Hello guys. I am the writer and narrator of this book. You don't need to know much about me, it won't be about me. However, to start off, here's a quick introduction:
I'm young and I'm in this fandom. My native language is not English, so I get help from language translators when writing articles. To be honest, I joined a little late and when I joined, I was a fan who didn't produce content. I both like and dislike this fandom and you can more or less guess the reasons why.
I find the Countryhumans fandom unique and I think it's nice to have works about countries that are a part of our lives. This is why it's a fandom I wouldn't leave even if I quit, that's why.
...
Where I live, we are raised to be patriots, we have a great connection to our country and we like to be interested in history, country and politics, whether it's good or bad. Personally, I am not very interested in politics but if you knew, you would see that these conversations exist in our society and that they are serious. Simply put, the public is directly interested in this issue, which is why there have been conflicts and ruptures in our history regarding this issue. The location name given to us is not definite anyway. Are we Asian, European or from Middle East? This is complicated. This diversity comes back to us as both positive and negative and this is evident in the fandom.
The above paragraph is entirely about what the society I grew up in was like. Personally, I am someone who likes to research and question a little more. I don't find a country bad or good actually. I'm only interested in what's happening and the reasons and results of events and this helps me get to know countries better, just like getting to know people. I mean, I love my country but I'm also aware that it has flaws and every country has flaws, just like people. Generally, by humanizing something, we also humanize countries in order to better understand and connect with it.
☆ In general, the classic reasons for rejection from this fandom are:
1. Racism
2. Dark humor
3. Ships
4. 18+
But when we look carefully, they are all things that are present in our lives. Sometimes people can be racist towards each other and even make bad jokes about other side' race. Having relationships and even do +18 things. As I said, if we are humanizing something, we have to accept that these things are inevitable. But we should not accept them directly.
