Nimajnebnoj, you are correct in every regard.

Attacking Derpy has become a flame baiting goldmine for trolls wanting to enrage fan of FiM. You see images uploaded on derpibooru and threads started on /mlp/ for the sole purpose of telling everyone how much they hate Derpy because she is too popular or has too many fans. It's the exact same type of argument anti-bronies use when they say the hate Friendship is Magic and everyone who enjoys it. Yet how many bronies do we see jumping to their defense?

I don't know. Maybe some people are too naive to recognize flame baiting when they see it. Here's a good rule of thumb: If someone enters a forum dedicated to a topic and says they hate said topic and all its fans because its too popular, they're flamebaiting. And vehemently defending everything they say under the guise of staying neutral won't make their non-argument make any more sense. It just makes it look like you're buying into their trolling, hook, line and sinker.
