#I really thought a fandom like the old guard featuring a strong female lead who happens to be black#two queer interracial relationships#and addressed the issues of being a minority immigrant would be the balm my soul has a been craving my entire fandom life#The canon is pretty much perfect for someone#and so it feels so personal that the most prolific writers and creators in the fandom chose the be racist bigotted and tokenize everything#that made this fandom so fucking special#it's just gutting#Its not that I wish someone would sensor AO3#I'm just hallowed out by how many creators are so comfortable in their racist tropes when it comes to Joe and Nicky#It literally makes my chest cold and stomach hurt because I don't want to do this in my free time#I don't want to fight this fight when I'm sitting on my bed looking for something fun#I'm so surprised that I'm taking this so personally but goddamn this is rough#I wish the biggest opinion I had to encounter was should Booker be forgiven or was his punishment fair?#but we're constantly at the baseline of hey Joe can be a complex interesting character too without being an angry rapist#Nicky can be shown to grow without dropping slurs every other word for the first half of your fic#Veronica Ngo is fucking gorgeous#Her eyes are not shaped like almonds#have you seen almonds?#can you be less lazy in your writing#ugh there are so many INCREDIBLE writers in this fandom I don't know why I'm wasting energy on the shabby charlatans#I wish I could block writers from my feed#I know some of them only know how to write garabge#and I want to take it out
