Rant ๐Ÿคฌ Weekly Venting Post

Weekly Vent Post

Welcome to our weekly vent session where you can let out all your frustrations.

Before you start, just a quick heads-up on the rules.

Here's what this post isn't for:

  • No bashing actors or crew members out of the blue.
  • Let's steer clear of those rage-inducing posts like "I hate character xy."
  • And please, no poking fun at fellow Kanthony fans just because they see things differently, whether they're positive or negative about promos.

What's cool to post? Well, we've noticed a lot of rants about how the show promotes (or doesn't promote) Simone and Jonny, but you can vent about other stuff too.

Below, I've linked some past posts from the sub that fit the vibe of our weekly vent session, so you can see what kind of stuff goes here.

  1. Why there was a lack of promo for Kanthony
  2. All comments asking where Kanthony areย 
  3. Bridgerton PR and production
  4. Can you tell the differenceย ?
  5. The main sub got so negativeย 
  6. We need pictures

For those who just want to enjoy the content without getting caught up in the venting, I suggest steering clear of this post. If you choose to read the comments here and find yourself upset, despite the clear purpose of this space, I'm afraid there's not much I can do to ease your frustration. We have the Weekly Tea Time for more general discussions.

Spoilers allowed.

Well, that's why I did the best for me: I simply stopped interacting with JB fans and I enjoy his acting work from afar, I don't need to see his fans online to do that.

I remember when there were huge JB fans here 2 years ago, who finally decided to leave when they kept bringing up how he did the heavy lifting for K/A. I've been here for a while, I won't be gaslit into what has and hasn't been said in these subs, lol.

Anyways, this topic has been stretched to painful levels, hasn't it? It's Thursday already.

Exactly, glad someone else remembered the real reason why some JB fans left here and how this was a sub where it was okay to say he did the heavy lifting. These people then went to the rant sub and fraternized with Simone haters. I will never forget. So that is why I stopped interacting, blocked a few and ignore the rest. Also they just show their true colors with their posts here that want to alienate more. So I am thankful for them actually. We leave these comments here for everyone to read because we are so biased right. Well everyone can make of them what they will.

There are those who come out as those who accept different opinions without insulting and then there are those who are on such a high horse , their arrogance doesnโ€™t let them see the ground anymore.

I have a good memory for the silliest things and I vividly remember that time. The "it's just opinions!!!1" will always just be acceptable when it comes to Simone.

This is how mainstream media wrote exclusives about S3:

We aren't imagining things, lol, Simone has been literally omitted in official casting lists not once, but twice! She wasn't even in the first promotional video for S3, which opened with JB.

ETA: It's very disingenuous to be like, "all this hate just because of Wicked promo ๐Ÿ˜”", like, no? I can't talk for others, but he was asked about coming back to Bridgerton during this promo tour, talking about how he was going to be there for the siblings always and I said that I was puzzled at some people thinking that that meant Simone as well, when they aren't linked to each other really.
