    Compassion and empathy for animals. Yeah, they say they like it if you don’t have any follow-up questions, but things go downhill real fuckin’ fast after that.

      Watch so-called dog people turn beet red in an instant when you try to point out that they are literally enslaving a sentient creature with feelings, who has been bred over hundreds of generations in inhumane conditions, resulting incountless congenital health problems, in order to produce a docile beast who can simulate affection and is literally miserable for the rest of the day when their human isn’t with them.

      But no, they say, Mr. Floof is happy! He’s just shitting the bedroom floor and digging compulsively because that’s what dogs do. Sorry Floof, I can’t walk you today, now go run your ruts in the tiny yard and pretend this plastic toy is an animal you hunted.

      It’s peak cognitive dissonance that most people struggle with due to years of social conditioning and lobbying. You can’t even publish the shit in the news any more. Add to the fact a lot of people just don’t think about shit at all, and it is a reality most people don’t want to see when confronted. Frustrating to say the least.

        I think they don’t struggle with the cognitive dissonance unless you really rub their nose in it, because there is hundreds of years of culture dedicated to finding the psychological tricks and mythology that allow them to relieve the tension without alleviating the cause.

    I was shocked to discover the hatred the old live action Mario movie gets. I enjoyed it when it came out when I was a kid. I rewatched it as an adult to see if my memory was faulty… still enjoyed it. It’s a little campy, but it’s a fun romp! I unironically enjoy it, as a good movie and not as a “so-bad-it’s-good” movie. And yet it gets so much hate

    Polyamory. I knew a lot of people didn’t understand, but the visceral disgust at the idea that a lot of people have is surprising.

      Here I am surprised that a person is surprised that non-preferred sexual acts would trigger visceral disgust.

      I mean, sex is actively disgusting unless your partner just happens to have the right combination of signals to transform it into something non-disgusting.

      The wonder is that any sex ever is seen as non-disgusting.

    1991 Hook with Robin Williams. I love that movie, but it seems that most people I encounter that didn’t grow up with it think it’s lame and boring.

    So maybe not hate, but not love either.

      It has a 49% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, so about half of people seem to agree with you.

      As a stand-alone film, it is probably fine. As an entry in the Ghostbusters franchise, I did not enjoy the film.

    Large Language Models (such as GPT) and AI image generators.

    I follow certain AI related post tags on Tumblr and sometimes I see people expressing pure hatred towards these tools, as they only see the AIs as content thieves.

      It’s not that I hate it, but like, chatGPT sucks.

      There was this uber hype around it, then we started using it … and it just makes so many errors, it’s literally just generating more work. Scrapped it after less than a week. It’s modern snakeoil.

    Streaming videos on my phone using speaker for audio while at the restaurant eating lunch. I figured for sure, everyone would want to get in on that awesome stand-up comedy action or zany talk show that I enjoy with my meal. It turns out that (gasp!) some people even think it’s rude…LOL.

    Here? Bicycles. Super weird how weird people are about bikes and bike lanes here. Spreading the joy of a non-commodified fun-as-fuck method of transportation often provokes some truly reactionary energy here.

        Here’s the problem: for the average consumer American, more than five minutes of exercise in a bicycle is apparently excruciatingly painful.

      Who doesn’t like bicycles? I mean, cyclists are often very reckless, dangerous people on the road, and bike lanes are sometimes more of a safety hazard.

      Bikers get a lot of hate because a lot of them act like pedestrians. (i.e. riding on sidewalks, crosswalks, not stopping at stop signs, not signalling turns or shoulder-checking) But then if you do all of that dumb law-abiding stuff like some kind of responsible citizen, people in cars honk at you, give you their right of way, or worse!

        “Who doesn’t like bicycles”

        proceeds to list every bullshit anti bicycle talking point I’ve ever heard

        Damn those entitled cyclists acting like they’re entitled to use the road without getting run over.
