#twitter rants

I’m almost confident now that the two toxic tweets from Louis was a way to get more people to sign up for his discord.

I’d love to know where your head is at in relation to those tweets and his discord. Do you think there’s a correlation?

I'm newer to the Fandom and just wondering what your thoughts are now since the infamous tweet? Obviously the fans are divided. I'm disappointed truthfully but in all honesty I haven't been around long enough to see the pattern with louis and if this is the pattern. I of course question if he even wrote it himself or even meant it how it's being taken. I guess to my question: he has been quiet now . Almost MIA..he has some shows coming up..do you predict with the backlash he will still do his usual set list including 7 and changing of lyrics from "it" to "him"..or do you think we are going to see a whole different louis here? I see he's being accused of playing both sides of the Fandom just to keep everybody on the hook..seems rather cruel to say about him..but again I'm newer. Anyway just wanted your thoughts. Thanks again for always listening and being the voice of reason. I adore your blog.

Hi sugar. To be very honest, I can’t for the life of me figure out why that tweet was posted. I don’t get the timing. I don’t get the purpose.

I don’t think he actually wrote it because it doesn’t really sound like him. But, the way I see things, he’s still the boss and his team follows his directives. I know some people think he’s being forced to post things like that, but I don’t get who would be forcing him.

In the distant past, Louis and Harry used to get punished for stepping out of line (Eleanor would be flown in, Harry would be flown out, “Louis” would tweet something shitty, etc). In the less distant past, Harry and Louis would do things that felt like warnings that something shitty was coming down the pike (like, every time Louis wore skulls, a few days later we’d get some crappy stunt like Eleanor coming back or some babygate nonsense. Harry did a lot of lyric tweets and a lot of cryptic IG posts back in the day. There were a number of different patterns that happened back then that made it feel like we needed to brace for drama).

I’ve seen that some people think the Larry reel like and the t-shirt were a warning. But I haven’t seen a pattern of that happening in a long time, so I really don’t know. And, again, why would Louis post something that was bound to blow up his fandom right before AFHF tickets were supposed to go on sale?

And he had to know that’s what was going to happen, because the last time he made that stupid Chicken Parmesan tweet, the same thing happened and so many people sold their concert tickets or refused to go to his shows.

So… I’m just confused by the behavior. None of it makes sense and we’re obviously missing big chunks of information. Yes, he’s closeted and denials are survival. But the aggressive stance on larries is frustrating. He has every right to say he wants people to stop talking about his son/relationship/mom etc. But he also knows how toxic and frankly, scary, many of his fans are. The same request could have been made without whipping those people into a frenzy.

I think he (and Harry) play both sides of the fandom. But this is rather extreme (in both directions. Many solos were really angry about the Larry like, the compliments about Harry during SoccerAid, and his criticism of their opinions on him playing 1D songs). Equal opportunity anger doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me.

so idk if they do that to push larries away or to measure how many fans he can keep after doing that but regardless, it's incredibly dumb.

"In the past" is the key phrase here. In the past, his managers were hired by Simon/Syco/Sony. He had very little control. He isn't signed to a label now. He hired his managers. He hired his team. Why would his team operate against him, and why would he keep them on staff if they weren't following his directives? This theory doesn't make sense.

That is absolutely not real. That’s complete nonsense made up by someone who thinks this is the way corporate emails look and this is what shady managers would say.

No. There were denials posted on his Twitter back in the day (bullshit 1 and 2), there was the gross filmed denial with Dan Wootton (the "Larry organization" and "obviously" memes came out of that). But these aggressive Twitter posts coming out of nowhere, or randomly bringing up Larry in an interview, is new.

Back in the day, he or Harry would do something really obvious, and we all knew to expect the backlash shortly afterward because they were always punished by Simon. So, maybe he's trying to make up for his overly fond answer at SoccerAid and his super obvious liking of the Larry reel and the wearing of that T-shirt, but I don't know why. No one is forcing him to be a dark larrie on Main. If you know you're going to have to turn around and attack larries, why do that stuff in the first place? I just don't get it.
