You know, when we found out Tary was a sheltered trust fund baby with no concept of how money and not having any works, he was everyone’s precious shiny sparkly son in a matter of two weeks.
I saw some people criticizing him over lording his wealth over the player character most obviously affected by spending most of her time in poverty, but it was never a big thing somehow. Instead, said player character was always called a greedy bitch for haggling down prices and caring about loot and amassing wealth, none of which she ever spent for herself until the year break (and even then Percy had to talk her into it).
And yet somehow, Caleb mentions he grew up in poverty once, and everyone’s ready to jump on his working class hero down with the burgeoise’s dick immediately and shame Jester for lashing out when she was upset. Stay classy, fandom. Stay fucking classy.
Told you the Critical Role fandom is a hateful fucking cancer upon the internet. Like, taken as a whole, CR fans are almost worse than WWE smarks.
The entire reason I write these posts at all is because the fandom is small. Too small to really be anything compared to the gigantic mega fandoms out there that are truly cancerous and full of exclusively awful people, with everyone firmly entrenched in their own little niche for one particular character or pairing or headcanon. Where no one uses the main tag for anything because everything is inflammatory for someone.
Compared to my days in the trenches of that, this is tame.
