(Consider this some cathartic ranting if you will)

My mind wandered to this today and I think there was something of a circle effect in the fandom. I personally can admit part of the reason I got so negative about Regina, Rumple, Neal was because of the negativity surrounding Hook/CS and how vocal it was, it was in a way a defense mechanism.

That's what I mean by a circle effect; one side gets negative, the other side counters with more negativity and each side gets louder and louder and then the fandom is a toxic hellhole.

My new fandom approach is trying to focus more on what I love. Not completely disregarding critical thinking, just going back to how fandoms should be; a place of enjoyment, especially with OUAT which has ebought me a lot of happiness
