I'm talking about the bullying in this fandom yet again, because it's only getting worse from what I've seen on TikTok.

I'm convinced that all of the people going on about how awful the Stranger Things fandom have just never been in a fandom before. The things they list as cringe are fanon ships, headcanoning characters as queer, canon personality vs fanon personality, reader x character fanfic, cosplaying and fan conventions. Which is literally every fandom? People getting dressed up as characters they like and singing songs and dancing together is not a new thing. Even in the precious 2019 fandom, people would cosplay and sing Never Ending Story.

If this is what you think a wild toxic fandom looks like, then you're new to fandom culture. People are just having a bit of harmless fun, it's not like they're sending needle cookies or glass shard cupcakes to writers and fans (if you know, you know). Sure you might think it's cringy or get second hand embarrassment, but that's on you, not on fans just having a laugh and celebrating a show they like. Keep those thoughts to yourself and don't be a bully.

I also think it's really ironic because I feel like a lot of these fans are watching the show with their eyeballs glued shut or something. Your beloved characters from that show are "cringy nerds" too. They cosplay as Ghostbusters and sing the theme song. They love comic books and horror movies. They play Dungeons and Dragons. And people will watch the show, love these characters and then go bully fans in real life. I literally saw someone with an Eddie profile pic saying that alt people are to blame for the fandom becoming cringy. They'll say they're most like Mike or Lucas or whoever else but if you bully people for being nerds, chances are you're a lot more like Angela or Troy.

The issue with this fandom isn't people cosplaying or writing fanfic; it's bullying. If we're talking about this fandom not being good, let's talk about people bullying fans, let's talk about how horrible some of you treat Millie Bobby Brown, let's talk about how some fans are homophobic or sexist or racist or about the issues the show has with portraying minorities. Those are actual issues that we should speak about, not people having harmless fun. I'm not trying to be annoying or oversensitive or whatever but it's just so abundantly clear that all of the people calling this fandom cringe are not used to fandom culture.

PS stop trying to gatekeep the second most popular show of all time, everyone watches Stranger Things, deal with it.

so the van scene was essentially

will: eI is gonna be okay.

mike: yeah, im actually not worried about that at all right now, im literally thinking about all the reasons we just don't work.

will: i am the most selfless person alive so im just going to try to reassure you using my feelings but replacing my name with hers, maybe that'll make you feel better and i can get my feelings off my chest even though it's killing me inside.

mike: wow your words made me feel more loved than i have in my entire life, if those are her feelings then i guess maybe it is love, despite the fact that nothing you described makes any sense in relation to her feelings because you clearly aren't talking about her but im oblivious and an idiot so im not gonna pick up on that fact.

“Byler is endgame” I say into the microphone. The crowd boos. They aren’t impressed. Suddenly, a spotlight shines down on the back of the room.

“No, they’re right.” It’s Nick Runyeard, from 8flix.

“Yeah, what he said.” Suddenly Noah Schnapp emerges from the shadows, followed by Finn Wolfhard.

“Will likes somebody else in the friend group, and that person likes him back.” David Harbour says ominously as he sidles into the spotlight.

“Love is love and byler is in love.” It’s Brett Gelman. He’s covered head to toe in rainbow clothing.

“Yas queen slay the house down.” Matthew Modine bursts into the room simultaneously wielding every single pride flag known to mankind.

STRANGER THINGS SEASON 5 SCRIPT LEAKED ??! M*LEVEN (sweet) BREAKUP ? BYLER CANON ??? 😳

I don't know anything about script writing and I'm not a film major, so don't be too critical of the form, it's just for fun :D

And please let me know if you have any suggestions (or corrections?), I'll gladly add them!
