I was going to stay out of this, but you and Brenda are really ticking me off. You're acting like people are attacking you for defending the movies, but people are responding to the nasty comments you and she (mostly she) made FIRST. She's said that people who didn't like the ending are myopic, lacking in imagination, haters, antis, vitriolic, one-track minded, etc. That's all directed at fellow fans. I haven't seen anyone on the other side criticize fans, just the movie creators.
You’re acting like people are attacking you for defending the movies…
You mean kind of like you’re doing?
Let me explain something. @brendaonao3 and I have never - not once - jumped onto someone’s post and ranted about why they were wrong for hating the ending. We have never gone into a SINGLE ASK BOX and dumped on someone’s viewpoints or attacked their comments on the film, or anything.
This is what we HAVE done:
Made our OWN POSTS on our OWN BLOGS
Reblogged our OWN POSTS or each others to defend our viewpoints
Reblogged posts defending the movie and put our agreements on them
Answered asks that thave been sent to us, usually attacking our viewpoints
You sit there and say we’re ACTING like people are attacking us, but summer child, that is exactly what is happening.
After Brenda posted her thoughts, she got close to EIGHTY asks, mostly anons, mostly shitting on her for her viewpoints and what she said. I did not have that headache because I refuse to turn anon back on, but best believe, if it was on, my number wouldn’t be that far off.
We have, between the two of us, lost close to A HUNDRED FOLLOWERS because of our viewpoints. And no, not every loss is because we said stuff about the fandom that people didn’t like; I IMMEDIATELY started losing followers right after I said I loved it. Neither of us has gone on a personal attack of any one person, but holy SHIT are we getting it as individuals.
Finally, I can see that you absolutely did not read all the asks and comments we published, because if you had, you would have seen that Brenda ALREADY responded to the myopia comment. And that is what annoys the shit out of me about this ask. You felt the need to come into MY house and make sure I knew that you were mad at us when you coudn’t even be bothered to actually read the responses we’ve been putting up. The irony is astounding.
And now, a word from Brenda:
Yeah, I dunno, am I not allowed to answer asks now? Have my own opinion on my own blog? Reblog messages of support from other people who agree with me? What does OP want, exactly? What’s the proper method of expressing my joy over the ending and answering asks from people who are straight up belligerent about telling me I’m wrong and NOTMYSTEVE? What would make them happy???
