Basically revolves around the concept of X thing being around for a long time, then some rando that just started some surface-level engagement with said thing and misremembers or misinterprets canon established years ago acts like their opinion is more important than long time fans of said thing.
A 'tourist' is typically people who just consumed some content related to a thing that recently went mainstream, then tweeted an essentially invalid opinion about it.
It can be about any franchise, media, sport, or whatever else. Like everyone pretending their takes on boxing are valid on Twitter because they watched Logan Paul in one fight, with no engagement with the sport beforehand.
Or like the other guy said: "Poser for the younger generations".
Ah yes, I agree with the term poser then. Tosser also applies to this. My first anime was dragon ball (note the lack of a Z) and I've been watching anime and reading magna since, more than any western serialization. Berserk and vampire hunter D FTW.
