My only problem with people who don't watch any source material is that most of them aren't like the OP and don't bother to research, which leads to a lot of misinformation being spread around. I agree, though, that there are people who have watched source material who rely just heavily on fanon tropes (and they're generally the ones who start spreading said tropes/characterization around in the first place, so that's how people who only engage with fanworks get those ideas in the first place). Mostly, I'm a live and let live person. I don't think I could be into a fandom for a show I'd never watched, but I don't see the issue with other people enjoying things that way. So long as they don't try to convince me of things that have never, ever happened in the show are canon, that is. Like one person I met in TW fandom who hadn't watched the show and tried to argue with me that Stiles' dad being an alcoholic was canon because they'd seen a gif set of him drinking from season one on Tumblr and... no. That is a case of definitely running off of fanon and not checking your facts. Then again, I've had people who've actually seen shows (and not just TW) make statements like that that are just as not-based in canon, so...
