@piedpiper_sea 31, kinda hobbylos aktuell seit nem Unfall 😭 Davor Kletterin. Liebe Kaffee, Kino, lesen, Natur, gut essen, Sauna,… Genussmensch ist vielleicht das richtige Wort
The whole “the best fanfiction you’ll ever read is written by a 13 year old” idea needs to die. The best fanfic you’ll ever read is written by a 30+ lesbian or asexual with a full time job
To Namjoon,
You had the clearest opportunity today to address the Chris Brown situation and you chose not to.
So I’m not going to keep asking you to talk about it. Your silence is an answer in itself even if it’s not the answer many of us wanted.
What I still find frustrating is the idea that we should simply “separate the art from the artist.” How are we supposed to do that when you spent years making your art so deeply connected to who you are, what you believe in, and the values you publicly shared with us?
You didn’t just give us music. You gave us your words, your beliefs, and your perspective. You asked us to listen to what you had to say about the world. That connection was part of what made your art meaningful to so many of us.
And if those messages were only something you used to sell records, while you privately believe something completely different, then that makes the situation even more absurd and sick. It would mean that the values people connected with were just a performance and that the person behind the art was never really present in it at all.
So when your actions contradict the values we associated with you, of course that changes how some of us experience your work. That isn’t hate. It isn’t “being an anti.” It’s a natural consequence of seeing the person behind the art contradict those values.
You are free to make your choices. But we are equally free to decide what those choices mean to us.
And honestly, telling people to separate the art from the artist feels less like maturity and more like avoiding an uncomfortable reality.
I’m not asking you for an apology anymore.
I just wonder whether the values you spent years talking about still mean what I thought they meant.
Today, you had the opportunity to tell us.
You chose silence.

I found another interesting article from a Korean newspaper. So this lady who was the brains for all the content we enjoyed in the past like Bangtan TV and Run! BTS also left and is now the CEO for Retopia Salon.
I think I’ve finally put all the puzzle pieces together. We’re cooked 😭
When we were kids, the hole in the ozone layer was a problem and the people with power just decided they would fix it (Montreal Protocol). (And it worked.) So you can't blame us for thinking we'd enter into an age where people will always be just like that.
@Randalemama Ein BEM ist nicht verkehrt. Das kommt aus dem Sozialgesetzbuch und dient dazu gemeinsam Maßnahmen zu entwickeln, um Krankheit zu verhindern. Vlt gibts ja was, schadet ja nicht…
I'm not going to let the fandom or bts themselves rage bait me every single day so I'm going to say this once and never again (unless its necessary). BTS need an honest and serious conversation about what they align their names with.
i really think BTS need to take another long break to truly recharge & figure out exactly what it is they want out of their lives & careers. jumping straight back into releasing albums & touring immediately after something as traumatic as military service was a terrible mistake.
fact is you guys played around in english class your entire lives, not taking it seriously, reading the materials through online plot summaries and now you wonder why you don’t actually understand anything
“Vocês estão agindo como se eles é que tivessem cometido os crimes”
Não amor, se eu estivesse agindo assim essa conta nem existiria mais, meus álbuns teriam virado cinzas e meus ingressos estariam rasgados
Estamos agindo como fãs decepcionados, só isso
@tayalovebot Bin voll bei dir nur weiß ich nicht wo dieser hate ist von dem jeder spricht? Klar gibts auf Sm immer paar Kommentare die aus dem Rahmen fallen. Aber ich glaube was sich wie hate anfühlt ist diese krasse Welle der Enttäuschung, die so laut wird, weil sies einfach wegignorieren
Sharing an ARMY’s post from Weverse because I was moved by her love and sincerity:
“I’m feeling a bit sad today, so I’d like to talk here, maybe because I’ve always felt comfortable enough with BTS to let my voice flow freely.
I’ve been in the fandom for many years. I’ve defended the members from many things that have happened, and I’ve understood and supported them when they decided to share their perspectives on various issues, including the fandom's own attitudes. I was all ears for you for years, always trying to understand you and change what you didn’t like about us.
That’s why today, I’d like you to listen to me.
I joined this fandom because I always felt that BTS genuinely cared about listening to us, that your words and actions were authentic, and that I had found a place where I could feel understood. I’ve always believed you are good people, and I still do; otherwise, I wouldn’t be posting this.
I don’t blame you for the things CB has done. I find him despicable, and I’ve always felt nothing but disgust and repulsion toward him. He has done horrible things for which, obviously, no member of BTS is to blame, and which I am certain you would never condone. However, I can’t overlook the fact that giving him visibility through concert stories and photos feels like a huge mistake. Even if you don’t intend to, that content reaches thousands of people and ends up cleaning the image of someone who doesn't deserve it and who should be far away from the stage. I don’t believe that was your intention, but sometimes we do things that trigger consequences we don't foresee, even if it wasn't our goal. And it’s okay to ask ourselves if that’s the image we want to project, if that’s the effect we want to create.
I get it, nobody is perfect, and I’m not saying otherwise. I think we all have our own contradictions, but I personally like it when people point mine out so I can grow and become a better person. BTS has said many times that you’d love ARMY to be the kind of fandom that doesn't put you on a pedestal, allowing you to make mistakes and learn from them.
I know you would love to live a normal life where everything you do isn't judged by thousands of people, but unfortunately, that’s not the reality, and the decisions you make carry a lot of weight. If a person like CB continues to be respected in the industry and keeps filling stadiums, it’s because many people choose to ignore what he did and pretend it never happened. But it did happen, and none of it can be erased. And it hurts me deeply that you chose to look the other way. You are not to blame for what CB did, nor are you the only ones supporting him, but it hurts particularly with you because you are people I love and hold in high regard. Many people can do something I consider wrong, but it will always hurt more coming from a friend, my family, or you in this case. Not because I hold you to a different standard, but because I hold a deep affection for you. I suppose you can understand that feeling; it also hurts you when ARMY makes mistakes, and you also expect a lot from us because you know us and love us.
This doesn't erase all the support women have received from you, I do NOT believe any of that was performative. I believe in you, I believe you are good people, but I also believe good people can make mistakes, and I think you made one here. I know that you, as men, have no idea what we as women go through, and that’s why I’d like you to understand how painful it is for us to see people like CB continue to receive love and applause despite having caused so much harm to some of us. It feels so lonely and desolate, as if music mattered more than our lives and our integrity.” (Cont)
Everyone keeps saying they're disappointed in BTS but let me tell you, the amount of respect I lost for many women within this fandom in the last 2 days has been crazy. God forbid
@carabonar37564@hopekookcollab My last statement stands. And who says they are criminals lol…moreover handling a criminal would be…a black ocean? This is so mixed up. And fortunately you can’t dictate peoples feelings so no and no and NO 😊
