I don’t think we need to force people to love everything, but that makes topics like https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/the-nope-response-on-social-media/1990 more relevant, now it’s like a cringe culture but with living organisms instead of people, I have nothing against thoughtful posts of why people get some reactions, but I can’t stand calling names for the sake of it (and we get enough of it e.g. on facebook, where people hate everything alive).
