Fans nowadays are toxic. Treating their idols as God or even more than God. They take their love and passion for a particular fandom too far, often exhibiting negative and harmful behaviors towards others who may not share the same opinions or beliefs. These fans may engage in bullying, harassment, or even online abuse directed towards creators, actors, and other fans within the community. They often engage in gatekeeping, where they attempt to dictate who can or cannot be a part of the fandom based on their own arbitrary criteria. Toxic fans can create a hostile and unwelcoming environment within a fandom, driving away potential new fans and creating division within the community. It is important for fans to engage in respectful and inclusive behavior towards others in order to create a positive and welcoming environment for all.

i agree with you. only, sometimes idols and stars should be realistic too; maybe not saying they really love their fans cause, that's not true and some small minded people take it the wrong way. also, maybe not charging for their merchandise too.
