That's just lemmy being too god damn stupid to differentiate between "this is my preference" and "this is bad", as usual.
"I don't like dragons": preference.
"I don't like Mary Sue characters": bad writing.
what about „I like bad dragons“?
"I like naughty dragons" pretty sure those exists.
My brother in Christ, that's not just lemmy. That's the whole god damned world.
That's not Lemmy. That's people
I'm used to a bit of a better caliber of people...from reddit, which is sad
To be fair the OP question says both "bad writing tropes" and "[that] you hate", so subjective answers were inevitable.
I guess it should have just not said "bad", since that implies an objective standard.
That’s just you arbitrarily putting dragons and mary sues into different bins
