I wonder how many people on here that have reblogged those “I treat retail workers/public service workers with RESPECT because I’m not HUMAN GARBAGE” type posts have also endorsed or straight up taken part in sending death threats/suicide bait/unrelenting harassment to the people that make their media
#The Discourse™#you can’t have it both ways#you don’t get to make fun of baby boomers for Wanting To See The Manager#and then encourage members of your fandom to tell an actor/writer/artist that they’re scum on a massive scale#because idk they won’t validate your ship or ‘ruined your childhood’ or whatever the fuck#get over yourselves like goddamn (tags via @shesgonnachangetheworld)
im loving seeing more people compare fan entitlement to customer entitlement because it’s exactly that
Wholeheartedly agree but now I’m picturing a middle-aged soccer mom hounding down a store worker.
“Excuse me, why can’t I find my ship here?”
“Well, Ma’am, it’s not canon,”
“Check in the back to see if you have it,”
*sigh*
“I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOUR MANAGER AND IF YOU DON’T SELL MY SHIP I WILL WRITE A BAD YELP REVIEW TELLING EVERYONE HOW HOMOPHOBIC YOU ARE!”
