And don’t get me wrong there were people who were critical before but like. Before 2023 the tag might as well not have existed and now it has multiple pages.

Once again black characters are not allowed to be anything but perfect

Most of the time it’s people bashing him for their ship. Or getting mad about shit that is explained by ATLA being a kids show.

Like a couple start of good then go into unhinged rant about how zutara is amazing and Aang is an incel or whatever.

Everyone else I’ve seen get criticism without it turning into bashing except for Aang it’s weird.

And I like Aang but like I can critique my faves but it’s hard to do with him cause people just bash him and make up shit.

Like he was cloned without consent! I would be very mad too if someone did that, it’s like having an unwanted pregnancy/child! It’s giving me victim blaming vibes in those fics…

We get it, Young Justice has nice artwork but a portion of the DC fandom seemed to ran with the idea that Supes is a bad parent but favors the others…

Imagine if Connor had Clark and another hero’s DNA instead of Luther’s, it would’ve been more of an awkward coparenting situation than just an unexpected surprise child arriving in the house.

I read a few fics where Connor had Wonder Woman or another character’s genetics so he wasn’t as brooding as canon. Bc his parents treat him well despite not being conceived naturally. Maybe the adults were lovey dovey at each other but pre-dating or were already dating at this point? Said couple ran with it without much issues.

Apologies for forgetting the titles it’s honestly been a long time since I’ve been reading DC fics… I’ve been too into other media’s fanfics that have more civilized fandoms.

Omg yes. This they make Superman out to be the bad guy when it’s like bro that’s the equivalent of forcing him to live his rapist’s baby right off the bat. Like no shit he felt violated and used and wanted nothing to do with him.

It irks me more cause I’m also certain that in the comics he accepted Connor with like open arms no? So why did the tv show have to make him such a big asshole

Hey Clark your bodily autonomy was violated and now you have a son why aren’t you immediately happy.

They always make Superman look bad so Batman can look better easy to tell who favorites are

I used to reblog DC stuff but stopped long ago and even removed most or all of them. Not just bc of Batman being overrated here and practically being the face of the company and even fandoms. But sadly, it no longer feels like him, Superman and Wonder Woman being the power trio. I didn’t mind the Batfam AU at first but them I was like, where tf is everybody else if it’s tagged under DC comics or smth? Not even a passing mention or cameo? The Batman/fam community has their most consistent glazers after all.

Dc x dp/mlb being the biggest culprits of flawed civilians/protagonists that didn’t deserve to get the short end of the stick.

It should’ve been Batman x *insert franchise* for the tags bc that’s actually much more accurate.

Or are folks that insistent on mass spamming/reblogging dcxdp/mlb wherever they are? No offense, but I stg they don’t seem to have much variety outside of the cliche tropes & plots they’re so absorbed in. 🥱 Boring and unimaginative imma right?

Whenever I do crossovers, I’ll always avoid doing those particular types no matter what. Boundaries man, I ain’t taking their requests or even commissions.

Suddenly I feel like DC x DBZ x Invincible fan creators need to outdo Dc x DP on any social media site. Bc the ideas/plots of powerful aliens either being at each other’s throats for universal superiority/reputation-? Spats between pure bloods, social darwinists and open minded ones? These definitely sounds much more interesting than some meaningless angst fest between 2+ franchises that have less in common!

As a DP/Mlaatr/Gen Rex person, I try my best not to fall into the cliche in-universe/crossover tropes. Rereading canon sources & rewatching clips on websites.

I’ll always do the flawed but still very much loving (grand)parent trope for my ideas! Even if the middle aged folks had a rocky start w/ their future in-laws, they’ll eventually turn around and adore/spoil their grandkid(s)!

Like that fucker has so many fucking shows and movies can we please get someone else please.

And I get it he’s the money maker but like no one else will ever get a chance to be the money maker if you don’t invest in it.

Like maybe if DC actually bothered to take risk and do something else besides Batman and occasionally Superman all the time, other characters would gain an audience and get popular.

Yuji as Hercules, Megumi as Meg (hah), Sukuna or Kenajku as Hades. Gojo as Phil. Nobara/Choso as Pegasus (I'd make them more human than pet)

Like do yall see the vision. Or am I tripping? Even a reverse AU with Hercules as Megumi, Meg as Yuji works too.

And they’ll say no it’s cause she’s not attractive you ask them okay name another dark skin actress you find attractive that can play her and it’s crickets.

Then it’s oh she should be Greek but then they name some other white actress who’s not that pretty and it’s like so it was never about her not being Greek or attractive but her not being white. Cool.

My Will was found by Jason fourth season fanfic AU has literally taken a life of its own.

Cause why did I save Eddie I don’t even like him and I made him and Jason childhood besties (for a few summers anyways)

How did we get here?

I just can’t decided on ships. Cause like if Will is never found do I have Mike and El still date or even Bob and Joyce cause Bob wouldn’t have died. There’s no spy. Ughhhh.

Ain’t no way people think they got rid of Zuko’s scar as some sort of anti zutara agenda. yall are delusional like actually. Mind you in the show they had animation goofs where his eye scar would be on the wrong side…. Like

Also being mad that the show that’s about Aang and the movie called legend of Aang is focusing on Aang and his canon relationship which is kataang.

Claiming they drew Aang hot so people would ship them more I can’t.

And then on the opposite side you have have kataang people who are swearing up and down the Netflix one is gonna end in zutara based of nothing

Like yall are reaching. Zuko and Katara had two big moments and that’s it. Calm down. Aang and Katara also had moments.

The actors have literally stated it’s following canon relationships and you guys are crying over ship bait, that was featured in the original show.

And if it did happen does it matter when the original canon show and ending is still there.

It’s always the dumbest fucking takes and conspiracy theories in this fandom when it comes to ships.

Note they don’t know how bad the wish is. It’s just characters who are so desperate to be loved by the person they like they’d make the wish innocently, not knowing the consequences.

Also this ain’t assuming they’d word it the same way just that they’d make the wish that their crush liked them back.

Omfg I don’t even like his character that much but yall pissing me off with the mischaracertization. TikTok and twitter posts driving me insane.

Season 1 Steve wouldn’t even make the wish cause he gets every girl. He’d be hurt and sad about it then move on, he was not that in love with her yet. He let his friends slutshame her, he ain’t making the wish.

The same Steve who when he found out Nancy and Jonathan cheated on him gave them his blessing and said it’s okay in season 2. Not making the wish.

The same Steve who was in love with her all season 3 and did nothing about it cause she’s dating Jonathan. And was lowkey moving on to Robin (before the reveal) not making the wish.

Season 4 where they were both actively flirting with each other and as soon as Jonathan came back on the picture and Nancy went back to him Steve did nothing but smile sadly. not making the wish

Season 5 is a shit show I don’t count that, but even then his goal is make Jonathan look bad and compete with him, not make Nancy love me. Like end goal is obviously look good for Nancy and win her heart but he spent all his time focused on one upping Jonathan.

Dude would never make the wish.

List of people who’d make the wish before Steve or Jonathan

Will, Hopper, Max, Robin, Mike, ironically Nancy, - the wishes wouldn’t be them straight up wishing for love but very much related to it.

Lucas was slightly mean season one and the fandom treated his character and Caleb like shit and were racist af to him. Mike was mean af randomly throughout all five seasons and crickets.

Erica comes in super sarcastic and bratty season three and they jumped down her and Priah's throats. Meanwhile Max was introduced that way season two, and lowkey so was Robin, but again crickets.

'But they're just better written'. My ass. The same fandom where half of yall still doesn't believe Billy was racist even after Caleb and Dacre literally spelled it out for you. Fuck outta here with that nonsense. This fandom can be so infuriating and if you call it out especially on reddit, it's why you gotta bring race into it, as if the fandom didn't do it themselves (Priah and Caleb both being insulted and called slurs for their characters)

Backlash so bad for both of them after their introduction season they don't do shit and have little to no real plot of their own they might as well be background characters for the rest of the series.

The way it's just like real life and it irks me so bad. Everyone gets to be an asshole without major backlash besides black people. Always have to be a model citizen cause people are just itching to start going see told you they were bad any moment they get. (Usual suspects, 13 percent, etc comments) let a non black person do something and it's fucking crickets. But somehow one black person represents all, but yet people ignore all the shitty people another racial groups doing the same shit.

IIRC her and Will are not actual siblings who fuck with each other that way sadly.

She would be so hurt and sad and bitter if her and Mike broke up and Will and Mike started dating. Like all her friends are Mike’s. That’s how she met them. Can you imagine her thought process she and Mike break up and then she’s like fuck what if this means I have no one.

Cause she met Dustin and Lucas through Mike, hell even Max joined the group through Mike agreeing. She’d be so scared and sad about losing them. Plus Joyce she's like damn Will is dating Mike, why am I even here. Why are you being nice to me. (Hell it's canon that she thinks Hopper is using her as a replacement for Sarah)

Or have even worked with him as Phantom as reluctant allies. Like yes it’s fanfiction but did some of yall even watch the show. It’s so terribly OOC and I feel like I’m crazy cause I’m the only one it bothers everybody else be eating it up like crazy. The fact that this has been the trope for like 20 years too…

Bitter Reunions - Danny himself states he know his parents will accept him no matter what.

Reality Trip - accepted and fine

Million Dollar Ghost - Jack lets him go they have a truce

Ultimate Enemy - accepted and fine? (Memory fuzzy)

Masters of Time - bro didn’t even exist and they accepted him and loved him like

Finale - accepted and fine

Yet everyone watched or didn’t watch and just went nah they’d never accept him. Lemme write my OOC abusive evil Fenton parent fanfic.

And like I used to eat it up but idk now that I’m older I kinda can’t stand it.

It’s so hard searching for fics in the DP fandom. If it’s not this it’s all crossover with Batman. Or a combo of the two that follow the exact same plot. Tortured, run sways, adopted by Bruce, dates a batboy or girl. Ugh. I’m tired grandpa
