(I wasn't sure whether this fits more into /s/TellPoalor /s/ShowerThoughts. +edit: or /s/Philosophy.)


  • Just because I am a fan of a person (e.g. online video bloggers), doesn't imply I agree on all of their viewpoints.
  • And just because I dislike someone, doesn't mean I disagree on all of their viewpoints.
    • E.g. Although I despise Bbb23, we both agree that argumentum ad populum doesn't necessarily justify something.
  • Just because I like an entity (company, online video maker), doesn't necessarily mean I dislike its competitor.
    • E.g. Just because I like Sony cameras, doesn't mean I dislike those by Panasonic (competitor). I like both .
    • Also, competition is better for the market than monopoly, because monopolies or near-monopoliey can rip customers off as much as they like (e.g. YouTube removing functionality).

If you know more examples, please comment.

Just because I dislike someone, doesn't mean they shouldn't get my support to be able to say what they want to say.
