A message I sent to my friend about the twins photographer Bryant.

Prejudice can be so subtle and still it’s out of pocket because it’s prejudice. And I just shake my head cause I feel like damn Bryant is GOT. He really over here still asleep in a day in age like this. It’s probably why he’s so goddamn comfortable with all [his] white friends. I just don’t get him. Well I get it but it’s like damn wake tf up boi.

[lunedols-blog]

tbh, Bryant is just doing shit to please his friends st this point. he’s a 26 year old hanging around 17-20 year olds. he, someone in California, a place where there’s a ton of Hispanic/Latinx, Asian, and Black populations only has white friends. he knows what he’s doing. most of his target audience is white because they people he photograph are so he caters to them. he knows damn well what he’s doing and even if he didn’t, he’s 26. he should know what’s right and what’s wrong

It’s so sad how ignorance works lmao he a Hispanic Uncle Tom imo

On Those Who Think Racism in the Fandom = Drama

I know someone else brought this up before, but talking about the racism with in this fandom— no matter in the form of a rant or open discussion— is not drama. Calling it “drama” belittles the aggression I know a lot of people in this fandom face. It’s insentive and rude to call talking about racism “drama.”

[lunedols-blog]

I love you!! After stepping back from the fandom for the past few weeks, I really saw everything that you highlighted on and more. I’m so sorry you’re upset, but you have every right to me. Stay strong and hmu if you need a shoulder to lean on. I’m here for you angel <33

thank you babe❤️

[lunedols-blog]

I love you. I never got the chance to follow you but from your rant I know I love you ~1-800-Ethan-Mendussy

love you too❤️

[incorrect-dolan-quotes]

you’re disgusting. glad you’re leaving. fuck you

I pity you. Your head is so far up their asses that you can’t believe that they can be wrong. Continue to wallow in your ignorance. And come off of anon you coward.

[lunedols-blog]

i m m a t u r i t y ! you’re angry with someone who did nothing to you and your resort is to insult her anonymously. you’re not as bold as you think, young one. if you age to do it undercover and hide your identity, you’re a coward and you’re disgusting. come on, if you’re gonna act tough, be bold BOLD, not a pussy

[incorrect-dolan-quotes]

kill yourself

okay

[lunedols-blog]

literally why i fucking hate people. this anon is a pussy and immature. let’s see you turn off anon and send your location🤷‍♀️

don’t you love how we always paint the twins as innocent angels and praise them for not being problematic, but when i step back and look at it, they are really fucking problematic and so are their fRiEnDs.

this is a rant so beware.

FIRSTLY, i fucking hate how anyone who calls out the twins for their bullshit or doesn’t agree with them is a “fAkE fAn”. like how far do you need to be up someone’s ass to ignore all their mistakes. no one should 100% always agree with everything they do.

ALSO, their friends. now, i’m not saying that just because the twins are friends with them, that the twins are like this too, so don’t come for me. but, james is literally so problematic but everyone babies him when he plays the victim (grayson also does this but we will discuss that later). james will be called out for something then get all defensive and not admit his wrongs. like, it would be so much better if he had just accepted that he was wrong in certain situations and he can’t blame it on anything else.

NOW, for mr. grayson dolan, king of iNnOcEnCe and being pReCiOuS. he does the same things james does. he’ll say or do some dumb shit then get called out and play victim. when he sees that it’s not working, he’ll give some half ass apology. the twins always say they choose not to ingage themselves in drama but they cause the drama.

AND I CAN NOT FUKCING TELL YOU, how many times poc fans have been attacked and the twins start acting like fucking helen keller and don’t notice shit. but we’re expected to kiss their ass and look up to them? absolutely not. they get to act all wOkE and shit so they get praise but won’t step up to the plate when they need to.

also, on their friends. let their friends do problematic shit and they turn into helen keller but once someone else that is majorly hated. they become oh-so-vocal and social justice warriors.

TO MAKE A LONG MOTHERFUCKING STORY SHORT, i am angry. i am angry and i have been for a while. these are my feelings though and if you don’t like them, at this point, i’m gonna say this, suck my dick and balls. (sorry for being vulgar, i’m really mad). it’s not everyone in the fandom but it’s also a majority.

i’m not staying some place where i don’t belong and am not wanted. i don’t need and shouldn’t stay somewhere we im degraded and my opinion isn’t valued. all i want is the twins to call out their out-of-pocket fans and they act like helen keller, so i’m going to match that energy🤷‍♀️ until they suddenly gain their senses back, i guess we all won’t have any.

I SAID WHAT I SAID AND I KNOW WHAT I SAID, and most importantly, I MEANT WHAT I SAID

[jiminycricky]

this ain’t nothing but a WORD!

[grantnbailey]

I think it’s clear the twins don’t stand up for their POC fans. It’s sad because what the twins do is subtly problematic, and many do not catch on to that it’s still a problem (which is a very toxic kind of problem). The twins not saying anything/remaining silent is not supporting POC fans; it’s bad for POC fans. The twins DO arouse drama amongst their fans (I think part of it is a business technique i.e., the buzz they create around ethma). Grayson liking a tweet like Bryant’s is not a good sign, and that like shows more on what Grayson thinks about certain racially charged topics.

[starlightwendy]

I am so glad that I am seeing this topic being brought up. This is what has kept me from ever truly joining this fandom when I started to get into the twins. It’s genuinely saddening at how problematic they are. It’s also complete b.s to try and defend them by saying “oMg bUt thEy dOnT kNoW abOuT thESE pRobLemS sToP AttAckInG tHem!!!” like no sis, I turned my blog into a dt one only a two weeks ago but before that I would occasionally delve into it and I would see all this racism towards their POC fans. Hate pages, death threats, hate messages and group chats, etc. It’s so fucking appalling because who in their right mind would ever think that is okay?? To top it all off, many of these people also claim that “the twins don’t like black people” and that’s so disgusting and if I was able to see that when I was barely in this fandom (I legit only followed one DT page on twitter and tumblr), y’all trying to say that the twins haven’t seen it?? I call bullshit. They have and they’re just not saying shit about it. And more and more shit is surfacing about them.

Grayson and the whole fighting situation? At first, I definitely believed that it could have been a genuine understanding. Then, he still followed that piece of shit fighter AFTER he was aware of the situation and that had me livid. He also first deleted two of the tweets in his apology and then just deleted the whole thing and someone brought up the point that he deletes most of his apology tweets (if not, all) and it really fucking frustrates me.

Now with this whole Bryant thing. Grayson liked his tweet real fucking fast but his bitch ass still hasn’t said anything to address the racism in his own fucking fandom. They’re pressed over a tweet saying that white people don’t know how to season their food?? Yet, their POC fans are being attacked for even existing in their fandom and they stay silent on that?? Tf is that bullshit type of energy. I get that their audience is more so on the younger side but fuck that, they aren’t 16 anymore, they’re grown ass people. At this point, they should be able to educate themselves on a situation and speak up for themselves and address the problems in their fandom. They know right from wrong at this point. I’m not saying they aren’t allowed to make mistakes because they are humans but there is a difference between a mistake and a headass lifestyle. Why some of y’all out here defending them with that “but it’s a mistake!!1!1!” you don’t make the same mistake for your whole ass life. You learn from your mistakes, you educate yourself and you don’t make that mistake again. Making the same “mistake” over and over again becomes a choice, it becomes a lifestyle. It’s honestly disappointing that they stay quiet and don’t address issues because “it’s not important” or because their fandom is mostly young. Just as they have said, their fandom is impressionable, yet they think that staying quiet is the best way to handle these things. No, speak up. Your fans are the reason you are where you are and that includes your POC fans, defend them as they defend you.

And lastly, fuck that energy that people have where “they don’t owe fans anything!!1!1!”. Who buys their (overpriced) merch??? Who watches their videos???? Who votes for them??? Who bought tickets to see them on tour?? Their fans. Their fans are the reason they’re able to live on their own, the reason they can pay bills. Their fans support them but more and more it seems like they don’t support their fans. They owe their fans the same amount of support that their fans give them.

How does Bryant live in Los Angeles, a melting pot of different ethnicities and cultures- and still manages to pick the same tired ass white/ white passing social celebrities to celebrate on his boring Instagram feed?

Y’all only give Bryant a pass because he takes kind of good pictures of the twins, but in reality his skills are nothing phenomenal and his creative direction is limited to the same types of pictures with the same type of people- white, cisgender straight people with a big social media following.

LIKE?!

[1-800-moatinyghase]

Oh so much to say about something like this BUT ALL YOUR FRIENDS ARE WHITE AND RACIST AND WHEN ACTUAL RACIST SHIT HAPPENS YALL DISMISS IT BUT THATS FINE LOVE THAT FUCKING ENERGY.

These are the kind of people that think saying “I don’t see color” is the dream Martin Luther King Jr was talking about when really they’re just fucking ignorant.

Let someone be called a n*gger tho. WhO cares???? Make a joke about white peoples cooking and the basis of the actual holiday of thanksgiving being a whole racist massacre??? We must call out this garbage tweet!!!!!!!!!

He deleted it because of all the backlash he was getting. Not shocked. All they do is punk out and not address shit because they’re never wrong and preach “love and acceptance!!!”
