Quien lo diría, creo que ni bts pensaría que sus mayores ant!s están entre sus preciadas fans que sin criterio propio los ponen en el mismo nivel que un artista cuestionable, pero no se ponen a pensar que hay quienes disfrutan la música sin saber sobre la vida del artista
The immediate backlash online against some of the BTS members J-Hope and Namjoon simply for attending an R&B concert and taking a picture with Chris Brown is a prime example of internet moral policing gone completely overboard. The toxic narrative trying to paint two grown men as suddenly "problematic" or "supporting abuse" because they met up with a massive musical contemporary is exhausting, hypocritical, and completely disconnected from how the entertainment industry works.
As a critic of this performative outrage, it is time to inject some reality and nuance into the conversation.
1. It is About the Music, Period
J-Hope and RM are, first and foremost, world-class musical artists, dancers, and hip-hop/R&B fans. Chris Brown, regardless of his highly publicized and heavily scrutinized personal history, is undeniably one of the most influential dancers and R&B performers of this generation.
•For J-Hope, a dancer who has dedicated his life to hip-hop choreography, witnessing the Usher and Chris Brown R&B Tour live is purely a matter of professional appreciation.
•Taking a photo backstage with a peer or a major global artist at a concert is standard industry behavior. It is not a political endorsement, nor is it a stamp of approval on anyone's personal mistakes.
2. The Hypocrisy of Selective Outrage
The internet loves to treat BTS like they live in an isolated bubble where they must maintain a flawless, untouchable moral standard that no other Western artist is forced to uphold.
•Major Western artists across the entire music industry including Rihanna herself, who later collaborated and reconciled with Chris Brown have worked with, hung out with, or publicly praised him.
•To suggest that J-Hope and Namjoon are uniquely "disappointing" or "betraying their morals" by taking a backstage photo is a massive, unfair double standard.
3. Grown Men Making Professional Choices
J-Hope and RM are grown men in their late 20s and early 30s. They are not characters in a curated fantasy narrative designed to perfectly coddle the internet's sensitivities. They are global music executives and performers navigating the real-world music industry. They have the absolute right to attend a concert, appreciate live music, and network with other major entities like Usher and Chris Brown without having their entire moral character assassinated by overreactive netizens.
The attempt to twist a fun, cross-cultural musical link-up into a narrative about condoning domestic violence is an Olympic-level stretch. It is entirely possible to separate an artist's personal past from their professional impact, and that is exactly what the Tannies are doing.
liderin namjoon olmasa hoseok olacağı o kadar belli ki üyelerin yanlış yerleştirildiğini fark edip nasıl müdahale ettiğine bakın futbol takımı bile yönetir bu adam
Además de abuchear la bandera española, poco se está hablando del abandono del concierto antes de que acabara. Dejando que los chicos vean como la gente los dejaba durante el discurso final, antes de las dos últimas canciones, para, eso sí, perseguirlos por toda la ciudad
@stup1dg1rlk@thebiglai_2 Exacto una rayita más al tigre, entre el acoso a los chicos día y noche, no dejarlos disfrutar de su estancia, ser groseras con las personas de otros países que fueron allá a verlos y salirse mucho antes del concierto, de lo peor que he visto y encima tienen los 🥚🥚de funar a MX
@tdnjeumi@jimindpity_@thebiglai_2 The thing is French ARMY were so disrespectful with people from other countries and they were stalking the boys all the freaking time, you can't be good and gentle with people that is so rude and disrespectful
@7iraethv Yo vengo a preguntar algo sinceramente: alguien más sigue llorando después de los conciertos?? Porque yo si, la semana pasada me eché varias lloradas y hoy ya me eché la primera, siento que no termino de procesar todo lo que viví
@belybellota@BTSARMY_MXCO De que hablas??? Jajaajaja tu malviaje cañón eeeehh se refería a que no estuvieron en la alfombra roja y muchos sintonizamos la transmisión para verlos desfilar y pues nadota jajajajaja y pues ya, no pasa nada, llegaron directo al evento con retraso y listo.
