The way the whole fandom is just collectively ignoring felix yet again promoting incredibly dangerous diet practices to his thousands of young and impressionable fans...saying he wants to diet until he can see his bones, and then later backtracking and saying it's just a joke?
Its insane that OP, as an edtwt account of all things, is the only one calling him out for how irresponsible it is, but its crickets in stayville- all the major fan accounts have just pretended he didn't say it, even though the damage is already done to those who subscribe to his bubble and got the messages directly...
He's 24 next month, there's absolutely no way he doesn't understand the harm that can come from the things he's saying?
Not sure if I should add an emoji to reply to this but I'll send a 🍄

no, this one I'm gonna reply here since it's out there for whoever wants to see it.
that's unfortunately the usual for translators in Stayville, whenever Jeongin, Minho, Hyunjin and Felix talk about their disordered eating on bubble they don't translate and pretend nothing happened to avoid backlash but as you said the damage is already done. Jeongin's FW vlog was horrifying, the company thinks that's normal, why wouldn't you edit that out? JYPE is still pressuring them to diet at this point in their career while other companies tone it down with time, like yeah they still have to keep their weight in check but it's not a heavy pressure like what it seems JYPE is doing to them, and we know the effects of that pressure for years since trainee days, Jihyo talked about that and if you see her eating habits today... not healthy at all.

I understand all of them are victims, but to advertise this to your young audience, a lot of them kids, the majority of them females, that's fucked up, keep it to yourself nobody needs to know you aspire to look like skin and bones. if an edtwt acc thinks what you did is fucked up then you know it's bad bad, like damn.
