So upsetting how we’ve been thrown to the wolves by the duffers after being some of their biggest supporters. It’s fine that they didn’t want to make byler happen. It’s not fine how they wrote it and used it for engagement with their series and then fucking made fun of us for it.
Some of the most dedicated fans of this series have been completely ostracized by the rest of the fandom and just all of the GA stranger things watchers because of how they’ve handled this. I have seen people be so fucking mean to bylers.
I’m not even really upset about the ship because that’s just how ships are, most of mine aren’t canon and that’s never bothered me. It’s the way that queer people have been represented in the show and how their queer fans have been treated.
Fuck them man I’m so tired of being told that we should be happy because a straight person tells us that it’s fine to be gay as long as they don’t have to see or hear about it at all.
And anyone who says this wasn’t queerbait is just plain mean for refusing to listen to us and taking the side of the cishet millionaires instead.
