this tiktok comment actually infuriates me and is part of why i disregard rachel reid’s opinions sometimes — commenter goes on to reply to others and say (along the lines of) “then argue with rachel herself”
other things abt rachel herself:
- literally only has ilya in her other stories (shane mentions are few/far between let alone APPEARANCES)
- claims shane’s eating habits are normal
- makes her only POC hockey player the bottom in her ONLY strictly top/bottom relationship (i’m sorry if these aren’t the correct terms)
i once saw a tweet criticizing hr by saying it’s a gay relationship with an asian man so you know who the woman is and it woke me up to where im a little embarrassed to admit being a fan. i love hudcon etc but i hate the twitter fandom space and people like this commenter who are so dense and racist that they make everyone look bad. it’s exhausting to be in any of those spaces where you’re thinking am i the only normal one here? it’s also embarrassing to admit i didn’t realize the shortcomings of the source material until i’ve had it pointed out to me, but then there’s some people who have it pointed out and continue to spew their rhetoric with no shame.
i wanted to have some discussion going and feel like a lot more people on here are more normal aka not racist and hateful.
