What are some things you don't like but don't get the hate for?

What are some things where you consider it a red flag if other people wholeheartedly hate them?

Characters, canons, genres, actors, music, hobbies, all fair game

The Last Jedi.

Was it a great movie? No. But I don't think any of the newer Star Wars movies were particularly good, and TLJ didn't stand out to me.

I'm not a fan of most of the romantasy books out there because for me I just don't find them fun, but the peal clutching hate is overblown and rooted in purity culture misogyny. Oh no, women reading... SMUT. God forbid.

I'm not calling them good by any metric and they aren't above criticism, but that criticism quickly becomes about them being smutty, and women having the nerve to enjoy that, rather than anything else.

Hate to be that person, but Taylor Swift. I am pretty neutral, I like some songs but the genre in general isntfor me. But I do not understand the rabid hate she gets.

I mean...I do actually understand it academically but I don't get people being blinded by irrational emotion like that.

I'm meh on a lot of 13's run. I love her, but only a few of the episodes were good, and overall there was a lot of issues. but I don't get the level of hate for her.

I don't like romance as a genre at all. But people who have huge levels of loathing and act like it is vapid in ways that other things aren't. There is so much fantasy, scifi, and action that has the same lack of depth. That isn't a bad thing, pure fun has value on its own. I find fantasy and scifi fun. Others find romance fun. Nothing wrong with that.

Honestly, *most* things I don't like I don't get the hate for. Even the things I hate, most of them are not a truly big deal-- like, I might hate a certain ship, and if that ship is my friend's OTP, I don't think they have bad taste, let alone a moral deficiency, I just think it's great that they can enjoy something that sets me off as long as they have other people to share it with. I try not to make things I hate into my entire personality. While I'm capable of going off on a good rant about something when it comes up, I find it VERY easy to not think about those things unless someone is actively reminding me of them.

I don't think it's a red flag if you *personally* hate pineapple on pizza-- my sister hates pineapple on pizza, I can't eat her favorite pizza topping either, we just don't eat the same pizza. But there is a level of 'hates pineapple on pizza' that like, yeah, I consider it a red flag. Sometimes in part because it feels more performative than based in genuine personal taste in a way that hating pepperoni or mushroom does not, but mostly because I find people who make a Big Deal about how horrible pineapple on pizza is and how it shouldn't exist... well, if they can't respect that I might enjoy a pizza topping they don't, I don't trust them to respect any OTHER difference in opinion. If you can't handle the fact that pineapple on pizza is my favorite, at BEST you'll also be a dick if our tastes in movies or our favorite pets don't align, and I certainly don't trust you to respect any deep personal beliefs or *experiences* I might have that don't align with your own.

It's a red flag if someone hates cats.

Re: Inspired by 6

[(Anonymous)]

Ehh, I don't think there is one personally? Like it's more about how someone hates something more than the fact they hate it for me. Even with the 'wholeheartedly' cavat, since people can completely despise something but not let it rule their life, while others will make it their life's mission to ruin something that vaguely annoys them, which is much more of a red flag to me.

Most things that antis hate. Age gap ships, incest, weird kinks (I don't even like most tame kinks), panty shots and stuff like that in anime. I'm not going to consume media centered around those things but if they crop up in canon it's just a mild discomfort I can ignore if I mostly like the story. For fanfic, I don't like don't read, it's not hard.

The furry comm/fandom.

Never interested me. Getting glimpses of it, it doesn't interest me that some in the comm have breeds or cat/dog/other furry animal that come with specific traits and personalities (fursonalities, if you will).
But I've never found furries scary or "weird to the point it bothers me".

I actually find people who have really strong dislike of furries or as only an easy punching bag to be the real weirdos to be cautious of.

If someone is constantly critical/hateful of every single fictional lady and/or non-white character over stuff they will literally laud white male characters over then that's a massive red flag for me.

Having one or a few characters of the latter that someone doesn't like? Sure, they might hit a character archetype that person hates. More than fair. But if someone is only ever having a problem with women or non-white characters? Yeaaaaaah, it always ends up with that person being a raging bigot who then starts throwing slurs around.

How're you today?

[(Anonymous)]

I fucked up and made my psych appt too last minute so now I may have to go a couple days without my meds which is causing a tad bit of anxiety. Usually my pharmacy fills it the next day! But I got a call from them that my insurance is being weird and needs "manual approval" or something and it may take a few days.

Other than that today was pretty good! Good weather, my garden is going well, and it is almost the weekend. How about you?

Recovering from some severe GI issues and lack of sleep and still coming in to work. But the silver lining is it's Friday and we knock off early. I'm ready to bedrot.

Re: How're you today?

[philstar22]

So exhausted. I've had issues sleeping for the past couple weeks. Also had a really bad day in court on tuesday with an awful judge who is a genuinely terrible person. But I have tomorrow off, so happy about that. And the next couple weeks are much lighter than the past few weeks have been.

Oh, also, even though my old insurance was blue cross HMO and my new insurance through job is blue cross HMO, somehow my old primary couldn't be selected. So now I have to see new doctor and get new referrals for all my specialists. And meanwhile, an emergency neurology appointment I had a few weeks ago happened to be on April 1 when new insurance started. Which means insurance refused to cover, and I'm going to have to pay out of pocket unless I can get a retroactive referral somehow.

Okay, I guess. I don't know what I did that caused a tendon in my right leg to go awry painfully, but it resolved itself after I could finally get some sleep. Did some petty chores in the house, getting ready for a relatively active Saturday.

[kaijinscendre]

Exhausted but looking forward to visiting my sister! We are having a bunch of big shit happening at work. So glad it is almost Friday.

My co-worker has been out unexpectedly so I've had to do everything myself, but at least I get next week off, so that's nice.

Re: How're you today?

[greghousesgf]

I had plans for this weekend but they got cancelled and it looks like I'm going to be very bored unless something unusual happens.

Re: How're you today?

[(Anonymous)]

I got a lot of little things done today, so even though they are not “big deals” it still felt good to get them done and off my to-do list.

So, pretty darn good!

I had my third really good day in a row. I can’t remember the last time that happened.

Re: How're you today?

[dani_phantasma]

Great I'm starting the last module of my networking course. Lets see how far I can get tonight so I can finish this course, get the cert and move on to the next :D

Re: How're you today?

[tabaqui]

Eh. Okay, because it's a day off and I did some stuff and relaxed at home with my cat and all, so that's fine, but my hours are fucked up and the person who did the upcoming schedule had me working two twelves and a sixteen hour shift like, lady, wtf.
Plus, that means i *only* work those days, so someone else is in 'my' house overnight and the other two overnight people just generally fuck things up, which is annoying as all get out. So, meh.
On the plus side, I am getting my birthday off. On the not-plus side, I am down four hours so again, another week at less than forty, ARGH.
It rained today and was lovely.

Today was okay. I can't complain. I managed to get some sleep, then I went to my psychiatrist without any problems, then I got my knee x-rayed, and read several pages of my book on the bus home. I got home at a decent time, I treated myself to some Diet Pepsi on sale, and my relative surprised me with some fish and chips dinner from the restaurant they ate at.
