Hot Take, Since I'm On A Roll.

Hot take, since I'm on a roll.

If you're more concerned with cancelling Ateez then educating them and KQ

Or

If you're more concerned with them being 'cancelled' than blacktiny voices right now-

Congrats! You're both part of the problem!

Jumping to cancel someone when it comes to cultural appropriation instead of getting through to the companies/idols/stylists literally gets us nowhere. People will never learn why the fuck they're doing wrong if you yell at them and tell them they're wrong and dont tell them why or how. No one is obligated to pull out a history book every time shit like this happens, and as a black kpop fan, I'm just as tired as the next person that this shit keeps happening, especially a month removed from all the companies claiming they care about us and shit, but understand pulling the cancel card instantly isnt the way to go and we can get through to some companies when it comes to this issue.

On the other hand, yall babying Ateez and KQ and going "uwu no! Dont be mad! They didnt know!" Is just as fucking whack. Stop talking over blacktiny. You being more concerned with the small handful of Atiny "cancelling" Ateez (because lets be real, the majority of us aren't cancelling shit. We're emailing KQ and expressing disappointment and calling for education and change before this shit drops) or Antis (which why are yall listening to Antis more than Atiny? The mfs were trying to get BigHit to sue KQ over the fact that Ateez has a storyline for their mvs like three days ago, tf u listening to them for?) "cancelling" Ateez over listening and understanding why people are angry and how tired poc kpop fans are at this shit happening over and over and over again is hmmm 🤔🤨

People are allowed to make mistakes, absolutely. We learn and grow from them. But rushing to make it so people CAN'T learn or grow from their mistakes is just as bad as sweeping it under the rug and pretending people can't do any wrong. Cut it the fuck out.
