Fandoms you had hoped had grown up

For some reason, I thought Supernatural had gotten over their misogyny. But today I went back and forth with people who thought that John Winchester, the man who abused and neglected his small children, was a better person that Mary Winchester, a woman who came back to life and didn't immediately want to mother two complete strangers who were technically older than her and said they were her kids.

What fandoms and their issues have not matured?

Just saw that the Kaeluc antis are still going strong and it's kind of pathetic how they're more obsessed with the ship than the actual shippers.

That's... a weird level of devotion to a hated ship, my goodness. I'm shocked they're still around.

Yeah like, the ship itself has gotten fairly quiet but it's still living rent free in all those antis heads, it's kinda hilarious.

I think I would have appreciated the Osomatsu-san fandom more if they had grown up and realized they were fans of a show that would never have a core plot, and was 100% gag based humor. The backlash to the movie not having a plot and mostly just being tons of jokes about childhood best friends was weird.

Also, Fire Emblem free space.

Naruto lmao. The same ship wars being the main thing, but shoutout especially to the occasional comment about how Sakura is the antichrist because she made fun of Naruto for being an orphan at the very beginning of the series. Of all the ways you could criticize Sakura's lackluster character development, you just... invent something to pretend she never moved past?

All of them.
I've just given up any hope that any fandom I love, or loved, will outgrow any of its childishness. If only because a large majority of them are aimed at a young adult fanbase. Even an older fandom I was interested in had a newer remake that just flooded the fandom with kids.
I've had a real hard time connecting with any fandom since my youth, but seeing them saturated with the same old problems, even more so now than they used to be, to the point I've finally run out of things to interact with, let alone read, has really left me feeling much more alone than I'm ready to deal with some times.

Harry Potter fandom. I had hoped the members of it would see the ongoing real world harm that it is doing and enabling, and taken a moral stance. Given how many self professed liberals and progressives cite it as a formative influence, this should have been a no brainer. That they cannot even give up on HP and chicken sandwiches, tells us exactly why the GOP is going to be in power forever more.
