Transcript by OP
When they're in every thread or post about a band or show or celeb they hate, talking about it 24/7 and then acting like they're soooo tired of the thing they keep engaging with, they're not fooling anyone.

(Anonymous) 2025-12-04 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)It's pretty annoying when they claim they're not trying to be mad but somehow stumble across stuff about their target of hatred all day every day when people who genuinely don't care, forgot the thing existed.
This secret doesn't mention Taylor Swift but probably some Swift hater is going to make it about her when it isn't.

Occasionally I will sit down to engage with something that I’m pretty sure I won’t enjoy, but want to be more educated about. At least I know that’s something I’m doing to myself.

(Anonymous) 2025-12-05 04:41 am (UTC)(link)My favorite aspect of this is when the people constantly raging and ranting about some ceebrity/show/movie/band/etc. are like, "God, why is this so popular/why is it everywhere?" I just keep wanting to say, "...because people, you included, are giving it attention?" I think a lot of people who spend thier time hating on things tend to forget about that - any attention, be it positive or negative, is still attention. The companies/celebrities/executives/etc. don't care why people are talking about something, they just care that they're talking about it. If people really want things they can't stand to go away, eitehr entirely or at least in their little corner of fandom or whatever, ignoring it completely really would be the better way to go.

(Anonymous) 2025-12-05 04:05 am (UTC)(link)It's not really about defending the thing or celebrity, it's about defending yourself. "You hate something I like, so you must think I'm stupid or bad for liking it. Well here's why you're wrong about me."

(Anonymous) 2025-12-05 04:11 am (UTC)(link)Eh, that comment isn't framing the conversation correctly anyway.
'Obsessed haters in general are annoying' hardly counts as a defense of anything, just like 'obsessed stans in general are annoying' isn't being a hater of anything in particular.

(Anonymous) 2025-12-05 04:08 am (UTC)(link)Don't like haters? You must be a stan.
Don't like stans? You must be a hater.
Truth is people who are neither of those things find both to be weird and often annoying.
