Short rant: It saddens me that Harry Potter's kind of become the new Twilight. Everyone agrees that it's awful. Although unlike Twilight, this includes most of the fandom.

Okay, the fandom was always... weird with that. From the start, really. But I never got why all the people who actually liked the books and JKR left, and all the people who think the books suck after the fourth one and JKR is the devil and Draco's leather pants should've defeated Voldemort stayed.

It's becoming cool to hate Harry Potter. I think a lot of people still love it though, tbh.

Backlash from oversaturation, maybe? In a few years it'll probably calm down.

People are hating on Harry Potter? Fuck 'em.

I liked the books and saw the movies (with the exception of stuff released in the last two years). As long as fucking Freeform doesn't air the movies every other goddamn week I don't think I'll get tired of HP.

Short rant: Everyone agrees that it's awful.

Translation: a small minority of people are now saying they don't feel total adoration for one of the most famous, bestselling, internationally beloved fantasy series of all time.

Haha, come on, no. That's just absurd exaggeration.

Translation of your translation: I'm eternally butthurt that anyone likes Harry Potter let alone that it's one of the most famous, bestselling, internationally beloved fantasy series of all time, and I also don't understand the difference between fandom trends and mainstream popularity.

You're kind of ridiculous. The fact that its internationally beloved etc. by definition means that most people don't hate it. If you really need to feel persecuted about something, your love of Harry Potter isn't it.

It's not universally hated but it's been receiving a lot of shit in fannish circles, which based on context is what I assume OP is talking about in the first place
