Fandom IS real life tho. People who participate in it are real and they have real emotions despite that the things that cause them are fictional. Our brain makes no distinction between character problems and real life problems and produces all the same chemical responces.
Maybe you think people who react negatively to your blogs deserve to get upset, fair enough, but then they go and get other people upset, maybe those people who share your opinions. Negative emotions are negative no matter what causes them and that reaction chain is neverending. Why do you contribute to it?

Uh...your brain might not make a distinction, but mine does.

brain chemistry doesn't work that way, sorry
if you get kicks from hurting people online you would get kicks from doing it offline as well (if you ever find yourself in a situation where your won't fear retribution, that is)

You don't really know a lot about "brain chemistry", do you?

It's a scientifically proven fact. We empathise with anything and anyone - animals, fictional characters, real people, cars, computers, we're just uber social creatures and wired that way. This is why we like fiction in the first place - because it affects us just as strongly as real life situations.

It's also scientifically proven that a lot of people would never behave the way they do online irl.

This is not my point, it wasn't my comment above. My point is - if you're OP - that your behaviour _online_ is affecting people _in real life_. You can be an exemplary human being with people you who are being 'real' to you - i.e., standing right in front of you. But behind the little black letters on your screen are all the same real people. I can't fathom why is it a hard concept to grasp.

I'm not OP. I'm also not a fan of trollish behaviour because I think it's a waste of time. But what you are failing to grasp: If what OP said is true and they only have some unpopular opinion blogs that some people in fandom overreact to... That's not actually hurting anyone.
The other way around though...? Just imagine for one second that there was someone whose opinions on these fandom matters are the same, just genuine and without trolling. Why do you not see that getting threats about those opinions and getting harassed for them is hurting others as well and that it's not the fault of some trollish fan account that those harrassment campaigns have gotten so out of hand but rather the fault of the people who basically say "Those teens have no responsibility for their behaviour, someone evil on the internet made them do it!".

Yes, but what is the point of a troll blog? Is it raising awareness about bullying? Is someone getting any wiser about their behaviour because of a troll blog? No. A troll blog just makes people flip out. And that's it. Of course people can genuinely have all sorts of opinions and be bullied for them. Of course it is bad. But a troll blog contributes nothing good either, it's just being a troll blog.

True, bu a troll blog is still not to blame for fandom teenagers' bad behaviour.

To amuse oneself, if nothing else.
