Like, I get genuinely wound up by someone conflating "I dislike this thing" with "this thing is bad." I have no idea why or where that comes from originally. I know it's been made worse in recent years by readers doing that to my books, but it's always been there, and it just pisses me off to no end.
I'd just like to know why I get so up in arms about that, I guess.
There's some where I can track back to "ah, this is a trauma response" (my own "no, it's not BAD, you just don't LIKE IT" is one of those exaggerated defensive responses to Bad Times In The Past) but there's others where it's just
where did this come from, why do you bother me so much, what is this even doing here, I don't remember ordering this
Yeah absolutely, exactly that. It's like "Okay, but why am I responding to this like it's a trauma trigger when I cannot even begin to imagine how this could have been traumatizing, let alone remember why it's a trigger for me."
Although now that I've thought about this specific one, I think it comes down to trauma from being bullied for liking the 'wrong thing' in the past. But still, it's hard when like I can't specifically point to anything.
