To some people, there is only one thing worse than anything they consider horrible — people liking it. In a nutshell, a Fan Hater is someone who hates the fans of a particular work. Often in a Hatedom, but not always. The thing is that to these people, art is Serious Business and they treat their enjoyment of art the way some people take to competitive gaming. If you like anything not up to their standards, they will either mock you, mock that thing in front of your face, or just go on a diatribe about why you shouldn't like that thing. To make matters worse, they will also stereotype fans (e.g., anybody who likes comic books is an obese loser; anyone who likes anime is some annoying, anti-American, over-obsessive wannabe Japan-fetishizing freak; people who like cartoons are pedophilic Manchildren; boys who watch girls' cartoons are gay; girls who watch boys' cartoons are fake geeks or Yaoi Fangirls; anyone who likes metal/punk is a wannabe tough guy or a pretentious hipster jackass; people who like rap are wangsters; anyone who watches Professional Wrestling is a redneck-homo and thinks it's 100% real; etc.) and not fitting any of these stereotypes will induce either a No True Scotsman or they'll still find at least one thing they find negative and stereotype the fans of the work with said negative thing. Fan Haters tend to refer to the targets of their hatred as the "Lowest Common Denominator" or "unwashed masses". Note that hating the work in question is not required: there's plenty of Fan Haters who have nothing against the work in question, and are "merely" repulsed by the associated fandom—a common case of the Fan Hater is somebody from a more general fandom finding a subfandom creepy and horrible. Be warned some may pretend to be fan haters, but are in fact Trolls, which some find to be worse, depending on who you are. A Sub-Trope of Hate Dumb and Opinion Myopia. The inverse is Complaining About People Not Liking the Show. Due to past messes, please avoid Take That! statements, flame bait, "This Troper" blurbs, redundancy, and redundancy. Common forms of this trope: Accentuate the Negative, in which the person sees or expresses nothing but negative values in a work and trashes anyone who dares to actually like the work. Adaptation Decay, in that they hate anyone who likes an adaptation that isn't the original version. Animation Age Ghetto, in that they hate anyone older than 12 who watches anything animated. Broken Base, in that the dissenters will hate the loyalists for not giving up on a particular series. Comedy Ghetto, in which they hate anyone who likes a work just because it isn't serious. Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch: In which they attack a work they know little or nothing about. Condemned by History: The work they hate has fallen out of fashion years ago, so why should they have to tolerate the few who still like it? Dead Horse Genre, in which they hate on people for liking what they deem inferior brands of music. Fandom Rivalry: In which one fandom hates another fandom, and vice-versa. Fan Dumb, in which they assume all fans of a work to have the same negative stereotypes and viewpoints. Girl-Show Ghetto, in that they hate anyone who watches a cartoon not "intended for" their gender. Hate Dumb, in which they dislike a work because of trivial reasons. Hype Aversion, in which they dislike a work simply because people keep recommending it. Hype Backlash: In which they hate a work simply because of the attention it has received or is receiving. A subset hates things that are critically-acclaimed. Hypocrite: Many of them may actually like the work they claim to hate. It's Popular, Now It Sucks!: In which a work is hated for having mass appeal, selling out and abandoning the "true fans". It's the Same, Now It Sucks!: in which they hate you merely because you like something that they see as the same as something else. Jerkass: They just want an excuse to be a jerk. Misaimed Fandom: In which they hate you for liking something the "wrong way". No True Scotsman: In which they claim you're not a "true" fan for liking a work. Nostalgia Filter: They hate a work just because it's new and not something they watched when they were younger. Public Medium Ignorance: They are known to complain about works of fiction just because they are in forms of media that they don't normally read, watch or play. Psychological Projection: In which they project their own negative & toxic behavior onto the fans of the work, accuse them of having those traits, all while also denying that they themselves are doing that very thing. Essentially, they say: "I'm not the jerk. Those 'fans' of the work are the real jerks, and as such deserve my contempt." Sci Fi Ghetto: They assume that science fiction works have no artistic merit whatsoever. Scrub: Players of a competitive video game who insist that all players should play their way. Serious Business: The MST3K Mantra most certainly does not apply. Stop Being Stereotypical: In which a work has a notoriously unpleasant or obnoxious fanbase that results in more level-headed fans turning against the rest of the fandom; when someone says something akin to "I love the work but the fans are too toxic", this is the sentiment at play. "Stop Having Fun" Guys: In which you get hate for playing a game the "wrong way." They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: They dislike an adaptation or reboot just for making a few changes to the source material, even if the change is relatively minor or if the original work would have been difficult to make a completely faithful adaptation to. All the True Art pages And especially Guilty Pleasures, because they'll try to make you feel guilty for it. See our Analysis page for more details. noreallife |

The Simpsons: Multiple episodes like "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge", "Bart After Dark" and "The Great Wife Hope" make it perfectly clear that Marge will go after any kind of entertainment she considers unwholesome with zeal in a relentless hunt to shut it down, even if (and at least once directly said especially if) it's something she cannot herself see enjoying because she is an incredibly boring woman and her beliefs of what's "fun" are equally annoying. | |

In Beavis And Butthead, they were watching a Bon Jovi video. Beavis didn't think it was that bad, and Butthead kept smacking him for not thinking it sucked. Finally Beavis got fed up and kicked Butthead in the nuts. In the 2021 relaunch, Butthead throws Beavis out of his own house for dancing to BTS. | |

Don East of Anime Abomination usually avoids this, but he had a particularly sour spot towards Blue Exorcist. When the show was airing on Toonami, he would get annoyed that the series got better ratings than One Piece. At one point, he said that if Blue Exorcist got better ratings than One Piece, he said he hoped for the fan's sake he would never meet them at a convention he was going to, which sound like a threat. | |

As part of its increasing meta-ness, Act 6 of Homestuck introduces Caliborn, who is basically a personification of the comic's fan haters. This includes the people who complain about their friends talking about Homestuck and trying to get them interested in it. This character is revealed to be a younger version of Lord English, who in the second intermission of Act 6 murdered Homestuck author Andrew Hussie. |

JesuOtaku, formerly of Channel Awesome, was known for his exceptionally harsh reviewing style, attacking not only shows but also whole fandoms. By far his harshest moment was describing MLP:FiM fans as a bunch of whiny, misogynistic, borderline-paedophilic Psychopathic Manchildren (this goes into more detail). He also once upset RWBY fans by saying the show was "an anime brought to you by TVTropes" and anyone who liked it was stupid and had absolutely no standards, and has also voiced similar sentiments towards fans of Doctor Who, the new Star Trek movies by JJ Abrams, and every single series created by Joss Whedon, among others. | |

I Hate Everything, despite the title being an exageration, is also pretty notorious for this with a short list of fandoms he hates (to the point of making a Top 5 Worst Fandoms list) including: Anime fans, Bronies, Five Nights at Freddy's, and (most recently) Rick and Morty, though generally he directs his vitriol at the more extreme subsects who take things too far. | |

Rob Walker, Doug's brother and co-writer, however, is not by any means above this trope, especially towards fans of Man of Steel. He even insulted Angry Joe because he defended it, and attacking fans on Facebook who commented on the fact they enjoyed it, in one case even insulting one for "not being able to accept other people's opinions" when the fan called him out on insulting fans for liking it, without any sense of irony. It didn't help that he kept ranting about the film more than a year after it was released, even frustrating people who also hated it. | |

Rock fans vs. disco fans in Detroit Rock City. This one is based in reality. During the late 1970s there was a very real rivalry between rock fans and disco fans. The rivalry came to a head on July 12, 1979 (sometimes referred to as "the night disco died") during a baseball promotion called Disco Demolition Night, which resulted in thousands of rock fans storming the field at Chicago's Comiskey Park to express their hatred of disco. The event made news worldwide and less than a year later disco was effectively dead in the United States and Canada (although it would remain popular in Europe for another few years). |

Big Brother: In the 11th American Season, four previous players were invited as "guests" to give their insight on the current game being played. Danielle stated that she wanted Natalie to win, and held up her hand to silence the audience, who begun to boo. Players have taken potshots at the fans of other players (or even previous seasons) but these have never made the feeds. There was also controversy in Season 13 where Jeff had gone off on a rant, not only insulting the premise of Harry Potter but also taking a few potshots at the fans. |

He seems to be unable to understand how anyone can like the certain movies that he absolutely despises (The Lion King and 2001: A Space Odyssey in particular). And sometimes can (probably unintentionally) insult the fans of the movie that he's reviewing. | |

My Immortal is basically set in a world with this as its hat. There are but three sorts of people in My Immortal-land; "goffs", "posers" and "preps". Being a "goff", which entails wearing black clothes from Hot Topic and listening to the emo bands the author likes, is the One True Path and everyone else sucks for existing. "Preps" are the unwashed masses who shop at Abercrombie & Fitch and worship Britney Spears. "Posers" are "preps" who try to be "goffic" but listen to the "wrong" music and are thus evil. The Parody Fic Xtremly Scray - which has its goffic characters beat people up for even remotely liking their preppy bands and movies, films like Top Hat and Die Hard (They declare the only true goffic films to be either Tim Burton (including his less German-Expressionism inspired films, like Pee-wee's Big Adventure) or low budget horror B-Movies like Shark Attack 3: Megalodon). |

Rocked averts this trope. Often when he's harshly criticizing a song or band, he will admit that he doesn't have a problem with his viewers actually liking what he doesn't. Though according to himself, he's still gotten death threats from Limp Bizkit fans. | |

There's a line in American Psycho where Patrick mentions that no one should feel sympathy for the woman he's forcing into getting an abortion due to the fact that her favorite movie is Pretty in Pink and "she thinks Sting is cool." | |

It's pretty clear in his Turn Up The Music review that Todd in the Shadows hates Chris Brown's "Team Breezy" fans as much as (or possibly even worse than) Chris Brown himself, citing all the instances in which they wrote off the Rihanna scandal (or even worse, accused her of instigating it) and even admit that they'd let Chris Brown beat them (though he admits that at least some of the latter posts/tweets/etc are more than likely Trolls.) He does clearly distinguish between people who like his music and people who like him as a person. Todd finds Brown as a person to be absolutely repulsive and can't understand why anyone would like him, but doesn't care if you like his music, admitting to liking a few of Brown's songs himself as well as pointing out that he himself is a fan of the music of morally suspect people like Phil Spector. |

The Spoony One made a series of videos talking about his hatred for Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X, and Final Fantasy X-2. This has caused Noah Antwiler (who plays Spoony) to take some real backlash, with him having to point out that Spoony is a character and not everything "he" says is Noah's real opinion. Then things got a little worse when Noah (not Spoony) disparaged Nintendonote Saying they needs to shut the doors on all of their primary franchises, especially Zelda, which he calls an unchanging series and TRON: Legacynote Calling the movie crap and one of the worst films of 2010 and insulting anyone who liked it by saying they have low standards and are easily entertained. He also said that if you like Final Fantasy XIII, you are lying to yourself. Same with Battlestar Galactica. |

Game Show Garbage, a WrestleCrap-type site that focuses on Game Shows, once featured the Price is Right fan site Golden-Road.net as one of their inductions. In the article, Robert Seidelman collectively dismisses the members of the community as Fan Dumb, accusing them of having overactive Nostalgia Filters and being too quick to cry They Changed It, Now It Sucks!. He also takes a milder swipe at the GSN message boards. The article eventually was toned down to be a little less harsh and remove attacks on specific members. Encyclopedia Dramatica also has an article bashing Golden-Road.net. |

Family Guy: in "The King is Dead", Lois is outraged that the people of Quahog liked Peter's rewriting of The King and I and lambasts them for approving the "mind-numbing schlock". In another episode, Peter is watching a public access show devoted entirely to talking about how awesome KISS is. They get a caller who says "KISS sucks!", prompting Peter to angrily declare "Trace the call!". The host recognizes the voice as Styx's lead singer Dennis DeYoung, and proceeds to insult him and his band. In "Brian's Play", Stewie criticizes Brian's hackneyed-but-successful play A Passing Fancy and denounces the audience as "braying hyenas". |

Dragon Ball Z has an in-universe case of this. In one of the episodes during the Buu arc before the World Martial Arts Tournament begins, Krillin comments on how he's unsure of who is more annoying: Mr. Satan or his fans. During the Cell saga, Krillin also admitted to cheering for Cell during Cell's "fight" with Satan. |

Yahtzee is prone to doing this when in character, and he doesn't just hate one kind of gamer — he's hated on people who like Eastern RPGs, Western RPGs, Silent Hill fans, people who like Halo, people who played Psychonauts, people who didn't play Psychonauts, console gamers, PC gamers, fans of point and click adventure games, people who own a Wii, fans of MMORPGs, Korean gamers, fans of sprite comics, fans of Ctrl+Alt+Del, fans of The Sims, Retro gamers, Indie gamers, people who hate retro, people who hate indies, Joss Whedon, anyone who likes Joss Whedon, etc. Most it is hyperbolic though, and plays into the Misanthrope Supreme Hates Everyone Equally persona he adopts for the reviews, and he frequently drops Hypocrisy Nods as he is a self-admitted fan of quite a few things from the preceding list. Somewhat less defensibly, he's also made numerous extremely vicious statements about Americans and their preferences out-of-character. | |

In Redaction of the Golden Witch, a considerable fanbase has grown around the mystery of the Rokkenjima Incident. In recent years, somebody has been pulling mean-spirited pranks at the WitchCon gatherings, seemingly trying to drive people away from the fandom. A subset of fans has actually latched onto this, blaming a new 'Golden Witch' for the incidents and declaring themselves their followers. To that end, they attend the Cons just to Troll and harass other Witch Hunters. | |

Rob Fleming from High Fidelity (Rob Gordon in The Movie) questions how one can be friends with people whose favorite band is Simple Minds. One of the reasons why he dislikes Ian is because of that weird ethno music he listens to. And Barry chases a potential customer out of Rob's record store because he wanted to acquire "I Just Called To Say I Love You," a song from Stevie Wonder's 80s pop period. | |

The Distressed Watcher made nine videos complaining about the Star Wars prequels; he often called the fans stupid. He also proclaimed that anyone who enjoyed Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen, even as a Guilty Pleasure, should be hauled into a concentration camp and killed. Keep in mind that Channel Awesome, the website he posted this review on, has a respectable number of Jewish contributors, and Doug Walker, the face of the site, called the movie "enjoyably adequate." Probably not the best choice of words. |
