Simultaneously Too Old &Too Young For The Internet
Is it just me or despite being in an arguable golden age of televised and streaming animation, fans of animation (and similar media like comics) are some of the most negative, pessimistic, entitled man-babies to ever walk the face of the Earth!? I mean I understand everyone has their own preferences, but I feel so many people are blinded by a mixture of their own nostalgia and personal hang-ups they can't fully enjoy the multitude of great works of art & entertainment out there!
And don't get me wrong, there's a butt load of stuff still wrong with the entertainment industry itself in how poorly it treats freelancers, how corporations are cannibalizing one another to make creepy arse mega-corps, etc. But speaking solely of the actual shows, comics, etc themselves, we arguably have more quality content then ever before, so why is it all these hard working animators, story board artists, writers, etc have to put-up with so many entitled lunatics online and why do so many people feel the need to make overly negative youtube videos for easy clicks!? I mean criticism is one thing, but lets be honest most negative YT vids are just people screaming at your screen why [Insert thing here] is bad and you're an idiot if you like it, or "dern millinals/sjw's ruined mah childhood" or some other B.S. like that.
So why is it that so many supposed fans/nerds/whatever that claim to love a thing are often the most destructive/toxic part of it!?
