dingdongyouarewrong:dingdongyouarewrong:dingdongyouarewrong:PLEASE tell me what you think the word ‘trope’ means. in your own words. what do you think a trope is. PLEASE tell me. pl well you see a trope means it’s a popular tag on ao3. it only exists in fanfiction! :) that’s famously why you never hear about people analyzing popular tropes in classical literature or across the works of shakespeare :) the only tropes are things like ‘fake dating’ and ‘enemies to lovers’ and if a person is talking about a trope it means they’re talking about fanfiction like really the ironic thing is that these are the people complaining about Internet Poisoned Fandom People, but by exclusively associating a word meaning ‘literary convention’ with fandom and fanfiction and ao3, they themselves are the ones revealing they know very little about literary analysis and can only think about these terms through the lens of fanfiction. my siblings in christ you are the Internet Poisoned Fandom People -- source link
