#conformity gate

[vanscene]

more than anything conformity gate is like. the tumblrina's final revenge. "just noise" huh? okay fuck it *mobilizes the entire internet into calling out the 10,000 plot inconsistencies and production errors you left in your $400million slop finale*

[sparklezart2000]

the sad thing about conformity gate is that it's genuinely set up so well and there's legit compelling pieces of evidence but i think the duffers are too stupid to be this meta...

netflix is funny for releasing that stranger things documentary because the whole thing is just cast and crew members looking beyond disappointed by that terrible script for the finale 😭 like why would you include THESE in the documentary that was supposed to paint your show in a positive light?

you can pry closeted, comphet, internalized homophobia, deeply traumatized, emotionally isolated mike wheeler from my cold dead hands

[cantbebotheredtm]

the general audience and milevens eating up #conformitygate when it was originally about byler and how mike just ended up as a repressed homosexual 😭 why are they ignoring the crucial aspect of the secret episode theory that is mike being vecna'd because he's gay and TRYING TO CONFORM?!?!

this is the look i needed mike to give when will said “milkshakes at melvald’s.” it needed to be like “that isn’t my will.” i needed him to gather everyone after that scene and say, “that’s not will. that’s not my will.” and everyone immediately trusts him because literally who else knows will better than mike wheeler himself
