Tragedy Was Meant To Humble Us And Have Compassion For The Unfortunate

Tragedy was meant to humble us and have compassion for the unfortunate

Not make us feel like holier-than-thou martyrs and prophets while putting down everyone else as peon reprobates

Liking tragic things doesn’t magically make you morally and intellectually superior to others, nor do you get to shove everyone who disagree with you into approved alternatives because you think that’s the end-all-be-all.

If you gotta get nasty, passive aggressive, and condescending to those who didn’t like it and judge, shame, and gaslight them, that says more about you as a person than it does about those who disagree with you.

And it makes people skeptical of your reasoning for liking tragedy.

Thanks to @zimgrizz I can’t help but feel Alice and P are just passionate lovers in private

Sure Alice is more low key compared her affectionate steampunk cyborg boyfriend in public, but as Alice and P/Carlo or who I call “Pietro” gain a better understanding of love, P absolutely starts leaving hickeys on Alice’s neck

And of course Lorenzini has to be a dick and teases about it when he notices said hickeys on Alice’s neck

It bugs me how many chicks and dudes in Hunter duty in Remnant show off their midriffs. I get that RWBY is supposed to have sexy characters, as many anime characters and superheroes, but I feel like there's a point where I'm like "Okay, common man."

Like, that's where your vital organs are fam. There's a reason why you lie on your stomach during a bear attack.

Also Emerald sweetheart, I know you like to be sexy(probably for Mercury lol) but not only is showing off your tummy dangerous when in company of man-eating monsters, but your flaunting it in the frigid north.

There's plenty of fashionable winter jackets that can show off your curves without showing off some skin.

They think it’s “hopepunk" because they say so.

Literary Intellectuals have become so arrogant in their judgement that they think they can just say things and make something true, untrue, or something else.



“The truth, is what I make it.”

RWBY Stan: You don't like the dark turn in RWBY V3 nor Pyrrha and Arkos being tragic among the other tragic things because your not ultimately hopeful while being aware of the horrors of reality like I am. You need to go outside and touch grass and go watch sitcoms instead.

Me:(lost two people in high school in the same year, one in a car accident) Or you can do that and not judge me and try to force me into a neat little box.

The Steps of being a RWBY Stan

Engaging with a dissident of RWBY wanting your words to come out of their mouths

Gloss over or outright ignore the dissidents thoughts and feelings and the reasons for their satisfaction and dissatisfaction

Reduce their arguments to whatever component makes them sound stupid, especially feelings, and label their arguments accordingly without elaborating

Tell dissidents to consume alternative you approve of, even if it doesn't have what they're looking for

Imply these people are not entitled to anything nor allowed to have a personal anything, and expect them to surrender every aspect of their autonomy to you, the "experts”

If they take matters into their own hands with either fanfiction or original works that recycles ideas and concepts, passive aggressively or patronizingly imply they're ultimately nothing and contribute nothing and these dissidents have no good reason for what makes them happy

Tell others to "curate" their consumption of media and interaction online, but never practice what you preach yourself, because you supposedly know better and need to correct and educate everyone
