I feel like at the start there were some highly valid issues, (n-word and blackface) and after a while it just seemed like anything they did they got called out for CA or people would create a rumour or fake subs or even just out and out lie and its just mighty exhausting to watch.
I'm mad that people, and this is not even restricted to mamamoo (esp twitter in general) use issues like CA, racism and misusing religion as a drag to validate and cover up their dislike of people. They make so many fake stories or invent anger from a community that has no problem with something that ACTUAL issues for CA, racism and misuse or religion go ignored because people think its another fake story.
Calling out a company is no longer about education or to stop further incidents, its drag against a group you hate or feel is taking something you think your own idols deserve. Fans have turned it into a weapon and its so sickening to me.
Now its all about cancelling people but what does that actually do? Nothing. They still release music. They still go on shows. They still sell out tours. Its done nothing bar marginalise offended people into cancel robots till the next issue comes around then people go wild and then forget again. Meanwhile the upset people are pushed off into a corner by their own fandoms who say 'they would never mean to do that' or 'they are so nice I'm sure they don't know blame the company' or just attack them for VALIDLY wanting an explanation. But what do those excuses do? Let the company, and every other kpop company that its fine fans will forgive and forget because 'that was 2 yrs ago they have changed so much by now, I KNOW MY IDOL CAN'T BE RACIST OR SEXIST OR IGNORANT'. Yes because you know this person who was trained for years on how to act in front of a camera to get fans, and given personalities by their company to match the vibe the company wants and its not like you know, they actual may be different from what they show the public.
But yeah, aside from my anger at the whole situ, at this point I never believe anything people say about MMM till I see it for myself. When I see something trending I just think someone must have gotten into a scandal or someone got bored and decided to create some new stuff to drag.
