@Seoulfull_JJ@uarmesol Well, im diagnosed with adhd, so i read a lot abt it, and i read a lot abt autism too before my diagnosis, and i think adhd and autism overlap in some ways, so i see it as a full spectrum? I discussed it with friends who are diagnosed with adhd and they feel it this way too
i’ll never move on how “if you think you’re gonna crash, accelerate even harder, you idiot” & “i can feel the high waves coming, why you run away? you can run in” is Yoongi essentially saying the same thing a decade apart, just w a bit more peace & a lot of life lived in between.
for those who are lost about the whole BTS Peru situation, here's what's been going on:
- so namjoon had posted on wv asking ppl to stop gathering outside their hotels because the noise was disturbing the members, staff AND other hotel guests, leaving them unable to sleep properly and potentially affecting their performances, he thanked everyone for the warm welcome and asked for privacy across their upcoming stops too.
- instead of acknowledging his concerns, some people started calling him xenophobic and defending themselves rather than accepting that boundaries need to be respected.
- then came the narrative that the people outside weren't ARMY. but with the drone shows, people singing Hooligan word for word and all the other activities happening, how can anyone confidently claim to know who everyone is? none of these things prove individual identities, but simply saying “they're not ARMY” doesn't solve the problem either.
- some genuine Peruvian ARMYs have reportedly been trying to redirect people away from the hotel through alternative location posts, and there were reports of water tankers being used to disperse the crowd.
- YET, a huge crowd is reportedly still outside the hotel, with some people saying it's just a popular tourist spot and a holiday. maybe some people are genuinely tourists, but we can't assume everyone's intentions either way now do we??
- NOW, a dancer from BTS' crew has also spoken up, asking people to stay away from the hotel, stop making noise and stop sending pictures of the hotel because this behaviour isn't something to be proud of.
AND NOW THERE ARE REPORTS OF PEOPLE POINTING LASERS AT THEIR HOTEL ROOMS. this is beyond disturbing.
PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS WAS NEVER ABOUT PERU OR LATIN AMERICAN ARMYs. IT'S ABOUT BTS' PRIVACY, SAFETY AND BASIC HUMAN DECENCY.
they deserve to sleep, rest and prepare for their performances without being watched or disturbed. whether those people are ARMY or not, whether the location is a tourist spot or not, NONE OF THAT JUSTIFIES INVADING THEIR PRIVACY.
stop making this about defending a country's reputation or proving who's a real ARMY. listen to what namjoon actually asked for. BTS came to perform for us, not to have their hotel turned into a public attraction. LET THEM REST. 💜
bts refusing to participate in anything that doesn’t have their best interests is one of the hottest things ever, the boys spent years being underappreciated in the west i love seeing that they’re finally aware they ARE bigger than the music industry
