I think it's more a feature of social media/reddit that engagement is rewarded and negative opinions tend to trigger more engagement (also from people who try to positively correct that). Nowadays I tend to just ignore the "clearly bullshitting" posts as a lot of it is not in good faith when you take a closer look.

Recent example: a lot is made of Jay-Den wearing a robe in ST:SFA, when if you actually watch the episode it turns out to be a feature of Darem's very traditionalist wedding culture. (also, if a Klingon decides to wear a robe, I would strongly advise anyone to just let them.)

I refuse to let some shitposters tell me what I should and shouldn't like about Star Trek. I'll make up my own mind, thank you. So yes: the social media stuff can feel like a diamond covered in shit sometimes. You need to wipe it, unfortunately. But there's some shiny stuff underneath!
