Kpop stans
Ok to preface this, I am a multifandom k-pop stan (multi).
So I know ARMY and other stans like to do "clapbacks" on Twitter towards other fandoms (I say ARMY because I mostly see these on my tl). I know this has always kind of been a thing but I feel like I'm the only one who feels off-put by them. It's basically just bullying another fandom?? I dont understand why we need fanwars and all that jazz. Just focus on your faves and stop attacking others for no reason.
Another thing that annoys me is being called "fake". For example, there were some "ARMYs" attacking GOT7 and igot7s since GOT7 won a daesang (I don't stan GOT7 btw, I'm more of a casual listener). I replied to a post pointing it out saying people like this make me ashamed to be an ARMY and I was immediately called a "fake ARMY" because I didn't support the bullying of another fandom and because I am a multistan. They went through my Twitter profile and saw posts of other groups alongside posts of BTS and said I was "posing as an ARMY". They even told me to kill myself!
Multistans get so much hate for no reason and I don't understand it! Why must people get hated on just because they like more than one group? Why are stans so hostile to one another?
In said clapbacks as well, a lot of stans choose to attack the artist, I don't understand why that is? Why are you attacking the artists, just because their fandom wronged you? The artists don't deserve this hate, they did nothing to be involved in your petty fanwars.
Also the fancams under EVERY SINGLE POST (even serious ones like deaths for eg) gets annoying. I know you want views for your faves but you need to know the time and place where these things are just not acceptable.
