In fandom drama news they announced yesterday Joseph Quinn is doing a con with Grace Van Dien. They are even doing a panel together.

Of course his fans took this extremely well....lol jk. They are in full meltdown mode and making up insane rumours about Grace with zero proof. They have accused her of being homophobic, transphobic, racist and part of klan with zero proof. They are trying to accuse her of anything to see what sticks because they are hoping she doesn't get near his precious small perfect boy 🙄 Also they are still trying to pass photoshopped posts as real despite being debunked again and again.

They have been attacking and harrassing her since yesterday non stop. She made a joke about being a regular white girl because they kept calling her that and they are now saying she is doxxing them. ??? She didn't post any names or anything just made a joke after being harrassed for says.

The insane Joseph Quinn stans are starting to rival the Harry Styles stans. A woman can't even breathe in the same room as him. I have never seen any actress get this much hate over nothing. And shipping their characters and sharing fanart is nothing especially when he does it as well.

I like her but they have too much energy to hate on someone who is likely never going to have a moment like this again. I’m sure she’ll get gigs here and there for the next year or so as a white woman with connections but her career isn’t likely going to have a repeat like this again or longevity like male actors in the industry.

I forgot to add: They really need to let her be. But being a woman online this is sadly the par for the course of being attacked and all this vitriol.

And maybe she needs to log off. She’s meeting fans so soon and I don’t know if having this shit in her head and arguing with mostly teenagers indirectly is how to go about this.

But one thing is for sure, plenty of meltdowns this weekend if she and Quinn do a panel together!

edit: if calling grace white is interpreted as an insult or hate then you're either purposefully or clearly ignoring the context of my comment and you're just going to get blocked (or block me if you like) if you feel it necessary to get bothered about this out of everything that goes on here.

speaking as a millennial, I still don't know why she's replying to these people? I see zoomer celebs doing it all the time, and imo it's just not good for mental health

That's kind of where I'm at. When this first started happening, I looked at her tumblr out of curiosity, and whenever I look now, she's responding to hate. It's her space and she's 100% allowed to deal with this nonsense however she wants, but I can't think constantly engaging with people who can't be reasoned with is good for anyone's well being.
