta stop expecting everyone to be perfect or have the same opinions as you and ‘cancelling’ them when they don’t or over things from when they were young/have since apologised for. this obviously doesn’t apply for people who have done genuinely bad things.
clarification on cancelling: by ‘young’ i mean teenage years. i KNOW some of y’all said mad shit as a young teenager that you would never say now. kids are impressionable and say things that they later realise is wrong
drama. idk who needs to hear this but y’all are SENSITIVE. the amount of drama here over tiny things is ridiculous. calm down and take a break for a sec.
telling people they *have* to unfollow a certain person because of certain drama. if it is a valid reason, e.g. they’re a massive racist or smth, warn people, yeah. but if it’s over personal drama, don’t manipulate people to fit your ideals.
SUBTWEETING. yes we all do it but in a perfect world we’d take beef up with the person directly. subtweeting just gains you a bunch of people being like “whomst???”. this is just a personal pet peeve of mine. don’t sb on main if you don’t want people getting curious
fancams. don’t get me wrong, i love a good fancam, but if i see another tweet with floods of k-pop fancams in the replies or if i see that fucking live of aidan gallagher on my tl again i s2g
getting into fights abt/being very aggressively opinionated on fictional characters. they’re not real people, and not everyone is going to share your view. the beef is pointless.
assuming the person/character you stan is superior to all others and putting down the characters/people close to or around them to prove yours is better. while my previous point of characters not being real stands, this causes pointless fights & (1/2)
honestly, why put down a real person’s friends? they wouldn’t think you’re their number one fan for doing that. thankfully, i haven’t seen this happen often. i just thought i’d add it (2/2)
the general aggressiveness i see from some parts of stan twitter; why?? being mean to people doesn’t make you cool
this kinda loops back to my drama point, but y’all have a real inability to get along nicely, let’s be honest. not everyone is going to hold the exact same values as you, and you can still get along with those people. (obviously this excludes people who hold harmful values)
i don’t really have any more, but if i think of any i’ll add them. i’m not coming for or attacking anyone with this thread, these are just my personal opinions/views, and if you disagree with them i’m obviously not gonna make you agree with me.
