Me: You don’t have to like every part of something to be a fan, you can enjoy as much or as little as you want.
Someone: Gen 1 is the only good gen
Me:
but gen 1 IS the only good gen
i think the fundamental difference between the “you dont have to like every aspect of the thing youre a fan of” and “gen 1 is the best” is that the latter comes with an air of pretentiousness and genwunners generally try to make people feel inferior because they prefer something other than the glithchy broken and unbalanced game.
basically, nobody hates genwunners because they like gen 1, people hate genwunners because theyre the vegans of pokemon.
