TV & Film What are the most cancerous fandoms you have ever seen?

fookin laser sights
you too will stop worrying about grenades
I was mounted and loaded when nobody else was
fuze should stop killing the hostage

Alright, I think I finally finished my big list. Any other fandoms that people want to offer up? I might have forgotten one or two.

The Nintendo manchildren? Although they aren't really a fandom, and aren't really clingy.
Sonic, even though they've calmed down (similar to bronies) I still see pretty cringy sonic shit everywhere I go.

Also there's a minion fanbase.

Dear Deers

How could I have forgotten Sonic? And Minions are everywhere. It's a virus—a marketing scheme. Can it really be considered a "fandom"?
 
I get the feeling there are just some similarities about those games or shows that just make them susceptible to certain kinds of fans.

I don't really look into it, and I really don't have a good explanation for it either, just that the things with the most notorious fandoms must have a somewhat similar theme or style to them. It could be pure speculation on my part, who knows. But I feel like one day we're going to get to the point where we see a certain piece of popular content and everyone's going to be like, "yep there's going to be a crappy fandom for this soon."

A different way I've thought about it, and sort of a question for the interested - what kind of games or shows would absolutely surprise you if a 'cancerous' fandom decided to take root in them?
Like if you went on an art cruise one day and you suddenly saw lots of content that was like "yo here's my cringy fan art or character" on something you enjoyed, would it make you go "wait, is this really happening right now?"

Siege and Bioshock would be huge surprises. Bioshock is for people who want to live Ayn Rand's wet dream three times. Siege is for people who are autistic and obsess over all the details.



...like me.

I did go "yep, this is going to be a shitty fanbase" when bendy and the ink machine. Indie horror games that rely on things tied to people's childhood to scare people. Five nights at Freddy's with the animatronics and bendy and the ink machine with the cartoon characters. Tattletail with the furbies and...
...
...
...
Some other fourth thing.
 
Lord 'Chanka deserves a cancerous fandom. Someone kill me already.

I kind of enjoy asmr sometimes, especially when I'm suffering from writers block when I'm like, super tired but I can't fall asleep. But there's some weird shit out there.
 
I have seen one truly destructive fan base. It has destroyed thousands of families and absorbed millions of unsuspecting souls. We call them...

...ROBLOX Die Hards.
 
I think i have two fandoms we can all agree are collective disgusting human garbage

Columbine and the Turner Diaries
End of discussion

Bendy and the Ink Machine is actually good to be honest. Unlike FNaF and Tattletail it tries to be scary and tell a good story at the same time.
 
And here's my list

inhales

FNaF - robot x robot porn, need I say more?
Undertale - Goat x skeleton porn, do I really need to explain?
Tattletail - Can't process information, too cancerous
Bendy and the Ink Machine - The game is good, but you know the fandom is cringe y when they draw r34 of a damned ink demon and a wolf(?) replica of goofy getting it on (if you don't get it, best to not know). And let's not forget those who draw OCs and then say that they're "Bendy's girl(boy)friend".
MLP - To be honest, this fandom has gotten better over the years but it's worth mentioning.

exhales

That's it.

...what? I looked up the Turner Diaries a few seconds ago, and I wished I hadn't. The United States seriously needs to reform its mental healthcare system.

Don't forget that they are robots haunted by the souls of children.
