I really viscerally disliked Frodo until I realised he was a compassionate messiah, yay! But let's not go there.

I just wanted to say that I don't find young Bush charming at all - he was not just stupid, he was also greedy and taking money from integralists which I don't find all that naively cute. I get the need to de-monster Bush because the (e)vilification is not only over-the-top and silly but also rabid and blinding, but I don't think I can ever get over the fact that he's so disgustingly hungry and not working for anyone except himself and his lobby and using mind-controlling censoring tactics and stupid-ass mass-appealing rethorics to cover it.

Right.

Actually what I wanted to say is that I agree with there -are- trends as to what kind of people will like certain kinds of characters, I just think that, as with character analysis, they don't get exposed for the pleasure of knowledge, you know? Usually someone will use a perceived/twisted trend to back up their stand that all Snape fans are bad boys lovers or all Molly haters don't get along with their moms or all Harry lovers are tools of the Man or whatnot.
