Ever read something and get appalled by the lack of reading comprehension readers have
Like, have you ever been frustrated enough to personally go through the screen and send them back to middle school?? I don't know how some people COMPLETELY ignore a story's nuances and a characters' motivations and mischaracterize them. It's genuinely so frustrating to see when a well written flawed character just gets called something shallow like an 'asshole' as the readers refuse to see the reason why those twisted feelings and experiences led to them making those decisions. You can hate someone for their actions but these readers basically lack enough reading comprehension and moral compass to not understand that not every character is designed to be the hot bod perfect green forest perfect family perfect past perfect life MLs/FLs they see in 90% of stories.
People cry out "We need more character depth nowadays! " Yet can't even handle a flawed character who made bad decisions because of their own humane irrationality.
ennead readers calling seth, a man who has been raped & brutally violated for more than half of the story, a slut or a whore just because he's not head over heels in love with the ml. said ml proceeds to kill his (ex?) wife that he still deeply cares about, so seth gouges his eyes out, and people are saying horus deserves better. its literally alw...... 2 reply
This but with BALLBOY TACTICS. Holy crap the way they misunderstand his character so much?? It's so sad! Like he's not "stupid" or "annoying" some ppl lack empathy these days I swear. He's a queer man in closet, he doesn't like public attention. He literally has social anxiety and dudes overthink alot which that makes him a unique and flawed charac...... 1 reply
This is the main reason why stop interacting with some fandoms, the amount of times I had to walk people through the most basic parts of the stories bc it would fly over their heads made want to smash my phone into pieces reply
I so get this and that's the whole reason I've stayed off of comment sections lately.
But.
I want to express my own opinion. One is how some people think that just because you hate a character mean you don't understand them, the nuances of the character, and their backgrounds. That's not true at all. You can hate a character for their actions e...... 1 reply
the danmei community was blessed with meatbuns works and didnt know how to act. the bl community cannot use their brain cells when the work doesnt have a lezhin label attached. the manga community in general are brainwashed like sheep and critical understanding on a comprehensive level does not exist. a lot of people just need a crash course in cla...... reply
Now I do think that media literacy is dying but also as I’ve gotten older I’ve realised that generally most people are just dumb. I would have to say 60% of the population has always just ever seen things at face value maybe even more throughout history . They don’t care about what’s under the veil they aren’t interested in digging deeper...... 1 reply
Gosh this has happened so many times it's kinda infuriating. Not exactly the same as your frustrations, but the first one that popped into my mind was Yoo Joonghyuk, who constantly gets mischaracterised as stoic, op ML when really he's got a lot more depth. I can partly attribute that to the webtoon as they miss out some interactions due to panelli...... reply
literally the 1-2 star raters of this manhwa, THESE BITCHES CLEARLY DON'T CARE FOR THE NUANCE OF THIS HORROR BL, they think this is just some pointless no plot smut slop but UNLIKE THOSE ACTUAL TRASHY rape fest bls they read, this one carries meaning their little gooner brains can't comprehend. let's not even start w the "this feels blasphemous to ...... 2 reply
im glad you’re calling this out because ive been meaning to as well. i know people read these stories as an escape from the world BUT the world is everywhere. you cant escape literature, storytelling, and digging into the deeper meaning of a passage. these things are crucial to what makes a story good and the fact that people are fine with brushi...... reply
