Hee, yeah, Tumblr does rather change one's style...!
I waffled about calling it "hate"-fandom for just what you said, that hate can mean intolerance and this is something much lighter. But "critical-fanning" didn't work either, because one can critically analyze squee, too; and talking about one's irrational emotional dislike for something is part of "hate"-fanning, too. And I don't want to call it "negative-fanning" when the fanning itself can be a positive experience...will find some term eventually!
