Not related to the video since I can't watch atm but I remember the toxic side of gg stan twitter throwing homophobic slurs at him a while ago just because he didn't name any girl groups he liked and I get angry thinking about it.

Conversion therapy sounds so ridiculous I keep forgetting it's actually a thing.

right that was such a mess... their excuse was that they're gay men as well so it's okay but even if you don't like holland/his music what he's doing is still super brave and commendable and hurling slurs at one of the only openly gay entertainers in SK is just really nasty and for such a petty reason too

Aw, he seems really protective of his fans.

I liked the part when they said they don't need to worry about trying to change hateful people because hatred is violence.

I'm glad that his parents and other family members are accepting of him :')
the conversion therapy story is really horrifying

He's so cute. I'm glad his parents are supportive.

I have some friends here in London who were sent to conversion therapy by their (religious) schools do unfortunately I've heard those kind of stories before, but it's still absolutely horrifying to me.

I love how immediately after he says "I guess we should respect the haters," he just groans with regret lol. His friend is right, hatred is violence, there's no need to show respect for violence.
