your tweet about feeling more and more disillusioned— me too, and i’m glad i’m not alone. i’ve been a fan since the survival show and it’s just. i don’t know, seeing so many fans telling boycotters to leave the fandom as well as the enthusiasm the members had for the comeback just makes me sick ——— i think a lot of people dont want to say it out loud for fear of being jumped which is understandable but the feeling is not as uncommon as you might think. ive seen a fair few people who actually /have/ left the fandom, or are taking an indefinite break, because of this situation. the same anti-boycotters you mentioned will rush to label these people as fake fans, antis etc. but the truth is that there are many people who won't follow their faves blindly down a path they don't agree with, no matter how attached they are. i've been stanning skz since 2019 (so not quite as long as you but for a fair bit of time!) and i know exactly how you feel. when you stan someone, this kind of thing hits harder because damn, you have some emotional attachment to these people so to get this reality check does feel like a kick to the teeth. i'm not going to be as impacted by, say, chris brown doing something shitty bc i dont stan him and i already know what kind of guy he is. but i do stan skz so it makes sense for us to be so affected by this. all this to say, it's 100% understandable that you feel the way you do and you're definitely not alone ❤️
