• ao3 operates in a legal gray area. advertising it like this is BAD
• brands using ao3 for promo is BAD
• actors being too involved in fandom historically doesn’t end well
• exposing fics to normies to be mocked & ridiculed is cruel

@filmbitten Actually, I know it seems bleak, now is a great time to get into it. Film history shows when major changes like this happen we see a major boom in indie/international movies. Happened in the 70s then the 90s I see the same trend now. Stay vigilant and keep creating!
Because a handful of billionaires are exploiting every aspect of our survival for profit — and if you complain about or try to change it; the politicians they pay off, the media they own, and the bots on the social media platforms they control, call you “radical.”
I truly don’t understand how we’ve gotten here as a society. I don’t understand how people are so stupid. I literally cannot comprehend it and it makes me feel insane :)
