#like bro you're absolutely free to dislike it but chrissy is canonically a senior

[skania]

I have briefly ventured into the Stranger Things fandom and I’m both sad and not surprised to see it’s the same as any other big fandom nowadays. People trying to villainize perfectly unproblematic ships because they don’t align with their shipping agenda, all while grasping at straws to prove why their completely fanon-only ship is the gospel truth.

When did people start to forget that:

a) you’re free to dislike a ship simply because you dislike it. you can have your NOTP with your whole chest without needing to jump through hoops to try and turn an unproblematic ship into a problematic one.

b) you don’t need a ship to be canon to ship it. you can ship it simply because you liked their chemistry together, their potential. hell, you don’t even need characters to interact to ship them.

#tv: stranger things #fandom: stranger things #unbelievable #the stuff I've read about chrissy and eddie #it's absolutely ridiculous #they're literally a trope as old as time and people are trying to turn chrissy into a child to justify their hatred for it #like bro you're absolutely free to dislike it but chrissy is canonically a senior #you don't need to come up with stuff you know #why would anyone judge you for disliking a ship I don't understand #and people pretending the actors and writers don't ship eddie with chrissy #when joseph quinn literally just said eddie had a crush on her #at the end of the day all that is happening is that some people prefer m/m over f/m #and that is 100% valid #but again #both can peacefully coexist #fandom is supposed to be fun idgi #meanwhile I'm here shipping edissy and enjoying st*ddie and the fandom won't let me do it in peace lmao
