do you ever feel bad being a larry? like sometimes when i see anti stuff it does make me feel like im supporting something im not supposed too
thatâs exactly what antis want, though. their entire goal is to make you doubt yourself, to make you second-guess what youâve seen with your own eyes. they twist things, use guilt tactics, and act like they hold some moral high ground, when really, theyâre just uncomfortable with the idea that they might be wrong.
but iâll be honest â i donât ever feel bad about being a larrie. not even a little. because i know what i believe in is real. iâve seen too much, heard too much, felt too much truth in their art, their words, their actions. itâs not just fanfiction or wishful thinking; itâs patterns and parallels that have lasted for years, things that donât just âhappenâ by coincidence. thereâs too much intention there, too much connection to brush off as delusion. and itâs no different than believing in any other celebrity relationship, except this one challenges how the industry works, and how queerness has been handled within it. thatâs why itâs targeted so heavily.
antis can say whatever they want, but theyâre not trying to âprotectâ anyone â theyâre trying to silence belief, because belief is powerful. when people believe in something that goes against the narrative theyâve been fed, it threatens the illusion. and the truth is, they donât like how right we often turn out to be.
the other part of this is that so much of what antis say is rooted in the fact that they refuse to even consider that two men like harry and louis couldâve ever been together. and that refusal says a lot more about them than it does about us. thereâs a ton of homophobic undertones in the way they frame things.
not every anti is blatantly homophobic, sure. some are even part of the lgbtq+ community themselves. but internalized bias is real, and a lot of people donât recognize it in their own thinking. the idea that harry and louis âcouldnât possiblyâ be together often comes from a place of deeply ingrained disbelief â the kind that still sees queerness as unrealistic or too far-fetched when it comes to people in the spotlight.
so no, i donât feel bad. i feel sure. i know where my faith stands, and itâs not shaken by noise online. because at the end of the day, what i believe in has always been rooted in love â not in hate, not in projection, not in anything harmful. and thatâs something theyâll never be able to take away.
