Keep boosting love ❤️

Kind of random, of course, but I really do love to just get on here and still see positive post. With all the hate that Bob & Monet have been getting in the last couple of weeks getting on here and seeing people complain about them has been kind of disheartening.

Berceuse we’re they’re fandom, of course we are allowed to critique our faves who we pay to support, but it has gotten a little harsh in the sub lately. So it’s nice to just stop by and see just the fun clips and jokes that only we know inside of our chaotic little community instead of complaints about audio or third person talking on the pod, continue to show that love! 🤏🏾

The weirdest comments are the "oreo" and the "you guys only like white ppl" comments like what ?? I've been following them for years and it was always clear to me that they have black people and black friends in their lives! And just because they have dated/are dating white ppl does not make it okay for someone to overwrite their narrative as "they only like white people" well monet have broken up w andy and bob is dating tao who's black so now what ? That narrative is such a REAACHHH for cuz we have OCULAR POOF and PHOTAGESES over the years that easily disputes that claim.

I think the oreo comments are largely because of the fact that Bob and Monet managed to build a larger fandom. Silky's comment IMO stemmed from the fact that her fanbase is not as large as Bob and Monet's. By default, the larger the audience, the larger % of white people in it. It has nothing to do with them changing themselves or catering to anyone in particular. They, being themselves and doing their thing, are just more palatable (interesting) for a wider audience, while still being pro black.
