Damn, ARMY using their collective powers for good? Good for them!

[umilicious]

It’s nice to see them using their organizing power for good. ngl, I wouldn’t expect it from a lot of k-pop stans, especially since a lot of that subculture promotes mass consumption and spending to show support for their faves. I hope that other major fanbases will start to put pressure on their faves and their labels like this.

Hey good for them! It's always nice to see people organising for good. If only other fandoms would catch on to help too!

Please have more of these movements im teary eyed every other time i run into the horrific videos of innocent people dying losing their arms or legs 💔🙏

Its always nice to see annoying super fans do good in the world. Theres an effort to keep it in balance. Yin and yang. Why cant swifties be this way???

[stillglows]

some swifities have been raising money for palestine. they raised an initial $13000 when her tour started again and now focus on helping gofundmes. https://x.com/SwiftChange13 it would be nice if more of them took part but at least some of them are trying.
