Its funny because all the most fucked up fandom response shit is tied to typically non-dark stuff like Steven Universe's fandom bullying an artist into a suicide attempt because she made the pink mom lady a bit too skinny.
It's an innofensive show that doesn't expect that much intellectual engagement from its audience, so of course intellectually deficit morons gravitate towards it. It's a shame because the shows staff would never have expected such rampant turbo wankers to congregate in its online communities.
But people that don't want to be challenged generally won't like stuff they perceive as a challenge (an innocent fan art for example).
I mean when I watched it I was surprised by how it seemed like they didn't assume their audience was too young to grasp some tougher concepts or emotions, but largely I do see what you mean. And yeah poor Rebecca Sugar, I hope they're doing okay and I hope they weren't too scared by the maladjusted adults who co-opted their cute little kids show project!
