all celebrity culture is bad etc etc but the ppl coming at you for just reminding that an open z celeb supports isrl is so 😭
"not the time" if anything it is the perfect time bc the politics of empathy reveal a lot
you're so real anon
It’s so weird how many neophyte accounts openly homophobic while Benedict is literally canon bi or pan now like do they hate that too I don’t get it
a lot of them pretend like they didn't ostracize bi/pan benedict truthers before it became canon lol
Ben is justified in how he acted towards Sophie tho because Sophie was indeed a servant before he saved her and he was just being cautious about being with her like come on now I get in modern times things are different but during regency times how he acted was normal and made absolute sense and without how he acted we wouldn’t have gotten any story I wish bton fandom stop acting as if he committed crimes against her and comparing his actions to Philip who is a grapest & a negligent father who talked down and verbal abused Eloise Ben never did that he was honest with Sophie from the start and he was being sensible and you know what even if bton was modern times asking someone to be his mistress and blackmailing her ain’t all bad coz the intet wasn’t bad he was being realistic
I hope they don’t change Ben book and Benophie storyline because it’s great and most romantic
If yall have a problem then go complain about Eloise book
I literally rated AOFAG 5 stars and I stand by that rating because of how much I adored it. phillip IS the worst man, but it doesn't mean the rest of them men are A+. the power imbalance between benedict and sophie, and benedict asking sophie to be his mistress is fine. I'd even let the blackmail go because while it wasn't his entire reason, part of benedict's reason for sending sophie to work for violet was knowing she was safe in a secure position. the issues in AOFAG that I think the show can change while still being book accurate is just have benedict and sophie genuinely run into each other and spend time together rather than benedict seek her out and harass her because he won't take no for an answer to the mistress question. that's literally it.
She never deserved the hate and the racism she got over getting casted as Michaela but they shouldn’t have made Fran story turn into a lesbian story in the first place because most show watchers aren’t Americans nor Europeans, most casual watchers aren’t comfortable with that and making Michael into Michaela gonna hurt the show badly viewership wise. I have seen many screenshots attacking everyone who pointing this out but it’s true they should have made original spin off with original lesbian characters instead of changing an entire book and main storyline and pointing that out isn’t lesbophobia it’s just common sense
ask me if I give a shit franchaela is happening michaela stirling is real cry about it somewhere else <3
Instead of twisting people words in fanwar maybe go have a word with who make ships wordplay trends
anyone who thinks this "trend" is okay and participates in it is ableist. I don't give a fuck.
Once again noticing that when it’s the abuse that Simone Ashley faces that is brought to light and those perpetuating it exposed, certain people in this fandom bring up other people and other issues to dilute the seriousness of the situation, if I thought you’d post this ask I’d name and shame them because you follow and interact with quite a few of them.
can you please name people because I obviously don't want to be following them? what kind of ask is this?
You have no place to talk about Anthony or Anthony when you are the one who been spreading a lot of misinfo about Jonathan
Sorry that no one care about your flop lesbian couple I guess
love the lesbophobia in my inbox today <3
This is how I know y’alls outrage is performative bc why is your fandom using a kathony being ableist to start a “new inside joke”? Like what’s fucking funny about it that that’s what y’all think is an appropriate way to react to ableism? May not have been you making the “inside joke” crack but I don’t see any polins calling it out? Performative as fuck, as usual!
i'm gonna be honest how fucking stupid are you
The person didn’t actually give Jonny letters for nic and luke. The original poster said they have letters for all of the cast they thought about giving it to Jonny but most comments told them to not do it because it’s rude to Jonny so she at the end didn’t take other letters at the premiere
that's actually really good to know.
Saw that they are making a movie of “a little life” and thought of you *bc you’re the only person aside me who hate it”
we gotta stick together!!!!
Thank you for being the most sane person on my tl because right now everyone else are being so messy and shady
i'm literally so tired
Need to get this out to probably the only person I have seen care about this besides me
Am I the only one weirded out by how some polin fans annoyed at the possibility of like working with Lucy hale & saying he should make better choices like Nicola when Nicola next project to film is an Islamphobe movie that paints Arabs and Muslims as terrorists 🫤
Not comparing I swear but it’s very hurtful to see as Syrian woman/fan that some other fans didn’t find anything wrong in her choice to accept that movie and they more annoyed about him possibly working with Lucy because they think Lucy isn’t a good actress or if the project might be a mess when it comes to writing like idk I got weirded out by that
Same thing happened when I saw some kanthony fans making fun of Jonny working with scarjo when Simone is working with Brad Pitt like again I am not comparing but I feel Simone fans are like Nicola fans keep gloss over the fact that their favs choices aren’t the best either
I would rather watch the dinosaurs movie and the a b-thriller movie over a movie produced by a domestic abuser or a movie that painting my people as terrorists
I really don't want to be the spokesperson on this 😭. I think Nicola, Simone, and Jonny have all made terrible choices in the people they choose to work with/projects they've chosen. I don't know anything about Luke N's project so I really don't know. also I didn't know lucy hale is supposedly problematic??
hey :) idk if you can edit your carrds but as a heads up, your pronouns aren't updated yet in them
my pronouns are they/them for anyone who isn't a mutual. it's accurate in my bio + my carrd. close oomfs are allowed to alternate. if you read my carrd you'd know it highlights no gendered terms allowed if you're not a mutual. so it is accurate.
Why everytime we say a character bi or lesbian some people get so mad like this isn’t just bton and hotd but i have noticed that in other tv series fandoms as well and i feel so uncomfortable in all fandoms im in rn
i don't blame you
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feel uncomfortable by “a little life” because the author herself mentioned she made a lot of decisions in the book to shock the audience and to get a strong reaction from reader. She also made an interview where she said she doesn’t think triggering warnings should be added to books and media
I remember how upset by the whole the thing but got attacked over it by book twt and the worst part is people who attacked me were straight people who fetishized gay men and I am an actual gay nonbinary person and the whole thing got brushed under the rug
Ben is my favorite bridgerton brother and I remember how upset I was when luke was part of that play I was so devastated like I don’t hate him over it and I know actors like emotional type of roles because they are challenging and good with critics & awards but still I hate it how he was associated with that and I always try to erase it from my mind
Sorry if I’m rambling but your tweet showed up to me and I wanted to qrt you to agree but benophie shippers are scary and I don’t want to get attacked but anyway sorry if I’m being a coward and sending you an anon instead of publicly agreeing but yeah I just wanted to say that agree about his choices for some of his plays especially that one despite I know why he did them
I'm sorry you feel like you can't speak up. but we can acknowledge luke doing that play was icky while still liking him.
