What is your fandom tired of hearing?

Quote from YouChanDoThis

Levanter and I Am YOU are knocking on your front door. I'm just kidding, but those are two exceptions when it comes to title tracks of theirs. If we're counting Japanese ones as well, we can also count Scars too. I agree aside from those exceptions though.

Yes! Their B-sides are so diverse and there's so many of them! Plus all their player/record songs, sub-unit/solo songs and so on. I agree. If people want to trash them for their music, they should at least know what they're talking about first.

People just kinda forget about them. They like to point out Miroh or Side Effects or Thunderous instead.

Well, the fandom of the group of the songs you were "dissing" might call it toxic that you just seemingly anointed yourself arbiter of good taste and implied that they are either deaf, have bad taste or are blind stans.

This doesn't really help the notion that _____ stans are so toxic.

Does that make it clearer?

Yeah the two are definitely not related. I was asking about why people hype flat songs in my previous thread. This one is about assumptions about your fandom. Like how people say all blinks or all armys are toxic which is absolutely not true. Music taste and fandom issues… two different topics. Respectfully, lets agree to disagree

people who keep talking about SHINee's "sounds"

like what SHINee sound, they dont do 2 comeback with the same genre

Like Replay, View and Don’t Call Me don’t sound the same but people assume SHINee are just cut and paste with the same sound. They pull from many different genres

Quote from Ves

Sure, but at least now you know why people so often say ____ stans are so toxic. You can't be that tired of hearing it if you're just perpetuating it now can you?

I think people should give fandoms a chance before hopping on the hate bandwagon personally. Can’t say someone is toxic without firsthand experience and the generalization of fans being toxic ain’t cute either

Quote from Kairina

Mys are toxic

Lipsync,no stage presense,China bulk buy

MYs in my experience are pretty chill but I do hear that a lot

Quote from Ves

Oh I totally agree with that logic. Just because one (or more) fan(s) you know in that fandom acts toxic does not mean the entire fandom is. I'm simply pointing out how others arrive at this "claim", faulty as it may be.

Glad we see eye to eye there. And another flawed logic of people is mistaking passion for toxicity. Just because someone is really really into a group, doesn’t automatically make them toxic for always wanting to defend their faves and whatnot

Quote from Ves

This is faulty logic - you've mixed up passion with toxicity as if the two are interchangeable. They are not. Can a passionate person be toxic? Yes it's very easy to cross that line, but your example blurs that line with defense. Defending one thing does not require being toxic. Passion can exist wholly without toxicity.

Yes that is true. What I was trying to get at is that toxicity is considered a blanket label when in reality it could be passion, just using that as an example. Goes back to my original statement about how not every fandom is toxic
