the reason people who are older and have been in fandom for longer are constantly telling you to NOT bring up fanfics/fandom to writers, producers and actors it’s not only bc it’s NOT FOR THEM, but also bc they can take legal actions against it and make those spaces disappear
i hate when people call taylor swift a republican, not because i want to defend her but because i need people to understand democrats can suck too. like she’s textbook white liberal democrat. AND she sucks. y’all gotta grow up from republican = bad, democrat = good 😭
too many people have eyes on ao3 atp and its gonna make media producers/executives actually start going after fanfic legally 😭 some of y'all forget this is a legal gray area and sometimes is straight up illegal
