[Image description: tweet from tar-minyatur's court twink @caranthirs that reads:
"sometimes in the privacy of my own mind where it can't hurt anyone i become a hater for a character in a fandom i am not even in simply because their fans annoyed me too much. i find your client guilty only because you as their attorney were being a dipshit in front of me"]
Furthermore this is why tagging things you like and things you dislike with different tags (ie. having containment tags for the things you hate) used to be a common practice and that people who were deliberately searching through a fandom’s hate tags to white knight their favourite thing were generally ridiculed by both people who liked and disliked a thing.
Enjoyment is largely an amoral action. We’re not really shaped by it one way or another. A corollary to this is that dislike is equally neutral, and people can dislike a thing you like without it affecting you at all.
