Ugh. What is it with people acting like nazi’s when it comes to their interests? Like why can’t you enjoy something and be aware of its flaws? You criticize something even a little bit and people will call for your head and all this other psychotic toxicity. That’s shits been around since the original fandom of Star Trek TOS but you see it in every fandom out there. Why can’t people just be fucking normal and enjoy things in a healthy and positive way. Don’t get me wrong I think there’s more healthy engagements out there than toxic ones but there’s just so much of that in every fandom that it’s fucking crazy
I think it stems from insecurity. Everyone in the community has to like the same things the right way… because if not, then there isn’t a cohesive community that they belong to in their eyes.
