Shit ass writing indeed way to many plot holes
Still holding onto #conformitygate its the only theory that can fix everything

hey, if conformitygate isn't real tomorrow I am letting everyone know this right now.
PUT. THIS. IN. YOUR. POCKET.
This idea is GENIUS, and I know how many ao3 authors are like mid-late teens-early adults, but this idea is genuinely amazing and could be a REAL thing in a piece of film/media that one of you guys make in the near future. Because now you know how to write a good series. Don't let anything stop you, we know how that went (cough cough volume 2)
This is your sign (whether conformitygate/9th episode is real or not) to take inspiration FROM conformitygate. Like I said, this idea Is genius. Like- I cant even explain how crazy it is. Think about it, gaslighting EVERYBODY the finale came out? it premiered in THEATRES. Then, BOOM. REAL FINALE, YOU'RE IN A FAKE REALITY. WAKE UP. Do you guys understand how smart that is? not just in an intellectual and compelling narrative way, but in a marketing way as well.
make it happen!! make a fake finale!!! make that slow-burn queer romance!! make everything YOU wish you saw in media when you needed it most!!
mike was just a self-insert. what the duffers meant by "a show for outcasts" they meant awkward white guys with nerdy interests who couldn't talk to women. it was no wonder that the only girl mike had a chance with was a girl who was so closed off from society that she didn't know what she wanted. there was no way they were going to give mike a gay romance with will because they're straight incel men. that's part of why mike had no real personality. they needed to project onto him.
the duffers calling bylers just "noise" that they have to tune out ----> bylers on twitter coming up with a theory based on the massive amounts of plot holes and conformity messaging in the finale that has become so large there are multiple news articles being written about its evidence and everybody's talking abt it online.
proud of us..????
