My Opinion On The Situation

My opinion on the situation

Since everyone else is making their opinion on Dream’s q-bait address known, I thought I’d dip my toes in this shit filled pool.

I know I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. The reason why some of us question our favorite cc’s sexual orientation is because we’re looking for more ways to relate and connect with him. Of course, there are a large amount of assholes looking to fetishize it, because this is the internet.

But after his address, it was made clear that Dream doesn’t give a shit about labels. He’s just Dream. He’s just Clay. He doesn’t let labels define him and I think that’s admirable. Of course, as a queer person, it’d be great to have my favorite cc be a member of the LGBT+ because I look up to him and I just want to identify with him more. But ultimately, it doesn’t matter what I want. He doesn’t owe us a label, he doesn’t owe us a romantic relationship with George, SapNap, or anyone, and he doesn’t have to fulfill our fantasies or expectations.

Do I think Dream is straight? No. Do I think he’s queer? No. Dream is just his own person.

The people that accuse him of queer-baiting are just as bad as the shippers that fetishize gay man. They force labels onto people and treat them like some kind of fucking spectacle. It’s gross.

I’m glad Dream is comfortable with himself enough to actually show affection towards his friends. I’m glad that he’s normalizing saying “I love you.” to your guy friends. He was never queer-baiting, he was just making jokes and loving his friends.

In summery, don’t force labels onto people, don’t fetishize gay men, and don’t make an ass of yourself.

Millennials, let’s be the generation that ends the “bitterly criticize the youth” cycle. When we’re old, let’s embrace and nurture them and commend them for facing challenges we might have created.

if i had a nickel for every time that the dm giving bizly's character a super dangerous item swiftly ended in a disaster for charlie's character, i'd have two nickels. which isn't a lot, but it's weird and HORRIBLE that it happened TWICE.

PSA: Don’t Smoke, Kids! I Actually Almost Did Not Include The Flashback With Future Donnie For A

PSA: Don’t smoke, kids! I actually almost did not include the flashback with Future Donnie for a number or reasons, but decided I wanted to give a little look into my interpretation of his character. Also I like drawing his eyebrows. More of my thoughts after the link.

You know, we all consider Dream the “villain” of the first Smp war, but like..i’m not really sure about that one?

Everyone is always like “Dream was the villain of the first war cause he was fighting against freedom” but…was he…really? Like? He told Wilbur he couldn’t start a drug cartel. L'manburg was not founded on morally righteous principals. I’m very much in favor of L'manburg now, because, well, it’s changed over time. The main principals behind it, what it means to the people who fought for it…it isn’t just a way to give themselves permission to start a drug cartel anymore, it means more now. That’s why in this current war i’m completely with Tommy. However last time? Idk how Dream was the villain when Wilbur deadass just started a whole war so he could make drugs.

Dream was just like “No you can’t start a drug cartel on my smp???” and they were like “We’re declaring independence so we can start a drug cartel on our new smp, haha, loopholes!” and Dream was just like “???????? You can’t??? Just claim part of my land???? And ban me from entering??? So you can make drugs?????” AND SOMEHOW DREAM WAS DEEMED THE BAD GUY HERE?

Like imagine someone’s staying in your house and starts a meth lab in your basement, and you tell them they can’t start a meth lab in your house because what the fuck? So they…kick you out of your basement and continue cooking meth because “well it’s our house now, isn’t it?”
