Kpop: Antis.

For whoever is not familiar: antis are those certain people who hate a group and its member. No, I've no idea why.

Case in point: an SNSD anti.
"You’re talking about Tiffany aren’t you. Yep I hate that bitch.
XXXXX is a great singer, she surely looks better than Taeyeon and is taller!"

...what the hell? No, really, this doesn't make any sense to me. You're perfectly within your rights to not like a certain group's music and all, but the members themselves?
1. You have not met them, therefore you do not know them.
2. See number one.

The second sentence is opinion, yes. The second half of it confounds me- it's all well and good if your idea of beauty has height in it, but it definitely shouldn't be a determining factor in hating someone you have only seen third- or fourth-hand.

"Yep I hate that bitch." You don't know her...that's pretty much it.

I just don't understand antis.

Disclaimer: this is my confused response to one anti. I am by no means addressing all of the antis in the world, and this is entirely my opinion.
