what is very annoying about the vast majority of batfam fans is the very surface level approach they take towards calling out racism in dc canon and fandom. yes, you want damian to be brown in the comics but do you care about how his mother’s character was butchered due to post 9/11 anti-arab racism? yes, you want cass and duke to be featured more prominently in comics but would you be okay with them displacing your own faves in order to do so? do you even read the comics they ARE featured in, or are you content with just reblogging their one panel cameos from your fave’s solos, extolling how much you “love” them (so long as they are second fiddle, that is)? you want jason or dick (whichever you prefer) to co-parent lian, all the while sidelining jade - you are content relegating jade and talia and shado and shiva to a joking “assassin moms” punchline when you talk about their kids while not realising the implications of their race and how it plays into their portrayal by dc.
you can’t just reblog a vague post about colouring damian correctly and wanting representation and then uncritically reblog another post about how evil his mother is - you’re playing into the exact same racism you claim to denounce, while feeling like you’re being so very progressive while doing it. it’s not like i’m expressing a particularly novel sentiment either, and i’m aware i probably sound like a broken record right now but it’s just so irritating
To disregard canon you must first interact with canon
oh my goddddd can the "batfam incorrect quotes" people stop with the "JLA meets the batfam" posts?
"ooooh! the JLA are soooo surprised by the 'batkids' because they're soooo cHaOtIc and the idea of having a child sidekick is soooo foreign to them! they could neeevurrrr!!"
not only they would not fucking say that (because they all have sidekicks and know bruce's sidekicks too) but also the way you guys see the JLA as the side characters in bruce's story with no life of their own is boring as fuck.
So write it.
hey so there's this thing called a comic book which constitutes another thing called canon. i'm sure you can look that up outside of tumblr
but knowing the tumblr audience, i know you won't, so the most i can do is assure you i CAN write better than somebody who has read maybe 5 batman comics and nothing else
Oh my Lady the fucking superiority complex in this post.
FYI I read all of Young Justice (1980), most Red Hood comics, the Red Robin run, Absolute Superman, Batman and Wonder woman, Batman contagion, dc vs vampires, and this is just a fraction of it. I'm currently reading detective comics and Robin at the same time.
I also watched BtAS, The batman (2004), Justice leauge the animated series, and almost every DCAU movie, even the crossovers. My favourite is indeed Batman vs TMNT.
So get your fucking head out of your ass and show us some humility.
And what if someone only read five batman comics? What kind of upper hand would you have over them? Nothing because it does not matter.
If you find a lack of something in the fandom, write it. Nobody owes you a fucking word, and if you can write better than us, oh embodiment of hubris, then do it instead of running that fucking mouth of yours, downtalking others who owe you nothing.
You are the exact type of "fan" I hate. Egotistical, who thinks they are higher on some imaginary pedesdal just because they have the time and life to waste on comics which not all of these people can afford.
You complain about free things and judge without thought. What do you think that tells us about you?
my sibling in christ, this post is a rant about mischaracterization, it was never that serious. notice how i did not attack anyone in it, then 🫵YOU🫵 came at me with sarcasm and pretentiousness, i fired back with the exact same.
nobody owes me a word -- EXACTLY! hence why i did not direct this at anyone in particular. i was ranting about the shit people not knowledgeable on characters say about characters they aren't knowledgeable on. nobody died because of it 😭😭😭 who am i downtalking? who did i direct it to? who do i owe an apology to? no one.
if you did not like my post, you could have just blocked me and kept on scrolling. maybe make a post of your own about something that bothered you, on YOUR profile. you know, like i did.
I just want to know how you got "sarcasm" and "pretentiousness" from "so write it."
It is a suggestion.
Also, oh wow, someone added something onto something public you posted on the internet. Oh woe you.
"hey so there's this thing called a comic book which constitutes another thing called canon. i'm sure you can look that up outside of tumblr" Please tell me how you meant this. Because it sounds pretty condescending.
You would have the same right of commenting on my posts, of reblogging them and adding your own imput. This is tumblr. If you don't want random people to comment on your posts, then don't post on the internet.
I don't wnat you to apologise to anyone. But I want you to get down from your high horse and go get your fingers, or whatever you write with, working, and write shit you want to read like a normal fan.
Because apparently you can write better than someone who read five batman comics.
Like the DCU has stable canon depictions. What a joke.
you assume an inherent will of mine to read this scenario being played out fanonically ("so write it.") when it already exists in canon (hence why "i'm sure you can look that up".) it is pretentious.
that being made clear, i'm not complaining because i want to read a better version of those posts. i'm complaining because these posts fundamentally misunderstand the characters i like and they are everywhere because no one tags their batwank correctly.
do you want me to be sorry for pointing out mischaracterization of characters by people who haven't read them? do you want me to feel wrong for wanting the wonder woman and green arrow tags to be filled with, god forbid, posts about them written by people who like them and not badly tagged batman centric shit that treats them as side characters?
because if so, i need you to know that's not happening.
Hey! Buddy! it's called fanfiction for a reason! if you don't like it, don't read it. Stop complaining about shit that you don't need to read or even see. Yeah okay its 'mischaracterizing' them but when are they not? have you read/watched canon? its incoharent. Every characterization of every character is different. The lines have blurred, there is no one distinct characterization. Fanfiction is fanfiction for a reason, its so we can write what we want to see. When people like you come along, its annoying because you literally don't have to engage with fandom (fanon) media. If you don't want to see it, don't. if you can't 'escape it' or whatever excuse you're gonna come up with, then suck it up and deal with it or get off the internet.
hey! buddy! fanfiction is not exempt from criticism (ESPECIALLY fanfiction made by people who haven't interacted with the base work) (and ESPECIALLY fanfiction that perpetuates the distasteful tendencies of canon, which is, guess what? not exempt from criticism either).
keep in mind that i never said i hate fanfiction in general, i said "it bothers me when this kind of post does this". if you followed your own advice, you could've just not interacted with me. i don't owe a general genre of tumblr post — or the people who felt personally attacked — a positive opinion on it, hope this helps!
Holy shit. Holy mother of all. Tf you mean "fanfiction is not exempt from criticism?"
Are you new to fandom? Unless the author specifically asks for it, you do not criticize it. You do not shittalk it, because it's free, you can just not read it, because nobody is making you read it.
Maybe learn the etiquette of fandom before you join it. As it is proper.
??????
as someone who's been into fandom space/culture since they ever had access to the internet, please PLEASE miss me with that bullshit 😭😭😭 fanfiction is not and has never been exempt from criticism. fandom etiquette doesn't mean "you HAVE to guzzle up whatever is posted because you didn't pay for it," it means "you HAVE to be respectful of others and their spaces" (hence why the term "ETIQUETTE").
(in addition, you could just follow your own advice. as you said to me "if you post something on the internet, people will have a problem with it" — suddenly that can't be the same for fanfiction?)
also, on a slightly different topic, do you think works that perpetuate racist/queerphobic stereotypes against minority characters in it (damian, talia, tim, etc. for an example) (which are extremely common in this fandom btw) have to be guzzled up and never criticized as well? that'd be funny as fuck of you.
