That’s something of an understatement. Sometimes I wonder why folks of that stripe still consider themselves Homestuck fans when they spend the vast majority of their online presence pontificating about all the myriad ways Homestuck sucks, the creators suck, et cetera et cetera, and I suspect that some of them are just in it for the drama or else are afflicted with a spirit of schadenfreude that makes them want to root for seeing official content crash and burn (to what end, who can say).
The fact that there were those who were all too ready to whip out the metaphorical torches and pitchforks (I saw a post advocating for the boycotting of the Homestuck patreon) speaks volumes to me.
And will we let the fire go out?
Is this the end for them now?
Sunken ship that has long gone down
Will we let the fire go.. out?
