Re: What characters/ships did you love until fandom ruined it for you?

The Carol love on the Walking Dead is getting on my nerves. I like her and appreciate her character growth, but the stanning going on for her is getting to ridiculous levels to the point of obnoxiousness.

The most recent problem I'm having is that people absolutely refuse to believe she killed those people because they want to think Carol is this perfect badass. I actually would like the show to take Carol down a darker path, and I really wouldn't be opposed to her going crazy (it's a zombie apocalypse show, people are going to break sometimes.)

I love Carol and I would like it to be confirmed that she killed Karen and whoever the other person was. XD I don't mind if she gets dark, I just don't want her to go the path of comic!Carol.

I don't think they will have her go down the path of comic Carol exactly (it's too late for that now anyway) but I wouldn't mind it if she went crazy.

For some people her killing those two is a problem because they want Saint Carol. I like dark characters though so I don't have an issue with it. It'd make her more interesting to me.

I admittedly didn't have much of a problem with or feel any need to deny what Carol did, but lately, I have a theory that she's covering for Lizzie.

Yeah I've seen that theory and I find it plausible (Carol would still need to be deeply involved in the cover up though.) What bugs me is not so much theorizing whether or not she did it, but the fact that these are the same people who were justifying her killing before the Lizzie possibility gained steam and you can just see the grasping at straws to try to make sure show Carol lives up to the Carol they've built up in their head.

This is a zombie apocalypse show, characters do not need to be that level of perfect, they should be dark and go down bad paths.

I'm on the same boat. I like her, she's interesting, but the stanning is making me resent the character.

But the ones who don't believe she killed those people don't bother me much. What bothers me is the "she was right in killing them and how dare anyone doubt her, judge her and/or want her away from the group." It's fine that it didn't make you dislike her, but acting like it was obviously a fine choice?

She said she killed two people who were not threatening her. What if it was, say, Bob and he had killed Carol and Glenn to try to keep the disease from spreading? Guess they wouldn't agree with it then, huh?

Yeah I've seen the justifications for her killing as well, I kind of lump that in with the same people who are saying she didn't do it, because where I hang out it seems to be all the same people who are either trying to justify what she did or theorize that she didn't do it at all.

I just don't agree with that level of stanning, especially on a show where the characters are not always supposed to be completely good or completely bad. There are tons of shades of gray and I think you should be willing to admit when a character did something completely horrible, even if you like said character.

And I agree, people wouldn't agree with the action if it was another character who did it to people the audience is attached to.
