I couldn't even come close to saying it as well as you just did. Hear hear.
And to add a smidge: there are those who break off from the larger groups to form smaller, more focused groups, groups without the animosity, and then they are criticized for dividing the fandom. Let us be clear: it is those people who are so full of bitterness that are dividing the fandom, not those who are trying to escape the bitterness. Individual opinions are great. Derogatory criticism based on someone's opinion because they do not share the same view is pathetic.
