Eh... I mean, you're absolutely right that you can just ignore a fandom, but as someone that enjoys quite a few of those shows and likes engaging with fanworks, it's isolating and sad to not be able to do so. I've been in a lot of "shitty" fandoms, really (SPN and Sherlock to name a couple), but it was much easier in those to still find good people making good content-- maybe because of the sheer size of the fandoms? I don't really know. It's just hard to sift through all the shit in these animated fandoms to get to nice things, and that's... sad? Idk, I'm not trying to fight you or anything, I'm just expressing frustration with the situation.

As to your second point, I do think you're reading too much into it here. Yes, when you boil it down they're just shitty fandoms, bu it's a fact that they all share very noticeable negative traits, in a way that not many other fandoms do-- at least, not to the same extent. Sure, people will paint an overall picture with it (not without basis) to "prove a point," and I can see how that would be annoying, but it doesn't change that there's definitely something to it.
