they say that nobody hates a fandom more than ex fans and i think theres truth in there

rrrrrrrgh i just hate bbc sherlock so much it's disgusting racist sexist homophobic queerbaiting trash wrapped up in scenery porn and contrived plot twists for ~drama~ with no emotional follow through

like seriously

- london is one of the most ethnically diverse cities on earth and like 99% of the cast is white bread mayo

- except for the asian gangsters or waifish doll-like asian girl yay fetishisation

- like really

- anderson is portrayed as a bitch just bcos she doesnt immediately fall over and kiss the ass of the asshole protag who abuses witnesses for faster results and is a dick to everyone around him

- sherlock's entirely unnecessary comments on her sex life

- the lesbian falls for the man ofc, grossssss

- DO I NEED TO EVEN MENTION THE QUEERBAITING HOLY SHIT

- like moffat and crew never have any intention of making the characters canonically queer so stop using your fanbase and then mocking them for shipping the two characters

- seriously, you knowingly put in things to tease queer fans already desperate for representation and then laugh it off like 'oh no but they couldn't actually be gay!!! that would be ridiculous hahahah!' like thank you. thank you that a whole group of marginalised people's identities is a joke to you. thanks

- what!! the fuck!!! was the first ep of s3!!! FANS SPENT THE TWO YEAR HIATUS COMING UP WITH AMAZING THEORIES THAT YOU COULD NEVER HAVE THOUGHT UP, MOFFAT, AND THAT IS WHY YOU DIDNT EVEN SHOW HOW SHERLOCK SURVIVED THE FALL, BECAUSE YOU LITERALLY HAD NO FUCKING CLUE AND IT WAS ALL FOR DRAMA. once you look past the shock value there is nothing there. a writer doesn't get to conveniently avoid the questions, that's not how writing works, your writing needs internal consistency or it's bullshit.

- also!!!! sherlock and john's relationship is so fucking abusive and yet it's supposed to be played off as funny. he makes john think he's going to die just so that john will accept his apology and then LAUGHS at how terrified he was holy shit i just


this show is an irredeemable mess, i could just go on and on but i'm tired and fucking mad.
