I loved both the games and the show but I’m not so connected to the fandom. What is it they don’t like about her or the show?

They hate the fact they can't get an erection when trying to jerk it to the 14 year old character she portraits. Also Abby is butch but not lesbian, which they just cannot comprehend.

I didn’t believe you until I just googled and saw how mad the fans were about literally this. 🤮

Like, Ellie is practically your daughter in the game. What the actual fuck?!

No wonder Bella ignores fans comments online!

I'm willing to bet a lot of those people haven't ever had platonic love, and confuses how much the game makes you care about Ellie, with romantic love.

Either that or they're just fucked up and should crawl back into their hole of shame.

If you would like to loose even more faith in humanity you can look up what the "fandom" did to Laura Bailey who voices Abbey.

I’d like to direct you to Elizabeth from Boston’s Infinite 😅

The whole rule34 CGI genre was invented because of her

Ellie: “Hey, Abby, how did you get so jacked?”

Abby: “Every time I remember how much I hate Joel, I do one push up.”

Ellie: “Jesus Christ…”

I thought those people were already not playing the game. Are tourists pretending to be fans to stir shit?
