    Don’t. You’ll just find out all the ways in which it sucks and how you are dumb for liking it. Don’t spoil it. Just enjoy the art on your own terms.

      …no? This is specifically referring to things like fanfiction. Haters rarely actually write fanfiction - you’d have to be really dedicated to despise a work enough to devote hours of your life to writing in its universe. Fanfiction is generally quite earnest and made with love for the original work.
