No one is using Jacob Anderson RT that tweet to say he tried to shade anyone else but AMC

It’s wild how every time fans dare to mention the blatant disparity in how Jacob Anderson is treated compared to his co-star, the conversation is immediately derailed. ''He loves Sam!'' ''He said it’s Sam’s season!'' ''He wouldn’t retweet something if it was shade!''

Jacob was the lead of this show for two seasons.He was the narrator, the emotional core, the face of the adaptation’s bold reimagining. And yet, now that season 3 is Lestat-centric, Jacob is suddenly missing from all planned press appearances. Just like he was conveniently minimized by this fandom during seasons 1 and 2.

So when Jacob who famously ''isn’t on Twitter'' accidentally retweets a post calling that out, of course it hits a nerve.Because he sees it.And the fans who’ve been defending him from day one? We see it too.

But instead of acknowledging the very real issue of how black actors are discarded the moment they’re no longer ''useful,'' Some of you twist it into a melodrama,''Stop making Jacob vs. Sam a thing!'' ''Jacob wouldn’t giggle at you shading his friend!''

This isn’t about their friendship.

This is about the industry, about AMC who is notorious for their treatment of their actors of color.This is also about a fandom that pretends to love Louis, Armand, Claudia but refuses to stand by their actor ms when it matters.This is about the fact that Jacob Anderson is once again being sidelined by a network that used him to launch their franchise and is now erasing him from the narrative ,just like Louis is constantly erased from his own story.

You know what’s even more telling?The fact that you can’t tell the difference between fans criticizing racism in the Industry and someone attacking your favorite white actor. speaks volumes.

Anyway, I made my peace with this fandom.
