Ron and Ginny bashers are often Harmony shippers who are buttmad they get in the way of their ship. And they’re so annoying. Ginny bashers are often misogynistic while Ron bashers are often ableist in the ways they insult his intelligence, elitist for the ways they mock him for being poor, and obnoxious in the ways they mock him for his eating habits.

Ron and Ginny bashers are often Harmony shippers who are buttmad they get in the way of their ship.

Yep. Almost all of them are.

And they’re so annoying

I KNOW RIGHT??!!

Harmony shippers literally ruin everything, they try so hard to convince everyone that their ship is canon; often using Hermione noticing Harry grew taller in OoTP as some sort of “hint”. (Noticing a big change in your best friend’s physical appearance isn’t a big deal, it literally just means you have the power of sight.🤦‍♀️)

Ginny bashers are often misogynistic

Yeah. I honestly don’t care if people ship Harmony, I wouldn’t attack people for shipping fictional characters. But my problem with them is that they bash Ronald and Ginny, they claim that Ronald is abusive and they created the “Ginny cheats” trope in fanfics as a poor (and pathetic) attempt to make her look bad.

Ok, Ginny bashing in general is sorta understandable, she was extremely mean and unlikeable in HBP (no hate to her, I love her), but Harmony shippers take it way too far, they’re misogynistic and just plain disrespectful.

They desperately need to bash Ronald and Ginny. If Harry and Hermione do bad things, then pshhhh it’s completely fine! But if Ronald and Ginny do bad things, they’re toxic and abusive.

If Hermione cheats = omg Girl Power and Ronald is a toxic and emotionally abusive deserter.

If Ronald cheats = we were right about him, he's not worthy to clean Hermione’s shoes and bow down to her.

If Ginny cheats = she’s a total slut.

If Harry cheats = he deserved better and Ginny wasn’t paying enough attention.

The Double standards in this fandom. Sigh... 🤦‍♀️

while Ron bashers are often ableist in the ways they insult his intelligence,

I will never understandable people who hate Ronald. Like HOW? WHY WON WON? WHAT THE HECK DID THAT ANGEL EVER DO TO THEM? He’s literally perfect in every way.

I’ve seen people claim that he’s a dumbass who would be nothing if it weren’t for the almighty Hermione Granger. Ronald is just as smart—if not smarter—than Hermione.

elitist for the ways they mock him for being poor,

It’s honestly sickening. They straight up shame him and I’ve seen some call him a laughing stock. It’s genuinely appalling.

and obnoxious in the ways they mock him for his eating habits.

He isn’t even that obsessed. The idea that Ronald is hopelessly addicted to food mostly comes from the movies. (I’ve always found it odd how the filmmakers were so obsessed with his eating habits. I suppose it was another way to make him less like Ronald and more of a comedic relief.)

So what if the dude likes to eat? He’s a teenager and he has an entire fucking feast right in front of his very eyes, who tf wouldn’t be obsessed? (Boi, I’m literally drooling just thinking about the food they have at Hogwarts. Imagine how he must’ve felt actually being there.)

Ronald bashers are just- UGH. I literally have no words to describe them. I wanna punch each and every one of them in the face.

Harmony is not canon, and it never will be.

When will Harmony shippers get it through their thick skulls?

Ronald and Ginny deserve so much better! :(

He slipped instead of slide lol

 So after the many many posts mourning the passing of Stan Lee earlier today I’ve started seeing an inevitable wave of backlash about how he actually wasn’t a good person and we shouldn’t be mourning them. And these posts are par for the course when a celebrity dies because no one is all good or all bad, and that’s fine. And Stan Lee was human, he was a person with a complicated life and a complicated legacy, and I’m not here to whitewash any of that. However, I’d like to refute a couple of the points I’ve seen people making. 

The first is that Stan Lee sexually harassed nurses who were taking care of him. This story came from the Daily Mail, which is not a credible news source. The original story does not name any of the nurses who supposedly came forward with the story, or their employer, and the legitimacy of this story is pretty shaky. I’m not saying it categorically isn’t true, but I am saying that we should take stories from the newspaper that ran a headline about the discovery of the “gay gene” with a grain of salt.

The second is that Stan Lee was told that Andrew Garfield wanted to play Peter Parker as bisexual, and as retaliation forced Sony to only depict Peter Parker as straight and white. This isn’t quite true. There is a contract from 2011 that lists mandatory character traits for Spider-Man, and in that list is included that Spider-Man is “not a homosexual (unless Marvel has portrayed that alter ego as a homosexual).” Whether Stan Lee himself personally was involved in writing up this contract is pretty doubtful seeing as his role in the company was fairly limited by that point (and that’s not to mention the fact that in his later years he was being abused and manipulated by the people closest to him), but he did mention it in an interview with Newsarama. What he specifically said was, “I wouldn’t mind, if Peter Parker had originally been black, a Latino, an Indian or anything else, that he stay that way, but we originally made him white. I don’t see any reason to change that (…) I think the world has a place for gay superheroes, certainly, But again, I don’t see any reason to change the sexual proclivities of a character once they’ve already been established. I have no problem with creating new, homosexual superheroes (…) It has nothing to do with being anti-gay, or anti-black, or anti-Latino, or anything like that,” he said. “Latino characters should stay Latino. The Black Panther should certainly not be Swiss. I just see no reason to change that which has already been established when it’s so easy to add new characters. I say create new characters the way you want to. Hell, I’ll do it myself.” 

And while your mileage may vary on how much you agree with him there, it’s a far cry from him cruelly declaring Peter Parker having a boyfriend would be an affront before God and man and an insult to his authorial intent or whatever. Also, I think the original post that started this story was about Andrew Garfield saying something while doing press for Amazing Spiderman 2 and Stan Lee writing the contract as a result, but the contract is from 2011 and the first Amazing Spiderman came out in 2012, so the timeline doesn’t work. I could be misremembering the post though. There’s also this implied narrative that Andrew Garfield got axed for saying his Peter Parker was bi, but uh, no. No, they cancelled the franchise because Amazing Spiderman 2 bombed at the box office. 

Now, to wrap it up, was Stan Lee a good and perfect man? No. His legacy is very much a mixed bag, especially when it comes to his relationship with his long-time co-creator Jack Kirby (although that’s a whole other suitcase to unpack some other time). I would like to point out, however, that the posts praising him aren’t all just blindly hero-worshipping him and being willfully ignorant. When someone you admire dies it’s natural to forget about the bad parts of them for a bit and get a little misty eyed, and not everyone’s gonna be totally objective about this man that they never met but who represents something important to them. I think that speaks more to the way we interact with celebrity as a culture than it does about the way Marvel fans see Stan Lee frankly.  And hey, we gain nothing by pretending that Stan Lee wasn’t an important figure in comic book history, one who co-created the first black character in mainstream comics just two years after the Civil Rights Act was passed, who fought the Comic Code Authority censors to use comics to tackle heavy subject matter, who helped bring legitimacy to the art form and humanity to its characters. So as long as I’ve got you here I’m gonna leave you with his thoughts on racism in 1968, words that feel just as relevant today:

“Racism and bigotry are among the deadliest social ills plaguing the world today. But, unlike a team of costumed supervillains, they can’t be halted with a punch in the snoot or a zap from a ray gun. The only way to destroy them, is to expose them — to reveal from the insidious evil they really are.”

May his memory be a blessing.
