oh my gosh it's xinyi's hot takes im highkey very tired so idk if i'll make sense feel free to respectfully debate 1. if a kpop artist was that bad at singing or dancing + probably would have NEVER improved they would have never debuted in the first place 2. if you are under 13 you should never have major social medias even if you aren't that young 3. people are highkey way too comfortable on the internet saying whatever they want about anyone/ anything 4. i'm convinced this major spark in antitheism and hating on anyone religious IS influenced by people wanting to fit in with the trend 5. if you want to be a good person, you can't be agreeable to everyone 6. sometimes you can't be 100% kind; if a bully punches you in the face are you going to ignore it and tell them "love yourself because all actions you do are loving!!!" 7. so many indie artists are producing the same thing it's getting boring at this point; all the same laufey beabadoobee inspired music. this isn't bad but do NOT brand yourself as unique or industry changing 8. r*cism is WAY too normalised because why am i supposed to overlook a bunch of people complaining that the "chinese are going invade australia with their milk tea and this and that" (not an exaggeration) 9. when people address a group of people 99% of the time they are NOT talking about the entire community e.g. if a person calls out the white community for racism i BETTER not see someone say "but not all white people" because they are probably referring to the part of that community that oppressed them 10. i honestly think it would be valid for ningning to not feel comfortable around japan bc she's from the place where unit 731 happened; i also believe the same for many asian people too bc am i supposed to be happy at japanese history for k*lling off half my family and making the other half move to cambodia where they were later oppressed for being chinese 11. i don't believe taiwan is a country in a way ppl think it is; you don't colonise an island after losing a civil war and say "yay!!!! now that we have oppressed all the natives off a place i've never been to all because i lost a civil war, this place is MY country and we are the REAL china lol" (exaggeration) 12. people only care if it benefits them e.g. if a person with insane mental health struggles is slightly angry because of internal conflicts you're going to get angry at them and not try listen to their side 13. the idea that you can't be r*cist to white ppl is r*cist in itself (EVEN if you have been systemically oppressed by white people are you going to ignore that r*cism has done great harm to you and should never be perpetuated) 14. no, not everything is yuri and yoai just because you are lgbtq+ 15. stop pretending you are superior to everyone just because there's a literary crisis in the youth 16. harry potter wasn't good from the start in my opinion it feels like the generic fantasy novel about wizards and witches i've read as a kid 17. i do NOT care abt people taking inspo without permission i get lwk irritated when people ask because i don't see the problem (for me) because its honestly not that big of a deal if smth small e.g. a part of your style makes someone feel like "ooo i should try" 18. the people who value range in singing are genuinely so annoying they make me want to rip my hairs out bunch by bunch because clearly they do NOT know anything about singing 19. saying that every religion is a "c*lt" is dismissive of survivor's trauma around c*lts; someone saying "praise the Lord" or "Alhamdulillah" after something good happens then telling them that they are following a c*lt leader feels dismissive bc of ppl forced in a c*lt and seen the actual dark side of it rather than someone believing that there is an all-loving God 20. yes your thumbnails and banners [spop] do matter its basic marketing 21. not supporting isn't completely hating; if person A doesn't enjoy the company of person B it is okay as long as they don't feel or exhibit h*te 22. the idea that someone is 'revealing' clothes is s3xy is VERY weird 23. a women might wearing clothes that are non-revealing because it makes her confident so as one that wheres revealing clothes. however a different women wearing non-revealing clothes because she has been forced to, so as one that wears revealing clothes so that the men like her. revealing or non-revealing clothes can be both a source of empowerment and oppression---not just one of them 24. some young writers can NOT write for the life of them and it is okay but what is not is to get angry at ppl who try to help them improve 25. hate is criticism but not all criticism is hate; learn the difference between criticism and hate 26. spop isn't that welcoming of a comm. yes i do feel a sense of community but as soon as someone popular spawns i see ppl ignore others js to interact with the popular person.
