A fandomite is someone fully engrossed in
Fandom culture, to the point of considering their
fandom activities "activism"; very often disregarding actual problems even in their own
fandom communities, and prioritizing their comfort and fun before anything else.
Classic examples of fandomite behaviour is rampant homonationalism; silencing others based on '
fandom etiquette' or similar reasons when their community is criticised for one reason or another; finding their entertainment activities inherently morally correct, solely on the basis of it being fandom content; protecting any kind of content on the name of 'freedom of speech', no matter if it is hateful or not; among others.
"They are such a fandomite. I said I didn't
like AO3 and they said I wasn't grateful for the gift it is upon mankind, and surely I do not remember how trying the times before it existed were for them,
fandom elders. When I told them I didn't like it because of it allowing racist and other hateful
content in it, they said I am against freedom of speech."
