genuinely feel that the drama happening in the amc iwtv fandom is what happens when fans promote a show bc it’s gay first and do not mention the plot/genre at all
#like a bunch of twitter kids who only watch cw shows or bridgerton tuned in expecting the vampire diaries or twilight but gay#and instead got a heavy gothic narrative about the cyclical nature of abuse and interpersonal violence#and it’s fine if it’s not your bag but it’s not racist to have black ppl at the center of a fucked up complex narrative#especially when blackness and race play a huge role and add a lot of fantastic nuance to the story#one of the big points in the early vampire chronicles books are that all vampires are evil; that is the nature of being a vampire#louis is evil! claudia is evil! and of course lestat is evil!#and while louis and claudia do not deserve the abuse they suffer at lestat’s hands do not expect moral purity from them#that’s simply not going to happen#why would want to flatten their characters to be caricatures of what you think a perfect victim should be#instead of allowing their intricacies and messiness to shine through and create a really powerful and tragic story about love and grief?#this is literally the lightest book; these twitter fans will not survive the winter (s2 and 3)#i once again reiterate that i always said that i would be so annoying when this show came out and i'm nothing if not honest#amc interview with the vampire#my posts#.txt
