Someone you think is "problematic" playing from the same fandom you do is not a personal attack on you. This is not the first time you've thrown a little fit over someone invading "your" fandoms and making you uncomfortable by playing in a fandom that is "yours".

You're overinvested and possessive and victimizing yourself over others playing in the same fandom is frankly pathetic.

Ew, name and shame. I don't want to be playing with someone who might get super over sensitive about something they're not even involved with.

Drop that plurk username

This is always funny when the canon itself is a problematic one

and in my experience it's a problematic canon like 80 percent of the time

lmao when they're like:

HOW DARE YOU SHIP AGE GAPS OR TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS IN

JOJO'S BIZARRE ADVENTURE!!!!!!!!

as a former jojo, that was precisely the canon i was thinking of

like if that's such an issue for you why are you here when jojo as a canon has way trashier than the output of most fanartists

seriously lmao. jojo's is the one I think of first too but I've even seen it with really fucking problematic shit like devilman. I just don't know why they watch/read the canons to begin with when every single thing about it is apparently a trigger to them

(the secret is that they like the problematic stuff, they just don't like other people enjoying things either without them or being better (at fanart or writing) than they are aka getting more attention than they do.)

The person op described reads more like someone who cant share

specifically with "problematic" members with "problematic" ships

it's the exact same playbook, anon

yeah idk why ayrt doesn't think these things are wholly separate. the venn diagram is usually a circle

The ‘problematic’ player with the ‘problematic’ ship isnt as toxic as the person trying to ‘claim’ the fandom for themselves

yeah, what??? since when do people who like ~problematic~ shit = people who can't share fandom with others

Read the top level it’s about someone who is a fandom with a problematic person *not* being able to share said fandom with problematic person

Word. You cant tell others what fandoms they like or dont - unless you are in Soviet Russia

who said this

seriously, where did you read this in this thread

this just in, stupids

two things can be toxic at the same time

Problematic person is debatable given we cant all like each but there is no excuse for trying to bully anyone out of something they enjoy problematic person or not the person trying to bully someone out of a fandom is always worse

NAME DROP NAME DROP

or they feel guilty about liking the thing and feel they have to be a performative "good person"

Op please out this person theres no room in any fandom for those who can’t share any fandom

This! These are the toxic people of fandom

what the fuck does the word "problematic" even mean anymore

it means "anything (they) don't like that is more popular or has more content than thing (they) do like"

This person is problematic being with the fandom. anyone who whines and cant share a fandom with someone they dont like; they are the problem

Fandom is for everyone to share
