Not every villain, not every time, and certainly not to everyone at once, but there should be moments. We should, occasionally, be able to see ourselves in the bad guys, be able to understand how they got there.
Because it reminds us not to fucking go there.
Antis who get upset about villains having relatable qualities (often couched as being “romanticized” or “woobified”) are people who cannot bear to ever think of themselves as having the capability of being wrong.
Every human alive is capable of being a horrible person. Relatable villains remind us to keep an eye on that shit.
I have some bad news for you. Snapchat is not safe. Recently, they have given users the ability to create their own filters, and some of those users too advantage of that. They implanted viruses into the code of the filter, activated when the user opens the filter. These viruses can get into your phone and steal everything on it, giving it to the user. The user then takes that information and blackmails the user for various things. These things range from extortion to full on rape. Just deciding to not use the filters does not work. If someone uses a filter you don’t have, Snapchat automatically downloads the filter to show the picture to you. Just opening that picture will download the virus onto your phone, compromising your system.
I personally know two people who have been targeted by these types of people, and the toll it takes is massive. So, for the love of God, GET RID OF SNAPCHAT. GET IT OFF YOUR PHONE. Once that is done, tell all your friends about this. Get this message everywhere. This is important. I do not want to hear about anybody else being targeted by these people.
Tl;dr: read the damn thing.
If this doesn’t scare you, consider this: they also have the numbers of every person in your contact list. Every person who you know is also compromised.
I am genuinely proud of each and every single person who reblogged this to spread the word. You all deserve all the kindness sent forth towards you!!! Everyone who didn’t reblog this: I’m not upset. I didn’t believe this for a while either. But, I assure you that it is a thing, and it terrifies me in a way that rarely happens.
Just. Don’t even. I know this had to come from the community because otherwise hardly anybody else would have seen it.
The community is a safe space. How many times am I going to have to explain this.
The community for any kind of fans should always be a safe space. Because it’s full of people who enjoy that certain thing. It should not be people getting hated on.
“And yet you said ‘two’ automatically. Almost as if by reflex. Almost as if you’d been answering the same way your whole life. You see, echoes of the old timeline are still there. ”
