frankly i think the best thing anybody can do is be as offline as possible so props to connor π

yeah that's fair too! i do think speaking out against the racism is important but again if somebody isnt active online... im not holding that against them
LIKE?? can ppl leave him alone π im all for wanting them to speak up but this also just ties into the belief the internet is everything... it's not
ppl being on connor's ass abt not reposting the statement when mind u he barely uses ig π like he's Actually the cast member who is most chronically offline
One snippet of hateful comments to my casting
Lots more love than hate over trans representation but there are still some very vile perpespectives within the community, especially from gay men, that we need to combat and hold people accountable for.
Harrison Browne also reposted and added his own thoughts to the post π©΅
TW for transphobic comments
i still have issues with how this was handled but if it was hudson's decision then that's his choice and i respect that!! at least many of them are sharing the statement it's honestly more than i thought we'd get
ok im gonna kind of let everything go for now especially knowing it was francois' idea which i appreciate β€οΈβπ©Ή im also glad hudson said he doesnt scroll comments and doesnt see much of the hate
It was Francoisβ idea and I helped write it! I donβt scroll comments so I did not see the hate. I was vibing watching figure skating highlights.
Hudson commented on a fans post on threads β¨
βDon't call yourself a fan if you share racist/ homophobic/biphobic/misogynistic/ageist/ ableist/parasocial/bigoted comments of any kind None of us need your hateful "love" We all respect and support and love each other and are on the same side if you can't accept that gtfoh plz don't make a show that's about love be hateful online. So much love was poured into this project and we all genuinely have so much respect for everyone involved in making this.β We're not characters and neither are our real friends, partners, family and making up false narratives about us isn't "love". So much good has come from this show so let's keep that going!! Share the love, the art, the dance parties, the friends made, the positivity!! -K.D.K

the fact that he has to defend HIMSELF from the relentless bigotry and racism being thrown at him breaks my heart. some days itβs coming from outside the fandom, others from certain subgroups of the fandom, and others from actual βprofessionalβ publications.
hudson you have a fan in me for lifeee
AGREED ruby is literally one of my fav albums from last year
same that whole outfit is sooo good
and tbh it's my love for most of the cast & crew that makes me want more from them bc i know they're good ppl
i literally saw asian fans nearly in tears on twt after seeing what ppl were calling hudson in the replies to francois' comment so frankly i do not care if im being Negative... this issue goes beyond just hudson
also im sorry if i come across as a hater i dont hate anybody in the hr cast & crew but i will not stop speaking up for hudson and my disappointment in regards to the silence of the cast & crew, especially seeing how hurt many poc feel as fans
it's all just so disappointing :((
ok at least francois shared it too!! tho i do think they should've given their own statements instead of copy & pasting the same one bc it feels less genuine but still a step in the right direction!!
yup... it's so disappointing
hudson being the first and only one to speak out directly is so bittersweet... he should not have been the first/only to say anything but also this proves how good of a person he is, we truly stan the right person :((

it rly is, especially as a newcomer to the industry i cant imagine how it feels... i hope once s2 has rolled around a lot of these ppl will have moved on but even then it's unfortunate bc they'll probably only move on once they've found a new target
i feel so sick whyyy πππ
we had a gas station that had a little sushi restaurant attached to it and it's literally the best sushi i've ever had, they got so popular they've moved into their own building now π
not "drama" rly, just the racist hate being thrown hudson's way is getting out of hand - even on that comment francois left on hudson's post had replies using asian slurs ppl didnt even Know existed bc they are so old & out of use, ppl have been asking the cast & crew to speak up for a while
this is crazy like hudson rly has every poc in hollywood in his corner bc they see and understand what he's going through... im telling u the cast & crew is only gonna be able to get away with being silent for so long
THEY FINALLY SHIPPED IT ππβ€οΈβπ©Ή
