"BTS ARMY, as one of the most the most influential fandoms in the world"

I have to laugh at how this statement and shocked how fandoms in general have been an actual entity outside of niche corners.

That said it's nice that they came together to raise money for Palestine. I think when Megan thee Stallion collaborated with BTS, the army donated to various black-women based charities too.

OMG when they recovered the BTS merch from the rubble :((((((

I'm also laughing at how blunt and shady the video is when the caption reads, "many social media users worldwide are boycotting celebrities who are pro-israel or who have been silent on the war in Gaza" and they use footage of Amy Schumer and Taylor Swift.
