Alright yall lol. (warning: anger, stupid, stupid fandom bs)
So I see we're back to talking about toxic shipping and 'policing' and shit. Because I know what y'all are indirectly referencing, I want you to consider this: empathy.
"Toxic shipping discourse in Hetalia is really pointless actually." I agree. There is no way you are arguing someone out of their favorite ship, it's nonsensical-- however, someone asking for more sensitivity in a fucking fanbase is not the same as saying a ship is toxic and that you shouldn't ship it.
"You cannot have morals while shipping countries." I disagree. There is absolutely a right and wrong way to fuck with this content-- for example, Nazism/Fascism, racism, and colonization romanticization are things you shouldn't feel comfortable with these personifications participating in. If you do fuck with it, you are definitely a worse person than a person who ships GerIta casually.
There is a big difference between enjoying personified countries beating the shit outta each other and drinking each other's blood versus depicting them enjoying putting minority-based personifications under agonizing situations. This is just an example.
Asking you to be more understanding when someone brings up their trauma attached to your favorite characters is something that shouldn't be seen as policing. Still, I see many people getting angry and making a strawman out of their words to collect brownie points.
YES, I am talking about the RusAme fandom. You don't have to agree with someone's point, even regarding their personal experiences, but what you can do is be fucking respectful. Morals have nothing to do with simply fucking respecting somebody, especially when they're coming to you hurt!
Enjoy your stupid fucking ship, no one gives a fuck, just be fucking understanding when minorities come to y'all with concerns!

Interesting to me how the original and prevailing logic of hetalia universe works building yadda yadda is dependent on the ignoring of or complete erasure of indigenous nations and peoples …. And once you put in indigenous nations into the basic framework as seen in canon or used in fanon broadly the logic of it all immediately falls apart
russia, america, and tchaikovsky are greatly intertwined. get this-- piano concerto no. 1 (the same composition that would later be played at the tchaikovsky piano competition in 1958 by van cliburn) would first debut in BOSTON.
I imagine they were both in attendance for the debut and it greatly impacted them. not only because it's tchaikovsky, but because they were secretly courting.
this could explain why they reacted so passionately to van cliburn at the moscow observatory.
rusame fiends... I have just found out that tchaikovsky performed at the inauguration of carnegie hall in 1891
Hetalia's Bizarre Adventure: World Stars
Stand Name- 「American Idiot」
Stand Master: Alfred F. Jones
This version of Alfred is heavily inspired but the amazing art of @pinkflipphonez ! Please check them out they make some of the best hetalia content on this site.

Read more for more info on the stand
「American Idiot」 has the ability to allow Alfred to use any medium displaying an advertisement, be that TV, Billboards, flyers etc, and to us it as a portal of sorts and essentially travel through them. Its secondary ability allows it to trap people inside advertisements but only if the advertisement displays something that the person would be interested in buying. The TV on American Idiot's head flashes between various logos and exclamations. It's a very expressive stand, and used them to communicate with Alfred.
I hope you like it! As always if you have any song/singer/album reference suggestions for any of the other nations feel free to send me a message!
Next character in line: India!
there are so many nyotalia women to draw and not enough time
