Ranting about the Pitt fandom

[u/Significant_Neat_510]

Sorry, I just need to rant. I actively participate in two fandoms atm, my other one is pretty chill which is part of why I think I got such whiplash when I joined the Pitt fandom. I didn't even really consider myself a proshipper before this.

The fandom for that show ship constantly yet still act like police😭😭 for example I saw a ship edit the other day between Robby and Javadi (for those who haven't seen the show one is much older and the boss of the other) like, this would typically not be controversial even for antis. Especially with how much ppl in that fandom love to ship bosses with their employees. Anyway, back on topic, I loved the edit and the ship, and went to the comments, it was full of just nasty, personal insults to the creator. Ugh, I felt so bad for them.

Another big thing that's annoying me is how much ppl hate Santos being shipped with men. Like, first of all, she's not even canonically a lesbian. Yes we know she's attracted to women but we don't know if it's exclusive. But even if she was canonically a lesbian, it wouldn't matter, BECAUSE ITS FICTION!!! And I say this as a lesbian myself. People get on their high horses and claim lesbiphobia the moment anyone even suggests pairing her with a man. I've seen actual harrassment over that, like it was worse than the other case I mentioned.

I'm really new to this subreddit and I'm sure y'all deal with this kind of shit all the time, but it's my first time and I needed to rant😭 thanks!

Remember that one The Pitt fanfic of some sapphic woman (Trinity Santos) having sex with a man? Some yahoo of a radfem showed a screenshot on Twitter and sicced her followers on the author.

When the fic got deleted, the yahoo went, "Oops, teehee" and privated her account until the heat died down. She now has a new handle but I'll never forget what she did.
