@Johnaytbw they even reference Bey or mention her in kdramas. i know this is just one example, but there's no way anyone is going to convince me that those two haven't had a significant impact or aren't widely recognised beyond the US
@Mimi9526296441@AyraAttorney the week starrgirl dropped, came across a tiktok from a girl who linked a video she'd made last year, talking about how she had a feeling ayra was going to have a really good run this year. she said a lot, can't remember all the details, but that's the summary of it
the psychological discomfort it creates is almost excessive, especially as a black viewer, to the point where I wouldn't be particularly bothered if the series never returned
I finally finished "them" after having to take a break from it because of just how deeply unsettling it was. and coming from someone who likes horror, that's saying something.
like I wasn't necessarily overwhelmed by the horror genre itself. I was uncomfortable with the nature of the horror being presented and how relentlessly the series uses deeply distressing subject matter to sustain that discomfort

Convos about Chloe never go anywhere because the people who constantly critique her don’t like her enough to see her as human. Yes, that girl is defensive… she can’t do anything “good enough” for most people 😭
@MrMouthAlmighty and it makes people so uncomfortable that they can't control her or dictate how she should behave or create, according to their expectations. i hope she always protects that part of herself and never loses it
@iamnel__@ulxma she didn't and isn't asking for their help. when are yall going to understand and accept that? like clearly she doesn't want yall doing all this but ppl keep pushing it and making themselves mad over her just doing what she wants to do. which is to create
@ulxma bro i'm tired like... clearly chloe is passionate about creating, and very talented. she clearly very much loves it, if you don't like it, just move on??? why is that so hard for them. leave her alone to create the music she wants to create omgggg
they're literally doing the same thing to mannywellz on tiktok, telling him his accent sounds weird on R&B. meanwhile, his accent and voice is what makes the songs hit even harder. like just leave african artists alone
@0nlynavy they'll say she's not authentic and wants to be rih so bad. oh and they won't even support her because colorism and xenophobia. it'll be "she's cosplaying" "she's trying to deny her culture"
