  • My best guess? It branches from the need that everyone has to want to stand out. People will deliberately go out of their way to do something different (usually having a negative opinion on something popular) in order to be unique in some way. There's nothing wrong with that, but it angers others due to the negativity. Basically, I think it's just human nature.
