Breaking the Cycle

I always questioned why "fans" would treat their idols any different when in reality; we're all the same. We're all here to make a living and to support ourselves. Why do we idolize those who have more of a power of authority when they're human as well.

It's always been frustrating to see people or "fans", for a better word, treat celebrities as if they are gods. They're human; they have flaws and they aren't perfect. Fans honestly make it seem as if they are inhumane when in fact they have feelings and emotions. They treat "celebrities" as if they are sex objects rather than as people.


Look at Chris Motionless, for example, or any person who has a higher power of authority. His "fans" have sought to stalk and harass him on multiple separate occasions; regardless if that meant hurting his relationship status or harassing him and his family. He has no privacy, can't be honest with the people who do support him or himself, and doesn't have the freedom to express how he feels (politically, etc) without being attacked, simply for the way he looks sometimes.


Because he is covered head to toe in tattoos, wears makeup on occasion, etc; people automatically assume that he is a "deceiving, heinous, satanist"; I mean come on you have to be kidding me. We all have preconceived judgments based on how we view people but why won't we change those views? Why can't we? What's so harmful about change? Don't we need change to evolve in this world?


"Fans" have made it seem as if everyone who supports him is the same way. I hate that label, I hate being termed a fan. I wish that we could break this cycle of labeling people as celebrities or as fans or as Satanists, etc because it shouldn't even be happening in the first place. Why do we even label ourselves or others?


I'm tired of being treated as if I'm an object; as if I am just a "money-grabber". I'm not here to buy my favorite musicians' attention or love (by getting merch, albums, etc). I'm here because his music speaks words that I can't say and it helps me express myself better.

I am Human. He is Human. We are all Human. I'd rather be seen as a human and fellow content creator rather than as something that I am not. But the same also goes for people who have that power of authority; they should treat their fans the same way that they want to be treated. Vice versa.


People who have that authority sometimes (or most of the time nowadays) only see the people who support them as objects. It frustrates me when they, as in musicians, artists, etc say "Oh I'll never date a fan" or "Oh I'm much better than you because I have this, this, and this". Honey, you are no different than any of us just because of your status. It makes you an egotistical, arrogant, self-centered asshole if you flaunt what you have to others just because of who you are (That goes for everyone regardless of who you are). You are no better than me or anyone else.


Secondly, if you categorize your so-called "fans" to the category of a "fan"; of course, you aren't going to want to date them; and that's on only seeing one fan as all. They see their fans as all the same; we are NOT all the same. If you obsess over your idol and scare them to the point where they don't trust you; of course, "fans" are going to be stereotyped as the same person. It's unfair and makes it seem as if none of us are equal. You can date who you want to date; even if that means going for someone who is in the field of entertainment. Manifest it and it will happen when you least expect it. Expect the unexpected.


I want to be treated equally and for who I am; not for the way I look or stand out; not for speaking my opinions, etc. I want to be treated as a human. But unfortunately that's not reality. Remember; we are all blood; we all share the same skin; we are all family regardless. Love is Love. Let's break this cycle and treat everyone the way we want to be treated. We will evolve and make way for better lives.
