See, I enjoy the psychology of that part too. Trying to peak behind the curtain and figure out what they're doing, how they're trying to skew it, and most importantly
why... There's plenty of interest there for me. I think the issue many have is separating their emotions from it maybe? A lot about who they "like" or don't and (seemingly) endless comments on the "morality" of people who should support someone like bear. I don't like Bear as a person. But I adore the little bugger as a TV character
