The Utena fandom is like a safe haven away from The-Curtains-Are-Just-Blue anti-intelectual type "Media Consumers" who hate media analysis because they've never had an independent thought in their life and disregard the work that comes into making a film, a show or writing a book since to them art is just "Content". It's like the "flipping burgers" argument but for art. They think the creators, the crew working at these things are just doing whatever the fuck thoughtlessly instead of bringing their creativity, knowledge, skills and perspective into their work. They make fun of those who study, who write, who find meaning where they can't see it, who work at improving at a skill or a craft while they just spend their time Consuming, because they can't stand how the rest of the world isn't ignorant like them and it makes them feel insecure about themselves.
