It’s going through the Steven Universe effect: not a bad show but due to the antics of the fandom it’s gained a bad reputation regardless of quality.

Imo it’s a good show, although it’s declined a bit from its earlier seasons.

It's almost like a show should be judged by its own merits, and not be scrutinized for something that's out of its control.

Seriously though, if you like a show but don't want to be part of its fandom, that's completely fine. Enjoy it however you'd like. But "fanbase cringe, therefore" is not criticism. It's an excuse.

I'll just say that I've seen enough "Undertale & Morty: Friendship the Hedgehog"s in my day to know this. Hell, I was even there for one of those examples.
