Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

No, not fans, psychopaths threatened the son.
I feel like articles like this promote more psychopaths. If they know that their threats are working and effecting their target they are going to keep doing it.
You can be both
No, fan is correct. We just forget it stands for "fanatic".
Goodbye supposedly gradually derped off from 'god be with you' and that feels pretty different to me even when used for the same purpose
Fan was originally short for fanatic, but language changes over time and now it means someone who likes something or someone. These "people" do not like, they hate. They are not fans, they are fanatics. And even that term feels too kind.
You can't deny their personhood, just because they're horrible people.
Oh sure they're people. Otherwise there'd be no legal basis for jailing them and throwing the key away, so that's an important aspect.
