Help Me Understand

Help me understand why people are not allowed to dislike idol groups or songs? I see a lot of posts/comments about people calling others crazy for NOT liking, for example, EXO or BTS (especially BTS). 

When has that become a crime? 

"How can they not like BTS?!"

Because they don't have to? 

This isn't a post ting on BTS; they're just the group I've seen the most of this type of stuff with. 

Those who don't like groups or songs are called crazy, delusional, deaf, dumb, etc all because of a personal preference. 

Personally, I hate the country genre. Cannot stand it. I've tried, but after a few minutes I want to bash my head in. 

Does that make me crazy? 

Back when I said I didn't like the DNA comeback, the immediate response was "Are you deaf?" The answer is no, I'm not, I just don't like it. 

Not every song any group puts out is going to be liked/loved by everyone, yet so many cannot understand or grasp that concept. I can't use a kpop band as a reference here, so I'll use my all-time favorite band ever:  Slipknot. They're a metal group  (so don't go searching them up if you're not into that because you might be scarred for life), and while I love them to bits, been to countless concerts of theirs, have their logo tattooed on my arm, I do not like every song that have made. 

Once again, am I crazy for disliking something that my favorite band made? 

According to some people, yes. 

Going along with the crazy/delusional trend, it is also okay for groups/individual idols to lose. 

For example, I was watching Hit the Stage performances a little while ago, specifically U-Kwon's Joker performance, and quite a few comments were bashing him, saying Ten should have won. (NOT TING ON NCT/TEN, JUST AN OPINION.)

Honestly, U-Kwon's performance moved me more than Ten's did. The expressions and movements were spot-on, and I was impressed. Yet because my opinion was different, I'm delusional. 

So will someone PLEASE explain to me why nobody can have differing opinions, and if you do, you're crazy? 

Because I really don't get it.

E x a c t l y. THIS RIGHT HERE*** is what people should understand not everyone is going to have the same taste in clothes/food/music/movies etc. As you. And it doesn't mean you should bash them for that honestly. People get way way waaaaayyyy attached. Support and love your idols enough but keep a boundary for yours and others sake.

Omg PREACH!!! I get bashed just for saying that I dislike Blood, Sweat and Tears, and when people asked me if I liked DNA (which I don't) I couldn't even answer since I had a feeling that it's not gonna end well -_- I used to like BTS a lot and I still do, but music is still where the point stands for me. If I don't like their current songs, then I wouldn't be watching them (let's say perf.) coz well, I don't like the song. And since I haven't been liking their songs for quite a while, I haven't been watching them at all or scarcely. It only makes it worse that coincidentally, I like almost every song EXO makes. Some people then judge me and saying I'm a fake fan, well, maybe I am -_- if not liking a song or two makes me one, then bish I am.
