It's true! It's true!
I see it, especially among film fans. But also among video game fans - the example which sticks out are complaints about Wii U's bad name because it was confusing to people who might think it is just an accessory of the Wii - when the reality is the problem with the name is just that it was silly =P
I am not sure what to call these sorts of fans - "advocates for the fictional idiot" fans?
I say this fully realizing that I am likely guilty of it.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
