So okay, say that you hate something. You know some people who have that same thought as you (at least in dA). There's numerous enough for you to make an association for it. And thus, you make a group "Anti (insert name here)".

And then... What will you do?

-> Post hateful images about that thing and encourages your members to do so
-> A step up of the above - flame any pic in dA that goes along with that thing you hate, or the people who likes that thing you hate
-> A variant of the above - post hate journals i.e journals about why you hate something, and probably feature some opinions from your members
-> all of the above

Now going to my rant: Will any sane people do any of the above? Answer: not likely (you know who you are). They're more likely to try avoiding that.

And then... What? What can they do as an "anti" group? Heck, what is the whole point of making one if you know you cannot do any of the above? -> Voicing opinions? Through what?

Discuss.

So true. Anti-groups for actual purposes like anti-bullying, anti-animal abuse, all those are perfectly fine because these people are actually making a moral affect, but Anti-groups for minor and 'dumb' purposes like for a series or an ideology, just show that these people are 'butthurt'. Anti-groups think they are actually making a 'big change' are anti-groups when it's just a place for people to unleash their hatred. I mean, what's the point? We get it, people are upset, but if people don't have the same opinions as anti-groups for something very small that doesn't matter, then there's nothing you can do and I hope the anti...whatever people will have the same attitude.
