THIS.

THIS.

Literally THIS is the reason why I don’t like to browse through fanart and other paw patrol fanfics most of the time. I’m scared of people portraying literal children like…that. Eugh.

Also the argument about them “just being fictional” is just plain stupid and invalid. Like, it doesn’t matter if they’re fictional or not; they’re still portrayed as kids in their respectful piece of media.

Like, I remember a time I naively looked at paw patrol fan art like 2-3 years ago and found this anime style Ryder. I would’ve given it a pass and maybe complimented it for how well detailed and cool the art looked, but I looked at it ONCE and thought “holy crap, why does it look like he’s giving the fourth wall bedroom eyes?”

Now, before I potentially vomit all over the place from remembering this reprehensible side of the fandom, thank u for bringing this problem up. I’m sure it means a lot to the paw patrol fans of tumblr :D (even if posts of paw patrol don’t get much attention, it still means a lot.)

tiktok paw patrol fans are CRAZY. WDYM “RYDER’S SO FINE?” HE’S TEN. YOU EITHER ARENT OLD ENOUGH TO BE ON THE INTERNET OR YOU NEED TO GO SEE A PROFESSIONAL. YOU CAN LIKE, AGE HIM UP IF YOU REALLY WANT TO YOU KNOW? STOP SAYING A TEN YEAR OLD IS HOT.
