When the McGregor fan base keep using the phrase "Haters gonna hate" to justify whatever actions of his that might be called in to question is tantamount to saying that standards of common sense and decency don't apply to McGregor and that no matter what McGregor do.
No matter how foolish and reprehensible, MMA fans are not allowed to reprimand McGregor for that action because that makes them a "hater" and you're simply "hating" out of jealousy.
The overabundance of the word "Hater" word in this day and age just one example of how the McGregor fan base are being lead down a dangerous path of unprecedented ignorance, apathy and vanity just like McGregor.
Calling someone a "hater" because they said some criticism in this instance about McGregor makes the member of the McGregor fan base look ignorant or stupid for giving negative feedback, basically dismissing an argument without addressing it by using a personal insult.
