Eh nvm bad post
#if you had the misfortune of seeing it it was the one about fandom#I realized after posting it’s really just policing#the real thing i am frustrated with that resonated is just the commodification of artists work#you know like content culture#makes sincere engagement with complex storytelling nigh impossible these days#like someone I knew the other day went to the spiderverse movie#and directly compared Hobie Brown to Hobi from bts based on name alone#and that made me lose my mind a little bit#anticapitalist is not alike to the epitome of capitalism#like I was into kpop for a while I admit#but like it is the epitome of capitalism and commodification of human beings and art#and Hobie Brown is LITERALLY AN ANTICAPITALST PUNK#jhope is not an anticapitalist if he was he wouldnt be in one of the biggest money making industries in the entertainment industry#hopefully this doesn’t result in an inundation of kpop fans justifying jhopes status as an anticapitalist because um#no thank you#anyway there’s my adjusted angry rant#I think letting people enjoy stuff is fune so long as it doesn’t result in the erasure of the deeper important messages#like I think it’s genuinely disrespectful to ignore themes that deal with oppression and violence in favor of uwu big booby or whatever#don’t erase marginalized voices in your enjoyment of a fandom#like if the media is asking you to think#maybe try that too and don’t just commodify their work and benefit from it while ignoring their efforts to say something that’s important#don’t benefit without respecting it#because lets be honest#fandom is one of the most potent ways to get more people to look at your work#theres a reason artists and writers put out fanfics and fanart so fast after a release#because it’s a good injection of views when you ride every popular media wave#but it does not encourage sitting on it and thinking deeply about it#which isn’t always bad#but you need both#or soon enough we’ll be unable to hear eachothers voices
