Depends what you like whether they're avoidable. Because they go looking for people who fit their idea of what a bad person is. And that stereotype has nothing to do with *how you actually treat other people* and everything to do with superficial traits, like "do you support sex between two characters who would be breaking some law if they fucked in my country and were found out?" Or simply ships involving a character that said anti and their little clique abhors.

And sometimes they end up in fandoms where I have no fucking clue what they think they're doing, there. The canon ship in Loveless is between a twenty year old and a twelve year old. Both of which are gloriously traumatized people. And at one point you had influential fans trying to claim that they (the fans) are upstanding, well-adjusted human beings, who like Soubi and Ritsuka's 'healthy, beautiful' relationship, while us people shipping Seimei/Ritsuka and Ritsu/Soubi are morally offensive degenerates.

Also, I've been in situations where "the antis are over there. I could avoid them," would involve standing by and letting them humiliate new fans who didn't know what posting three lines of "I just read this story and think X and Y are in love!" in the Tumblr tag would bring down on them. So, I see "things I don't like but don't have to read" as something I can steer clear of, and "people on a self-righeous power trip attacking fellow fans" as something to criticize and challenge when I see it, even when my ships aren't their targets.
