It seems like Chinese fans are not as “loyal” as people may suspect

The mainland Chinese population is best described as Hyper-Nationalist; Its not loyalty to the idol that is the problem; It is their disporportionally high loyalty to their flag and nation. Sometimes Nation competes with family on top loyalty; I've seen kids sell their parents out for even small things like running an illegal street-side food stands, or doing small undocumented commerce like selling meals in the neighborhood without first registering with the proper officials. Over just a couple of RMB kids are able to find motivation to report their parents to the PD. Its hard to describe without first experiencing just how nationalist a population could be. And it might not be just kids, but I used that example as I have seen one of those happen first hand.

Ehhhhh. Give me someone with a bigger fandom tbh.

Can’t really name SM groups here because they barely open their mouths in public and when they do is to say something either extremely conservative or homophobic

Uhm SNSD RV aren't conservative or homophobic I don't think any SM girl group has ever said anything like that
