Heyo, what’s an unpopular opinion you have regarding the Hetalia fandom? One that I have is that it irks me how the fandom preaches for diverse takes on the characters, yet the moment someone says that they see a character as neurodivergent, there’s a 50/50 chance of you getting hounded on for believing that.
That’s so true. I hate when people see someone trying to include representation but attack it for some reason. People do that with trans and intersex characters too, specifically if they’re doing age appropriate things. I’m not big on $mut but it’s not f3tishization to include trans or intersex representation. Those people have s3x lives too.
Also I hate when people project their headcanons onto others. Like some characters don’t have a canon age, which is fine, but that means that some people will disagree. Just because you see it one way doesn’t mean another person does. And if it’s not canon then don’t get mad when someone disagrees. It will be okay just because someone has a different view on a character 😭
Hetalia can be really flexible with the canon too, which can make that sort of thing even more convoluted. But just be respectful y’know?
