This is a follow up to our previous post that you can read hereFor context, BTS member Suga (Min Yoongi) recently released his long-awaited second mixtape last week. The mixtape was met with mostly positive reception until it came to people's attention that a sample used on the track What Do You Think was actually from one of infamous cult leader

fans of this group are amongst the most deluded and insane ive ever interacted with, and i used to be an elf lol. ARMY is a straight up cult. Incapable of thinking for themselves, and their own spaces (twitter, r/bangtan) censor negative commentary and any independent discussion really that isnt praising these men up the ass. They’re bullied by their own fandom to stay in line and to spend their money wherever bighit tells them to. People have been doxxing and giving death threats to the people who originally brought this up, there is a ARMY blacklist of fans who dissented and didnt support this grown ass edgelord. And the sheer mental gymnastics of everyone twisting this into some Pro-Korea statement just for BH to come out and say it had no meaning, SHRIEK!!! 🤡 Can y’all not draw the lines and see what mess you’re apart of, especially international fans who are buying into all this bullshit? I know kpop is manufactured and sold in a way that promotes obsession but this is honestly fucking beyond. ARMY is what drove me out of giving a rats ass about BTS within a month of trying to get into them, lol.

The best part is that they’ve been paraded as these woke kings who care about their fans time and time again, and its been used by their fans to claim superiority over literally every other person in this industry. But they’ve been misstepping left and right from debut, including their cringe ass concept. But their fans are brainwashed, there is no reasoning with them. Imagine doing all that for someone who literally doesn’t care about you or know you exist? They just want your money. He even brags about it.

The r/bangtan thread on his apology legit scares me. The amount of people saying he was set up by antis instead of just admitting he messed up is baffling.

I'm like 90% sure I got added to a new Army blacklist for tweeting about this (with HEAVILY censored thoughts btw, I went very easy on him). Since tweeting about it, I've been blocked by almost 40 new accounts LOL. They really are a cult.

How can you tell when you've been blocked? I posted two tweets about this incident on an unlocked account and I'm curious if any of them found me.

i barely ever tweet (i mostly rt) and i've been blocked by 1k accounts, usually whenever i find out i'm blocked by someone it's an army so i'm sure i'm on some kind of blocklist

Also a former ELF here and I agree with everything you've said. I've seen a lot of shit over the years but ARMYs are by far the worst fans I've encountered in Kpop (never mind the fact that their heads are so big now they get super mad if you dare to call BTS "Kpop" lol). They're a complete embarrassment.
