Have People Lost Their Minds?!?
There is nothing worse than a bully. First of all, they’re cowards because they prey on others and try to make others’ lives miserable, yet they never show their fucking faces. They just like to create a ton of chaos and then walk away, whistling – like nothing has occurred. And second of all, they operate off their own insecurities, the core in which the spirit of the bully lives. Without this, they are meek and weak and exposed.
If I were the one who had so much to prove that I would devote my free time to my causes of bringing down other peoples’ happiness and hard work, I’d want everyone to know about it. I’d be singing it loud and proud on twitter, on live journal, on my own blog. A place of origin where you could find me, always. Gee, what does this remind me of…something here is very familiar…
A beloved site, RPLife, was taken down in our fandom yesterday, and someone is to blame. Some little plotting group of wanna-be bullies. I wish I could say that this is all these bitches are, but they are in fact Internet Terrorists. Quietly plotting, gathering info, seeing where they can throw some ammo and hope they find a weak spot so the blast will leave a hole. You know what I want to refer to with my descriptions. You know where I’m going with this when I call them Internet Terrorists. And all of this was done in the name of what? Responsible journalism? Protecting private property? Puhleeze! Is it either of those things when you spread false information or manipulate photos? When you try to make a LIE out of the truth?
In response, I can write up a little blog post like this and think lots of people will read it and get angry with me, and get on twitter and be outraged. It’s already happening as I type. But honestly, it doesn’t matter. And I’m glad. B/c there is a bigger justice in this word, and it’s called karma. Ain’t nobody escaping that bitch.
AMEN, Chonga!! I’m mostly a lurker, don’t often post because so often everything I want to say has already been said, but I am so upset about RP Life being halted because of a bunch of haters….if you are truly a fan of Rob then you are a fan of whatever makes him happy, especially regarding his personal life….in this age of faceless, anonymous posting, it’s so easy to be hateful and vindictive and incur no consequences to yourself, but it is also cowardly and weak–haters, if you can’t be objective and adult about your opinions, and spread respect and support instead of spewing venom and hatred, then stay OFF the sites that are dedicated to respecting Rob and/or Kristen. It’s a simple choice–why keep going somewhere where you are neither wanted nor needed?? I know it will never happen, cause nonstens/haters are nothing if not persistent, but we TRUE fans outnumber them, and we know the truth–that Robsten exists, that they are happy individually but most importantly that they make each other happy, and they are amazing actors with the whole world in front of them. I hope Mandy may reconsider after a few days and decide to keep posting…but if not, I am so glad there are a few sites that are dedicated to sane, respectful support of these two awesome individuals…I come here and to Robstenation every day, because there is no drama tolerated on either site, and both are entertaining and positive—keep up the great work!!
*Standing Ovation* I know that it takes alot to piss YOU off, bb! But this was certainly a situation worthy of your rant! Fucking bully bitches gotta ruin shit for everybody! Why can’t they just live & let live, like we do with them? Because they are jealous, bitter, ugly hags that have no life & have to shit on everyone else’s to make themselves feel better. Ugh! This post was so necessary! Thanks for writing it. <3
*clap* *clap* Well stated Chonga!!! I was really bothered about the news regarding RPLife yesterday. I am so upset about the lack of respect in this fandom. I don’t understand the haters mentality at all…maybe that’s because I’m not a hater…but i just dont get it. If you are that opposed to other peoples beliefs as a fandom, why devote hours and hours of your “precious” time reading and analyzing sites that discuss the subject that the mere mention of has you writhing in pain??? LEAVE IT ALONE…and MOVE ON!!! So what you hate the idea of it, so what you dont believe…SO WHAT!! Get a fucking life and go play on your own fucking site, and leave us alone!
What kills me the most is these people call themselves fans..HA! If you love something or someone as much as you claim to, you dont spend hours of your day tearing down and hating a person they choose to be with and love. *shakes head*
Then to attack a site because you don’t like that they support that very person that you are supposedly a fan of. I dont even have words for that! (well apparently I do…since this post is long..lol)
This is the last I want to even speak of these haters. I am happy I have surrounded myself with the sane side of the fandom. And as you said Chonga, Karma is a bitch…and there is no escaping that! <3 ya RLC
**clapping as well** Karma…so true. The older I get, the more examples I see and the more I believe. I was really sorry to see what the hate did yesterday. It shouldn’t be what this fandom is about. Thank you for making this post…couldn’t agree more.
This is yet another topic where I have no clue what happened, but I do like your approach. Far too many times, intimidation comes into play and once someone is wrongfully done, they just keep quiet about it. There are tons of haters out there. They dont know how to do anything but hate. It has nothing to do with the actual topic because really….haters will find a way to be negative about anything in some shape or form. I pity those people because they dont have anything remotely close to making themselves feel whole and that is quite sad. This was a great post. It is always nice to see people taking a stand and stating their views. I hope everything works out and yes you are definitely right about karma…..it is a dangerous thing to mess with.
Very well said. It is so frustrating to see that group of bullies get away with their mean-girl actions over and over again. I will never understand why someone would devote all of their time to destroying other people and the things they enjoy. They must be truly miserable human beings if their only means of happiness is to try to destroy the happiness of others. But I don’t believe their tactics of fear and intimidation will work. And I totally agree with you about karma – I just hope it works sooner than later.
A-Freakin-men! I am livid my favortie ff authors have been attacked and was locked and loaded to go hunting, but then I realized…why bother…because why would I waste my time and energy engaging in battle with the likes of “them”? No the best revenge is to complete ignore their antics and they will go away….and we will all go out for drinks to celebrate!
Well said.
The crazy thing is these “fans” of Rob’s are actually hurting him. I was a Kristen fan first and RPLife was the only R fansite I have ever felt comfortable visiting.
Now the bit of R news I will get is from here or none at all. Sad.
Very well said, Chonga! It’s really sad and shameful that this is happening! I am truly missing RPLife now! *sobs*
I am so sorry that these evil self-serving sickos have succeeded in doing their black craft. Look what happened when the book Stephanie was writing for Midnight Sun was released by some idiot. We are all punished for the wrong doing of dumb asses.
When will these dickheads learn that bad deeds breed bad? They must be self-hating sadsacks.
Thanks for saying what most of us are thinking, Chonga! And thanks for all your hard work on this site. Please don’t ever let all the BS get to you cause we need/love this site.
*shaking head*…all this bullying is really starting to build up around our fandom now :/ …
it’s thanks to bullying that many other of my favorite fan sites,like Team Bewley international, havent left us.
i ment to say *have
It’s sad that so many sites are deciding to close down in the face of what can only be termed cyber-bullying. This is a fun hobby for most of us and when someone forcefully removes the fun part it becomes very tedious, very fast. I completely understand the site owners’ decisions to call it a day.
Personally, I tend to get irritated by people who engage in underhanded, holier than thou crap like reporting sites just to get them out of business. Unfortunately in this day and internet age you need a teflon suit as a blog/website/forum owner and a bit of pigheaded stubborness to stomp back at the haters.
First time to your blog…outstanding thoughts and I agree…it has turned into Cyber Terrorism. What a waste of humanity.
