dulu pernah baca, "tulis aja meskipun jelek. seengganya kamu berhasil bikin satu tulisan jelek, daripada dipikirin dan end up ga berani nulis apapun". well, itu membekas sih. aku jd lebih pede kl nulis, apapun itu. pokoknya tulis aja dulu drpd ga nulis sama sekali.
If you think DaouOffroad is only BL ship/BL actor, please block/mute/unfol me. I’m tired reading queerbaiting accusations when they’re actually queers facing discrimination&homophobia. Every relationship is unique, don’t project your negativity on them if you don’t know anything
Everyone has so much expectations of OuRoad especially Daou, but even when he says nothing and everyone has found their “gotcha” moment, he is STILL the one left facing and seeing all the homophobic comments about his sexuality and sexual expression. It’s been going on for two days now you know . But where is everyone who claims that it’s easy , come out to defend him?
He’s literally liking tweets about the discrimination he faces in this industry, yet where is the same energy to defend him and actually call it out? Yeah. Silence. Like this isn’t the same person who was cut from a broadcast he filmed when they realized or or or when ppl on his film crew of a bl series mind you were on Facebook calling him all sorts of slurs
Y’all want him—and his relationship—to be loud, public, and visible when it’s convenient for you, but the moment he’s actually facing homophobia and all the discrimination he’s faced in an industry that has never exactly been kind to queer artists, suddenly it’s crickets.
Everyone has such a skewed, black-and-white perspective on everything. As if we haven’t watched what happens to artists when people decide they’ve finally found a “safe space” for them. Safe space, my ass.
And the worst part? NONE OF THIS GOES VIRAL. The outrage only seems to matter when it fits the narrative people already want to push. When OuRoad are l actually being subjected to homophobia and discrimination, the timeline goes quiet.
Performative hypocrisy
After everything that’s happened, I’ve started wondering if our OuRoad fandom accidentally appointed too many unofficial spokespersons. 😂
It’s funny how the actual fans are perfectly fine, while people who aren’t even fans are the ones acting heartbroken, claiming that we’ve been deceived, that the fans are being lied to, and so on. If you didn’t know better, you’d think they were the self-appointed guardians of the queer community, fighting so hard to “protect” everyone. 🙃
And then there are people who try to use what our boys are going through as an opportunity to drag them down just so they can hype up their own faves. If your people ever have to go through a situation like this, I hope you’ll be able to stay as calm and grounded as we are.
You don’t need to pity us. We trust our boys. We love and stan them because we genuinely admire their abilities and truly cherish the bond between the two of them.
Inside the green circle between our boys and their fans, you’re simply outsiders who have nothing to do with it.
If there’s one thing we’re sad about, it’s seeing our two boys being judged and criticized by people who can’t even distinguish right from wrong and simply follow whatever everyone else is saying.
Next time, before criticizing or analyzing a situation, please take the time to properly check the facts and understand what actually happened first.
Though, I guess explaining it wouldn’t help much when there’s no brain to process it anyway. 😂
