oh lard

fwiw the "beyhive" also chased Rachel Ray off of Twitter and harassed her for a good while bc someone confused her with a model that may or may not have been the one Beyonce wrote a song about

Can't ever be as bad as Steven Universe fandom though.

OR CAN IT

nah but seriously fandom and fans are kind of scary if not harassing ppl it's like, the Cassie Claire kind of cult worship or House Wars or shipping wars goin on

oh god Steven Universe fandom

I still remember that scary Tumblr call to action where they called to OSTRACIZE THE BRONIES AND LET NO ONE RUIN THEIR PERFECT FANDOM.

Wait what about the Steven Universe fandom? I've never watched the show but it sounds like such a cute premise.

Oh my God, that poor girl. D:

Generally, I try to pushback against the idea of "social justice warriors" and defend tumblr activism, but there are times when I've had Lindsey Graham-level moments of, "This fandom is batshit crazy." This is one of those times. D:

I will never, ever defend social justice activism on Tumblr. I have more of a personal problem with GamerGaters, but both of them harbor predatory individuals and I've seen the worst of both.

I'll never forget how a non-binary friend of mine got banned from a LiveJournal community for "homophobia" just because they spoke up against dogpiling on one poor sap just for using the wrong words to describe something.

good point, if they can bring down trump himself, i can give them a pass even though they scare me.

i'm not good with the beyhive at all, they went after rachel roy's children (and i believe they're not adults, or some of them aren't adults).
