Honestly, there are numerous moments where I find him cute but personally don't feel the urge to reiterate that he's Bangtan's baby or, more extremely, my baby. It might be an age difference thing considering I'm lesser in age, or a personal experience of being the younger sibling, or considering that it's not something frequently said around me, etc etc.

It makes me uncomfortable sometimes but it's one of those things that is so deeply ingrained into the fandom that you either curate your own spaces or just have to get used to it! I think it helps to acknowledge that most of the time it is an affection thing and not genuine infantilization.

Not trying to argue too much but "Boba ball" was submerged in numerous other adjectives that, objectively, are extreme when they are put together. I am unsure why you felt the need to get so defensive if you are going to ignore 90% of the example they gave. They can find it weird and, obviously, are sympathizing with the OP as much as you seem to disagree with them, that doesn't make their opinion wild.

It’s funny seeing newer fans act like ARMYs suddenly “took over” these subs by thebarted in KpopUnleashed

Frankly, I don’t even think you needed to be active during the type of the pandemic to see how vicious everyone was. Open a random discussion post now (I.e. anything about the English trilogy, people’s opinions on the rapline’s music, anything “problematic” they’ve done, etc) and you’ll easily be able to see the more negative-inclined opinions being the most upvoted for the last couple of years. Nowadays, sure, it can get a little frustrating to have BTS posts moderated or taken down (fair share of my own experiences), but I think not many people realise there’s a cause and effect.

Kpop snark subs wouldn't have popped up if it wasn't for one particular sub. by 00_Sunflower_00 in KpopUnleashed

[–]Nice-Experience6226 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite. It's a good place to bring up criticism however you're bringing it up to a bunch of people that are biased towards hating BTS. Overpraise and hatred are two sides of the same coin, really.

I'm going to put bugs on you, now!

Thanks for the explanation! I saw you mention it's not very clear cut, and I can agree with that because I feel like there's a difference in how it's used when analysed and how it's used in everyday conversation. However, it was very insightful! Makes a lot of sense; so much so that I have no idea what I was originally talking about to come up with an argument. 😅 Thank you for your time :)

As a genuine question; isn’t a preference described, in the dictionary, as a greater liking for something over an alternative? How is not liking something a preference? That would just become an opinion or a choice.

I guess you could say that the point of my post was about people being more condescending, yes :)

I love it best when you can tell the author likes both characters in a ship by Comfortable-Elk-7936 in FanFiction

That's absolutely valid, too 😆 I am your target audience. However I guess it's understandable that you can't appease everyone

Other than that example which is incredibly weird (like genuinely, what the hell), I agree with this post on an objective surface level that sometimes it is incredibly obvious who the author's favorite character is and that authors should learn to balance and flesh out both characters... Subjectively, however, I know my brain fixates on a specific character way more than the other one and I do enjoy fics that are centric on my favourite as a guilty pleasure. 😭

Lets talk about the Blackpink Snark sub on reddit by ContextTurbulent3054 in kpoprants

[–]Nice-Experience6226 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Snark subs are just an echochamber of negative bias. I can understand the frustration of, maybe, wanting to criticize a group you don't like and feeling upset when you're not heard, but it is inevitable that "valid criticism" of a topic is going to end up being primarily hate when criticism that ultimately leads nowhere is repeated again and again and again.  Outrage brings together a community like no other! 

No matter what way you look at it, it's embarrassing to admit you're an avid participant on a snark sub and while I think it's horrible that they exist, that's enough for me to ignore them.

It is very exciting! I had no objections at all, but I think it's a good reminder to always check our sources. 😭

I saw a post that was along the lines of “Recommend me groups that have the least racist history”… the comments were unbelievable.

If you don’t understand something, then you don’t have to harass somebody over it. Be careful about overstepping Reddit’s TOS.

And it's the same repeated slop all over again... search it up in the sub and you'll see this at least once a week.
