[QUOTE="BB Shockwave, post: 8707815, member: 6799257"] That existed well before TNG. Jim Davis was often harassed on the streets by little old ladies who thought he was a merciless evil bastard because, well, he played Jock Ewing on Dallas who was an evil bastard. And speaking as a Transformers fan, I absolutely hated Wheelie and his rhyming nonsense, or stupid Daniel whom every Autobot had to babysit and who always messed up everything. But only very, very stupid people hate the actors for the portrayal of a character. Smart people hate the writer/director. But even so, civilized people will not send in death threats. They might rant about how the show could be done better on the internet, or starts a petition, or anything that is more constructive. Sadly, even if you do that, the people who use the "toxic" buzzword a lot will lump you in with the death threat sending misogynists and racists because to them, there can be only 2 sides, theirs and everyone else who they deem is in the wrong. I never hated Rey, or the 4 ladies in Ghostbusters 2016. They were actors doing a job, and they did it to the best of their abilities. It was the writing that was atrocious. You could give the whole stagnant, already super powerful without any flaws character traits of Rey to a male actor he would be just as big of a Gary Stu as she was a Mary Sue. [/QUOTE]
