I'm in the Ace Attorney fandom, and while I'm assuming that the ship wars have died down (I haven't been on Court Records in forever), I remember what it was like back in the day. Phoenix/Edgeworth shippers were hated for their supposed smugness, Phoenix/Maya and Edgeworth/Franziska shippers were hated for loving "gross, incestuous" pairings, Phoenix/Iris shippers constantly played like they were victims (and to be fair, they did get a lot of flack for loving an unpopular character), het shippers in general were hated for alleged homophobia, and gay shippers were hated for alleged delusion. At the end of the day, what was the fighting for? What did we get out of it?

The bottom line is that plenty of people feel like drama and wank are fun. I think that most of us do, at least on some level. Oh, we pretend to hate it, but is that really true? Many of us also derive pleasure from being a part of a "team" as it were.
