#a lot of the c!niki praise reads to me as if they just don't want to exclude the women of the dream smp which tbh is fine

god im so glad i found ur blog, i have never met anyone who was c!niki critical n i really thought i was just being a dick. but now i see that other people feel the same about her character, so im relieved. i really wish she was written better bc cc!niki is really nice and has the potential to be a good actor...but i just cant stand c!niki.

yeah no, it's really depressing tho bc if you look through crit tags for her character its literally just me lmao

there are a bunch of c!niki critics i know there are lmao it's just that she has such a supportive and ferocious fanbase that it feels almost intimidating to criticise her without getting any sort of hate bc everyone just views her with the most uncritical eye? it's so stupid, people are publically critical of most characters without feeling intimidated (and i'm not saying we start an uprising of people that don't like her character or sum shit, i purposely don't talk about her as much bc i'd rather talk abt things that i do enjoy about dsmp) and i think people should feel like they're more allowed to talk critically or negatively about c!niki without fear of c!niki apologists shooting them down or attacking them bc i've actually talked to c!niki critics who are afraid to post negative stuff about her character because of her really defensive fanbase

#the give niki a gun movement was the worst thing to happen istg- #esclapoaskbox #i don't want to bring it in bc i might be pulling at dead strings here but #a lot of the c!niki praise reads to me as if they just don't want to exclude the women of the dream smp which tbh is fine #it's just that at some point it's just praise for being a female and there's no actuall nuance or criticism there and it's not misogynistic #to dislike her character at all bc if that was the case i wouldn't be a fan of c!puffy and i wouldn't enjoy hearing about c!hannah's lore #(sidenote i can never catch hannah's streams bc of timezones and its so annoying lmao so i have to pick up her lore from my dash) #a lot of it is just 'sHe'S gIrLbOsSinG' and it's like no. #her character is genuinely an awful person and her malice towards those she's shown it to is completely unwarranted and unjustified #and those she shows kindness to have proven time and time again that they don't deserve it considering they destroyed her home and murdered #her friends without remorse and it's like ????? #i can't defend that or even begin to want to dissect that NOT SORRY #c!niki is flat - boring - unjustified - not that well acted imo (controversial i know) - and overall just a dumbass #literally l'manberg were her only friends and she turned on them for what? hm? they literally never wronged you and you betrayed them lmao
