Kitty Rambling Advice: The "Hate" in the Fandom
7 years ago
General
While I was scrolling through my Twitter timeline, it came to no surprise that I've ran into yet another "I hate 2 the Ranting Gryphon" tweet. Apparently it's about him and another fellow fur that they 'love' to trash talk about AnthroCon and their "Fuck Nazi Furs" T-shirts appearing at a family friendly convention. For me, I say whoop-dee-doo and leave it at that. But the real thing that bothers me is the simple fact that these dimwits are still continuing to bash on someone that has been hated on for a near decade.
So as future events, conventions and gaming streams continue to thrive in the furry community today, I believe it's best to say this:
If you don't like anyone that has been known in the fandom, just leave it at that. Taking shots at them & gossiping will only give more attention towards the person you don't like overall. Especially to those whose rumors and hatred spans for more than five years. That alone makes the hater secretly interested in them or is just an outright stalker with a horrifying grudge. So rather then looking around and waiting on what your target is going to do next, focus on your own life and make the best of it. If you hate someone from long ago, Great! But if you let that bitterness get the better of you, you're only going to prolong their 'popularity' even further through your hate. Just let *insert your belief here* figure them out and go about your day. There is too much negativity as is for anyone trying to make the situation, let alone the fandom itself, even worse.
