I didn't even say Fluttermac was canon, I realized that it was a crack pairing. I said about the shipping war that happened before the Hearts and Hooves episode, which it led the writers to do "Putting your Hoof Down" (which it was released 2 weeks after Hearts and Hooves Day last year) to end Fluttershy's innocence in the show, leading to have haters like you.

I doubt that Fluttershy gets hated because she became assertive to everypony in PyHD after learning from Iron Will. As in, not blaming Iron Will and claiming that he is not a villain, and putting the hate and rage on Fluttershy instead.
