Before anyone ever tries to make the false connection, this is not about any YouTubers. Now…Hater is a term used to refer to an individual who expresses contempt for a person, place, or thing for no reason other than jealousy or envy. My assertion is that this term is often used as an ad hominem attack to change the conversation from one about the message to discussing the messenger. It is problematic because it silences the ability for the community to discuss anything of value or contrary to popular opinion.
