My thing with most BTS stans is their strange disdain for other Kpop groups and idols. They were just online the other day making fun of other Kpop groups for their COMPANIES submitting their work to the Grammys. It made no sense to me. They want folks to respect BTS and scream xenophobia whenever they think BTS is getting hate but are so awful to other Kpop groups? From my experience many of them are so racist and ignorant but hide behind stanning BTS.
It’s actually Kpop fans who have a disdain for BTS, even in other forums or reddit, it seems like they just can’t handle that the group everyone thought was cool to shit on since 2014 is now the most popular, most acclaimed and respected korean group of all time and best selling korean artist of all time.
Dont wanna clog the thread so I put this in spoiler

If you don’t know the history of why BTS fans don’t fuck with other Kpop groups it’s best not to even bring it up! The things that BTS themselves had to go through because of them and other korean celebrities and korean media (like real legal cases) and dragging them for being whitewash, western validation, even because they released an English song and everything else under the sun, how they literally will side with racist and nationalist even though their fans are literally the same race.
They’ve rallied to get BTS to lose the bbmas and other fan voted awards. They’ve sent articles and false narratives to black blogs like the shaderoom. They’re sick in the head.
Just now with the BTS vs China issue (which has been resolved) they were cheering the fact that possibly China blocked their albums not realizing China already has a hallyu/kpop ban and that they will probably block other groups as well the difference only 18% of their sales come from China were othe groups its 70%+.
Its childish but most most of the time BTS fans dragging comes from a place of pettiness from what other fans or even celebrities or public figures have done or said.
and now that BTS is the most popular Kpop act and has set a precedent of international success, it’s not surprising that their fans eat them up and their companies the same success and formula with little to no demand.
It also doesn’t help that most BTS fans aren’t Kpop fans at all so they don’t care about other groups in general. And yes there is a sector of BTS fans that are just simply trash and racist too.[/spoiler]
I really hope Chloe x Halle can get in AOTY, they deserve. If not them.. then Summer Walker. We note R&B girls in the GF
