The Reaction To Harry Winning A Grammy Literally Just Proves That People Hate Him Because He's Harry

The reaction to Harry winning a Grammy literally just proves that people hate him because he's Harry Styles. Its the whole 'resent what's popular' thing in real-time. Beyoncé still made history. She still won, just not that category, and she's still now a literal record-holding POC female artist and you're still not happy because a queer white boy who's ~mainstream~ won something.

Heckling him while he's on stage at an award's ceremony and making him feel guilty for the fact that he's a talented artist who rightfully won an award (because him being friends with someone in charge means literally nothing, Harry's lost out on awards before regardless) is honestly just childish and frankly embarrassing.

I'm not a fan of certain artists. I don't have a good opinion of others. But you don't see me trashing their hard work and their efforts and any well-earned rewards. Beyoncé literally did not "lose out" on anything. She wasn't snubbed from anything. She put her album up for consideration and lost. That's it. If she had been snubbed she wouldn't have attended or been up for anything in the first place.

I've been in a lot of fandoms, but I'll be honest there's never been a more spiteful, hateful, judgemental fandom than 9-1-1 for content creators.

And I'm not talking about the rightful attention brought to works that were, quite blatantly, plain ignorance or outright racism.

There's a literal poll going around at the moment trashing certain tropes and the comments/tags are horrific. Let people live. Let people write. Fanfiction should be freeing and fun and it doesn't have to be a direct reflection of canon. The haughty policing of 9-1-1 fanfiction has gotten to the point where the only fanfiction being produced is the same flat, bland, regurgitated styles, concepts and characterisations over and over again.

The limitations authors are being bullied to subscribe to or be publicly blasted and harassed online over are the death of fandom creativity. Its the first and only fandom I've been in there the actual fans themselves have been the reason I've left the fandom.

(Like literally one poll option is that a character is depicted as gay, not bisexual. I think that about sums up the mentality of the fandom.)

Information and action are the parents of change.

You cannot fight what you do not know. This is why the sharing of accurate, blatant information is so important. This is the true value of freedom of speech. This is why we fight for unblocked social media platforms and independent press and for our private conversations to be protected.

You can't act if you don't have the information. How can you challenge something you don't even know about? How can you fight for the correct side, the correct outcome, if you don't understand it and know what, exactly, you have to fight for and whom you should be fighting?

You need information in order to take action. And you need information and action in order to make a change.

Harry Styles is a very good example of how a lot of you don't actually think its okay for LGBT+ people to not be neon-sign out and that men can't be feminine without absolutely having to be some form of queer.

You'll scream about how men can wear nail-polish without being gay and in the same breath you'll be pressuring a traumatised man to out himself because you think he shouldn't allowed to be feminine without confirming he's either gender-queer or sexuality-queer.

"But he's baiting people!"

He's literally just existing. He's living his life the way he wants to after he spent a decade being micro-controlled to the point that its permanently damaged his mental health, his relationship with himself and his identity and his relationship with the public as a famous person.

He doesn't owe you his sexuality. He just doesn't. Nobody, famous or otherwise, does. Not a single person in the world owes you that knowledge. Not your mother, not your dog, not your celebrity crush or the dude who serves your coffee.

Not a fucking soul.

He's just another example of how the queer community has come to make demands and shove tick-boxes at people and I physically can't express to you all how much of a backwards slide that is.

Edit: Since I received a very angry response to this, I should clarify; I mean this in context of regardless of Harry's identity. This post is not implying or stating he is queer or is not queer. The entire basis of this post is presenting the fact that the moment Harry Styles started expressing himself in a certain way, the general public and in large part the queer community immediately began accusing him of being queer and demanding a public confirmation. And that in many cases the arguments 'for' him being queer are based on how he expresses himself, which goes against the supposed support of freedom of expression and non-toxic masculinity that the queer community is supposed to have. To summarize: QC: Men can be feminine without being gay! Harry Styles: *presents himself effeminately without publicly confirming any sexuality or gender identity* QC: He's obviously gay! He's feminine! He should come out or stop dressing like that! Men in feminine clothing are baiting! He's probably trans!

Please also refer to the angry anon I received the other day for another example.

I mean Harry does say homophobic things and gets excused because people think hes part of the community.

It's cool of he doesnt want to claim us but he should maybe chill it on the 'ambiguous" answers he gives in every interview, block the question like most celebs do. And also stop talking about us

An excellent way to prove the entire point of my post, thank you, anon.

Re; "not claiming us." We're not a cult. The LGBT+ community isn't regimental. People can choose to live ambiguously, in the closet or as out and proud as they please. Someone choosing to be ambiguous or to remain closeted does not devalue their identity or mean they're against the community. People who are ambiguous or closeted are still as much LGBT+ as people who are out, and are still as deserving of their identities as anyone else. We also need to bear in mind that Harry grew up under the strict management of a company known for being extremely controlling, manipulative and bigoted.

He's been harassed, called a faggot, speculated about, demeaned, ridiculed, sexually harassed, touted as a womanising sex symbol, stalked and physically attacked.

If he wants to maintain his privacy and not declare a label, he had every right to do so. I reiterate; every single person has the right to not proclaim their identity.

Secondly. I can promise you if Harry started blocking questions you'd immediately start branding him as homophobic or accusing him of once again baiting the general public by wearing dresses but refusing to tell anyone why. Its a no-win situation for him, as it has been for many, many other celebrities. He doesn't have to answer those questions and as and when he chooses to, he can answer them in any way he chooses. He's earned that freedom. After years of having what he says controlled, edited and manipulated, he's earned the right to answer questions on his own terms, with his own words.

"And also stop talking about us." Again, refer to the above point. Within weeks you'd been trashing him saying he's another ignorant Hollywood bigot that refuses to acknowledge the LGBT+ community. There's no middle ground.

no because i just remembered a few extra things that make the teen wolf m*vie even more of a pathetic exercise in clownery:

allison staying Alive and getting back together w/ scott means that they’re doing a dan/serena in s3 of gossip girl (in that they are dating. while their parents are ALSO dating. ew. gross. what the fuckkkkk)

the age gap between malia and parrish is JUST as gross as when they tried to make lydia and parrish a thing in s5 and it’s disgusting and i hate parrish on the basis that he is an empty husk of a character who’s always Just There and Shirtless Whilst On Fire

speaking of, derek dies by setting himself on fire. FIRE. the same thing that killed HIS FUCKING FAMILY????? and he sets himself on fire in front of his own son which he would never do because he went through the same thing when he watched his family die???? 🥴 huh?????

isaac took the box that contained the nogitsune in it w/ him to like france or whatever. so how the fuck do liam and discount!kira have it with them in JAPAN????? 

the logistics of derek having a 15 yr old child is so ridiculously dumb like they didn’t even TRY with that it makes no sense and the only person who could be the mother is fucking kate argent (derek’s literal rapist) and i hate that so much

stiles would never leave the jeep behind. the jeep is the only thing he has left of his mother. why would he leave it in beacon hills and then never return to beacon hills. lmao.

in the s3 finale, the pack defeats the nogitsune with a WOLF BITE. because he “can’t be a fox and a wolf” (direct quote!). so how the fuck does the nogitsune come back and turn into a *squints* FOX WOLF HYBRID is this even real-

lydia said that her grandmother had banshee premonitions of her own gf dying, and even though she tried to prevent it, her gf died anyway. so how can lydia be 100% sure that if she breaks up with stiles, he still won’t die????? lmao

how are derek and scott both true alphas if there’s only 1 in like a 1000 years or whatever the fuck i forgot but. it’s still stupid

there’s probably more but yeah this is what happens when you can’t just leave well enough alone. let things end. not every piece of media needs a reboot revival requel sequel spinoff whatever. just let things go instead of sacrificing your fans and creativity for a soulless cash grab 🫥
