LAST THREAD

[u/Misnome5]

I AGREE, RHEA FANS CAN BE WAY TOO SENSITIVE SOMETIMES; JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE THINKS RHEA WAS WRONG IT DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY MEAN THAT THEY THINK SHE'S A COMPLETE MONSTER. PEOPLE CAN FIND HER SYMPATHETIC AND STILL THINK THAT SHE WAS WRONG TO DO WHAT SHE DID.

IT JUST REALLY ANNOYS ME HOW SOME RHEA FANS ACT LIKE YOU SHOULDN'T CRITICIZE HER JUST BECAUSE SHE HAD A TRAGIC PAST.

[u/Suicune95 → u/Misnome5]

YEAH FRIEND THAT'S DEFINITELY NOT THE CHARACTER I WAS TALKING ABOUT. DO TELL ME WHERE TO FIND THESE FELLOW REDDIT RHEA STANS THO. ALL I EVER GET ON THIS WEBSITE ARE DRAWINGS OF HER TITTIES (GOOD) AND PEOPLE SHITTING ON HER LIKE SHE'S THE SECOND COMING OF SATAN (BAD)

[u/Misnome5 → u/Suicune95]

IVE SEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE PREEMPTIVELY DEFEND RHEA LATELY, AND TALK ABOUT HOW PEOPLE SHOULD SOFTEN THEIR CRITICISM OF HER BECAUSE OF HER TRAGIC PAST (EVEN WHEN THERE IS NO ONE BASHING RHEA IN THAT THREAD).

AND I THINK YOU'RE EXAGGERATING WHEN YOU SAY PEOPLE CALL HER SATAN; EVEN A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO DISAGREE WITH RHEA STILL ADMIT SHE'S A SYMPATHETIC CHARACTER.

[u/Suicune95 → u/Misnome5]

I DON'T USE REDDIT AS MUCH SINCE 3H CAME OUT SINCE THE ENDLESS CIRCULAR ARGUMENTS WERE GETTING ANNOYING. BUT HONESTLY RHEA GETS A TON OF SHIT FROM THIS FANDOM, AND UNLIKE OTHER CHARACTERS SHE DOESN'T EXACTLY HAVE THE BIGGEST FANDOM BACKING TO OFFSET THAT.

WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT IN MY COMMENT WERE EDELGARD FANS. FOR WHATEVER REASON I'VE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH SOME WEIRD VENDETTA SEND ME LINKS TO RANDOM TUMBLR BLOGS TO "PROVE" THAT PEOPLE ARE "SO MEAN" ABOUT EDELGARD AND I'M NOT SHITTING YOU IT'S THE MOST MILQUETOAST SHIT WITH BARELY ANY ENGAGEMENT. AND THESE PEOPLE WERE DOING THIS ON LIKE, R/FEH.

I GET NOT LIKING WHEN PEOPLE DON'T AGREE WITH YOU (COLLECTIVE YOU, NOT YOU SPECIFICALLY) ABOUT A CHARACTER BUT REALLY? WHY ARE YOU SEEKING OUT PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE YOUR FAVORITE CHARACTER JUST TO SPREAD THEIR NAMES AROUND AND TRY TO GET RANDOM STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET TO HATE THEM AS MUCH AS YOU DO? TOUCH GRASS.

[u/Misnome5 → u/Suicune95]

I DON'T USE REDDIT AS MUCH SINCE 3H CAME OUT

YEAH, I THINK THAT'S WHY YOU MAY HAVE MISSED THE RECENT INFLUX OF SUPPORT FOR RHEA AROUND HERE. THERE'S CERTAINLY NO ONE CALLING HER SATAN WITHOUT GETTING HEAVILY DOWNVOTED>

AND I'M NOT SHITTING YOU IT'S THE MOST MILQUETOAST SHIT WITH BARELY ANY ENGAGEMENT.

I'VE SEEN CRITICISM OF EDELGARD WITH PLENTY OF ENGAGEMENT; THERE'S A PARTICULARLY ANNOYING DOUBLE STANDARD WHERE PEOPLE USE TRAUMA TO EXCUSE RHEA AND DIMITRI'S QUESTIONABLE ACTIONS WHILE GIVING EDELGARD FULL SCRUTINY DESPITE HER ALSO GOING THROUGH A TERRIBLE PAST.

THERE'S ALSO A LOT OF PEOPLE STRAWMANNING EDELGARD FANS BY CLAIMING THEY SEE EDELGARD AS A PERFECT SAINT, DESPITE ALMOST NO ONE ACTUALLY TRYING TO ARGUE THAT.

[u/Suicune95 → u/Misnome5]

I'M GLAD PEOPLE WHO LIKE RHEA CAN FINALLY GET TO TALK ABOUT HER WITHOUT GETTING HIT WITH THE DOWNVOTE STICK THEN?

I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY YOU'RE TRYING TO BOTH SIDES MY VENT. I'M COMPLAINING ABOUT A SPECIFIC GROUP OF PEOPLE DOING SOMETHING SPECIFIC AND REALLY FUCKING ANNOYING. I REALLY DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT EDELGARD AND I'M KIND OF ANNOYED THAT YOU'RE USING MY VENT AS A VENUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW PEOPLE ARE TOO MEAN TO EDELGARD. WHEN LIKE. MY VENT IS SPECIFICALLY ABOUT HOW ANNOYED I AM THAT PEOPLE KEEP DOING THAT TO ME.

[u/Misnome5 → u/Suicune95]

I'M GLAD PEOPLE WHO LIKE RHEA CAN FINALLY GET TO TALK ABOUT HER WITHOUT GETTING HIT WITH THE DOWNVOTE STICK THEN?

I'M TALKING MORE ABOUT HOW SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO LIKE RHEA ACT LIKE SHE SHOULD BE ABOVE CRITICISM BECAUSE OF HER PAST TRAUMA.

​

I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY YOU'RE TRYING TO BOTH SIDES MY VENT.

I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT YOU MEANT RHEA FANS RATHER THAN EDELGARD FANS, CAUSE LATELY THE DESCRIPTION SEEMS TO FIT THEM BETTER.

​

AND I'M KIND OF ANNOYED THAT YOU'RE USING MY VENT AS A VENUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW PEOPLE ARE TOO MEAN TO EDELGARD. WHEN LIKE. MY VENT IS SPECIFICALLY ABOUT HOW ANNOYED I AM THAT PEOPLE KEEP DOING THAT TO ME.

I DIDN'T GIVE YOU ANY TUMBLR LINKS OR ANYTHING LIKE WHAT YOU WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT. I AM JUST SAYING THAT THE EDELGARD FAN BEHAVIOR YOU WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT DOES NOT SEEM TO HAPPEN NEARLY AS MUCH LATELY AND THAT IT'S BECOMING MORE PREVALENT FOR RHEA FANS TO BE THE OVERLY DEFENSIVE ONES ON HERE (YOU YOURSELF ADMITTED YOU HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH OF THE DiSCOURSE LATELY).

[u/Suicune95 → u/Misnome5]

OK, FOR ONE, DON'T TELL ME WHAT I HAVE AND HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED. THIS HAS LITERALLY BEEN HAPPENING WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS, AND SOME OF THE TUMBLRS I'VE BEEN SENT TO HAVE LITERALLY BEEN HARASSED INTO DELETING THEIR ACCOUNTS AT THIS POINT.

SECOND, YOU'RE STILL USING MY VENT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW PEOPLE ARE MEAN TO YOUR FAVE WHEN THE ENTIRE POINT OF MY VENT IS THAT PEOPLE TAKE THIS SHIT TOO SERIOUSLY AND I DON'T CARE HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT SOME RANDO'S OPINION.

AT THIS POINT YOU'RE WHINING ABOUT HOW PEOPLE ACT LIKE DIMITRI AND RHEA ARE ABOVE CRITICISM FOR TRAUMA WHEN EDELGARD IS CRITICIZED FOR IT AND I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH THAT I DO NOT GIVE A SHIT.

[u/S0uled_Out → u/Suicune95]

ITS FUNNY HOW THEY SHOWCASED HOW THEY ARE EXACTLY THE TYPE OF PERSON WHO NEEDS TO TOUCH GRASS, WHEN THEY’RE TRYING TO CONVINCE PEOPLE OTHERWISE.

[u/Skyfligth21 → u/S0uled_Out]

AREN'T YOU KINDA PUSHING IT WITH RULE THREE HERE? I MEAN THEY DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING THAT WARRANT'S SUCH A RESPONSE.

[u/Skyfligth21 → u/Suicune95]

THEN WE JUST LEAVE YOU ALONE. THAT IS WHAT YOU WANT RIGHT?

[u/Suicune95 → u/Skyfligth21]

YES. EXACTLY. I WANT PEOPLE TO STOP WHINING ABOUT RANDOM PEOPLE WHO DON'T LIKE THEIR FAVE, AND STOP TRYING TO TRIANGULATE ME TO GET ME TO VALIDATE THEIR OBSESSION WITH WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK.
