I Don't Remember Who Exactly Said This, But Someone On Tumblr Once Wrote Something Along The Lines Of

i don't remember who exactly said this, but someone on tumblr once wrote something along the lines of a lot of charmies don't actually like timothée, they just tolerate him because he's an avatar through which they can experience and be close to armie and it kinda blew my mind.

idrc if anyone likes a particular person or not, but it's very interesting how tim gets criticised for the most random, inconsequential shit (he flew on a plane! he had sex with a woman!) and armie can do something as small as show up wandering the streets of LA looking like a confused leather handbag with hedgehog hair and they're like ... shitting screaming crying cumming and writing elaborate headcanons on the nature of love and sexual orientation and perseverance in the face of hardship

it is genuinely fascinating to watch. why armie hammer? i get that taste is subjective, but why would someone's taste run so strongly to a shitty, predatory medium talent like him?

there are also strong elements of misogyny and homophobia in that sector of the fandom but i don't have the brainspace to get into that just yet

\\\imagine believing tim has done anthing compared to armie\\\

That's because at this point Charmies = Armie stans. Look at their posts, they regularly bring up Cabo to drag Timmy, they bash him for pap walks etc while they shield Armie from the smallest criticism and blame absolutely everything Armie does on everyone around him but himself. The Timmy fans who shipped Charmie at some point all left the ship because no one in their right mind would want someone they like with a pathetic loser like Armie.

I mean they think Timmy is the lucky one because he gets to be with Armie lmao. They're just Armie fangirls that begrudge Timmy's successful life lbr, why do you think they never like him to be out and about with his friends, colleagues or anyone that isn't their cannibal king. They treat him like Armie's bitch, when if anyone is the bitch in that equation it's broke pariah Armie.
