If your only or main reason on why a piece of media is bad because "they didn't make my ship canon" instead on focusing why it's bad, your opinion is useless and invalid

I think tvd making bonnie and damon friends was attempted character assassination towards bonnie. Why does damon’s underserving ass get to be paired up with good people he continuously hurt? And they just learn to brush off his actions to forgive the unforgivable?
I don't know what single reason any living person would have to like a character like Damon. Liking means they like these very things:
They tolerate abuse
They condone sexism
They absolve rape
They accept racism
They hate their own siblings
They love bad humor
They downplay,gloss over and double down on senseless violence
They glorify and justify pointless murder
They hate when other characters do the same things he does but tolerate it with him
They have a fascination with him only because of his looks
They project themselves onto his VICTIMS because they're into that sick shit
They are toxic and attack anyone that calls out his character for the sadistic psychopath that he is
They wash away his actions with baseless excuses that hold no weight
They ain't loyal and would cheat in a heartbeat
They don't follow the bro code
They love cheaters
They would totally fuck their spouse's family
They believe in victim blaming(Elena is the only case I go back and forth on)
They gaslight the fuck out of anyone
Nothing pisses me off more than TVD writers and fans having more grace for white male characters when they're just as badly written as the MOC and female characters
Just saw a youtube video about Damon being an abusive POS to everyone around him including Elena but some commenters prefers blame Elena for the actions of a 25 year old. Like babes let's focus on the topic at hand.
The fact that Damon Redemption is always triggered by and comes at the cost of the women around him. From Andy (his victim) dying so He can have a pity party to Elena's character being sacrificed to Bonnie having to form a friendship with him even though he caused the death of 2 of family. All that just for him to regress back into a POS every 30 episodes. Julie Plague and company must pay for their crimes.
Damon Salvatore will never be the prize when it comes to either Bonnie or Elena.
don't say you hate dullena and then go and ship bamon. it is NOT bonnie's job to fix a murderous psychopath anymore than it's elena's. he r worded caroline and that's bonnie's friend too. a lot of the reasons dullena sucks are the reasons why bamon sucks too. don't @ me.
I can't get over how infuriating, absurd and unreasonable Damon's attitude towards Enzo and especially Bonnie is in 7x19. I'm not the defender of violence, but during every rewatch I just want to crawl through the screen and slap him.
tvd adjacent so I wanna see if anyone else agrees
If you've read ACOTAR and are active in the fandom, I swear the ship war is veeery familiar to TVD 😂
You've got the "destined" pairing where people want them together because they're fated to be = Stelena / Elucien (of course, Elena actually liked Stefan whereas Elain does NOT like Lucien. AT ALL.)
The one where it doesn't even make sense but people ship it because they read waaaay too much into interactions that aren't even romantic, and somehow keeps coming up with headcanons that are already canon scenes for another ship? = Bamon / Gwynriel
The one that clearly has insane chemistry, and is all "fuck destiny", has many romantic and friendship moments, everyone around them can clearly see SOMETHING between them, to the point that even Stefan/Lucien can tell and it makes them uncomfy because they have to acknowledge that there is something there, they're touch her/him and you die/saved each other, hands them something they wouldn't trust with anyone else, spouts goddamn poetry to the other, etc. etc. = Delena / Elriel
And guess which TVD couple was endgame? 🤭
You have fans who also can't spell Gwyn's name, just like TVD fans.
Stefan = Stephan/Steven
Damon = Demon 💀 (this could be intentional but considering they can't spell Stefan or Elena's names either, I'm not sure.)
Elena = Elaine/Elain
People claiming if you don't like Gwyn it's because you're a victim blamer/haven't been SA'd (WHAT THE FUCK BTW) 😐/people claiming if you don't like Bonnie, you're racist.
Sadly, there may be a few that are, but to blanket statement a whole group of people of something horrible/disgusting because they simply don't like a character is wild.
The fandom bullshit will always happen. Sad.
That being said, the only difference for me personally, is that I actually don't care for Gwyn at all, Bonnie was great. Was she my fave? No. Did I dislike her? No. I wanted her to get her happy ending too.
Gwyn? I forgot she existed after I read ACOSF, if she never appeared again, I would not care.
Anyways, rant done.
