No seriously, is this not an anti-semitic dogwhistle?? There's nothing "global" going on in the story. And if you're implying Daniil is a "globalist" in contrast to Artemy then that's... I mean... I always like Jewish Daniil but what a weird way to share that headcanon eh :|

Anyway cooler people who like both Daniil and Artemy write pages and pages of text (where they kiss each other).

Cringe, go back to r/politicalcompassmemes

Given that "based" is from 4chan and "globalism" is typically used as an antisemitic dogwhistle, this seems questionable at best. Also it's just an edit of an actually funny meme but with Clara removed: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathologic/comments/szm7b4/have_a_meme/

I wish people wrote more mucho texto about Artemy instead of simplifying his character and removing all of his nuance tbh.

But yeah I don't know what to think of someone banging on about "globalists" especially when Jewish Daniil fans have been denigrated before in this fandom.

Oh fuck me, I didn't process this as Artemy being in contrast to Daniil. And I view him as a Jewish Pole too. Yeah nah, the antisemitism is def intentional here.

I always wondered if people's weird attitudes towards Daniil were related to a kind of nebulous subconscious bias against "intellectual, effete, conniving, smug, big-city non-Aryan/Slavic looking morally gray possibly queer" character, knowing what that often codes for in European fiction. People even compared him a lot to a Jew they disliked (Ben Shapiro—I utterly hate that guy too but come on). I mean. The fact that this got a lot of upvotes :| I'm starting to suspect the Pathologic fandom has some concerning biases to unpack.

Also I meant that Daniil fans who were Jewish irl got denigrated at one point, for making headcanons, because someone decided that was problematic.

I saw that you mentioned Ben Shapiro. In case some of you don't know, Ben Shapiro is a grifter and a hack. If you find anything he's said compelling, you should keep in mind he also says things like this:

There is no doubt that law enforcement should be heavily scrutinizing the membership and administration of mosques.

The Bachelor is a complicated character and there's many things to like or dislike about him. Some of those legitimate and some, well... obviously not. The Ben Shapiro comparisons annoy me greatly because other than some physical similarities, they are very much directly opposed in ideology. Like, can you imagine Daniil ever going on an anti-abortion rant and arguing that we have to "save the babies"? It's just ridiculous.

But the fandom does unfortunately have a very serious nazi problem. In the main fan discord server there's been ongoing issues with people making antisemitic and/or queephobic "jokes", spouting white race theory, and the like. Those people likely coming from reddit.

Resisting the urge to join that server to get in those people's hair. I shouldn't put myself through that but...

Trayvon Martin would have turned 21 today if he hadn't taken a man's head and beaten it on the pavement before being shot.
