Some people hate things as a hobby. I say that a lot, and I'm really serious.

Some people play video games, watch movies, or read books, and other people just hate stuff. That's their whole thing. They seek it out. They doom scroll until they find something to hate, and then they latch onto it and spread that hate wherever they can. Most of them don't even realize they're doing it.

I've seen so many good things fall apart because of this internet hate machine. It's sad.

It’s just the new innovation in hating. Instead of yelling at the TV it’s broadcasting your hate to others via social media.

I wish it wasnt so easy to hate all those things. Video games getting bastardized with monetization, movies being the same recycled shit year over year, and books getting censored so that kids won't even know what the originals are anymore. It all fucking sucks. I wish it was easier to just like things and enjoy them but god damn they make it so hard sometimes just to enjoy the little things we used to love. But that's just capitalism for ya

There's still plenty to like out there.

I dislike exploitative games as much as anyone else, but I just don't play them. But that's not really what I'm talking about, since that's a legitimate complaint.

Movies being recycled year over year isn't a thing.

Books being censored is an example of conservatives hating things.
