Fandoms and Opinions

Description

    Want to know something I really hate? It's when people based their opinion on a certain product not because of the product's own quality, but because of how that certain thing's fandom behaves. A good example would be Steven Universe, It's a great show but it's fandom can be pretty terrible at times (Hell some caused a artist to attempt suicide because they didn't like her art) which causes a lot of people who aren't SU fans to not only hate the fandom, but also the show itself. I mean why? sure the fandom is bad but that doesn't mean the show itself is bad. Another recent example would be one of 2015's newest fandoms Undertale. The game may be praised by many, however there are some who don't hold that same opinion and the people who do like the game tend to overreact and harp on others who don't like the game until they change their mind. Now I've haven't played Undertale yet, but I do have some interest in the game, and when I do eventually play it I'm not going to let either side affect my opinion on it, I'm just going to experiance it like I'm the first person to ever play it. My point is you shouldn't just boycott something just because their fandoms behave badly. If you don't like SU or Undertale then fine whatever, but you should only dislike it because of the show and game itself, not because someone insulted someone else for disliking it.

I may not be into this SU show, but I don't let fsndoms of my favorite stuff get to me easily either. I mean, everybofy has a right to make their oen version & follow it, rather than be forced to stick to the original or somebody else's version they may not like, right?
