Anw, this was my take on this whole situation. Btw my bias is OBVIOUSLY mr. WWH SEOKJIN. Jungkook and Jimin are probably the closest to my heart after him but i genuinely love all seven of them as a group and as individuals. I will continue to support them, love them and defend them from unnecessary hate.
          
          Keep in mind that supporting some1 and holding them accountable are not mutually exclusive. I can do both and i think that’s what real love should look like.
          

I also absolutely do NOT condone harassment, threats, bullying or any kind of hate directed at them. That is not accountability. That is cruelty, and i don’t support it coming from any1. But you know what i genuinely believe would make a lot of fans feel better, especially those who are hurt or disappointed by this situation? Seeing them acknowledge it and take accountability.
          
          I don’t need them to be perfect. I don’t need a perfectly scripted apology. I just want honesty.
          And no, if they don’t do that im not suddenly gonna stop loving them. I’ve loved them for 13 years. That kind of love doesn’t disappear overnight. But would it leave a scar on my heart? Absolutely. Cs sometimes loving sum1 means being honest enough to tell them when you think they were wrong instead of defending them no matter what.

If i didn’t love BTS this much, maybe i wouldn’t care this deeply. But i do. I’ve loved them since I was 9(im 22 now). I literally grew up with these men. I was happy when they were happy, sad when they were sad, worried about them even when they seemed completely fine. There were times i genuinely wondered if they were hiding how they felt just so ARMY wouldn’t worry about them. I was there when the fandom was much smaller both internationally and nationally. I watched them go thru so much pressure, criticism and hate, and i defended them thru all of it. I still will.
          
          However, loving sum1 doesn’t mean blindly defending everything they do. I hold myself accountable when i do something wrong. I hold the ppl close to me accountable too. So why would loving BTS mean i suddenly stop having that standard for them? They made a mistake. No1 is perfect. And acknowledging that does NOT mean i hate them, that im no longer ARMY, or that i suddenly think everything they’ve ever done is bad.
          

I just wanna address the BTS situation cs i deactivated all of my socials. I still have tiktok, but honestly, i don’t feel comfortable sharing my opinion there. Im posting this here cs i genuinely feel like a lot of ppl here have been ARMY for a long time, and as an ARMY of 13 years, im honestly really disappointed. And i think that disappointment comes from how much i love these men. I have never loved artists the way I love BTS and Ariana Grande. These guys mean an insane amount to me, and i genuinely love them to the point where i’d give up a kidney for them so please understand that this is not coming from a place of hatred or suddenly “turning against” them.
          
          The issue for me isn’t simply Chris Brown’s songs. Im not gonna be a hypocrite and pretend i’ve never liked any of his music. His songs are catchy. There’s actually one song, (Angel Numbers) that i genuinely love because it reminds me of so many things, and yes,I still listen to it sometimes. But what i personally don’t do is encourage other ppl to listen to his music or actively promote it. Why? Cs within myself ik that continuing to consume and promote sum1’s work can contribute to benefiting that person and im not comfortable with that. Im not saying every1 has to make the exact same choice i do. Im explaining the standard i personally try to hold myself to.
          And that’s why the BTS situation hurts me so much+ Let’s not forget that BTS has a huge influence on ppl (they’re public figures).
