things we need to stop doing as a fandom; a thread
these are MY opinions. if you're mad, go cry somewhere else. also, im a hypocrite bc i've done some of these but im trying to evolve.
1. comparing yoongi to cats. idk im just tired of it.
2. babying the them.
especially the maknae line. they are literally grown men in ther 20s. its giving fetishization and infantilization

3. getting attached to the people bts collab with.
why are you becoming halsey shooters? why do you care about that white woman so bad? why did yall become besties with max? its a collab. not them becoming bts' 8 member.
stream and move on. istg no other fandom does this.

5. shooting for bighit.
that is a fucking company. a business. they do not care bout yall.

6. oversexualing bts.
the "the type to" tweets are okay and harmless until yall go crazy and write disgusting shit about the boys. especially namjoon. respect them.

7. speak over the boys.
the boys can say "i want a chocolate" and manager armys will go "yeah but in 2015 taehyung said he likes vanilla chocolate and jungkook prefers mint so i think they actually mean caramel".
you are a stan behind a screen they do not know. stfu and stream

8. treating bts like you know them personally.
you know nothing about the boys other than what they tell us. you don't know how tae feels about a certain situation. or how yoongi would want to do something. go outside.

9. overanalyzing their friendship.
this is directed at shippers. yall are projecting your lack of friends irl amd loneliness onto bts. seek help.
stop trying to make it seem like "tae hates bts and wooga squad is better". stop tryna police their friendship.

10. speaking to white armys.
i think if we all collectively ignore them, they'll disappear.

11. using BLM in fan wars.
black people, black death and black struggle are not a little toys you can wave around whenever you feel like proving something.

12. army confession tweets.
it gives yall an excuse to basically drag bts' music. not liking a song is ok obviously. but actively dragging it is weird.

13. thinking everyone with a â· is an army.
the number of times a lil 7 set bts up to be dragged and REFUSED to delete the tweet because likes are more important... disgusting.
not all lil 7s are armys. yall deadass be antis a lot of the time.

14. blowing up locals tweets for simply mentioning bts.
"bts doesn't suck i guess"
1k
7.5k 
20.5k 
that shit is so embarrassing. i know as a fandom, we're starved for some bts praise by non armys but you make us look desperate for locals validation.

15. shooting for big accounts.
idk but it gives me pick me energy like?? some of yall start screaming when a big acc follows you like they a celeb or something.
and then when they get called out for something, the shooters defending them like????

16. ignoring bts' problematic past.
another artist could be exposed for having a problematic past and some idiot will be like "thank god i stan bts"
it feels insensitive, weird and wrong. they've done problematic shit too. yes, they've changed and grown but it doesnt erase it
