Understanding is the new black

Hey kids, you know what's never a good look? Telling people they're wrong to feel their feels about their fandoms and canons. Take it from me, it's never fashionable--I'm a reformed "let me tell you why you're wrong to like/hate the thing" person.

Lecturing/hectoring/side-eyeing/being annoyed by people for how they feel doesn't work, for one thing, and it just makes you look like an asshat. Calling them names is even uglier.

What IS fashionable is having compassion for people who feel gutted by the thing they loved changing or losing someone important, or happiness for the people who loved it and have something new they're excited about.

Let people feel their feels. Then move on.
