Why do elitism exist? Those people who favor popularity, skill, and money over genuine appreciation
How could they be so hypocritical? When they reject and fear you over your orientation or preference but slowly become one themselves and happily embrace it as they're being surrounded by people who congratulate them for coming out, while you have to live with pain as they harshly pushed you away
Life is unfair. Sometimes they come on top even when you scream that they don't deserve it. Sometimes they only want to befriend you if you are lewd perverted bastard, popular enough, or having similar art style
They fear you because you are too normal for their taste, too honest for their lies, and you are not good enough to feed their massive ego
I will be honest, it's the same people that make me want to leave the fandom for good. But I can't lie to myself that I love sketching. They are young, hungry for popularity and attention, obvious skill that I would kill to have, but sadly their attitude is what stresses me every day
I wish I could just leave them be and move on, but alas they are everywhere
It's not everyday I share my thoughts, so it's quite exhausting how to put them into words

One of them was pretty unknown to most of FA, he was just short of a hundred watchers, but after he did a colored sketch for me and I asked my watchers to check him out, he got a big head about it. Once he gained more interest from the public, he completely shut me out. He then became a popufur for a while, until he got popular enough to start treating his watchers like shit and acting like anybody he drew for should consider themselves lucky to get something from him.
Pretty sad that there are people like that out there. But yeah, it's a thing that pretty much everybody encounters in any fandom.
Still, I'm curious on why they want to do that. There's no need to shut your friend just because you have your own little club now
Who knows why that happens, maybe some people don't measure their friendships in the same way
even if they´re everywhere, one can only keep going
