Not liking the webtoon that you like doesn't make anyone media illiterate. It's called personal taste. I interpreted that story differently than you because I am me and not you. No amount of yapping and explanation changes that. I disliked something and i expressed it viscerally and honestly.
My cousin hates eggs(x webtoon). The smell(storytelling) makes her scrunch her nose and want to puke. Should I tell her she's stupid for not understanding how nutritious(imposed value/appeal) eggs are? Should I call her rude to farmers(authors) for being disgusted by the egg? Should I demand she try more recipes(read more chapters althouth i have read 3/4 chapters) before forming an opinion? Should i tell her to tone down her reaction because is being dissmissive? When there are other people who can understand her distaste for eggs and deeply relate to her. That doesn't make them shallow.
Some webtoon's rabid fans go way overboard to protect what they like. As if disliking it is a crime. To insult someone's intellect simply for not sharing your taste is beyond ridiculous!! Has anyone ever been attacked by unreasonable fans. How was the experience?
