Did you just suggest that anyone who claims to dislike the Beatles is lying just to be difficult? Believe it or not it is actually possible to dislike things, even critically acclaimed popular things, beyond the point of indifference. Honestly your statement is what sounds like pure contrarianism meant to stir up drama lol
No, I'm claiming hating the Beatles is a choice. Hate is active. People who dislike things don't waste their time thinking about how much they dislike them and telling people proudly how much they dislike them, they just move on.
In fact, I'm pretty luke-warm on the Beatles as a whole (though I can certainly appreciate their songwriting and understand their massive popularity). The point is hatred is its own kind of fandom, as both camps center around the thing. I don't bring up the Beatles because I don't have many opinions on them; that's vastly more passive than this person proudly declaring their dislike for Popular Thing™
Doing literally anything besides just existing and breathing the air each day is "a choice". That doesn't mean people only do things just to annoy you...
disliking =/= hating
i dislike most rap music, which means i don't actively look for that genre of music to listen to it, but i won't burst into flames if a friend of mine puts some rap in the queue at the party, and i won't complain about it (unless they've been hogging the queue with non stop 3h of rap, then i will complain)
i hate dishonesty and manipulation, if i spot it i'll instantly feel a surge of intense negative emotions and a strong repulsion to whoever was dishonest or manipulative (relative to the offence of course, lying about eating the snack i was saving vs lying about idk being faithful don't prompt the same reaction)
i don't think you can really hate any genre of music or particular band, as the other person said, proclaiming yourself a "hater" of a popular genre or group is just contrarianism for contrarianism's sake, 5 years down the line it'll stop being cool to hate on that music and that's when you stop "hating" them
