THREAD OF PROBLEMATIC THINGS BTS HAS NOT APOLOGIZED FOR https://twitter.com/kpopexposeddd/status/1317252881553281025
1. Video depicting Taehyung/V purposely mimicking Buddhist culture because of the mask he is wearing despite never claiming Buddhism as his own religion. This incident was never apologized for. #BTS #KPOP #ARMY
2.1 The Ego MV depicts a scene w/ statues & texts from different religions. Pictured: a Buddha head, the Virgin Mary, & what many speculate to be a Quran with prayer beads. Mixing sacred items together is disrespectful to each religion involved+
#BTS #ARMY
2.2 It considered disrespectful to purchase and display Buddha heads ornamentally. Additionally, a crystal ball, commonly associated with witchcraft/scrying, is also displayed on the table top which has been historically condemned by religious groups. +
2.3 It is clear that caution was not used when decorating this scene. Sacred symbols should not be used like this especially for aesthetics.

2.4 J-Hope’s solo MV ‘Ego’ is using his face in place of various gods from different cultures.
1. Odin (Germanic)
2. Mithras (Indo-Iranian)
3. Jupiter (Roman)
4. Ra (Egyptian)
It is very disrespectful to deface deities from cultures you aren’t apart of
3. Jin being fat-phobic again, says he wanted to call Jimin a pig whenever he asked if he gained weight. Jimin is known to have had many issues with his weight yet Jin continues to joke about him being fat.

4. Taehyung/V tells a fan her clothes are too “racy” (야하다) and then makes her promise that she will cover up a bit more next time.

5.Jin equates homelessness to being recognized on the street as a celebrity. Arrogance is a disease and he is sick.

6. BTS tweeting that a women should show skin in the winter because “that’s how men like it.” No apology made for the misogynistic tweet.

7. Suga mocking Native American names + RM imitating a fake war cry. Army’s worked deligently to remove this video from the Internet; no apology has been made.

8. Jimin told RM he looks like a Māori Chief. The Māori are the indigenous Polynesian people of New Zealand, and no one has apologized for this incident.

9. After RM supposedly changed his ways about CA, he went on to tweet a throwback picture of him doing CA...in 2017. Has he really learned his lesson?
#ARMY #BTS #KPOP
10. Jimin used the Korean equivalent of the N word to describe how Jungkook looks tanned. Army’s tried to convince others, that is not the meaning of the word, but even native Koreans know it is the N word. No apologize from Jimin has been issued for this
11. All/most members of BTS singing the N word; no comments or apologies were made for this incident from any member.

12. J-Hope and Suga appropriating black hairstyles; there has been no comment from either member about the issue.

13.1 In 2015, RM/Namjoon guest starred in an episode of variety show Problematjc Men. In episode 2, he was asked what book he recommends since he noted that he liked to read a lot. He RECOMMENDED Ryū Murakami’s “Almost Transparent Blue” +
13.2 The host asks if this is a sexual novel, RM answers yes. He goes on describing the book as “vain & promiscuous” & says he received “second-hand satisfaction” from reading it, & everyone laughed. It’s clear he meant that he masturbated to this novel+
13.3 Unfortunately, this is not a normal erotica-type novel. The sexual scenes within are highly graphic and there are scenes of violence, abuse, and rape. One particular scene includes a black woman which the author stereotypically describes +
13.4 I’m attaching the aforementioned scene from the novel and a translation from the TV program but PLEASE read the excerpt with caution as it is very graphic. THIS is what RM/Namjoon was getting “secondhand satisfaction” to +
13.5 ARMY knew about this as well, but instead of highlighting the inappropriate qualities of the book, they praised RM/Namjoon for talking about enjoying himself sexually while reading it. “Secondhand satisfaction” is a long-running joke in the fandom
