So yeah, I'm still a fan of the show, I just don't watch it for the same reasons that I did before (it used to be to laugh, now it is to pass the time). I enjoy the creativity that this fandom has with animations, remixes and fan art, but holy shit, at least for me, it's now so hard to be a fan of this show. I'm warning you guys that this might get too real.

I dislike the main sub because it's now full of overzealous fans, and most of the discussions they have doesn't really interest me. I think a lot of the content over there is really far fetched, and I don't think the memes or recurring jokes they have are funny (DAE ninja brian kills people mid sentence?). That place is not for me anymore, there has been a noticeable shift in their audience and I accept that. They can have their fun, but I don't think I can be a fan in that place.

Then there is this subreddit, where I first joined because of everything I said on the last paragraph, I just wanted to see if people felt the same way I did about certain stuff and I definitely found it here, so I did my own share of venting, but now I don't think this place is for me anymore either. A lot of the constructive-criticism that this place used to have is now gone, and now it has been replaced with vitriolic circlejerks that really make me uncomfortable; one of the biggest one is the hate for Suzy. Look, I'm not her biggest fan either, but a lot of this "SHE CALLED US SEXIST WE ARE NOT SEXIST" rage that fills this place seriously bothers me. A lot of the hate she gets here does come from a sexist foundation, oh how many times I've seen labels such as "gold digger" or "she's only famous because of her husband" and "she's only on the show because she fucks the boss"; you cannot say shit like that and then be enraged when Suzy or someone else calls you sexist. I also see the whole "well, I liked Holly on the show and she's a woman so that proves I'm not sexist" argument being thrown around; guys, I can assure you that if Holly was on the show long enough, you would start turning on her as well, and wanna know why? Because Suzy was widely welcomed during her first few appearances, and look at where we are now.

Don't throw terms such as "SJW" when someone's ideology doesn't fit with yours. Be aware that just because something doesn't offend you or affects you doesn't mean it's not offensive. The "SJWs" are not ruining this show, Arin and Dan still say ridiculously offensive shit on the show (mostly racist stuff about Asian people), but apparently this is now a Nick Jr show according to some of you. Who cares if they add trigger warnings? How does the well-being of other people affect YOU? You get offended by people getting offended, how can you not see how ridiculous and stupid that is?

There's also people in this same sub trying to break the circlebreak and being the voice of reason, and they get labeled as trolls when all they do is try to explain their point of view that just happens to be different from the mob mentality. This comment for example, by the time I'm writing this, it was below the threshold even if it's just someone stating their reasonable opinion. A lot of users that have tried to be reasonable have become segregated, and they get laughed at their honest, valid criticism.

Sure, I still frequent this place because there are still good threads and discussion, but overall I don't feel like I belong to this community anymore. So yeah, being a fan of this show has become alienating, and I wish there was a place for people who feel the same way.
