Welcome, thanks for joining 🤗

I remember this (bold). That's when i started posting right around the Goa separation track, username was Prettywitty. There were some heated debates about whether Kartik or Naira was more at fault but I don't ever remember it being like it is now.

It comes down to Abhimanyu. All other characters' criticism is tolerated. But any criticism of Abhimanyu is seen as an attack on the feelings of his fans or on HC. The JIJAJI threads were squarely meant to poke fun at the writers in a humorous way but then people started acting as though it was a slam on the lead couple or on HC's acting. It got really off-putting. That forum is now basically a fan club.

No one had that kind of blind devotion to Kaira or Mohsin Khan or Shivangi Joshi in S2 that I recall - I think that's why the discussions never got out of hand.

yes and we were kaira fans but we criticized them and were allowed to do so. But it looks like harshad chopda has a big fan following of very young people..because twittter is really bad..they are asking for steamy romance and scenes..I mean like really,..this is a family show on Indian television …how can you expect that 😂…and on Twitter you can’t criticize the lead couple ..you’ll get crucified 😂

Going to Eka's earlier post, I'll admit I'm GenZ too and at least for me, some 'woke' concepts are heavily ingrained in my upbringing. Recognizing and calling out toxic masculinity is really high on that list.

See, of course wokeness is basic expected decency for human beings. Especially for the privileged. And calling out toxic masculinity, racism, any kind of systemic, structural and institutionalised oppression that resulted in exclusion of a section of people needs to be tackled and countered at every point, no doubt. Someone in India, making fun of dark skin is something that has to be countered because it has casteist connotation and also it prevents a lot of people, especially women in participating in all aspects of society to the full extent. But whining about someone making fun of curly hair and spectacles and someone pointing out the toxicity of a stupid character on a badly written show affecting your mental health? Seriously? Yes, your feelings are hurt, but that is not trauma. That is just life. The world has 7 billion people, you can't expect everyone to like you, agree with you and not hurt your precious feelings. That is the only problem I have with Gen Z. 😅

Like I said there are exceptions in Gen Z. But most of it is performative wokeness is what I felt. The two college going girls in White Lotus is the perfect example of it, especially Olivia.

Yeah its fangirling in the extreme - and good grief, look at what they're showing in the name of romance by trying to please this fanbase🤢 Just show them hug or rub noses or whatever they had Kaira do - those are still normal gestures of affection. But the ladder bump and grind was so yuck... how does a person explain THAT to any kids that are watching I dont know😆

Twitter... everytime I think about making an account I get a reality check from somewhere or the other about why I'm better off now. I just go look at threads on politics or health or whatever without an account... the fandoms on there seems really nuts.
