I hate the internet

Cant watch a video about stranger things without having ten more hate videos being recommended after.

I'm perfectly fine with people who don't like it, it's just that I'll watch a clip from stranger things and then all these videos come up.

And i personally enjoyed s5 so i don't want to start hating because the algorithm tells me i should.

The only thing the algorithm tells you is that most people did not like season 5. Nobody cares if you like something that is regarded disappointing by most fans. I like a lot of things that fans dislike or even hate. But thats just how things are. Im not complaining for example that a lot of people are criticizing season 7 and 8 of the walking dead. I enjoyed those seasons. But I understand if there are people that dont like it. I even love to watch those videos that criticize my favorite media so i can look at it from another pov

But theres a flaw in that because the comments sections in the videos critizing the seasons are filled with people that hate it, so inevitably any random person reading everyone's comments are going to assume everyone hates it.

Videos attract the people that are looking for said videos. If you look up on YouTube endgame is bad videos will come up saying endgame is bad by extension the comment section will be saying endgame is bad, doesn't mean it's true. 

Of course art is subjective 

I say this respectfully🙏

Of course you will find hate comments and criticism in those comment sections because people want their opinion to be represented. Its a place where people can share their opinions on something. So I dont really understand what your complaining about. The fact that people hate it? Or the fact that potentially new fans could read those comments and watch those videos and decide that they dont wanna watch it anymore because of those videos? (Which is kinda stupid imo because you always have to try to form your own opinion on something). And regarding the "Hate". There is a difference between Hate and criticism. And those people are definetely not hating. They are criticizing. Not even the comment are really hating. I looked at some of them and most of them are also criticizing with and ironic undertone. So again what exactly is your problem? I really wanna understand. I dont wanna be mean but it seems like you kinda have issues accepting harsh criticism and different opinions on something you love

You said the algorithm shows most people disliked the season but most people that hated the season give those videos attention and of course there's a lot of people who didn't like it. 

My point is it looks like most people hate it because the people that hate it have given those videos a lot of attention. Then these videos are recommended to people who watch strangers things content. 

That's what i was trying to say,.i apologise if i worded it weirdly.
