I'll try to keep my opinion as neutral as possible...
To tell the truth, both the haters and the fangirls are making me feel physically sick right now (Like queasy, I won't throw up.) Let me just organize my opinion into two parts since it's the only way I can organize these thoughts...
First of all, the rabid fangirls. Time and time again, I've seen horror stories about Hetaboos and seen shitty Hetalia OCs that make me feel so disappointed and want to slap them in the face and rage at tell them how Himaruya wouldn't be proud of them (yes, I've heard that claim), but would probably be ashamed of them. Another thing that bothers me is that they wouldn't accept a "I disagree." You HAVE to love GerIta. You HAVE to love Spamano. If you ship RomanoXJapan, YOUR ASS IS DEAD(Well okay, it wouldn't work, but hello? Freedom to ship, anyone?). Seriously, it's like a goddamn religion (No offense to religious people here.) And don't even let me START with that stupid fandom war with Homestuck fans. True, the two are horrible to each other, but seriously, can't we all be friends?
Next, the haters. I've been trolling around this blo, reading posts and so forth, and to be really blunt, some of you guys are as bad as the fangirls are. What do you do when a wild pro-Hetalia attack appears? "KILL IT, KILL IT, KILL THAT FAGGOT WITH FIRE!!!" In my pinion, that's really not a mature way of dealing with these kinds of comments. Just....chill. Take the caps lock off, bury some of that raeg, and (politely) tell them to take their opinion somewhere else. I try to respect your opinions, but some people, especially some of admins, just....no. It's like they're trying to shove their opinions down my throat. Where did we hear this again? Right, the thing about "it's like a fucking religion." Don't take me wrong, I've seen moderate, mature users on here as well, and it makes things a bit better for me.
Oh, and GaGaalinG? I would like to put in a word about the Japanese racism against Korea. My mom's a Japanese immigrant, and she's not racist against the Koreans at all. Actually, she's more racist against the Chinese (I tell her to stop making racial slurs about them, she won't stop.) The way you portray the Japanese seems like you're labeling all the Japanese as racists. I'm sure that there are people who are completely neutral about the Korean issue, and it feels like you're insulting my heritage in a way.
Thank you for listening!
