Bryan Fuller Likes NSWF Hannibal Fanart, Fandom Has A Meltdown
The homophobic and puritanical rhetoric being used by "fans" to silence a gay man for queer liking fanart of his own series is utterly indistinguishable from garden variety bigotry you hear from conservative politicians.
Modern fandom is broken. https://t.co/AwkQZTfviz

Bryan Fuller, the showrunner of Hannibal, liked a nwsf fanart of Hannigram (Hannibal Lecter/ Will Graham) and (teen?) twitter fans were scandalised
the art in question (nsfw)
I suppose I’m more sick as fudge than you are.

I’m not disgusted by Art. I’m disgusted by cruelty. I’m disgusted by hate. I’m disgusted by those who would shame others for expressing themselves creatively.

I'm so angry, I'm so tired and frustrated with this antis’ bullshit, Bryan Fuller is a total blessing and I don't want him to leave his account because of these morons, he's already less active here than before, leave him alone. pic.twitter.com/nq7wQPnluH

these are fictional characters that just have their appearance, please learn how to differentiate fiction from reality

So strange and confused that in the screenshots these people probably are fans of hannibal and they say sth like that...

I've said this before but does anyone else feel like modern fandom has gotten super aggressive & literal lately? Everything is taken in bad faith. Liking certain ships gets you labelled pro-abuse. Liking fanart is now disrespectful? Can we please try harder?

I'm sorry that Hannibal fandom has been hijacked by homophobic teenagers after the show was put into Netflix. Fannibals still stand with you, many of us are part of lgbt+& condemn all the online harassment these new arrivals have brought here. We will always love you @BryanFuller
