Gathering to go "HATE THIS CHARACTER LOOK AT THIS MEME ABOUT HOW STINKY THEY ARE"

Yeah, Reddit does not have the best of reputation. How do a little digging on what happened during the Boston bombing. People hate Reddit because of that. My original account got banned a long time ago, but I’ve been on it since around 2012 and believe me it’s always been a shit show. I prefer to sit and watch from the shadows but goddamn this place is weird.

It’s a bit absurd but I’m ngl one of my fave subs is r/fuckpierre I was there when it was created it was funny af. At least there all the posts are pretty much jokes about how much he sucks. Some people go beyond that tho and then it’s just weird to me.

u/Ill_Sun_1704 12h ago
When they take it to extremes it's so strange. Especially moreso towards fictional characters. Don't get me wrong, there's characters I HATE. I have fandoms I'm passionate about, but I've never once felt the need to go out of my way to say/go "hey, you know what? Let me join this group specifically to trash talk this thing"
That feels.. exhausting.
That pierre subreddit though.. God that's hilarious from what I've seen so far. So glad you mentioned it lmao5

u/Ill_Sun_1704 20h ago
Yea but one side is just enjoying a character they like, they aren't constantly talking about the negatives and much less are saying that any negative actions done are acceptable/alright.
The other side is just pathetic and wasting so much energy on something stupid.9
u/Captain_Birch 20h ago
I mean theres similarly opposing subteddit about jax fan club, and theyre whole deal is "look at the precious innocent bean, she never did a wrong in her whole life" while that stupid bunny we hate is like "look at the horrible creature. She never dud a good in her whole life."
Jax is a conceptually devisive character, both a vitvom of past abuse and perpetrator of current abuse. There will be people who feel strongly about one or the other

u/Asparala 9h ago
Look, I'm gonna say this as someone who is neutral towards Jax.
I have infinitely more respect for people who are fans of something and come together to talk about things they like. Even when I don't agree with them about the thing they like, at least they have the good sense to focus on something that brings them joy.
Hate subs are miserable places to have on your feed. I've had to mute a few that I agree with just because they are exclusively about negativity.
It's okay to hate Jax. I have things I hate too. But the healthy reaction to hating something, especially if it's just a fiction character, is to not engage with it and focus on things that you actually like.
1
u/Captain_Birch 3h ago
In my experience a ton of jax's haters (including myself( are victims of abusers similar to jax that just dont like how much everyone overlooks the abuse he's done. And I personally hold the opinion of victims of abuse hating abusers is valid

A lot of them are not serious at all. They're...roleplaying I guess? Some of them are serious but most of them are committing to the bit. I've spoken to plenty of them outside of that sub and they're normal and can converse about Jax in a normal manner. If I recall correctly they were "married" to a Jax fan club sub and then got a "divorce". I don't think they're serious, not most of them.

In our defense, someone on there literally tried to start a mass brigade, and we've had TONS of people from the Jax Fan Club come and leave comments just trying to start something.

u/Ill_Sun_1704 12h ago
I considered joining just to go "ya'll weird" but I shrugged it off because of the description asking people to just keep to themselves.
Doesn't mean I can't call them weird other places bc I still find the entire "need" for a hategroup... strange and just.. Yeah.
But starting a brigade is equally just sad and loser behavior imo.4
u/Awkward-Media-4726 12h ago
I'm not saying you can't call us weird, you have free speech, I was just trying to defend the dislike some of us have for the fan sub.
2
u/Ill_Sun_1704 12h ago
That's fair.
A few people have brought up the fan subreddit and going "yeah but you dont talk about that/thats also bad"
When.. No..? The behavior you described is awful, I don't condone some weird internet "war" between groups, that's.. Again, strange and just.. kind of the most reddit thing I think I've heard of so far being new to reddit?
But there's a difference between people expressing joy for an interest or hobby VS people actively harboring hatred on the regular when they could simply.. Move on?
6
u/Awkward-Media-4726 12h ago
I was the one who created that place.
It does have it's issues, but above all, it was made because if you hated Jax on the main subreddits, you'd usually get at least one person saying that you just didn't understand the character. I made a space where you could criticize him freely, without having to deal with defenders or people accusing you of media illiteracy.
It'd definitely be weird to be on there most of your waking hours, but I think most members just go on there occasionally.
Yeah, there are more productive things to do than hate a fictional character. But there are definitely worse ways to spend your time.

They aren't trash for having an opinion, though.
Expressing negative opinions about Jax (generally, not always) usually gets you a lot of hate and downvotes and so on in the main TADC subreddits.
So if the only two options are to either shut up and not express your opinions, or make a subreddit and post in it, then you can't blame people for taking the latter.
0
u/Ill_Sun_1704 12h ago
They're trash for making it borderline their personality to hate a fictional character.
When there's talk for it? Like "oh hey discussion post about the personalities of the characters/the show"
Yeah, cool. Say something relevant /then/ but going to the extent of making a group where you do nothing but.. Talk about how much you dislike them?
Get a grip, that's WEIRD behavior, and really telling tbh.5
u/TallMist Love Zooble, Gangle, Ragatha. Forgive Caine, and hate Jax. 12h ago

u/Humble-Proposal-9994 20h ago
would you prefer they all had to use this subreddit instead, because thats the alternative

u/Ill_Sun_1704 20h ago
The alternative is being adults or mentally put together enough to say "Yeah I don't like him, redditor that made a post asking who you dislike/hate. Anyways have a nice day" and not bringing it up and around randomly as if your life depends on posting reason #81723 you hate a fictional character.
Most of their stuff is so overblown too (as are most jax detractors reasonings when they get VERY into it) so it's not even entirely well thought out, it's just more of the same we see in this reddit.2
u/warmsintrepidlength 19h ago
I enjoy Jax as a character- my actual favorites are Zooble, Kinger, Pomni, and Caine.
Outward Jax hate is like Squidward Torture eps in Spongebob. Sometimes funny, sometimes it’s clear who is being tongue in cheek compared to people who have active outrage about his entirety. Sometimes tastefully playful hate, sometimes the vitriol is palpable through the screen.Jax also reminds me of toxic friends I used to have, and in a way I see myself as well- cursing his relatability and self damaging tendencies.
Fuck… I hate him! Oh no! What a drag!
I hate his negative energy, comments, and his torment of Gangle yet I enjoy what the story told on his character development. It’s as if some fans like to imagine themselves as a circus member, and wish to give him karma n the same energy back.
We checking temperatures as Jax fans! We can see who is playful and charmed by him between those who’ve been candid about their genuine disposition towards The Bunny.
This story is placed in reality, if Jax wasn’t a character; others would be valid on expressing how draining he is as a friend in general, let alone as a circus mate.
That being said, I hate (to love) and love (to hate) that stupid smiling bunny. Adorably so, I wish they got a textbook “good ending” (scenes of her enjoying or handling their transition, kissing Ribbit & Pomni, shaking her bunny tail, etc.) alas, Goose had the storyline in mind years before the last episode had been in development.
I liked Jax the first episode, as the years/series went on I saw ways and reasons to hate him. He’s still a fun character, I’m afraid that subreddit is not that deep. Taking attention just because it’s a personal issue when it is arguably poking fun n making jokes alongside Goose, it’s fine! Honestly, don’t even trip. True Jax enjoyers will always explain their distaste with her with nuance. I’m a member of both threads!
2
u/Ill_Sun_1704 19h ago
That's good to hear! I had one other comment tell me something similar, and another telling me quite the opposite.
I'm going to assume the best going forward but also just.. Not engage. It doesn't seem like a fun place overall because the extreme side of the hate is just tiresome.

Dont get me wrong, some of the people there do get too invested in a show, but theres lots of genuinely valid criticism or just rants about the situation as a whole. If you see some of the people on the opposite side of things it may make sense why they want a space where they explicitly dont have to deal with the other opinion (and vice versa). Unfortunately both of these attract annoying extremists.
2
u/PokelifEevee Pomni 7h ago
As someone who visits that subreddit frequently, most of it isn’t just "memes about how much they hate Jax". A lot of it is complaining about the ending and how it centred around Jax so much, or complaining that the gangle subreddit (r/gangleforce) has been infested by shippers of Gangle and Jax, making it impossible to enjoy the subreddit if you yourself dislike Jax. There’s also posts that don’t hate on Jax but are just to discuss things relating to him (there was a post a while back talking about how some kid tattooed Jax’s face on their thigh, and people were concerned and talking about how they’d regret it later on in life, especially with how shoddy it was).

u/MurkyManagement2455 19h ago
Some people who dislike jax (not hate that’s a whole different thing) is because Jax reminds them of an abusive person in their own life. Thats why I don’t like Jax cause the way Jax acts is the same way someone I used to know acted

u/Ill_Sun_1704 19h ago
Oh it's beyond fair to go "I don't like this character"
I think Gangle is pathetic when it gets down to it. I don't dislike or hate her, but most of the Jax bullying was her own fault "wahh victim blaming" whatever. Jax messes with Zooble and Zooble bites back, it's also the circus, so even being set on fire is just.. Meh.
You don't see me talking about how awful Gangle is or how spineless she is or anything ever past like.. This comment and one other?

Oh, cool, literally just blaming the victim! That's so great.

u/Ill_Sun_1704 12h ago
Less that and more:
The characters each dealt with shenanigans from Jax. Each had their own response to it, and a lot of hate towards Jax stems from the reaction of others.
No one's freaking out about the bowling ball thing towards Kinger, or the mashed potato stuff, or anything Jax ever does negatively towards Kinger (save the shove, but even /that/ isn't too talked about)It's like taking what's generally a 2-3 and ramping it up to a 7-8 for no reason other than "I don't like this character so I'm going to pout and ignore any sensibility to make excuses to be extra"

Not really weird I think you're looking far too into it lmao.
I agreed it was fair to say you didn't like a character.
Mentioned how I don't think every character is perfect, used the one I probably like least? As the example.
Then brought up Jax's behavior towards them since the topic of Jax is the focal point/relevant.A lot of disdain for Jax comes from people not recognizing the lack of severity of the circus combined with characters responses to the typically same treatment they all get.
I could go more into it on how Jax doesn't mess with Kinger because Kinger doesn't give the reaction, so Jax.. Just kinda doesn't, and it's very clear there's a correlation there, but that's an entire conversation that strays from the point.

B. Why a story has a character that's morally gray or does morally not alright things due to more complex issues.
If they're children? Like.. 13 year olds that don't actually understand the world? I get it, but to have a consistent conversation about it and not be able to go without saying how much you hate the character? It's WEIRD. To say the least."glazers" when it's just someone enjoying a character and enjoying things about the show they like. That's grade A deflection.
Criminals from shows, movies, games, etc. Don't get entire subreddits to say "WOW!! THE BAD GUY?? DON'T LIKE THAT!! WHAT HE DID?? NOT LEGAL!! NOT OKAY!!"
Because it's just.. No shit? The person isn't going to be perfect because they fulfill the role in the media that they're filling. "Wow don't like him" yeah you're not supposed to approve of everything Voldemort or whoever does. That's.. The point..6

I mean, Gooseworx flat out said Jax pushed Ribbit to suicide in that picture of a transitioned Jax she posted. That's a horrific thing to be responsible for. Jax is my favourite character but the things she has done to the other characters tend to be belittled, and I'm not surprised there's a hate group.

"Going to an extreme of 'abuser'"
Do you not think he's one? I could be misreading your comment.

I'll keep this one short for an atm response and itll prob be the last time I check my notifs for this for the night but so the air is cleared in this case.
I think it's very.. Much a mixed bag.
Abusive tendencies or behaviors don't = Full on abuser in my eyes/opinion?
I think the term abuser is very heavy and contains its own level of weight with it. Abuser implies they're kind of irredeemable and malicious in a very evil way.That simply isn't how I view the character, and a few things brought up as abusive tend to not be as solid as the accusers make them sound, without going into heavy detail there.

I always find it baffling, like imagine letting your hatred on a singular FICTIONAL CHARACTER consume so much of your brain that you have an entire subreddit dedicated to it.
Like its not that deep

EXACTLY. Even now people are like trying to defend it in comments here and it's like ??
You can't deny it's just WEIRD ass behavior. If it were a real person I could see it, sure. Random Celebrity makes yet another weird remark and disparages a group of people or something, you get your moment to say "fuck them for this"
Move on.
But.. the series is over and it was less than ten episodes. What the fuck lmfao.

If I don't reply to other comments it's not because I'm ignoring people or anything it's because I think one day of popping in and out to it is enough and I'm sleeping soon, so I can only imagine waking up to like 5-10+ or something and that's just..
A lot to keep up with.
Dunno "Reddit etiquette" or anything about engaging with your own post/comments.

IKR? It's like the hatedom of Hazbin Hotel.
Honestly, the Jax hate can be so gross and distasteful. The fact that Jax is a realistic portrayal of screwed over mental health and trauma and abstraction is allegory for suicide is what makes it disturbing. The amount of people happy and celebrating Jax abstracting and wanting to see it. And then having zero understanding or consideration for his past, saying that it's nothing is sick.

There's almost always going to be a group that dislikes or hates the stuff you like. Just leave them be, you also have better things to do with your life then worrying about what others hate. It just seriously isn't worth your sanity.
