Yeah, it honestly makes my blood boil when some people act so self-righteous and morally superior, when deep down they don’t really seem to stand for any genuine values or beliefs. The way they speak and act has genuinely made me feel less than human at times.
But anyway, I really just wanted to thank you for being such a positive light in this fandom and for always encouraging empathy and kindness toward others. It truly means a lot to know there are still people like you (and your friends as well) around. Seeing you on my timeline always makes me feel safe and welcome.
acting morally superior when it comes to fictional media is genuinely just fruitless. especially when those "morals" don't extend to the way they treat actual human beings. or when they don't stop to think how their words and actions affect thinking feeling individuals other than themselves. I know what you mean…their words can be extremely dehumanizing and there's never a need for it. idk it just upsets me to see those things because I know how damaging it is. and I always just imagine the people that it's affecting silently even if they don't say anything. I'm very bad at not saying something in those cases. so, I guess I've just resigned myself to the trouble it ultimately brings me LOL if it makes others feel safe and validated in any way then that's worth it for me.
and I'm not perfect by any means. I have feelings and get frustrated and speak emotionally just like anyone else. but I do hope that people know I just want others to feel comfortable as much as possible. <3 thank you for telling me that it's come across that way to you!! it makes me very happy to hear.
