And that girl - I can't remember her name - has a popular redeemable post on tumblr and various meta discussion - again, highly received - around how shitty she was treated. And the only reason I'm not getting the links for you is because I don't have the data to go on tumblr app. But if you give as much of a shit as you're pretending, they're easily found. The In Defence Of meta by dirge without music is an easy example.

Love to break it to you, but tumblr ain't a hive mind. No one thinks what you're claiming be cause hardly anyone even remembers that scene about such a minor character. The only one who seems to be seriously claiming that some non existent hivemind thinks all characters are irredeemable is you and OP. You're so determined to play the morally right martyr that you're outright ignoring the fact a good portion of the fandom agrees with you. Redeemability is a giant trope across all these fandoms. A giant popular trope.

You're the one who needs to be told fandom isn't a hivemind. The OP is not claiming "everyone" says characters are irredeemable. OP is talking about the people in fandom who do say that. And they exist. There are lots of them. There are lots of people who love to write redemption stories, too. The secret isn't about those people. You seem to think everyone in fandom but the OP is all about the redemption.

The phrase "problematic fave" is popular because of perceived irredeemability. It comes from the pressure to flagellate yourself for liking flawed characters and make it clear that at least you know they're flawed and don't woobify or try to redeem them for being problematic.

"The OP is not claiming "everyone" says characters are irredeemable."

...when a fandom collectively decides...

Wrong-o.
