True that, but a key reason people complain about something they like is that they want it to get “better”. For a lot of people, MLP:FiM “getting better” would require so much erasure of events that it’d be hard for anyone to have considered the show as a whole worth it. Basically DHX is gonna keep throwing mud at the wall in hopes that what they’re doing isn’t going to utterly destroy the franchise’s reputation.
Nobody’s an idiot based on what they like to watch. It mostly comes down to environment and personality. There are those who like this show because it feels like an escapism from tough reality, and don’t take any criticism towards it kindly, then there are those that treat every minute detail super seriously, and can’t stand the thought that people can be casual viewers of it. You’re never going to please everyone, but the fact that this fandom got as big as it did is still something to admire, but if you’re weak enough to let other people’s negativity of the show ruin the experience for you, I ask with no sarcasm that you seek help.
I guess because there’s so much wrong with Starlight on a surface level that it’s near-impossible to like her as a whole (most of her fans rely on headcanons, fan fictions or self-booping memes to get total satisfaction from her). Because of this, many of the original fans who care 100% about the show see any sort of support for her, ironic or serious, as some sort of trolling mechanism that’s going to cause the fandom to crumble to bits in the near future.
The thing is you can never please everyone, but in its heyday, MLP:FiM got pretty darn close.
A lot of the negative EQD comments (like the ones on Mirror Magic) don’t seem to give any indication that these people like the show either.

The negative comments ruined my fun for me. They remind me that what I’m watching is objectively terrible, and that I’m an idiot for enjoying it.

Seriously, you won’t believe how many users I’ve seen here that call anyone who likes Starlight an ass-kisser.

They’ve adopted a Captain Jack Harkness mindset- to be given Hell, but it’ll never really hurt them.

Using a 19th century camera to take photos of different flat shades of grey and putting 20-30 of them in a mosaic to make a hilarious joke and post it on the WalMart Facebook page.

It keeps getting harder and harder to believe that there are fans who can have serious opinions on Starlight, whether she’s the best thing to ever happen to the show or a cancer that’s killing it. She’s middle of the road for me, but for goodness sake you guys should just make peace sometime.

Johnny Appleseed was a farmer who went all around the Midwest [of America] planting orchards worth of apple trees for most of his life. Sure he’d be an inspiration to you.
