"Fandom isn't as important as you think it is."

Honestly, that sums up the entire thing.

[inthegrass]

Sarah: the reading comprehension on this site is piss-poor
bird app users: how dare you say we piss on the poor

[yourstruly]

"Everyone should delete Twitter" is honestly a valid take. My life is happier without it.

[Archetrixxx]

I wish instead of calling things "problematic" people would just say what actually happened.

Every time I watch a Sarah Z video I feel like I am an 80 year old woman whose granddaughter is explaining what she's learning in school which is wild because I am like four years younger than her

[Izzzyzzz]

wtf Sarah? I’ve just heard from some internet users that you literally support kicking puppies??? sorry but I’m gonna have to unsubscribe 🙄

[DillyBar]

The irony of people commenting “you have never been the victim of a harrasment campaign” as a part of a harrasment campaign is palpable

[starchild]

see, the labels "proshippers" and "antis" are so reductive that i don't consider myself either, but what annoys me is both sides refuse to admit they've got weirdos who take it too far in their own respective circles.

[juliacudney]

i strongly considered tweeting in defense of you at the time, but i talked myself out of it by imagining explaining the controversy to my grandma

[HBMmaster]

the term "anti-anti" is the single funniest label for any ideology ever. "I oppose people who are against. things"

[BanthaWorship]

Before this: I'm a fan of things!
After this: I enjoy things a normal amount, actually.

[LorewithouttheE]

the whole pro and anti thing has always confused me tbh; my general take on it is: write/draw/etc what you want, but TAG & LABEL IT PROPERLY. that way, folks who don't wanna see it don't have to (unless they're the type of....odd folks who delve into tags for things they dislike instead of avoiding/blocking/etc...) and folks who do wanna see it can find it easier.

[kc-johnson]

After watching this, I think the term “proshippers” needs to be reclaimed by professional ship-in-a-bottle builders, and “antis” needs to be reclaimed by ant-farm enthusiasts. Give these fine hobbyists their words back!

[yearoldeastercandy]

I despise some people’s use of “problematic” because they mean either a piece of media has a single bigoted character or that a piece of media is encouraging and praising an ideology based in eugenics.

[latikatika]

I just want to point out that without ‘antis’ as their opposite, the label “pro-shippers” makes them sound like professional shippers

[cheapentertainment]

Never actually using Twitter seems to be the most self-care thing I've ever done for myself lol

[Nightthade]

"Sarah Z poisoned our water supply, burned our crops, and delivered a plague upon our houses!" "She did?"
"No, but are we just gonna wait around until she does!?"
This is what twitter people sound like

[PasCorrect]

I'd say this is a weird hill to die on, but I'd probably be accused of mocking REAL KIDS WHO DIE ON HILLS.

[kurb]

Twitter really be the kind of place where you can say "I like pancakes" and someone else will take that as "I hate waffles"
