okay seriously can i touch on that one topic again? bandom totally shuts out people who don’t fit the norm when it comes to what’s considered attractive as far as the mainstream of the community is concerned
like we’ve got a bunch of white people who want to claim to be supportive and concern themselves with social justice but when it comes to something as superficial as reblogging selfies or supporting POC band members they tend to stick to spreading the standards based off of of skinny white(-passing) conventionally attractive bandom kids and singers and it’s created such a sense of homogeneity in the community?
any criticisms you’re going to see on here regarding bandom in the mainstream is going to most likely include its various racial factors, at least most predominantly. wonder why? because bandom only cares enough to idolize skinny eurocentric standards of beauty. and it shuns POC, fat, unconventionally attractive people from the community. and it’s repulsive
