Does anyone else feel disillusioned with their fandom?

Really? Rise is irreverent and hyper and hardly SJW at all, unless you mean black April, but does anyone really care about April enough to rightly care what they do to her? Now she's a teenager, then she's a reporter, now she's a scientist, now she's black. Whatever. At least she is a decently fun character in Rise.

This does remind me that what most disillusions me about the fandom is the recent hatred against SJWs, as though their supposed annoyingness automatically invalidates all their arguments. I think the only people who really hate SJWs have a lot of privilege in some areas and aren't negatively impacted by the issues that SJWs care about.

I think the TMNT has always been about inclusiveness and diversity and "chosen family" and things that so called SJWs care about.

Pretty sure the 2012 series got rebooted because of slumping viewership and the need for new toys and shorter episodes, not to appeal to the supposed 5 year old SJWs. That said, Rise is funny in its own right but a complete travesty as a version of TMNT.
