To non army - do you like army?

I don't even like blinks in some cases armys problem is the same as of any other big fandom tbh... And yes, I'm dating V

No, I despise them. We all know why.

Let me be more specific. It's most of the Army here, on reddit and twitter.

Who knew people could have their brains so warped by toxic parasocial attachments to idols that they would defend a building (that MHJ designed by the way).

If it was just that, I would laugh it off, but the hate train they started and tried to crush NewJeans with, for a month straight, is something I'll never forgive and forget.

• They spread all the fake news and false rumors from the ridiculous Hybe media play
• They continue to pretend that ADOR/MHJ dragged BTS into the controversy, and will ignore any attempts to show them that it was Hybe, since it would compromise their excuse to hate NewJeans
• They supported and retweeted an exploitative, clout-chasing YTuber who has a history of misogyny and publicly lobbied for the members of NewJeans to be HANGED
• They themselves sent a bunch of death threats to NewJeans members and those that support them
• They started DOXXING people who supported ADOR/NewJeans, and when some people of color had their personal details exposed, they started harassing them further with obscenely racist comments
• They drafted an idiotic petition to have MHJ dismissed from Hybe

Have I mentioned the fact that they did all this toxic idiocy, despite the fact Korean Army were completely against Hybe from the beginning, criticized them for both using BTS as shields AND failing to defend them, and sent protest trucks and wreaths to Hybe HQ telling them to stay away from BTS?

My opinion of international Army couldn't be any lower than it is today. Literally.

IRL armys I met are fine.

i didnt read the question. i thought it said to non army do you like bts. invalidate my vote pls

Yes, I love my grandpa

What about before the ador thing?

Didn't care about them in the slightest. Boy group fandoms are invisible to me.

Quote from Yoonminnie

got someone writing paragraphs it was never that serious lol

also even tho im an army this fandom been pissing me off here lately

TIL sending death threats, doxxing people, supporting someone asking for a group to be lynched, and a large group of people wishing for said group to be shelved, disband or even worse, while calling them spoiled ingrates and bullies, is not that serious.

I do like BTS though. Not nearly as much as my second gen fav boy groups, but I like most of their music, and I did have the pleasure of seeing them perform back in 2016.

Quote from Yoonminnie

I am sorry for venting on you, but I am still lowkey triggered by what I saw and experienced the past month, and almost all of it has been from Army, and the scale of the hatred is on another level when it comes from a fandom that big.

When they were just attacking MHJ, I didn't give a single damn, but once they started going after NewJeans, their family members and their fans, that took it to a whole new level.

The doxxing and racism that followed was the last straw for me (when really it should've been the death threats).

Quote from Yoonminnie

understandable. there's zero reason why they should go after newjeans because they havent done nothing wrong. the loudest ppl in this fandom are unfortunately idiots and the actual sane armys will get dragged when we tell them that shit is wrong. i def dont agree with the fandom saying those horrible things.

Yes, I will retract my original comments a bit. They were out of line, and I've been in this hobby too long to do that.

There are bad seeds in every fandom. All of them. Even MooMoos had problematic characters from time to time, and it's the chillest fandom out there, in my opinion.

But when it's a fandom as big as Army, the bad actors are numerous enough to form a legion of vitriolic, hateful creatures. THAT portion of the fandom is the one that is permanently on my personal shit list.

Quote from versatile

But generally if you met someone and they're like I'm a blink you'd probably have a positive reaction Right? What if they said I'm an army do you still have a positive feeling?

And what a disloyal blink dating Jennie's ex.. sisters before misters.

Tbh if I ever met kpop fans in general, unless they are pre teens or give me the creepy vibes, my reaction will be positive. I know sns madness is 99% of the time just in sns.

And I'm sorry, Jennie. My loyalty is about their music career, not their love life

And whos your favourite and gen bg?

Quote from YamaChwan

No, free me in being in the same fandom as you, ah, fuck!

Disliking someone purely because of what groups they like and fandoms they identify with is the behaviour of truly pathetic little cvnts.

So no...

I like OG armys, like the ones back in 2015/16 which most of my girl friends were, those were REAL kpop fans - not whatever we have nowadays.

Literally the only fandom that stood by LSRFM while other jealous threatened GG fandoms were dogpiling on them. So yes, i love Army now.

Quote from versatile

knew what the spoiler was gonna be

I was thinking putting "Australian fans of Pink" but thats a really niche one

But in all seriousness the only "fandom" I'd probably immediately dislike/side eye members of are fandoms for genuinely bad people. Like existing Seungri fans (Not V.I.Ps, just Champions). To still stan something so rotten probably exposes something rotten within, like MAGAts and Tate fans.

Funny you mention dog shit, since it has more value and merit than anything I've seen you post. You're the last person who should be speaking for your entire fandom.

Now run along and go draft up some more petitions to send to Hybe, whenever you get done excusing the toxic idiots in your fandom who would sacrifice their lives to defend the sacred Hybe elevator walls.

lmao as if i care about that company i never sent anything like petitions to them ever, plus i actually celebrated when bangtan tv surpassed the hybe labels channel on youtube subs, that's how much i love that company, anyways i just think it's funny how you make announcements about i-armys being on your shit list like it holds any importance

It bothered you enough to comment on it multiple times now, so that statement served its purpose.

Plus, I was answering the question posed by the thread. You should'nt have entered the thread, if you were going to get offended by the potential answers.

Anyway, it's so obvious when I'm interacting with someone not old enough to legally buy their own drinks, so let's just end the exchange here.

One day K-Pop fandom and groups won't be your entire life. I hope.
