Hearing "there's an active Talespin fan forum that someone got banned from for pointing out that it's a Jungle Book AU (and therefore shouldn't be considered 1:1 with the Jungle Book)" just gives me Klonoa fan forum flashbacks.

Very much over people who make geek culture their entire identities, but spend so much of their energy dictating how people should enjoy something rather than doing something productive and community driven.

#Like I know exactly how this shit goes now #You suck all the energy out of the few creatives that exist in the fandom space #And then when anyone tries to do something fandom driven you sit back and twiddle your thumbs because you dont want to put in the effort #You will however put in the effort to commit ableist sexist racist or queerphobic microaggressions on the regular #Piling up and piling up until it's no longer fun for minorities to be in your fandom space anymore #ANYWAYS go find a queer person to enjoy talespin with you'll have much more fun ♡#Vent #This is mostly just me venting my frustrations I had for a forum I wasted a lot of years and energy on #When I really wasn't getting much in return #And knowing how Millenial Geek Culture Cishet Men (TM) tend to act #I feel as though I'd be starved of critical thought there
