(noun)
/ɑ r stæn/
Definition:
A Respectful Stan — a fan who supports an artist, creator, or public figure with genuine admiration while respecting their boundaries, privacy, and humanity.
Unlike obsessive or intrusive fandom behavior, an R-Stan believes that true support includes empathy, consent, and kindness. Being an R-Stan means celebrating someone’s work, not controlling their life.
Origin:
Coined by a fan who wanted to redefine what it means to support someone, after noticing how often the term fan is used for people who act disrespectfully toward artists.
The “R” stands for Respectful.

Get the R-stanmug. "Memes Op Did Not Like"
A Reddit community which is SUPPOSED to be used to make fun of a person getting mad about a meme because they don't find it funny or because it offends them.
However, it's more or less become a very rare example of an extreme-right echo chamber on the notoriously extreme-left shithole that is Reddit, and virtually nothing else. This has lead to lot of controversy - because of the non-stop back-and-forth between another sub that is meant to be its exact opposite, as well as the fact that it's a right-wing community on an extreme-left website, every post becomes a dumpster fire.

r/memesopdidnotlike was a good idea ruined by the fact that people can and will make everything political.
