There’s always something people have demonized. First it was fat, then it was food additives, and lately it has become sugar. But things people see as evil don't end with our diet.
Other commonly disregarded stuff may have to do with music, like the controversial band known as Nickelback or going to psychological therapy, or not liking animals like rats, tarantulas, and snakes.
We rarely reflect on why specific things cause us such adverse emotions, so this viral thread may give us some perspective. The simple yet thought-provoking question “What doesn't need the hate it gets?” was asked by Redditor u/Alexdoesthedo, and it has clearly produced some very illuminating responses.

The rain. Rain is f**king awesome. It feeds all the plantlife, makes puddles, and my personal favourite, at night time the rain reflects light and makes even traffic lights look f**king amazing. Jesus I love rain.
Atheists. Most of us are nice, sensible good people just like you, we just happen to have different views on religion. Just like any religion, of course there are extremists that give the group a bad name, and the rest of us look down on them and don't support how they act.
Not wanting kids.
There is nothing wrong with not wanting kids. No one should have to justify their decision not to have kids.
Except that I spent three decades being shat upon for not wanting them and my husband heard NOTHING. I got called a "sick bitch", "Twisted",and "not a real woman" by total strangers for years. ...///... I tried to explain this to my husband, but he didn't believe it until he actually overheard someone doing it.
Load More Replies...Yes please. Stop harassing people who dont want them. My MIL would ask us constantly (she already has 2 grandkids) despite how many times we told her that we didnt want them. She only stopped when I told her that I cannot get pregnant (true but not the reason why we dont have kids). Same with my grandmas. Please you see me twice a year (I live abroad). Dont waste our few moments together lecturing me about marriage and kids. The other day one of them sent me a letter (i write to them sometimes because they like it a lot). And she was again insisting about kids! She got her first greatgrandchild. And has 6 grandkids. When is it enough?
It's always better to not have kids if you don't want them. For you and for the kid(s). A child should be loved and taken care or, not just brought here to fulfill a person's selfish needs.
Exactly!! I can't understand the comment about child free people being the selfish ones?? People breed to fulfill their OWN wants - they WANT a child, so they have one. Not wanting a child is not selfish to anyone or anything!
Load More Replies...I'm totally ok if you don't want kids. I DO have a problem with people that don't have kids and trash talk children. "make that brat stop crying, kids are disgusting, keep your crotch fruit away from me, why should I pay taxes for schools when I don't have kids?". When you are a senior, the kids from today will be your doctors, politicians, police, pharmacist, mailman, etc... and it is in your best interest that those kids grow up to be competent for the sake of the society that you will be living in.
Anyone who says kids aren’t disgusting is a liar. And you shouldn’t let your kid inconvenience others just because you want the kid around. The things you’re quoting there are being said to you because you’re being inconsiderate of others.
Load More Replies...Why do people care so much what others do in their lives. As long as it's not harming others, it should be no one else's business. You do you.
this needs to be higher, and in general i believe other people's lives is not anyone's business
I always wanted kids, but knowing I would not be a very good parent stopped me.
Thanks for saying this! I also don't think I would have been a good parent. Rather tired of being called selfish for what I considered a rational choice NOT to screw up some poor kid's life. Maybe, if more people knew themselves better, they'd think twice about parenthood. Not a bad person, but I don't like being obligated to do certain things. Maybe, instead of being a lackluster parent, I just chose to be a phenomenal aunt!
Load More Replies...I support childless people even more now that I have 3 children of my own lol. This s**t ain't easy and respect to those who know beforehand that it's not what they want!
No one is obligated to reproduce and there's nothing wrong with you for not wanting such a massive responsibility; it's not for everyone. Hell, a lot of people with kids quietly wish they hadn't.
yeah....seems to me it's better to not have the kids you don't want...than to actually have kids you don't want, really..
Far to many believe not wanting kids is the same as hating kids. I don’t hate everything I don’t want, simple as that.
I dont have that problem as no woman will want me so automatically I dont have kids😊
It is actually one of the best things you "don't" do to help save the planet.
We never had kids but don’t regret it one bit as we would have been terrible parents. Every child should be wanted and not born to satisfy the expectations of older family members or (God forbid..) that the family name might die out. What makes your genes so special and who actually cares?
I'm getting really tired of this internet trend of announcing to anyone and everyone that they don't want kids. I don't care either way, so please shut up.
People wouldn’t have to say it if others (esp. parents) keep pressuring them to do so. Us child free folks are quite happy without them and don’t need those with them to tell us how unfulfilled we supposedly are. I wouldn’t even mention it but it is pertinent to the post in question. If you really don’t care either way then why did you bother to comment on a point that deals with it in the first place?
Load More Replies...Personally, this is a more sensible decision than being irresponsible parents and producing scarred offsprings. Can't tell you the horrendous talks I have with my dad, his excuse is that he was never ready to have wife and kids
I have kids and I'm totally for people who choose to not have them . It's a hard job and shouldn't be taken lightly and why should you have to do it all that makes us unhappy people with unhappy children. You do you x
The problem is the people who don't want kids who have to justify that by saying negative things about kids.
Saying that the responsibility and time that parenthood demands isn’t for me doesn’t automatically translate into “I hate kids”.
Load More Replies...It is fine not to want kids. It is even admirable. But those who have to tell us how horrible kids are to justify it are the problem. No need to call kids names and demean those who have them. It is true, you don't have to justify not wanting kids, but stop the insults. I respect those who say they don't want kids and leave it at that, or who say, children just don't fit into their plans.
What's worse is the people who allow themselves to be bullied/manipulated into having them, despite not wanting them. Can you imagine being parented by someone who resents you? No one wins in that situation.
My problem is, my parents are fine with it. I have somewhat old-fashioned grandparents, who I haven't actually told I don't want kids.
People with kids probably think gosh these little bugs are costing me a fortune and always sassing me never do what they're told. Why should those guys on holiday in exotic places every year get away with it. B@***@@s. Seriously, my nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews are fantastic and their parents have an awesome time and awesome holidays with them. I'm glad I haven't got kids though because I have a mental problem, don't panic, nothing drastic, not thinking of taking over the world or anything, but it is a pain and I wouldn't want to pass it on.
Kids, an amazing investment in time, energy and money, that returns your investment with grandkids.
yes. just because people don't want kids doesn't mean they're cruel. they may not have the lifestyle for kids or just simply aren't ready for them. And these are personal things, so mind your own bussiness and move along. people have the right to make descisions about their life.
I'm cool. Also with people not wanting to get married too. You do you.
EXACTLY. There's already enough over population. Stop trying to push everyone to add to it.
I WANT kids... But i want to adopt one. Birthing one hurts. And sometimes its not worth the pain.
That's because you are too busy navel gazing to think of anyone else but yourself. Probably good you don't choose to have kids because they'd be even more selfish than you.
It's normal not to want to have kids in your 20s or even early 30s. At some point you will want to have kids. Trust me.
Both my missus and I are in our 50s and we still don’t want kids. It’s not like we fit the stereotype of loads of disposable income and a holiday habit that would be compromised by children (we haven’t had a holiday in 15 years) - we just don’t feel maternal or paternal. Simple as that.

Reading.
Even those who read scoff at what others read and it's not necessary.
Reading overall is good for the brain and memory. Comic books, magazines about cars or fishing, romance novels, old classics, it's all reading.
There's no need to feel shame or shame someone for what they read.
Enjoying cartoons as an adult.
Good content is good content and looking back at the cartoons I loved now and then. I do have superior tastes.
Child please. I'm approaching retirement age and I never stopped watching cartoons.
Therapy. It's never a bad thing but I definitely still know people who are firmly against or see it as a sign of weakness.
People who want to live a basic, "normal" or "boring" life. From all generations, I am constantly hearing locals/normies being made fun of for not wanting a ~fancier~ lifestyle but like... Why does that matter? Besides, just having a roof overhead is luxurious to to some people. Let others live the lives they want to.
Rats. They're some of the funniest, most affectionate and intelligent small pets, with a ton of personality, who actually enjoy engaging with people.
They get a terrible reputation for carrying disease or being aggressive- which is just not true for domestic rats. Growing up I had almost every common pet rodent you can think of, and hands down I'd pick a rat over a hamster any day.
Cats. Many people I know absolutely despise them because they think they cant love you the way some dogs can, or they remind you of the stereotype "crazy cat person" or the whole "they're all aggressive/bitey/scratchy" thing. Once I had both dogs and cats (and reptiles!) in my house - and though I love both, cats tended to speak a little louder to me. I'm part of a TNR company and ended up raising one of the cats I caught while searching for my missing cat last month and realized how sweet they can be if you take the time to earn their trust and give them space when it's asked for.
Bra straps showing. Like what? Why does it make you mad? It's fabric. And if I'm not mistaken, you're covered in it on the daily.
Sleeping with stuffed animals. You’re never too old for that.
The North American Opossum. They're docile unless threatened, and I think they are endearingly cute. They perform a great service by eating tons of pesky insects, like ticks. Added bonus, they are almost entirely immune to rabies.
Teenage girls who are obsessed with something (a pop star, a movie, a book etc). Let people enjoy things.
Broccoli. Steam it and melt a little Smart Balance on it. Yummy. Your parents didn't know how to make it. It's arguably the healthiest food you can eat, at least in the top ten.
Muslims, they are really misunderstood everywhere.
I'm in favor of practicing any religion you like, but Islam is one of the most intolerant religions to ever exist. There is no Muslim-majority country where being gay isn't hazardous to your health. There isn't a muslim-majority country that isn't a hellhole in regards to women's rights. Islam is incompatible with liberalism, the same way 14th century Catholicism is incompatible with liberalism. If you want to follow Islam, as a liberal I say you do you, but don't expect me to turn a blind eye to the religion's social problems.
Homeless people. Austin, TX just reinstated a ban on public camping/sitting/laying down, with zero allocation for actually helping the homeless population.
Sharks. They're just a well designed killing machine and the chances of them killing you are super low. Orcas and dolphins are actually "meaner" if you want to look at them in a human way, they'll purposely mess with you or hurt you. Sharks might just bite you on accident.
Hyenas. Most unfairly villainized and maligned animal in the world all because of some stupid Disney movie. They are not scavengers at all they hunt 90% of their prey and lions steal food off of them far more than they steal off lions. They are highly intelligent predators with an equally important role to play in the ecosystem.
Teachers.
I can personally confirm that I was a piece of work in grade school - then high school. And it wasn't because of teachers - it was because of me.
So true! Living with a teacher every day, and believe me, it's not only the kids, but also the parents, the school board,....
Snakes. They are awesome pets and the super dangerous ones don't want anything to do with you. I can't stand people killing snakes they find. To me its like killing a stray dog you find. Just call animal control.
Snakes are so cool, we used to have a pet Murray darling python. Sadly she passed away a few years ago.
Trans people. Just like many other minorities, most people get little exposure to them other then what they hear and see online. Aka the trans freakouts and anti trans pages aren’t too realistic, along with the tumblr 30,000 genders people, “real” (not because of a coping mechanism or fetish, etc but fr like born that way, ) trans people irl are quite normal.
GMOs. Humans have been slowly doing that since we started cultivating crops, now we can just do it quicker. And there are millions of people who rely on GMO crops to not starve to death.
It's just Monsanto GMO seeds. 1 generation so they can keep selling them, and they don't care if their product does get into organic fields nearby. Losing natural, unmodified seeds to Monsanto's greed is terrifying.
Brussels Sprouts. You can do so much with them! Just stop boiling the hell out of them.
People with the Karen haircut who are actually normal and chill.
TV shows made specifically for toddlers. They are toddlers. It's all colors and shapes and being excited over simple things. That's what toddlers are about. YOU don't need to watch the show. It's not for you.
Nickleback - I'm not a fan, but it's just kind of generic rock music that you are in no way forced to listen to.
Billie Eilish. I don't know what it was that made people go "eeeew, BiLlIe EiLiSh" but come on. She's an interesting person and her music is genuinely good. I'm not one for forcing artists on people, I just don't get when a relatively innocuous musician gets that level of hate.
And while I'm at it: Taylor Swift writing about relationships. Just about every artist in existence has either written about their relationships at least once, or usually write about love/relationships, either through experience or generalization. Why is it okay for people like Ed Sheeran, John Mayer, or Ariana Grande to write about their relationships without much uproar, but when Taylor Swift does it? Sheesh.
Body pillows.
There's no law saying you have to put something sexy on it there's plain colored pillowcases for them literally everywhere.
They. Help. You. Sleep. Gud.
How can people hate body pillows? I have one covered in a plain white sheet and it helped me have the best sleep I've ever had. Honest to god, I recommend everyone to have one.
Veganism. We just don't want innocent animals to get hurt yet we get mocked for it all the time.
People do not hate the veganism, we hate the aggressive, "only we can save the world, you f***ng animal killer"-like evangelist vegans.
Anyone showcasing genuine passion and hobbies on social media.
Boy bands/ any music where the target audience is teens/young women. people need to stop assuming that anything that is liked by that demographic is stupid.
I don't think people hate boy bands per se. I think they hate the cynical manufacturing of them by music companies. 'OK, so we've got the super handsome one, the goofy one, the sensitive one, the blond one...' 'Can they sing?' 'Sing? who cares?'
Kristen Stewart--she's just socially awkward during interviews! She's a decent actress. People freak out that she's not super emotionally expressive... Some people just aren't!
Except an actress should be able to ACT AS IF they have emotions. Especially in movies....
People who lack basic human compassion. It's a sentiment that we have lost, at least in the US, and it makes for some seriously cold f**king people. Worse, it's more socially acceptable to be a cold-a-- prick than a compassionate human being. We need to fix that s**t if we want to have a functioning society...
I have battled this notion for decades. I repeatedly hear how people will "knock out" someone who so much as cuts in line from them. Or how "I just tell people how it is" without the need for tact. The entire world feels it is admirable and correct to forget about kindness, that being a bully is strong. No, it is far more difficult to be kind and concede even in the face of adversity. If you were to get slapped on the face, and then offer your other cheek to be slapped as well, you are deemed a coward or a door mat or "you should stand up for yourself". I once was punched in the nose at a dance club because the guy who asked me to dance had a girlfriend there, I didn't know. I recounted this story to my friends, and told them I didn't punch her back...100% of them said that I should have hit her..I want to know why? What in the hell would that accomplish? I know who I am, I know I am strong and I know that compassion, tolerance and kindness is what makes me strong.
Nuclear powerplants....
People freak out because of the radiation but almost everyone is oblivious to the amount of cr*p a coal or oil powerplant dumps in the atmosphere.
Nuclear waste is relatively easy to store and modern nuceal powerplants have good safety records.
"nuclear waste is relatively easy to store"? We need ways to store it for 100 000 + years, before the radiation reaches safe levels. The human race has never stored anything that long. We don't even know how we will make people aware of the danger in the future, since no language will survive that long.
Furries. Well most of them, they're actually pretty nice people.
Funko Pops. People absolutely hate them even though they're like $10 vs $100 for an actual figurine. What other people collect should be of no concern to you just because you "don't get it". People collected Beanie Babies back in the 90's for no reason and everyone was cool with it. Funko Pop's are the same thing.
There was tons of hate for beanie babies and their collectors. Most of what I see regarding dislike for funko pops is ire towards the producer of the entertainment for taking such a lazy option for merchandise instead of somehow "awarding" dedicated fans. Note, this is explanation, not opinion, you can pry my Harry Potter funko from my cold dead hands.
Indians. Yes a proportion of men are horrible here, and there's crimes against women and all but not all of us are Simps or predators. We are 1.4 billion, so even if 5% are criminals it's still 70 million people.
Imagine Dragons.
They were the Nickelback of the 2010’s.
It’s time to pass on the torch of hatred for a new overly mediocre band with bland and generic music that all sounds the same.
Seriously? Didn't even know that people hate them. So many fantastic songs ❤
People who work with fossil fuels, My grandad drives a fuel truck for work to deliver fuel and he stops at a gas station and occasionally some A-hole decides to go off and say your polluting the environment and your making it worse, people like my grandad do the job because it provides food for the family and it’s something they have a lot if experience in, that doesn’t make them the target to bully
The Last Jedi.
And this isn't even that true. Objectively speaking it was a massive success that the vast majority of the audience and critics enjoyed. But the people that hate it seem to think they're the majority in the Star Wars fandom and act both like a smug majority and a defensive minority.
It's a good blockbuster movie that has great actors, themes, cinematography, and effects. Sure it has some plot conveniences and physics bugs but for the love of the Force you'd think the people that point those out had never seen a movie with plot conveniences or physics bugs before or consider a completely tight plot or perfect adherence to space wizard logic to be the most important things in a movie."
"It's become such a toxic thing because a lot of the people that hate it hate it with a radioactive passion that ruins Star Wars discussion for everyone else (8 hour video on how TLJ is a cinematic abomination, really?)
That's not even getting in to the people that sent the actress that plays Rose death threats. Though I think every sane person that has an opinion on TLJ can agree that those people are insane children.
I guess you have to be part of the fandom, most I ever heard in regards to this movie is "it's a new Star Wars movie". I've seen it, I remember thinking that it was way too long (nearing the end I couldn't remember the beginning), and I don't really recall that much from it.
MSG. It’s like salt but on crack and exploding with flavor.
I can't believe I'm saying this but... Cyberpunk 2077.
I'm not going to defend the state of the game at launch at all because it was absolutely horrible. But I've noticed the conversation has trended from "The game underneath is good but it's technically f**ked up" to "the game even when fixed is still just half a game".
I know people were expecting a lot more RPG elements, but IMO the game when it works is a pretty good game and I feel like a lot of people just want to bag on that game that haven't even tried it.
And I say that as someone who thinks The Witcher 3 is super overrated and wasn't expecting to even like CP2077.
I dislike it because I was looking forward to it for so long and then they made it 1st person only and I’ll never be able to play it without throwing up, I dislike it because it broke my heart. :.( (yeahyeah I know about the mods)
Speaking as a comic nerd, Superman. Maybe a niche thing but he's either dismissed as a boring one note OP god with no substance who can just beat his way out of any situation, or a boring cornball with no edge to him. Both very incredibly wrong, for different reasons.

The Star Wars prequels.
The Prequels were terrible. They turned the mystical Jedi into basically the Gestapo for the Republic. the Jedi are a police force that have no oversight, can execute someone they suspect of heresy without a trial (not that heresy should be a death sentence). A Jedi makes an order for million (billions?) of soldier clones AND NOBODY BATTED AN EYE.
Fortnite as a game, the community deserves the hate. Fortnite’s premise is interesting and creative mode can lead to amazing results. The community though...
What part of the Fortnite community? I would consider myself a member as I play nearly ever day, what did we do wrong?!
TikTok. Sometime it does, but most of the time it doesn’t.
I've learned a lot from TikTok, like products, hacks etc. It's like every other tool, it's the way you use it.
People who text one sentence at a time send Because I don't think of one big paragraph and then send it to you send I live in the moment and text how I think I'm carrying on the conv when new ideas appear in my head send And sending them straight away so I have your attention as if I'm talking to you send As I think you're likely to click off after reading one sentence so I try to keep you there send I don't plan my text it comes out random so I'm typing as I think- like I said. Who does walls of texts anymore? Most don't read or forget to reply. send I love receiving texts this way.
Ugh. People who use 10 texts to say what could be said in one drive me nuts. I have better things to do than tend to my phone for half an hour while you send me a single smiley face emoji or a thumbs up. Just because you have nothing better to do with your time doesn't mean I'm not up to my elbows in washing up water, or trying to read without constant stupid interruptions.
I think a lot of people hate these things because media and the internet tell them to.
I'll add introverts. It's okay to be an introvert, you don't have to be an extrovert, introverts can be fun, too an it took me years to realize that.
I love my introvert friends! I'm a socially awkward extrovert, but I'm a heck of a lot more outgoing than many of my friends.

I will add: innocently staring at people shouldn't be that bad. We are visual and curious creatures and sometimes we just want to look with wonder or appreciation at someone else, but it's always perceived as creepy/perverted, and unfortunately it often is. I often check out someone's hair, shoes, backpack decals, facial structure, clothes etc. but terrified that I'll be "caught" appreciating their style or something. For this same reason, I never compliment strangers the way that I want to.
Now you need to take into account that the other person doesn't know your thoughts. Many do stare with creepy intentions. And also that no everyone is always waiting for compliments. Having some empathy about that would make it easier to understand how it's not appreciated to stare. Also, what you personally want should never be at the cost of discomfort of another.

All of these that where mentioned just remind me how great it is that people enjoy different things. A lot of things I wouldnt learn or hear about if someone didnt introduce me to it. What a boring world it would be if we were all the same, acted the same and liked the same things. Love and embrace our differences but try not to be an asshole if someone is not like you or likes things you dont.

But if the reason you dont like furries is because you think that kind of stuff is kinda odd and you're just not into it, you're fine, have a nice day.
I will also add: Lilly Singh. Why is she getting all this hate on the internet? She's worked hard for her success, and anyone who is insecure enough about themselves to criticize her humour, doesn't deserve to watch her videos. As long as what you're doing is not hurting anyone it's fine.
I worked as an hourly worker in some chemical plants & refineries... I got a bachelor's degree in humanities... It was so useless that I couldn't get a job selling insurance on commission with it... so I went to work as a workin' man... I was hated everywhere I worked because the workers didn't have any education beyond high school, and they were jealous and offended that I would dare to work in "their plant". They would tell me to my face that I was a fool for working there with a degree. I got tired of telling them that I was making three or four times what I could get with the useless degree...
I got my AA in social science and humnaities becuase after basic training and tech school I only needed 6 classes to finish it. I went on later and got a bachelors and masters degree in computer programming and IT. Most of the AA was the general ed stuff that all degrees require. Not a useless degree.

I would add K-Pop, J-Pop, and C-Pop as well! I enjoy this music and I'm teased and judged for being interested in different cultures? Same when I listen to any music in Spanish or French. I'm always judged for listening to different languages and I don't understand why. I showed a friend an English version of a K-Pop song and they SERIOUSLY enjoyed it, but when I showed them the original, they were disgusted that I had "tricked her into listening to that stuff." It makes me really upset that fans are teased and judged for listening to this. It's our musical taste, and no one is asking you to be a fan, so please just respect the fact that WE enjoy this. Thank you.

I will also add: Lilly Singh. Why is she getting all this hate on the internet? She's worked hard for her success, and anyone who is insecure enough about themselves to criticize her humour, doesn't deserve to watch her videos. As long as what you're doing is not hurting anyone it's fine.
I worked as an hourly worker in some chemical plants & refineries... I got a bachelor's degree in humanities... It was so useless that I couldn't get a job selling insurance on commission with it... so I went to work as a workin' man... I was hated everywhere I worked because the workers didn't have any education beyond high school, and they were jealous and offended that I would dare to work in "their plant". They would tell me to my face that I was a fool for working there with a degree. I got tired of telling them that I was making three or four times what I could get with the useless degree...
I got my AA in social science and humnaities becuase after basic training and tech school I only needed 6 classes to finish it. I went on later and got a bachelors and masters degree in computer programming and IT. Most of the AA was the general ed stuff that all degrees require. Not a useless degree.

OK, so why do I get made fun of if I want a gd inspirational quote in my home.?! There is nothing "basic" about me. Ya'll are judgmental a-holes. lol
I would add K-Pop, J-Pop, and C-Pop as well! I enjoy this music and I'm teased and judged for being interested in different cultures? Same when I listen to any music in Spanish or French. I'm always judged for listening to different languages and I don't understand why. I showed a friend an English version of a K-Pop song and they SERIOUSLY enjoyed it, but when I showed them the original, they were disgusted that I had "tricked her into listening to that stuff." It makes me really upset that fans are teased and judged for listening to this. It's our musical taste, and no one is asking you to be a fan, so please just respect the fact that WE enjoy this. Thank you.
uhh you see there are no problems when it comes to k-pop its just the fandom has toxic stans :(
