People who shit on comic book readers when they say, "I don't need to read the comics to be as big as a fan as such and such comic geek."

Yes, you do. If you claim to be AS BIG AS A FAN as the comic book reader but don't do the same amount of work as the comic book reader then you are not on the same level.

Yes, you are a fan but you not in as deep.

I'm tired of so many people shitting on comic book readers. There's still a stigma about them. It still feels like whole jock vs. nerd thing. Like the jock wants to be like the nerd because being a little nerdy is cool now but not too much that it would "stain" their jock cred.

Sorry but any time someone tries to seriously talk about jocks and nerds in a discussion about anything other than high school it becomes kind of hard to take them seriously. Because it almost always signals that the person has some kind of weird prejudice or other or some specific weird experience they're trying to work out. I kind of agree with your point more broadly even but why in hell do people have to take those figures of nerd and jock seriously

Same here. I just, "uh huh." once the highschool cliqueing stereotypes start coming out.

um

what you're talking about doesn't sound like shitting on comic book readers, it sounds like responding to elitists who are shitting on movie-verse fans

if someone is saying they're a fan of a comic that they haven't read, then that's pretty weird and doesn't make much sense.

if someone is saying they like a film based on a comic book or about comic book heroes, then that's a totally separate canon from comic books. in that case they don't care or want to read the comic books, they just care about the film. they are still True Fans of the film, though, regardless of having read the comic book/s.
