EX-FAMILY is expanding, EXILE TRIBE and other LDH artists are gaining popularity all over the globe.
How is this a concern? We should be happy right?
Well the thing is, when a fandom expands, it has pros and cons. A pro would be that there would be more people to love and appreciate the artists and for us fans, there would be more people to talk and fangirl/boy with. However, we the cons. Along with the expanding fandom comes the toxic and immature fans. It would be great if all the fans would be chill and be mature when dealing with some fandom stuff, but no.
I have experienced dealing with someone like this recently and it bothers me. (I don't hate them, and I respect their opinion). But let me just say that whatever our artists would do in future, even if it concerns leaving the group, is not our serious business and should not be the basis for hating that artist.
As fans we should be mature enough to accept what they would want to do with their lives. If the artist involve and their company has no problem with it, then we shouldn't also. I know it hurts a lot and it will forever leave a scar in our hearts but we must not let this be a reason for hating the said artist. That is toxic mindset! EXILE TRIBE and its members don't belong to us! I repeat
They do not belong to us!
They are people as well! They have their own private lives that we don't know of. They have dreams that they want to achieve! Some of those dreams they cannot do so when staying in the group. Don't be selfish and say "I feel betrayed and will not forgive him/her." Why? Are they bounded to you? Should they just abandon their dreams and other passions just so they can satisfy you? If the other members don't have a problem with it then, why do you have? If you truly love that person you would be willing enough to support whatever thing they would like to undertake. What we can do for them is support them, and send them off without making is heavier for them and for us. Their talent wouldn't go anywhere, in fact, it might be that they would have more facilities and freedom to show it off.
Furthermore! When praising our artists let us not bring others down. New fans have that mindset where they think that their artists are the best in the world when in fact (let's all be honest to ourselves) they are not. Don't get me wrong, they are the best for US FANS (they are our kings/queens), nevertheless, others might not think of it that way. Respect those opinions! Respect other people's preferences!
We fans don't exist to fight over who is the greatest but to appreciate what our fave artists do. Among the EXFAM, let's remember that THERE IS NO COMPETITION AMONG EXILE TRIBE MEMBERS SO DON'T MAKE ONE! WE ARE A FAMILY! EXILE TRIBE IS A HUGE FAMILY!! So please don't compare them. They each have their uniqueness, appreciate that and be content!
Sorry that this has become a long post and I may seem like I'm throwing tantrums but I just want to remind all of us that we are a family. 😓 We can't be perfect but maybe at least we can try to do what families need to do and that is to support family members.
I hope that we can all get along not only for the sake of our faves but also for our own sakes. 😌
If you read this until the end, you have my greatest thanks 🙇💕 I also apologize for making you read this long post. 😅
