@HugeThompson's comment on 'RWBY obsessed r/curatedtumblr user spends dozens of comments defending derailing a serious post about how society treats victims of trauma to complain about people being mean to their favorite anime characters'

https://old.reddit.com/r/CuratedTumblr/comments/17dzkt3/people_cannot_understand_when_trauma_victims_act?sort=controversial

people cannot understand when trauma victims act traumatized especially in a way that is unpalatable to them because it involves lashing out and unpredictable moods and having boundary issues rather than just being demure, sad, and consumable. Bonus if the trauma victim is a woman

Me when I see someone starting a thread by talking about a very serious real life issue, without any mentions of fiction or fandom culture, presumably looking to spark discussion, so I take a look to see what insightful additions people have made to it, I'm immediatelly faced with the picture of a blorbo, and the thread proceeds to decay into just being used as an excuse for fandom people to complain about opinions other fandom people have.

OP is RWBY Discourse Georg, just ignore them

I checked and they're right, /u/ClaireDacloush posts ~30 times a day, mostly about RWBY. I read a post they made on /r/gamingcirclejerk and all the comments were like "Ugh, anothert barely disgusied RWBY post, give it a break already". They also made a bunch of posts about how they're being stalked by so meone who hates RWBY

>post discussing a very real problem with society's perception and treatment of trauma victims

>some frickass anime character

A female character with trauma issues who people hate on for reacting in a natural way to trauma.

because she's no longer ****able in their eyes.

Edit: the hatred people heap onto shows with female LGBT protagonists like Korra and RWBY is amazing!
Maybe I need to make one with Korra!

While some people are misogynistic about it, its also just not a very good show. Two things can exist

My hero academia is not a good show, AND it is misogynistic.

RWBY treats women as protagonists and without misogyny or fanservice.

When I see people say "it is not a very good show"

they're always whining about white male villains, a straight white dude who they're trying to make the protagonist over 4 gay women....

or a straight ship that was dumped over a gay ship.

so why should I entertain mass stupidity?

The thread continues from there but it's too long to quote in its entirety

OH MY FRICKING GOD WHY IS THE RWBY PERSON STILL HERE?

Sir/Madam?
If you don't like me?
You can block.
Since you're NOT blocking me?
That basically means you enjoy having me around.
So stop complaining, and start being nice.

Pro tip, if anyone ever brings up RWBY just respond that you don't watch it because it looks ugly. They're guaranteed to leave you alone and not go into an neurodivergent fit afterwards.

It just looks so fricking bad, genuinely can't believe they thought releasing it was a good idea, and I'm even more baffled that someone's actually consuming this gutter oil "animation"

I just assume that it was poor quality because it was an amateur studio when it first came out. If it never improved since then, then lmao.

The original webshit had an interesting thing where to cut down on costs basically anyone who wasn't a PC was just a silhouette. Stylistically it worked really well, and there was potential to use that as an actual narrative point the way mimics in D&D work.

Instead as soon as they got more budget they spent some of it on replacing it with terrible CGI NPCs instead of the fights that were the only reason people actually watched it.
