some people always seem to do this thing of "the character is bad so the actor is bad" or "the actor is bad so the character is bad". using one to justify hate of the other when the actor is a guy pretending to be another guy, that some other guy imagined. it's silly imo.

sidenote: not supporting an actor you feel is a terrible person is understandable but if you're going to engage with the media, you should try to remember your bias and not ruin other people's fun.

#fandom wank #helloo thoughts #if you really feel that someone working on a show/movie is an awful terrible no good person #then don't support the show #I've seen so many fandoms become big toxic flame wars over dumb stuff like this #when the logical move is #IF YOU THINK IT'S SO BAD #THEN STOP WATCHING IT #your lack of engagement is how you properly follow through on your principals #not engaging with it #adding to it/the character/actors popularity #then complaining about it #you're literally making yourself angry then blaming everyone else
