Can u be friends with fandoms u hate irl?

if they dont live their lives by kpop politics, then yes

So when you say "armys are a disease" you include your friends too? Nice for them....

Not everybody takes everything so personal you know

Some of my friends dislike my faves and my fandoms

But I don't care, cause they are decent people, they just attack them with bullshit like charts, awards or saying their songs are bad

So I just attack their faves and fandoms back even if I like them

We are very playful around each other

I don’t hate any fandom but one if my friends at work stans Twice :B

Not everything should be taken completely seriously you know

I don’t hate any fandom so sure, i can be friends with people from other fandoms.

Let’s not be fandomist, people

Well that depends of who’s talking.

Fights? Fights here

If they're toxic no but luckily all kpop stans i met irl were super fun to be with (a shawol, an exo-l/army and a girl's day stan)

Yes, of course. I've got a friend who's ablink and nct stan. But we're cool

Quote from whatev

Not at all, its just a fandom get over it, its not a personal insult

Now none of you answered the subject of the thread but just came to start shit and when i speak I'm the bad guy

Sorry for derailing, it is my fault. It was just too tempting, I could not resist.

About your question : hating a whole fandom seems weird to me honestly. They are certainly fandoms who have more people I find annoying than others but I think I still manage to see people as individuals and not solely based on who they are a fan of. So I am sure I could be friend irl with someone from any fandom, if we have other common interests of course. I would certainly not be less close of my friends even if I suddenly learn one of them is a Blink or an Exol Lol

I don't truly hate any fandoms, so it depends on the person themself.

if they go all shitty saying stuff like "oh your fandom is crap (group name) isn't even that good" or " omg you like them?? ewwww their music is shit" then no, but if its the ones that are cool with any fandom then i can be friends with them.

basically any toxic ones are off my list.

Yes, the only time kpoop fans have bothered me irl was years ago when girls at school were going off calling Hyuna a slut

If they stay away from the drama then yes I think it’s possible.

I was never in that situation so I can't tell

But I literally unfriend-ed my irl friend who is also an Army because of our irl problems, not because of kpop so I assume I would do the same to everyone else no matter which fandom they're from.

Well, I suppose you can make generalizations about fandoms i.e "this fandom is so toxic" or "this fandom is amazing", but even then, the reality is that fandom comprises many individuals. So some might not be that toxic like most are or whatever. So, I'm guessing your friends aren't the bad parts of the fandom, which might make it easier to get along with them.

But, if your friends don't mind you hating their fandom and you don't talk much about the fandoms in the first place, I wouldn't see an issue. Like, it's clearly not affecting your relationships so I wouldn't worry.

Damn wwtf ? Like generally girls like that piss me off

I usually got along fine with them but they were absolute caricatures of female idol hating bg fans lol

There's nothing wrong with being friends with people within a fandom as long as you like them. It's always good to be open even if your experiences with a fandom were poor in the past. Nobody is the same and there are nice people inside of fandoms but most people don't pay any shit to them.

i literally could not care less, i’m not taking kpop politics into my everyday life...that’s exhausting (even then, i don’t think i would hate, that’s a very strong word)

as long as they’re not annoying, i can love anyone and be friends with them!

Obviously. Why would you spend your life hating a fandom that doesn’t give a fuck about you?

And also there are shitty people everywhere. Just because you have run into some you didn’t like doesn’t mean you should be generalizing a whole arse fandom.

And people here should also learn to separate kpop from their daily lives, it’s just music at the end of the day. Don’t let it distort your social life

Have a good day

Of course. I don't hate any fandoms, I just don't like
