tbh i think the reason i’ve come to resent the wc fandom’s “fan content is always objectively better and more competent than canon” attitude is because it’s made a lot of people act like the fandom itself is above criticism, that you can just hide behind every accusation with “well that’s my opinion and you have to respect it.” like i’m sorry but this fandom has proved more than capable of churning out the exact same racist, sexist garbage that the erins themselves do. maps where imagery clearly meant to invoke indigenous culture is boiled down to some sort of exotic “aesthetic” you can use to make the atmosphere more “whimsical,” animators being commissioned to animate someone’s fursona killing a female character they don’t like… these things don’t exist in a vacuum are just as deserving of criticism as the racism and misogyny present in the books themselves. and also it makes me get the impression that this in part is due to a lot of people who criticize the books not actually realizing what truly makes these books bad, like all they’re looking at is the spelling mistakes and the continuity errors and whatnot, but they don’t want to talk about how the tribe is a racist caricature of an indigenous nation that the heroic clans can impose their own ways of life upon because they’re too underdeveloped to know what’s best, or the way women are almost always only given depth through proximation to their male protagonists or portrayed as selfish and unruly for the same actions male characters are painted sympathetically for. like my mind just keeps going back to that time when people were pissing their pants over whitestorm being mentioned in the allegiances of leopardstar’s honor twice or something but the moment someone was like “kind of wish this fandom talked about the racism more” suddenly it’s all oh this community is always so negative oh it’s just a silly little book series about cats oh people are so sensitive for being upset that terms like “medicine man” are re-appropriated for some dipshit’s fantasy cat book series. like… if this fandom truly wants to believe it puts out better content than the source material, then that will have to come with understanding that our content isn’t infallible or above criticism either. listen, learn, and put effort into changing the way you curate things instead of just shrugging off everything and doubling down with “you’re too sensitive, and it’s not like the books are any better!”

“so did the fandom just collectively forget how Leafpool spent half her time training Jaypaw by like. Just yelling at him. Did we just forget that she was unnecessarily mean to him. Did we just forget that she yelled at him for "overworking" Cinderpaw because they were batting a moss ball back and forth. Or how she forced him to apologize to Willowpaw because he rightfully snapped at her for assuming he was helpless. Did we just forget that.“ - sumone i know in my inbox asking to remain anonymous
