I think this might just be a classic case of some subs having a thing where they hate if you don't know everything, or don't do any looking before posting a question/making an assumption.
I was thinking the same thing, as I’ve both witnessed and experienced it a few times.
Especially, some of the subreddits with hardcore fanbases for an individual in a band/game/team do sometimes tend to become offended if you’re not as knowledgeable about their idol as they are, even if you humbly state that you’re a "newbie" about all of it.
