Lowkey loving how conformitygate totally shifted the conversation from Is Eleven (Jane) actually dead or is she alive? Like, from the interviews they've given, they were probably expecting that to be the discourse after the finale and that there would be debate about it. And that they'd be asked about it (maybe they thought they'd feel proud and praised for how clever they were for such a nuanced and brilliant ending)
And then BOOM, everyone starts talking about how the finale was so bad it had to be FAKE and a Vecna vision and nobody cares about that dead-or-alive dilemma they were trying to hype (with the whole, only Millie knows this, and we have told her not to tell Noah yadayadayada).
And the fact that it started in the byler fandom.
