There's an academic I follow on Twitter (SamAburime) who's whole thing is documenting what's wrong with kids these days and even published a peer-reviewed academic article about it. It's part of an ongoing fandom purity war, seemingly waged 99% by Gen Z-ers; a disabled professional artist recently lost their job (and with it, their health insurance) over some NSFW Invader Zim fanart and is, from what I can put together (as someone vaguely aware of the situation from the outside), making end-of-life preparations because of it. A lot of this goes back to (of all things) Voltron (2016) fandom and Kylo/Rey 'shipping. It's wild and it's dangerous.
It's really scary that the kids these days are so reactionary and conservative in their worldview and even weirder because they think they're being progressive.
