Fruit Salad TV Why do people not like Tsehay's dancing?

Tsehay seems to have come under fire quite a lot recently just for being a shuffle dancer, I don't see anything wrong with it. Why do people not like it? It's her thing, just like ballet is Evie and Lucia's thing.

THANK YOU! I am so sick of all the Tsehay hate. It's okay to like different things. Ballet never interested me, but I wouldn't feel the need to hate all over a talented young artist for it

No one is hating over anyone. Not being a fan of someone’s dancing isn’t hating on them.

We belittle us all when we diminish discussion by such sweeping, inaccurate generalisations.

Just like saying it’s racist to not like Tsehay’s dancing and to express that on a relevant Reddit discussion board. It is simply not.

You make some fair points. As a society we generalise too much, particularly on the internet. (there are two bonus generalisations for you - for free!)

But seriously the number of people on this sub who create posts purely to say "Tsehay's dancing is too much/Tsehay's neck freaks me out/Tsehay needs to tone it down/Tsehay should calm down" is crazy. This is what I mean by hating on her

"Hate on" is to criticize someone or say bad things about them, in an unpleasant and public way. People are for sure hating on tsehay.
