In my undergrad thesis many many years ago, I included lurkers (folks who don't interact much, not even to leave a comment at times, but read fic or look at fanart, watch edits/fanvids, etc.) because fandom has long seen lurkers as key members of the community.
Lurkers were never seen as bad, they were just doing community quietly.
In fandom, you give what you can give and your participation or role is never something that is set in stone. You can be a lurker one day and organizing a Christmas challenge the next. You can be less active today and more in the future. And so on.
Do not let people make you believe that you have to be productive and/or visible all of the time to be seen as a "real fan".
But also, do not forget that when you're part of a community, you're not alone, and giving people small kindnesses, like liking a post or even just sending up a positive emoji when you see something you've enjoyed is part of maintaining a healthy, happy community. It does make a difference.
(That said, please don't shake people down for positive interactions. We're all humans trying to find joy on a planet in a polycrisis.)
Remember: You love the thing, you show it in your own way, and belong to a community. Do all that and treat people kindly, and that's all you need to be a fan. Do not lose the fun and whimsy!

a lot of ppl undermine how much US politics affect our country. our government is preparing to welcome trump for the asean summit, and his presence only reinforces their growing imperial hold over our nation. whatever happens in the US has a ripple effect on the rest of the world

a group’s relationship with their staff and crew says a lot about them. positive word will definitely get around, making more people in the industry want to work with them. kpop may seem like a massive industry from the outside, but it’s actually a relatively small one. dancers, for instance, work with various artists, so it’s great to see that svt has built and maintained such healthy relationships with them
but an artist’s fandom can also influence how they’re perceived by the general public. having every interaction they have outside the group met with so much hate could easily scare off potential collaborators or, worse, make people within the industry hesitant to work with them altogether
seventeen has received plenty of positive feedback from people within and outside the industry, from their juniors and seniors to staff, dancers, and other industry professionals they’ve worked with. but sure, let’s isolate them and expect them to interact only within their own little circle
Thank you to the haters and to carats who supported the baseless hate directed at Seventeen's dancers and staffs this past few days. You made it!
The difference was really noticeable during the JxJ concert. They used to be so playful and comfortable with each other, but this time, even their interactions seemed restricted. Even they just smile a bit and looked forced.
You can call me dramatic or say I'm exaggerating, but if you've watched Seventeen concerts often enough, I'm pretty sure you can feel the difference compared to JxJ concert.
The real seventeen's haters is carat itself. Why you didn't just ignore the hate train towards seventeen and their staffs when it's clearly the set up hate.

the dancer discourse is honestly just funny to me bc every single complaint i have read about the dancers and how svt treat them just boils down to parasocialism and jealousy. like that’s deadass all there is to it
