where do I even start .

《1.》
- "standom" is not a label to be encouraged considering its origin .
- "lanes" are taken way too seriously and shouldn't be a thing .
- twitter , instagram , discord , and facebook Cliques are all toxic in their own ways

▪︎ https://twitter.com/fallawaybandito/status/1291085246339874818
《2.》
- the Clique as a whole is worse than it's ever been .
- "Big Clikkies" aka large accs DO exist and so does the hierarchy .
denying their existence only serves to cover for bad behavior .
- the hierarchy is reinforced by the band and crew , not just the fans .

▪︎
《3.》
- the Clique is more competitive than anything . the loyalty and support expressed by many stans is mostly blind obsession and is SELF SERVING .
it is an attempt to gain status in this parasocial relationship .

▪︎
《4.》
- most #cliqueart isn't very inspired anymore . so much of it is done for clout .
whenever the band posts on IG , it's a mad scramble to churn out art of it ASAP to get noticed .
- cliqueartists treat Tyler like a vending machine . put art in , he spits a like out

▪︎
《5.》
- Tyler following individual cliqueartists was one of his worst decisions and it absolutely inflated the egos of said artists .
but the worst part is that it made the rat race of competition so , so much worse .

▪︎
《6.》
- the band absolutely has favorites .
and they should NOT invite fans backstage unless they FAIRLY won backstage passes .
- and the mess that the Clique is now is mostly the band and crew's fault .
they are feeding this fire , and they know what they're doing .

▪︎
《7.》
- @tylerrjoseph and @joshuadun have believed the hype and so have we .
the message HAS changed because of fame and success .
they have knelt to these concepts , and we followed suite.
we are hypocrites and narcissists , all .

▪︎
《8.》
- the band's apathy on important matters and their apathy at standing up for what they once believed in is WRONG .
they are overly passive and contradict the very words they performed for us .

▪︎
《9.》
- fans are overly obsessed with the band's families and need to cut it out .
stalkerish behavior is normalized in the Clique , but because it "happens in other fandoms" no one wants to talk about it .

▪︎
《10.》
- the Clique is no longer about the music or the message .
even theories are often shared for clout , not to make people think .
fans use this band as a crutch for lack of purpose , and Tyler and Josh are NOT helping anyone by encouraging this .

▪︎
《11.》
- cliqueartists are creating not for others or for a love of art , but for a moment's acknowledgement from people who will never know them .
- Tyler and Josh are not our friends . this is a PARASOCIAL RELATIONSHIP , and we need to stop giving them this power .

▪︎
《12.》
- large accs have an overly inflated view of themselves some definitely treat their followers like fans , or like numbers at the very least .
- the Clique as a whole is obsessed with "skinny ratios" and sucking up to large accs is normalized .

▪︎
《13.》
- I believe the band DID know about the sexual assault going on between crew members and fans and chose not to say anything .
- " the few, the proud, and the emotional" is the worst lyric in all of TOP's music and has hurt the fanbase beyond repair .

▪︎
《14.》
- "fake bullying" Tyler is no longer funny and is just an attempt to get noticed .
on the other hand , Tyler "fake bullying" fans is getting terribly old and isn't as charming as people think .

▪︎
《15.》
- it's not quirky and funny when the band acts arrogant "as a joke" .
it's gotten so bad over the years we might as well accept that they really are just that full of themselves at times .

▪︎
《16.》
- if the band hires a fan to do something like design merch , that will be the last nail in the coffin because it pushes the Ultimate Goal from being noticed , from being followed , to an entirely new level .
《17.》
- cliqueartists shouldn't monetize their art . that is all .

▪︎
《18.》
- #twentyonepilots knows what they're doing .
they're getting what any celebrities would want :
impossibly obsessed superfans with status who would do anything for them , even if it means hurting others .

▪︎
《19.》
- and us ¿
we're getting what we want .
our purpose is this band .
fueled by a false sense of success , we are content to fester under this low , low ceiling .
