#rabid fans

Possibly, the reason we’re not getting hair photos is because of the insanity Georgia Tennant has to put up with from rabid David fans.

This is her humour, her stroke of genius. And David’s as well - and likely Michael & Anna’s, too.

This is what you get when you act unhinged - in an utterly unfunny way. When you throw around baseless accusations of whateverthefuck some people have accused Georgia of. I’m not actually completely sure as I don’t read that shite.

Hope you’re happy! This is what you should have learned as a child and perhaps you didn’t. You were probably one of the bullies I hid from in the toilets every day at lunchtime. Actions have consequences.

Updated to add the word ‘possibly’ at the beginning. I was in a pissy mood when I wrote this and should have been a bit more balanced. 🤷🏻

To all the haters everywhere about anything and everything - that scream cancel - that scream they should die - that act like they make zero mistakes and curse and dehumanize and vilify those in the limelight when they displease you or make a mistake -

THESE ARE REAL HUMAN BEINGS!!!!!!!

Think before you speak - just because you can does not mean you should - actions have consequences.

Just really...

Stop the madness.

All around the world we all do the same head grab when our team disappoints us and I just think that's nice.

Part of me is like “yeah, I guess I do kind of want to watch Ted Lasso, thanks to all these gifs and posts all over Tumblr” And then part of me is like “what with all the gifs and posts all over Tumblr, I think I’ve pretty much seen all of Ted Lasso already”

Does anybody else have a celebrity that they don’t really have an opinion about but you hate to see their name on the internet b/c their fans are insane?

While for a liberal citizen the readiness to point out and correct the mistakes of your own party is a sign of the highest loyalty, the loyalty of fans is zealous, unthinking, and unswerving. Enthralled fans, with their critical faculties switched off, are central to populists’ understanding of politics as a loyalty game: Their cheers reflect their sense of belonging. Trust-but-verify is replaced by rowdy adoration. Those who refuse to applaud are traitors, and any statement of fact becomes a declaration of belonging.

Political scientist Ivan Krastev writing at the journal Foreign Policy.

Hardcore Trump supporters act more like rabid fans or even soccer hooligans than like followers of a political philosophy. Loyalty rather than thinking are what drives them.

Think of them as members of a particularly obsessive and extreme fandom which is intent on destroying democracy through devotion to their supreme leader.
