    This is what I hate about any kind of hobby culture and have always been hesitant to identify as any. The amount of toxicity that comes out of what is supposed to be entertainment is unreal.

    So many people demand respect for their esoteric obsessions yet refuse to respect anyone else’s. Like, in the end none of it matters so just enjoy what you like doing and let others enjoy what they like doing. Why bother spending your limited time and energy hating on stuff when you can just ignore it?

      People are people. Some decided long ago that tearing others down is the same as building yourself up. If it’s going to happen anyway, I try not to let them spoil my fun. Luckily the next generation seems to be better about it, and even when there’s so many jerks their’s always better people having their fun.
