I have seen people stick around the comment sections of YouTube channels that cover subject matter they hate (and I don't mean Asmongold-like commentaries, this is neutral news stuff), and be continuously negative and hateful for YEARS, rather than just LEAVE.
The pro wrestling fandom in particular is full of this bullshit. Check out F4WOnline's comments sometime. The circlejerk of haters all upvote each other and keep the positive ones down.
Sadly i don't think its bots. I have seen these kinds of people in other fandoms as well. Its most common when its the fandom of a large franchise and a particular entry of that franchise is significantly more popular than the other entries. That more popular entry will get tons of endless unwarranted hate from people whoe prefer the other ones. Its extremely unhealthy.
Banned or lost interest. Why stick around if the show was crap?
