Like sometimes it just looks like people are hating on the guy for engaging with media in a way they don’t like.
Specifically, he’s engaging the public about media in ways they don’t like. Nobody would give a shit if he just did it with friends or whatever. Turns out being a public facing “um, actually…” guy about fictional bs isn’t a very popular role. Big shocker there.
You’re missing the point. He’s a celebrity that is mostly known for doing a thing most people find annoying. He’s gonna get shit for that because most people don’t like it. That’s all there is to it. Whether he’s “right” or they’re “wrong” doesn’t matter.
I agree about right or wrong not mattering, what I’m saying is that it’s only annoying if being reminded that orbital mechanics doesn’t work like that is akin to being told for the first time that Santa isn’t real.

And? Is there actually anything wrong with it? Is the media he’s talking about so shit that an um ackshually is enough to knock it over for people?

You clearly don’t mind it. Many others clearly do. Turns out what people are annoyed by is incredibly subjective.
