And may I just say: I’m so fucking disappointed in everyone that heckled Jensen. I don’t care whether you thought you were joking or not - that shit hurts.

Here’s the thing that I don’t think you guys - the ones that are mean to the actors - understand: Dean Winchester and Jensen Ackles are two completely separate beings. 

Sure, Dean has been a bit of an ass this season. I get that. And if Jack is your baby, I completely understand - you can hiss and boo and heckle Dean all you want. He will not care one bit.

Here’s what you’re not allowed to do: harass Jensen because of that.

Jensen Ackles is a real person with real emotions. He doesn’t have much of a choice what Dean does or says - he’s only an actor. He’s only doing his job to support his loving family. And don’t forget, this is the man that:

Helped raise over $220K for Hurricane Harvey relief.

Was terrified when Daneel & his kids were stuck in TX while he was in Canada during the storm.

Supports the Alzheimer's Association, American Cancer Society, and Operation Smile, among others

Supports Jared’s AKF campaign

Oh, and:

Generally loves each and every con he goes to.

However, that will probably cease to be the case if things continue like this. Jensen could do what Mark (Sheppard) did and leave the show - if Jensen leaves, Dean ceases to exist, and the show will soon follow. People like the ones that heckle actors for their character’s actions could be what ends the show sooner rather than later.

And that’s not even the full reason why I’m disappointed. Guys, we were supposed to be the model fandom. We have - or used to have - such a glowing respect and admiration for both our actors and our characters. We fought in the Great Bieber War of 2014, for Chuck’s sake! And now we do stuff like this? And not only SPNDC - remember JIBCON 2014. 

I am by no means blaming the entire fandom, but to those of you that are responsible for this: it needs to stop. And it needs to stop now, before you damage the show that we all love or the people that are a part of it beyond repair.
