One of my friends got into the fandom of a really popular tv series and it's weird how intense it can get based off of what they've told me about the fandom. I sometimes I wonder if people join fandoms to filter their negativity towards something. Because it sounds like my friend and their fandom will always find something to be angry about. If it's not the show runners fucking up, it's the actors, if it's not the actors it's the anti/pro shippers/shippers hating each other. And it's like, wow, why do people hate what they like so much?
