Don´t worry, there´s a reason I started my last comment with If that´s true .... I also checked modlog and could not find anything that confirmed the accusation. As long as you won´t bind me to a chair, stick matches between my eyelids and force me to watch DIS instead of my beloved DS9, we are cool :)
Of course not. I don't care if someone doesn't like Discovery. I just don't like it when people are aggressively and needlessly insulting to it. If people phrase their opinion without attacking people who like it, or the show itself, then I really don't care. Say how much you think it fucking sucks all you want. It means I probably won't interact with that person as much personally but it's their opinion. It's their right. Honestly I cannot stand DS9 at all for a decently sized list of reasons. Do I expected to be downvoted whenever I voice that? Sure. But I don't expect to be removed. I share the same courtesy to people who dislike the thing I like.
That´s a very reasonable approach in my opinion. Everyone should be free to like or dislike whatever they want for their personal reasons and that is never a reason to downvote, be unkind, turn aggressive or even get banned. In my perception a lot of that kind of unnecessary negativity was typical for -and left behind on- reddit. That´s one of the main reasons I became less defensive and more positive in my communication and never looked back after leaving reddit myself. It´s only natural that different people like different things, why fight about it?
I wish more people would think that way, and btw watch out to not get a carpal tunnel syndrome from posting those unreal amounts of memes!
