🚨BTS’ Jungkook attended a Hublot event today.
Hublot previously released an Israel 70th Anniversary watch in partnership with Pride of Israel, whose project stated that proceeds would support IDF soldiers and their families.
it’s been a month and some of you still don’t understand the problem.
it’s okay to attend concerts of artists you’ve criticised for their mistakes, esp if you’re still a fan and like them.
the issue with cb is he’s not an artist that has made a mistake, he’s a CRIMINAL
the armys who actually listen to bts. who don't just use their activism as bragging rights, KNOW that bts been speaking on gender equality in and outside of schedules. hold these men to their own standards
Been stanning Bts for 6 years now, kept up with each of the members, are the only group I consistently consume content from, always defended them from unnecessary hate, just to be called an anti for wanting them to use their platform for good and speak up for human rights🤓
Since some of you still say that namjoon and hoseok “just went to a concert” in my comments, then let’s talk about what they actually did.
RM and j-hope went to Chris Brown’s concert, happily shared stories enjoying the show, tagged him to their millions of followers and publicly described meeting the other co-artist as an honour (do your research on him, too).
They also praised a performance that, in my opinion, was vulgar and degrading towards women on stage.
They gave that association a huge platform. And shortly afterwards, Chris Brown felt comfortable enough to enter an ARMY’s tiktok comments and called her a “hoe”.
BTS doesn’t only have adult fans. There are minors, girls and boys who look up to them. Have you stopped to think about what message this sends to those kids?
That’s more than simply being in a crowd listening to music. They chose to attend, chose to publicly share the positive experience and chose to amplify it to millions of people.
And no, they’re not perfect. Artists can make mistakes. What has hurt their fans most is what came after: the dismissive, defensive attitude, the manipulation, the lack of acknowledgement and the impression that they were the ones being wronged rather than addressing why their fans were hurt in the first place.
So please stop reducing all of that to “they just went to a concert.” That’s not the whole story and you know it.
Twisting his words my ass. His silence opens the floodgates of interpretation. This isn't his first rodeo. He chooses to say these words at this moment. The period of giving him grace has ended. He knows what he is doing and he isn't sorry. If you can't see it now, you never will
i'm gonna be honest, i have no words left to say with this whole namseok thing, it changed my whole perspective to the whole group, the moment they chose to be silent instead of speaking up, i am left with nothing but an empty words from them.
