oh jeez couldn't help but follow this blog because I sure love me some Quality Band Discourse. And I'm gonna come out straight here, even though I do consider myself a fan (mostly of the fictional lore and characters if anything), I am not afraid to talk shit about the band members either. I really despise the band members for being the shit they are, but I can't let go of the fictional side because of my neurodivergence. Rip in pepperonis I'm in such a personal and moral conflict.
I totally understand. It has been complete hell trying to remove these people from my life. I am also neurodivergent, and this band- the characters and the people alike- were extremely important to me. Everyone who knows me knows I was completely fixated on them. I guess I still AM completely fixated on them, but now in a very negative context.
As long as you acknowledge that the people behind the fiction are problematic, and you are not trying to get other people into the fandom by hiding the horrible truth behind the characters, I think it is totally fine to still enjoy the lore, the music, the characters- whatever. I still have S*P*G cosplays hanging in my closet that I probably will never be able to get rid of, and a box of merch that will always stay hidden but remain in my house, probably until the end of time…
Thank you for the message! I hope the future brings us all Quality Discourse to keep us all happy and content… and by happy and content, I mean, enraged and disgusted that these people do the things they do.
