I think the real problem is that readers are scared of being subjected to online bullying if they leave a comment on the wrong story and it has created a miasma of fear around it. I joined Tumblr in 2008; as of 2023, that was literally 15 years ago. I saw the bullying behavior that went on there and it had a deleterious effect on commenting culture because everyone was scared to be seen liking the wrong kind of media.

Zami being bullied into a mental institution over Steven Universe fanart still fucks me up sometimes.

The problem is that this culture has not gone away and Gen Z is copying Millennials worst tendencies with fandom cops and wrongthink policing. It's not a fake anxiety disorder when internet stalking by cancel squads is a real thing.
