#fandomization

[cure-icy-writes]

feeling nostalgic for fandom meta. Yeah incorrect quotes and memes are cool but have you tried an in depth psychological analysis of your fave with supporting evidence and quotes from their source material? Have you used tumblr’s unique format to your full advantage to ramble on and on about the tropes that they address and subvert and how their arc changes and develops? Have you ever sat down with a spreadsheet to get real autistic about all of their canon iterations and compared it to fanon portrayals?

edit: turning off notifications for this. some of y'all are missing the point :/

''Zootopia is about how evil je- i mean zionists are'' ahh post

and this poster think jews are white or some crap idk

This reminds of late Weimar era analysis that all the villians of 1920s horror films were Jews that were grifting to get Nazis to buy the pamphlets or the paper or publish their screenplay

Like you start with “Jews bad” and work your way backwards to “the film confirms my bias”

Other people have talked about how performative inserting Palestine stuff into fandom is and yes but also like. I thought we all agreed that using real life conflicts and tragedies for fandom was inappropriate??? That it was disrespectful to the people affected in real life because it diminishes how serious it is???

Like I know expecting those people to be consistent on their principles is dumb at this point but come on.

I'm not even gonna bother saying anything cause if you've seen the "fandomization" tag on here you already know what my thoughts on clown shit like this is...

My enemy viewing all tension as inherently sexual, my enemy viewing any character being subjugated as inherently sexual, my enemy seeing power dynamics as inherently sexual, my enemy, my enemy.

ההשוואה של מערביסטים שאכפת להם יותר מידי מהסכסוך לאוהדי כדורגל הרבה יותר טובה מלהשוות את כל העניין לפאנדום אבל טאמבלר לא מוכן לדיון הזה

I love fandom and it’s very important to me and anyone who knows me knows this about me but that said fandom becoming mainstream and fandomization as a trend is um. Bad.
