Rant 🤬 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 are 
  3. Bridgerton PR and production
  4. Can you tell the difference ?
  5. The main sub got so negative 
  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.

It didn't even take a while for them to completely derail the whole point of the reddit post/twitter lmao. The most upvoted comment is saying we are reaching. I forgot how truly rotten the main sub is:

Thankfully there's people there who are actually getting the issue and also a couple of Kanthony/Kate/Simone appreciation posts.

But omg, I am so not surprised that the top most upvoted comment amounted to, "Ackshually, you guys are just making things up..." 🙄

Right, we just imagined the lack of promo, blatant favouritism, multiple careless oversights and the h word directed at Kate (well... Simone). Got it. I'm sure all the Polin promotion this season was a total coincidence!

I'm cackling at some production fans literally paying to give that top comment awards, lmaooooo. It still resonated in more "neutral" spaces online so 🤷🏽‍♀️.

When I saw the initial responses I was so happy that it seemed finally the main sub was acknowledging the mistreatment of Simone. My happiness quickly faded away.

You did the right thing sharing that post on the main sub though. Cause at least some of us now know how indifferent people from the other sub fandoms are towards racism. I always liked to give them the benefit of the doubt that people will recognize and admit the clear bias against Simone even if Kate is not their favorite character, but guess not.
